We Received this e-mail from buyers of one of our bulls.
The buyers were Kent & Steven Tien of Prairie View.
Here is what Kent sent us:
Lynn,
Thought you might be interested in hearing how the first calves did at the feedlot sired by the Rockn D Ambush son we bought from you a few years ago.  His calves are moderate framed with plenty of muscle and volume and we were definitely impressed that they out performed several other AI sires.  They had very low backfat and high marbling (1/3 were prime) along with good growth.  We used him on heifers the first year and had no trouble calving with birth weights in the low 70s.

He was raised at Spring Valley and was
the high selling bull in the 2001 sale, selling for $7500

Carcass data received almost 15 years ago still matches up with what data we
recently received last year, so this proves that our breeding program
has been time tested over many years
We are proud here at Spring Valley Farms that the feedlot
and carcass data we have collected on the progeny from our
breeding program is very positive.
The following data was taken in comparison to 20,214 head of steers fed at the same feedlot.  Our steers arrived at the feedlot 28% heavier, gained 14% better with better feed efficiency and lower cost of gain.  Our steers treatment cost was 1/3 of the average with zero death loss.  Our carcasses were 10% above the average in weight with 80% yield grade ones and twos and were 25% above the average grading choice. Our cattle had 31% higher carcass premiums and netted $35 over and above the average net return of the other cattle. We start with 350 mother cows selected for temperament, reproductive success, mothering ability, and visual appraisal, calved and cared for in a commercial environment and backed by generations of proven sires.
PREDICTABLE RESULTS TIME AFTER TIME!!
