• If you are looking for that outcross heifer bull prospect, you are in the right place. St Ignatius is
not just a heifer bull, here is a bull that can be bred to the entire cow herd. It’s not often that you
find a bull that ranks in the top 14% of the breed for CED and the top 12% for BW, then goes on to
a 1312 pound yearling weight. When you combine St. Ignatius’ top 16% ST with the Lakota cow
family, you can be sure of quality replacements. Just think of the options this will afford you. You
can keep them yourself to improve the genetic merit of your herd or market them in the stupen-
dous replacement market that is on the near horizon. If you are looking to increase the loin in you
cattle Ignatius can help you there as well with a 104 REA ratio that gives him a top 17% REA EPD.

• Look at the muscle on this guy! If you are looking for a bull to add dimension, not to mention
extra length, CONQUISTADOR can do it for you. It’s no wonder that he ranks in the top 25% of
the breed on REA. Unlike many big loin bulls out there he absolutely excels at IMF as well with an
incredible 122 ratio that helps him to earn a MB EPD in the top 4% of the breed. This stud started
out of the gate slow with a very moderate birth weight, and then he put the hammer down to obtain
a 106 ratio for both weaning and yearling weight. If I were trying to increase my pay weight without
increasing birth weight, I would take this guy home with me. The dam that you will be incorporat-
ing into your herd with this bull is doing an outstanding job for us with progeny ratios of 104 ww,
1003 yw, 128 IMF and 105 REA.

• One look at this really good bull’s EPD line and it is easy to see where we came up with the
name Balanced. Even though he starts out with a CED that ranks in the top 14% of the breed, he
skyrockets to a top 12% WW and 6% YW. His actual performance spread is balanced as well
starting with a very moderate birth weight and continuing on to ratios of 102 ww and 107 yw. if you
want to build a super set of replacements that are fertile, easy calving and long lived, you had bet-
ter tie into this bull and utilize his top 21% HPG, 2% CEM and 28% ST. This guy is a power house
when it comes to carcass performance as well. If you market on the grid he can help you earn
those valued premiums with his top 7% MB and 7% CW combined with a 115 ratio on one of the
largest Rib Eye Areas in the sale.
