A History Making Day

Never before have the top six
proven Holstein TPI sires resided in
the same location. That residence
happens to be stud code 007.
7Ho11351 Supersire leads the
charge. With 934 NM$, he stands
head and shoulders above the
competition. This sire settles cows
at a high rate (+3.3 SCR) and with a
tremendous CFP of 182, he should
find his way into most semen tanks.
Outstanding health traits combined
with very functional type completes
the package.
The exciting news does not end
with Supersire. Select offers five
sires over 700 NM$ and 19 sires in
the 90th percentile and above.
Some of our most popular sires
moved up nicely in their NM$:
McCutchen +49 Petrone +93
MacGuiness +44 Punch +73
Supersire +100 Mogul +41
7Ho11585 Sterling
Our lineup has a lot to offer:
35 sires under 7%CE (7Ho11283
Mayfield is 3.8%), 9 sires over 100
CFP, and 48 sires plus for SCR.
