Watson is a multi-dimensional herd bull with extra volume, depth and muscle. Everything is right here! His dam is a beautiful daughter of Image Maker and a full sister to Benfield Substance 8506 and Benfield Elliott 029. This bull drew our attention since the day he was born. A moderate birth weight bull and calving ease prospect, he was one of the top performance bulls with a ratio of 107 for weaning and 103 for yearling. He is the mirror image of his full brother who sold last year for $8500. Don’t overlook this docile, moderate framed herd bull with a unique but proven outcross pedigree!

One of the top performing bulls for weaning and yearling, 6555 is a moderate birth weight bull out of a prolific 11 year Kona dam. The Kona daughters are renowned for their longevity in the Benfield and Cleremont herds. We appreciate the attractive phenotype in Lot 4 that compliments the power, volume and length in this prospective herd bull. You can use this Whitley son to add pounds as well as to sire long lasting productive females.

The Whitley x Chisum cross produces a consistent phenotype. They are the kind of cattle that will excel on a low input grass based program. They are deep bodied with extra volume, capacity and muscle with moderate birthweights and mature size. Lot 6 is another good example. His attractive dam is one of our favorite cows. She is a sound and easy keeping female with a perfect udder.

Take a look at this high performance Whitley son from a fault free Substance daughter and productive cow family. His dam has a weaning ratio of 103 on three calves. The grandam is the mother of Lot 27. Lot 8 is a multi-dimensional herd prospect with extra length, growth and muscle.

We are extremely pleased with the ¾ brothers from the Whitley x Substance cross. They are above average in muscle and performance. Lot 10 is no exception and has continued to improve since weaning. We consider his dam a model Angus cow.

Lot 12 is a true herd sire prospect that is hard to fault with his terrific phenotype, superb individual performance, and enviable heritage. Mack Donald is a well balanced, heavy muscled, and structurally sound prospect with tremendous length of body. He combines the antagonistic traits of low birthweight and high performance flawlessly. His Pathfinder dam records 4@97 BWR and 4 @ 108 WWR with a 364 day calving interval. Plus, she is a full sister to the dam of Reference Sire A, WRA Whitley. On top of all this, Mack Donald has a wonderfully quiet disposition—scratch his back and you will have a friend for life. Selling 2/3 interest and full possession.

This stout, high growth cow bull prospect is a full brother in blood to our featured Mack son, Lot 12. His beautiful young dam was featured on the cover of our 2015 catalog and she is a full sister to the dams of Whitley and Mack Donald. Lot 14 should sire big volume, high growth progeny and his daughters should make efficient, productive mother cows.

Lot 16 is another product of the combination of Mack on T10 daughters. Typical of the T10 daughters, his dam is a big volume, feminine, beautifully uddered young cow. Look for Lot 16 to carry forward a strong maternal heritage.

Lot 18 is an outstanding heifer bull prospect that combines low birth genetics with a deep maternal heritage. His linebred dam by T10 is from the same cow family that produced T10, Vindicator, Walker, and Cedar Run. C16 is a long bodied, smooth fronted, low birthweight prospect from our featured cow family for low input genetics combined with excellent performance.

It is easy to lose Lot 20 in this crop of outstanding bulls, but the real world, foundation genetics of the Mack X T10 cross are hard to ignore. His maternal brother by Topper was one of our top performers in 2014, with a 110 WWR and 110 YWR

Highly recommended for cows, Lot 22 is a high growth prospect out of a terrific T10 daughter. Expect him to sire high performance, fault free progeny that include fertile, highly productive daughters.

This low birth weight Colt son is out of a 2nd calf Elliott daughter from a great line of productive females counting seven generations at Benfield. In addition, he traces twice to Benfield Edella 1105, the most influential female in our breeding program. One of the top performing bulls on test, Lot 24 is docile and thick like his sire. Take a look at this balanced trait prospect with proven genetic merit!
