TWENTY TWENTY-FIVE
SIRE DIRECTORY
Greetings,
It is with great excitement and pride that we bring you the fifth edition of the American Maine-Anjou Sire Directory. The MaineAnjou breed has proven itself to be one of the hottest breeds in the industry, in great part to the tremendous cattle our breeders are producing.
As you flip through the pages you will see bulls that can make a huge difference in one generation, when used in any scenario. The sire directory is a great platform giving our breeders the ability to showcase their bulls in a single source. The line-up is an outstanding set of beef bulls that display the many breeding options available for you regardless of your breeding goals.
Hopefully you will notice the grouping of the bulls that can address your needs for Fullbloods, Purebreds, High Maine, Maine Angus and MaineTainer genetics that will boost your program to the next level. We also provided the AMAA Breed Classification Upgrading Chart and some frequently asked questions about our programs.
We encourage you to call the breeders and owners of this outstanding set of MaineAnjou Bulls and find out how these sires can work for you. Please let us know if we can help you in any way!
Sincerely,
Blake Nelson
Executive Vice President
In recent years, it seems as though MaineAnjou breeders, and cattle enthusiasts alike, have been on a quest to progress and make available new and forward-thinking genetics. The creation and progression of the Maine Angus program brought about the thoughts of what’s next and begged the question, “How do I keep my Maine Angus, a Maine Angus?” Promotion of new yearling AI sires within the Maine Angus distinction are proof that cattlemen and women are after making the next generation as exciting and versatile for all those that want to breed MaineAnjou genetics. It goes without saying, the Fullblood genetics maintain the root of our breed and are still being progressed by both longtime and young breeders to create modern and profitable cattle.
All of this leads us to what you will find within the pages of the 2025 Maine-Anjou Sire Directory. This book not only serves as a reference to the active progression of Maine-Anjou breeders to create and mate cattle better than the previous generation, but to also recognize those cattlemen that have actively gone out and searched for cattle that are both intriguing and exciting in pedigree.
We hope this book will help those who are searching for Maine-Anjou genetics – at any level – to find, select, and implement the cattle best fit for their operations. It is exciting to see the progress and constant pursuit to move the Maine-Anjou breed forward. The aggressive push to make cattle better shows throughout the pages of the 2025 Sire Directory. It gives those who are seeking something new and exciting – from a breed that has always been committed to quality and versatility – something to turn to.
Sincerely,
Josh Cribbs
Director of Promotion & Breed Advancement

Check out this pedigree. Sired by DATA BANK and out of a full sister to MAFIA - we can’t make them any hotter and more right for the times. BBR JUSTIFIED is so impressive in terms of balance and power, and sets down on a huge foot. When set into motion, he will grab your attention. He hits the surface with authority and flexibility that are hard to replicate. He is stout featured and soft middled, with dense, coal black hair. To say we are excited about this purebred bull and his future progeny would be an understatement, and we look forward to his future impact.

Purebred Maine bulls are in high demand today. What separates the elite are those that are derived from proven donor cows. GAME ON is just that and is proving himself an elite breeding bull. His dam, BK-JFR Zanella 227, has produced heifer calves that have averaged $30,000 that have went on staked claim to multiple Denver Champion females and a Junior National Champion female - ALL of which have become elite producing donor females! Recently 15 head of GAME ON heifer calves averaged $15,500 in the Buck Cattle Company Spring Edition sale with high sellers of $55,000 and $48,000 respectively. A red gene carrier that can produce the elite kind that will be in demand when it matters.

DATA BANK quickly put himself on the map as the go to sire for consistent quality. No matter who you talk to, time and again they will tell you their DATA BANKS are one of their top sire groups. The calves come easy, he has been called a calving ease bull, and they get up and grow from the day they hit the ground and they have all the look and style that you demand!
No I-80, no ALI and he works awesome on those pedigrees! DATA BANK is an extremely well-balanced, smooth made individual that has an undeniable look. He hails from some of the greatest cow families in the breed who have shown their power in the show ring but most importantly in the pasture. In an era when the search for a purebred Maine option has been somewhat limited DATA BANK is the answer. He is awesome footed, smooth jointed and is athletic as you can make a mature bull, he’s square made and extremely soft middled.

