When you look at his individual performance I don t know if we have ever raised an animal that hit all the marks like he did. When you study his pedigree you will fi nd that his sire is a maternal brother to 5L Bourne that has done so well for the 5L program. His Dam produced the 2nd high selling bull in last year s sale going to Westphal Red Angus in Grass Range MT. His fi rst calf crop in this offering has performed very well from weaning to yearling and carcass as well. His picture was taken 10 days prior to pulling him from cows. We had put him in with 57 head of wet two year olds with heifer calves and he had settled over 50 of them. His only fl aw was when we pulled bulls this summer and he thought he could pick a fi ght with Legend It didn t end well with his hind leg broke above the hock. We have him at World West Sires trying to collect semen on him. Progeny will be limited in the future due to the semen that we have on hand. 6 Milk Creek Reds Bull Sale Catalog and video online at
