I wanted to take a minute to talk about the maternal power of our bull, PCC Knight Crawler and what we hope to accomplish with all the traits these females possess.
First off his dam CR Trick Shot. This cow comes from the heart of Pace Cattle Company’s program. She’s a nice 8 year old cow. A female anyone would be proud to have in their program. She has an awesome udder, the ability to raise a great calf, color and amazing 85 inches of twist. These are things we want our bull to be able to pass on. A huge reason why we choose our bull. She has color to burn, we are excited to see how she contributes to this amazing gene pool.
Her dam, Knight Crawlers maternal grand dam. Is Awesome Trixie. A 104” powerhouse of a female. Don’t let her solid red color get you down as there isn’t a hole in this female. She sold for 160k, 2 years ago at the legacy sale. She is a perfectly balanced individual with an abundance of milk and extremely fertile. She has two daughters that are going to be in their 60's TTT at two years.( RJF Awesome Cowgirl was 73.25 at 3 and is now 83.25 at 4.5) (RJF Extraordinary was 75” at 3 and is now 86” at 4) ( RJF Awesome Attraction is 74.25” at 3 years old), so obviously there is great consistency with this producer. Trixie's sire is Awesome Martin Luther who is a full brother to Night Safari BL833 ( which is also pictured below) out of an Awesome Vi**ra daughter.
His paternal grand dam is PCC Dazzle Doll, another from the core of Pace Cattle Company’s program. She sold for 70k last year and is a fantastic female. She measures 94” at 9 years old. Her consistency is unmatched. It won’t take you long looking at her progeny to say “WOW”. Any bull you breed her to it seems like you get a home run. She milks well has great structure and the consistency we want in our program.
His paternal great grand dam is the famous Night Safari cow. One of my favorite cows in the history of the breed. She brings in that consistency I’ve been talking about. Night Safari has been used to create many families in the breed today. She has had a huge influence in the breed and in our program. We have found a few ways to incorporate this legend into our program. We want o be able to stack consistency and this female is another tool to allow us to do that within our program.
Last but not least is his maternal great grand dam and she needs no introduction. Horseshoe J Example is a legend. She has been a huge influence for the stocktons and Randy Murray at New Age Cattle Company. The dam of Concealed Weapon, Formal Attire, and many over 90” T2T daughters. She is one of the most horn producing females of all time. She’s a whopping 99” on beautiful twist.
I hope this has been a great read of the influence the females have in our bulls pedigree and what we hope to accomplish with him. We are very excited to get him on some heifers so we can build off the foundation we have started.
