Know How is a super stout, thick, moderate sized, great footed, big testicle bull that has the look of his father, No Doubt. From one of the longest standing, most successful cow families in the 94-year history of Hoover Angus, this bull brings a special pedigree to the breed.
The first Know How calves at Hoover Angus were born in the spring of 2019, and at a couple months of age, we knew these calves would be special. Know How progeny are sharp-looking with a strong hip, powerful hind leg, sound structure, and excellent thickness. They have the power and growth one would expect from a No Doubt line.
Know How weaned at 823 pounds, WR 108, YW 1354 lbs., YR 102, and scanned a 15.7” ribeye. He was originally purchased by repeat customer Jeff Bellamy in our 2017 auction, then sought by Teixeira Cattle Co. in 2018.
Pathfinder dam L265 is better known as “Stormy” around Hoover Angus, as she is the only daughter of SydGen Storm. Stormy is an exceptional uddered female and calm in her demeanor. She is a low birth weight cow that records 7-98 BWR and 7-101 WR. Stormy has one Pathfinder daughter that works in the herd. Stormy and the 6 generations of cows behind her have been superior uddered females. If you need to improve udder attachment, shape, and teat size, consider Know How.
Stormy is an 11th generation Blackcap Empress Ellston female to be bred, born, and raised at Hoover Angus. This has been a tremendously successful cow family through many generations. Fifth generation dam C57 has given rise to a phenomenal cow family. Eighty-six daughter descendants have stemmed from C57, including 17 Pathfinders and 8 donor cows! Four bulls selected for use in the Hoover herd have also stemmed from C57. To say C57 has had an impact on the herd would be an understatement! She has truly helped write the history books at Hoover Angus.
