Longevity was the Lot 1, lead-off bull in our 2019 auction, where he sold to Mohnen Angus for $26,000.

Longevity was the #1 adjusted weaning weight bull of the crop with his 911 pound weaning weight! He was the #1 yearling weight bull of the crop at 1546 pounds, YR 117 and an upper 6 frame. He had a 42 cm scrotal, a 5.59 IMF, ratio 154, ribeye 16.2”, ratio 113. He froze semen as a yearling bull.

Longevity is square, correct, has superior thickness and a great scrotal. He is wide based, good footed, and has lots of body. He is a proud bull – he was the best in his crop and he knew it!

Pathfinder donor dam and Pathfinder donor grandam are two of my all-time favorite cows. We have flushed this mother-daughter pair on several occasions, and they have produced some of our best bulls in the past decade. Dam H115 and grandam C50 are the only mother-daughter pair in the herd where both cows have achieved Pathfinder status, and both cows have grossed over $100,000 in registered progeny sales! 

H115 records 11-98 BWR, 11-109 WR, 10-106 YR, 18-102 IMF ratio and 18-102 ribeye ratio! H115 has been flushed four times, and still maintains an exceptional 361 day calving interval on 11 natural calves! Likewise, we have stolen 6 flushes on her dam C50 and she had a 363 day calving interval on 13 progeny prior to taking her out of production at 15 years of age to flush for one year! The fertility in this cow family is second-to-none!

H115’s 11 sons to come to auction have averaged $10,175, and her two daughters $6500. H115’s first son was the 2nd top weaning weight bull of his crop, a photo feature in our sale, and works for repeat customer Kirk Egbert in Idaho. Her next son was the 11th top weaning weight, 4th top yearling weight bull of his crop and works for repeat customer Dan Olson. Next, H115’s son rang the bell as the #1 adjusted weaning weight bull of his crop and works for repeat customer Jeff Bellamy. The record continues, as her next son, Hoover Explorer was the 4th top-selling bull in our 2015 auction selling to Alta Genetics and Diamond J Angus in North Dakota. H115’s six natural sons to come to auction have averaged an 827 pound weaning weight!

Pathfinder grandam C50 has perfected perfection! She was laid to rest at nearly 17 years of age. Two of her daughters have achieved Pathfinder status. Her 31 progeny to come to auction have averaged $7150! These progeny work in 8 states plus Canada. C50 records 14-100 BWR, 14-106 WR, and 11-103 YR. She was our oldest cow listed in the 2019 Pathfinder Report! C50’s son in our 2019 sale was one of the top selling bulls at $24,000 to Alta Genetics and Diamond J Angus.

Semen is available on Longevity through his owners at $20/unit and $40/certificate.