It is rare when one of this quality comes along. ESSENTIAL BUSINESS is a bull that will generate high income potential as an AI sire. This animal is massive in design, yet when set in motion is as fluid as you can make one. He is incredible in the angles of his shoulder, knee, pasterns, and hock. You can find sound ones, and you can find big boned, powerful ones, but to ask one individual to possess both traits puts ESSENTIAL BUSINESS in a league of his own.

TAKE ACTION is a full sib to Beauprez’s BSC FREEDOM 147F and a full sib in blood to the popular WEIS ALL ME bull.

BSC TAKE ACTION 5073J is a big outlined bull that presses the scales down hard with his added performance. As an out-cross sire with growth and punch he is the kind that will mate well with a wide variety of Maine-Anjou cows.

The most consistent sire of quality and value in the Maine breed!! Last fall hardly a week went by that there weren’t several high quality Icons commanding top dollar being sold online. Through the Fall/Winter Jackpots, Beef Expos and even the National Shows there were multiple ICONS in the winner’s circle. Including the Grand MaineTainer in KC, OKC, Tulsa and Third Overall at the 2022 NJHS and many more. The first 15 sons of ICON averaged over $16,000 at Duello Cattle and the first 30 head of ICON breds averaged nearly $10,000 at the Western Elite. Other highlights have been reported from the who’s who in the business including Blind Badger Ranch, Lucky Strike, Paulsen, Carlson Bonham Show Cattle, Craft, Ohlrichs, Fitzsimmons, Bonham/Martin, M Lazy Heart and several others from $15 to $50,000and that’s all in his first two calf crops. ICON is also quietly making a huge impact in the club calf world siring incredible replacements out of juked up dirty cows - and some pretty special show steers. But the real value is just being unveiled as his daughters come into production ... THEY ARE MAKING GREAT COWS!!!

Molds are meant to be broken. Straight from the heart of Eastview Maines, this direct son of the now deceased TJSC END GAME sources back to a double-bred WIDETRACK cow that essentially makes her an outcross to most Maine-Anjou genetics. BREAK THE MOLD himself is going to hold up his end of the bargain with an unmatched look of quality and a dense build. The feature and correctness to his skeleton, combined with his added pin width and neck set solidifies his look of generating value.

GCC BELMONT ET
BELMONT is the bull that the Maine breed needs, he is functional, powerful and comes from a female powerhouse backed by generations of donors and powerfully made individuals. BELMONT has been a standout since the day he was born. He’s had the bone, mass, and power you wish you could put into every calf. He hits his stride right on and does it in a powerful package. His calves on the ground have that look, time will tell but right now we are pumped. This is a bull has the potential to sire those females that still have the look and soundness you want but also to keep the power and sire the male counterparts that deserve to be left bulls.

Worth Stock Show, Cattlemen’s Congress, and 3rd Overall Supreme Bull in OKC! Praised by so many, KENO is an outlier not only for his breed but also for the industry. Starting from the ground up, his feet and structure are second to none. He’s square-hipped with plenty of shape and sets so high out of his shoulders adding to his long eyecatching front end! We expect great things out of KENO and believe he is the future for not only the Maine breed but to be used heavily in others as well!
The dam MCCF Giselle already has produced 2 National Champions in the last 3 years, hanging 4 National Titles. She was Reserve Maine Angus at the 2020 Maine Jr. Nationals in Sioux Falls, SD as well. It will be tough to find another bull with this kind of skeletal design, balance and power, yet calving ease. Take a gamble on KENO and get ready for your massive pay out!

