REFERENCE SIRES

With all the bull we use we make sure that they are backed by a special cow family that is highly regarded. This explains why over 70% of our catalogue has maternal grandsire that goes back to our own stable. Our family have been fine tuning these cow families for over 75 years. We know them, trust them and they have given us not only a boost in quality but consistency as well.

Te Mania Pythagoras P44

We invested in Pythathorus with good friends Ben Hill from Bulliac and Rob Bulle from Ardrossan. We were all looking for a sire to boost marbling that was free of Berkley and Regent bloodlines. Pythagorus has exceeded our expectations producing bigger framed, progeny that have scanned for IMF true to their potential.

Baldridge Forecaster B160

Forecaster is from a trusted stable for us in the Baldridge herd. We love best the way he stamps a good, masculine head on his bull calves giving them a real sire presence with a freaky length of body.

Musgrave 316 Exclusive

We saw a video of Exclusive and were sold once we saw his skin like mercury, and his combination of natural thickness, softness and mobility. We appreciate the commitment that Musgrave has made to quality and structural integrity.

MILLAH MURRAH PARATROOPER P15

He comes from one of the best cow herds in the country and he does them proud. His progeny are highly sought after because of their expressive muscle pattern, skin, structural correctness and temperament.

BEN NEVIS METAMORPHIC M51

Metamorphic sold for $32,000 for us in 2017 to a syndicate including Banquet, Fernleigh and Twin Oaks and has created sale toppers for them and other herds both here in Australia and New Zealand. He produces extra muscularity and proud outlooks as well as fine skins on his progeny with the influence of Bartel’s carcase under the hide.

BEN NEVIS PODIUM P242

Podium is the maternal brother to the $70,000 Ben Nevis Rambo and we kept him as a walking sire for the stud. His progeny are standouts –they have exceptional muscularity often with bulls and steers ending up with a B muscle score. He has a beautiful nature, strong spine and transmits both carcase and maternal excellence. Unfortunately we lost him in an accident earlier this year so we value the progeny we have.

Ben Nevis Quantico Q40

Quantico sold to Bowmont Angus in our 2020 sale for a top of $40,000. He combines the very best of Infinity and Beast Mode genetics to offer extra depth and softness to his progeny with an expansive rib and real weight for age performance. He features strongly in the 18mo section of the catalogue with some star lots.

BEN NEVIS RAMBO R230

Rambo sold in our 2021 sale for $70,000 to Glenmorgan, Banquet, Koojan Hills and Fernleigh. He combines not only our two best cow lines but arguably our two best cows including the $82,000 Ben Nevis Jean H215 (owned by Bannby and Banquet) and Ben Nevis Celeste (owned by Boambee Angus). Rambo makes a stunning debut in the true yearling section of the catalogue. There is much hype from those who have them in the syndicate or have seen them as he is a marbling sire that offers a show stopping phenotype, an outcross pedigree for most and superb thump and thickness. Every son of his scored a 1 for temperament.

DUNOON PRIME MINISTER P758

Prime Minister is breeding well across Australia transmitting incredible docility and performance and great feet. We used him in a flush to add extra IMF into our M72 line while doubling up on power. We also purchased the top price bull at Dunoon, a Prime Minister son named Dunoon Sunstone for $65,000.
