231A was a standout as a yearling during the summer months of 2014 at Red Hill Farms. 231A had unusually short,
slick hair – making him extremely valuable for cowherds on fescue pastures and in hot climates. This adaptability feature
of 231A translated into excellent individual ratios – 99 BWR, 109 WWR, 117 YWR, 107 %IMF, and 121 REA. We were
looking for a Step Out son with all the positive attributes of Step Out – foot size, length of stride, soundness, growth and
carcass traits – without bringing along the birthweight. We have chosen to retain 231A at Red Hill Farms. 231A’s dam,
X004, is a Gateway cow that has adapted well to our fescue environment and has excellent progeny ratios. She is now a
donor cow at Red Hill. Watch for more progeny in the future! 231A’s calves are always the heaviest in each contemporary
group at weaning. His calves are very dense, wide centered and heavy muscled-cattle that have tremendous growth rate
without the extra frame size. His calves are never “out of bounds” on frame size in either direction. All daughters are being
retained at Red Hill.

213B is a promising purebred that fi ts well into the Red Hill program. 213B is extremely calm and is as slick as any bull
on the farm. 213B is an ET son of GW Game Changer and out of our outstanding Shear Force daughter, 14S, from Tom
Hook. 14S is truly an amazing cow – she stays slick haired in our fescue environment, her BCS is usually 7, and she
weans the heaviest calf in the pasture. The fi rst calves by 213B have been impressive- reasonably small and vigorous.
This bull will continue to see a lot of use in our SimAngus program.
