One of the strengths of CCS is our approach to sire selection. We realize that each customer has a unique production situation. Differences in forage resources, cow herd breed composition, calving date and marketing goals can advocate the use of an entirely different bull from one ranch to the next.
That is why we prefer a systems approach to sire selection versus picking a bull with the most extreme EPD’s. Travis is employed as a part-time GTS evaluator for ABS. This unique situation allows him to see several sire groups throughout the country. It gives us a very good idea as to how most sires are performing in traits that aren’t measured by EPD’s, important traits such as muscling, capacity, fleshing ability, structure, udder conformation and teat size. These “necessity” traits are what keep you profitable for the long term.
Travis would be glad to visit your herd and objectively assess its utility as well as learn more about your feed resources, marketing plan and management situation. Then we can best help you select a bull that will keep your cow herd on track, while still giving you a more valuable calf to market.
