genetic program

Our program is based on advancing genetics of the Angus breed to the highest levels.

FINK ERICA 5128
Calved: 1-27-1995 Cow 12501771

5128 was a feature lot of the 2003 Beartooth Production Sale. She is owned with Sunny Valley Farm along with her son BT Notch 2M, the top-selling bull in Montana in spring 2003. 2M looks to soon be widely publicized as his spring 2004 calf crop is one of the best sire groups at Timberidge Ranch, Mineral Point, Wisconsin. A high-volume, heavy-milking daughter of EXT, 5128 ranks in the top 1% for WW and YW, while maintaining positive EPDs for % IMF and RE. 5128 posts a weaning ratio of 4 at 110, yearling ratio of $ at 105, and an ultrasound RE ratio of 4
at 109.

5128 was flushed with great success to the $255,000 half interest GAR Integrity. Heifer and bull pregnancies due March 2005.

CONNEALY 6807 647
Calved: 2-27-1993 Cow #12015464

Connealy 6807 647 is our new donor and a key piece to our developing genetic base. This tremendous 6807 daughter maintains 5 calves at 110 WR and 5 calves at a 117 YWT ratio. She also ranks in the top 1% for WW EPD and YW EPD. 647’s daughter by SVF Bandolier recently sold for $20,000 for one-half interest in the past Sunny Valley Farm Production Sale. 647 has generated over $200,000 in progeny sales across the country. 647 is currently in our donor pen and will be flushed to SVF Bandolier. Please feel free to call about our progress with 647. Owned with Knoll Crest Farm, VA, and Brickville Angus, IL.

Circle A Blackcap 9240
Calved: 2-18-1999 Cow 13269581

One of the exciting new additions for our donor pen, 9240 was our selection along with Winn Farms, MI, and Sunny Valley Farm LLC, IL in the 2004 Lazy H Dispersion. Her combination of power, pedigree, and carcass merit made her our pick of that entire offering. 9240 ranks in the top 2% for YWT EPD, top 3% for WW EPD, and top 4% for REA and IMF EPD. This awesome daughter of SVF 216 LTD is out of Circle A Blackcap 4040, an EXT daughter that records IMF 9 at 120 and REA 9 at 107. 9240 currently records WR 2 at 110 and YR 1 at 186.

9240 is currently at Sunny Valley Farm LLC and was flushed successfully to GAR Integrity for February 2005 calves. We could not be more excited about her future at Timberline Angus.

SVF Primrose Lady 127L
Calved: 3-20-2002 Cow 14159193

127L was our pick of the 2002 Sunny Valley Farm Sale. She is a member of one of the most impressive and uniform flushes ever at SVF. 127L is by far the most powerful daughter of SVF Primrose Lady 194H and is thought by many to be one of the best young cows in the breed. If that is not enough, she supports a fault-free udder, plus the backing of her granddam SVF Primrose Lady 9446, the famous mother of SVF Bandolier whose progeny and semen continue to prove their worth by commanding the highest premium wherever they are sold. 127L’s full sister, now a feature donor at Ray-Mar Farms in California, sold for $14,500. Another full sister sold privately for $16,000 half interest.

127L ranks in the top 2% for WW, top 4% for milk and YW EPD, and top 15% for IMF and RE EPDs. We expect 127L to lead us into the future and produce the kind of cattle that will continue to excel in all phases of beef production. 127L’s natural bull calf by 1407 will soon prove her stature in the breed by being one of the highest ratio and scanning calves of the 2004 Timberline calf crop.

127L will be open through spring 2005. Our plans are to flush her to GAR Integrity, 1407, H141, and Future Direction. Integrity pregnancies are due spring 2005.
