Sire selected by ABS as the $24,000 two-thirds interest top-seller of the spring 2017 bull sale at Mead Farms combines the power of two popular A.I. sires known for added growth and performance and this exciting young sire with an outcross pedigree for many ORIgen customers has a bright future and an exceptional EPD and $value index profile. A flush sister to the dam of Magnum sold half interest for $190,000 to Vintage Angus Ranch in the 2018 sale at Spruce Mountain Ranch and the grandam of Magnum is a Pathfinder Dam that has been a cornerstone donor for the Kirk family’s Atacosa Farms of Nacogdoches, Texas.
