Quick pasture pic of King Me 1m who is coming 2 yrs of age (top pic). He was the top feed efficiency bull last winter at Werner's Facility. Excited about this bull whose pedigree includes Long Haul, donor cow SpiritQueen 12A, Poldarks (Trust / Durango 44 package) and a little bit of Hometown.

Second (bottom pic) is Black Beard 31L (a Poldark son); his pedigree includes another shot of Durango 44, Boyd Masterpiece and Dynasty from the Dam side. This boy moves with the best of them.

Getting first time calves from both of these bulls this year!

This has become an annual event, my "me" trip to the annual NJW sale. Building better herds never stops. Was able to sn**ch up two open heifers - daughters from Tuff 10H and Soul 173H, both out of NJW donor cows. The Longview collection continues....
