Herd sires
K 64H Ribstone Lad 157KK 64H Ribstone Lad 157K

157K is a 12-trait, proven industry leader.
An American Hereford Assn. 12-trait leader, 157K is one of the top all-around bull in the breed. His milk figures (along with those of all of his super feminine daughters) keep increasing. K daughters have perfect udder conformation and are moderate sized. He throws red eye pigment. His calves' dispositions are tremendous. His sons are superior in performance and makeup, and their carcass scans are both hugely impressive and noticed by America's breeders...he's working in their herds, too. His birth weight is breed average where he's been used in horned and polled herds.We're using 3 sons both naturally and AI and have purchased and used 2 Canadian herd sires out of 157K granddaughters.  (Semen available on 157K.)






CJH L1 Domino 0041 CJH L1 Domino 0041
0041 is a super breeding bull. We bought as a mature sire from Dick Drake. He sires superior thickness, tons of red eye pigment, and has that certain stamp, that "look" we demand. His sons have that "next step" look in both performance and carcass. His daughters have fantastic udders, are moderate sized cows, and exactly what we're looking for. Plus, his carcass numbers are finally doing him justice. His herd sire son 40U was sold to Doenz's in Canada and will replace 0041. 
(Semen available on 0041. His semen is qualified for export to Canada.)

 

 




GH Adams Neon Tracker ET 521T

 

GH Adams Neon Tracker RT 521T

Tracker 's dam is one of the best in the breed with a very super udder structure. The bull has done a super job here. He out-breeds himself. His sons and daughters are thick with terrific muscle pattern and have excellent overall performance. Actually, his offspring's performance is close to what 157K does - and that's something. Very eye appealing, as well. He stamps his calves.

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

R 157K North Star 29P

29P sires pigment, thickness, and more than adequate size. His females look to be his best addition. We call him the maternal machine. We bought 29P back from customer Ron Struempler and have been thrilled with him. So was Ron.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


LCI BD 31R Stanmore 327U

We purchased 327U as a Canadian out-cross. His sire, 31R, is one of the thickest, best-dispositioned bulls in Lilybrook's herd in Canada. With light birth weight and extremely high performance, 327U is clicking here. His carcass figures are in the elite group.

 

 


 









 R 157K North Star 54U

54U is our standout 157K son from our 2009 Denver Carload. We sold him to CK Ranch and retained an interest. His mother is one of our best older cows with a terrific udder. She's still sound at 11 years of age. A light birth weight bull, 54U will sire explosive growth. His Rib Eye and Marbling rank in the elite group. His first calves indexed 109 at weaning. CK thought so much of him they put his steers on test at Art & Doug Olsen's.












Bar JZ Striker 093U

We purchased Striker in 2009 on the merit of his mother. Plus, his sire was a very popular Rib Eye sire. 093U offers extreme light birth weight. His first calves indexed at 96 for birth weight and 106 for weaning weight. The bull offers the best of polled and horned genetics. His sons and daughters have beautiful eye appeal, loads of length, and tons of eye pigment. You notice them. And they perform. His calf in our 2011 carload garnered a lot of attention from polled and horned breeders.

 

 

 

 


 



Bar JZ Sawyer 080U

 Also bought from Zilverbergs in 2009 and used behind AI on heifers.

 

 

 

 











JNHR Silver Standard 723U


We purchased at Calgary in 2010 from JoNomn/Norm Parrent. And we really like him. 723U is super thick, has terrific markings, and a great disposition. He's a cow-calf man's dream. You will appreciate his sale offering.


















  FA 71S Britisher 102W

We bought 102W in 2010 from Darryl Anderson and he has worked terrific on our cows. We're anxious to see what our customers think - we are very high on 102W.













CL 1 Domino 955W


We own a semen interest in this tremendous young sire purchased in the 2010 Cooper sale by Venhuizen, Hoffman, and W4. Additional semen packages were auctioned off at the 2011 National Western Stock Show for $69,000.
Muscle, performance, carcass, maternal - 955W scores high on all, and he just keeps getting better. 955W shows, he sires, and his calves are thick, correct,
and top performing.










 CL 1 Domino 0141 1ET

We were fortunate to purchase 0141 March 2011 with Debters and Hedrick. We used him naturally and AI this summer and sent him on down to Georgia. He's grown, bred up very well, and has impressed everyone with his great disposition, the way he carries himself, and his conformation. We can't wait to see his first set of calves next spring.
