Gibbs Farms - Herd Sires - 2017 Semen Directory

n Has literally taken the industry by storm this past year as one of the most used SimAngus™ sires with sons topping sales throughout the country. n Total outcross sire to all Hooks Shear Force and Nichols Legacy pedigrees, making him a sire that can be widely used with “numbers fixing” confidence. n Appears that he is doing a great job passing his perfectly sound, unusually big hoof on to his progeny, a trait proving to be very valuable to suppliers of commercial bulls. n Commercial cattlemen can use NIGHTRIDE for added hybrid vigor with confidence of proven heifer calving ease along with the much needed bonus of improved hoof structure and top 1% rank for Marbling and $API.

n Prediction turns to proof as his first calves are on the ground out of heifers and no question that his CE and BW EPDs are for real, a “Rock Solid” calving ease choice. n Incredibly sound made hoof and leg structure with a world of rib capacity, and depth of flank make him impressive from any angle. n A great choice for all types of large scale heifer breeding projects, incorporating hybrid vigor and boosting profit potential to new levels.

n Unique and different pedigree that offers a total outcross to Hook’s Shear Force and Nichols Legacy.

n Ten calves born Fall 2016 at Gibbs Farms out of heifers, all unassisted, but not as extreme low BW as his sire, proving he is a calving ease choice where added power and performance is desired.

n Progeny have the added muscle, deep-flank, powerful look of their sire with a stunning profile, NIGHTHAWK should prove to have the added power and performance we expected.

n Not your typical looking NIGHTRIDE son, this guy is loaded with power and muscle.

n Big, sound, perfectly shaped hoof gives this NIGHTRIDE son a solid structural foundation from the ground up, making him a pleasure to watch on the move.

n High-selling bull in the Gibbs Farms 2016 Sale demanding strong interest from a lengthy list of serious breeders across the country.

n His slick hair coat, gentle disposition, and enormous genetic value package should make him a very popular choice for all southern locations.

n Best described as a slightly smaller frame size version of his great sire, yet producing more performance in a super attractive, very sound structured package. n Sired the very popular leadoff sire group of bulls in the Gibbs Farms 2016 Sale.

n Progeny have proven to be consistent BW and CE safe out of heifers and mature into heavy muscle, high-volume yearlings with a super-popping look.

n Backed by one of the top-producing cow families at Gibbs Farms, STATEMENT has the potential to be the same great “cow-producer” as his sire.

n First full year of progeny data from multiple herds proves ADMIRAL has exceeded his projected high-performance and carcass value as he now ranks in the top 1% of the breed for WW, YW, ADG, CW, REA, and $TI, along with top 2% for Marb and Stay. n As a yearling Tom Hook described ADMIRAL as “gentle disposition, softstructure, sound hoof-quality, and soggy with premier genetic balance”.

Progeny data and visual appraisal confirms Tom nailed his predictions on this one. n Oldest daughters just calved out and reports indicate they are more moderate in frame than expected, huge-capacity, and possess great udder and teat quality. n Admiral is easily the industry choice for extreme performance and carcass value with safe CE for cows along with extremely high maternal stayability.

n Proven “heifer safe”, Premier is the ALLIED “go-to” sire for large volume commercial heifer breeding projects. Ask about the great ALLIED/ORIgen volume discounts available.

n Daughters have proven to be the “keeper” kind, calving easy and producing plenty of milk from perfectly attached, well-shaped udders and teats.

n Truly a commercial cattleman’s kind of bull that can net more total dollars to the bank account due to short term value of calving ease and long term value of high-producing daughters with longevity.
