The phenotypic pick of a flush that sold for $85,000 in the fall of 2002, this daughter of the all-time record-selling bull from the Summitcrest Farms program who had an unprecedented 100% qualification of his first official test progeny for the elite Certified Angus Beef® brand was produced by the dam who just set a new world record valuation at Riverbend Ranch when half interest of her sold to Mountain Meadow Ranch of Walden, CO, for $260,000. Maternal sisters to this 2005 Foundation heifer were the top-selling heifer calf of the 2004 Davis Dispersal at $70,000, the 2004 Riverbend Ranch Sale at $65,000 and the 2004 Vintage Angus Ranch Sale at $50,000 and their dam, a longtime breed leader for UREA EPD is rapidly approaching $1,500,000 in progeny sales at public auction. Five full sisters will remain at Three Trees Ranch and the buyer of this heifer has the option to choose any of the six full sisters before February 1, 2005. |