GCC MAKIN TIME 404F ET
Calves on the ground are stout, hairy, with bone and mass. This bull is the real deal! The dam of MAKIN TIME, 1829, is one of the greatest cows we have ever owned. She makes herd bulls, she makes donors, but the most important thing she does is make them good! She is the dam to Cerveza and Whizard, two bulls who have sired as many high dollar females for raising club calf bulls as any bulls in the industry besides Whiskey. Maternal sisters are in our donor program and are proving the same consistency as their dam. This is a pedigree that has proven time and again to cross with Wade Rodgers bulls, it’s the pedigree of champions!
If we had to write a book on the most influential cows in our program it would easily be 5066. Maternal sisters to MASTERPIECE have produced our lead off heifers in the Classic, they have produced our top bulls and best replacements. They are donors and high sellers and no matter how we cross the matriarch 5066, she produces the top of the pen. Her daughter and maternal sister to MASTERPIECE, Miss Boston, was one of the most decorated females in the Maine breed and was Champion at Junior Nationals as a bred heifer and as a pair. One of the wisest pieces of advice I have ever received is, “If you love a cow, breed to her son to replicate her.” With two doses of the great Irish Whiskey and the maternal power of 5066 this is a bull you can not miss.

CAN I REGISTER A PHA OR THA CARRIER BULL?
The American Maine-Anjou Association (AMAA) does not permit the registration of a PHA or TH carrier bull into the breed registry. The AMAA does allow a PHA or TH carrier bull to have a “F” number, which places that animal into the Foundation category. This allows the breeder to use the bull, and if progeny test clean they will receive the Maine-Anjou influence from the original carrier sire. For instance: If you have a performance registered ½ blood Maine-Anjou bull and you bred him to commercial cows and the resulting progeny are clean of both TH and PHA, you could register those cattle as ¼ Maine-Anjou.
CAN I REGISTER PHA OR TH CARRIER FEMALES?
Yes, we allow carrier females to be registered. However, if those carrier Maine-Anjou females are used to make Maine Angus cattle, the progeny are required to be tested and clean in order to be registered as a Maine Angus. We do not allow Maine Angus females to be PHA or TH carriers.
WHAT IS THE LOWEST POSSIBLE PERCENTAGE WE WILL RECOGNIZE IN THE REGISTRY?
¼ by fraction only, not percentage.
FAQ
DOES THE AMAA ALLOW OTHER BREEDS TO BE REGISTERED INTO THE MAINE-ANJOU HERD BOOK?
Yes. Contact the office and they will add the non-Maine-Anjou parent to the herd book, so you can process registration.
WHAT TESTING IS REQUIRED FOR AN AI SIRE/DONOR DAM?
Regardless of breed, or if it’s commercial, the AMAA requires TH, PHA and parentage testing.
HOW LONG DOES TESTING TAKE?
Testing, typically, takes 4-6 weeks once samples reach the lab.
HOW DO I KNOW THE RESULTING PERCENTAGES OF MY MAINE-ANJOU OFFSPRING?
A percentage upgrading chart can be found on page 54 of this sire directory.
HOW DO I DISTINGUISH BETWEEN A MAINETAINER OR HIGH MAINE?
A MaineTainer is an animal that registers between 1/4 and 5/8 Maine-Anjou. A High Maine is a ¾ and up by fraction only as listed on Digital Beef, not by percentage.
WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO QUALIFY TO BE A MAINE ANGUS?
The detailed description is in this book. The first to consider is that only registered animals can be used to build Maine Angus, there are also strict rules for color, genetic defects, and parentage.
WHAT DO I BREED MY MAINE ANGUS FEMALE TO STAY IN THE MAINE ANGUS PROGRAM?
The easy answer is to a Maine Angus bull that had met the criteria. In this catalog you will see a section titled Maine Angus. There are other breeding options available as well.
IS THERE A MAINE ANGUS DIVISION AT EVERY SHOW?
Currently, there is not a Maine Angus division at every show, the program is growing in popularity and there are getting to be more all the time. However, remember that any Maine Angus individual has already met the standards to be a registered MaineTainer and this is also present on their AMAA papers. So you can still show them as a MaineTainer, if needed. The shows that currently have a Maine Angus Division are the American Royal, North American International Livestock Exposition, Cattlemen’s Congress, National Western Stock Show, and Junior Nationals.
