U-2 Authentic 139A is an AI sire we sampled given the accolades granted to his sisters
DCB 130 in production out of the renown Red Minburn Copenhagen 3Y bull. Authentic himself is a
smooth-made, attractive power bull. His offspring were accepted well in the U-2 disper-
sion this past year. In Canada, where Authentic sired 470+ progeny, he ranks in the top 2% for WW and top 10% for YW and top 2% for HPG. We look forward to seeing daughters in
production in 2022. Used AI.

Bernie Express 353A also known as “Rockstar” is a bull we selected specifi cally on the
BIRNIE EXPRESS 353A cows in his pedigree. His dam, OTT-Mona-758-970 produced offspring at 19 years of
age and has produced 28 total natural and ET calves. We had the fortune to fl ush 970 and
even in her late years she maintained a perfect udder and sound feet and legs. The paternal dam, MLK CRK Sheba 043 was a tank of a cow that stood out in a very reputable Milk Creek
program. His sire, MLK CRK Express 9127, is known for his daughters and we used him AI last year on heifers because we appreciate those females that much. Rockstar ranks in top
top 1% for Stay.

HRR Express 5142 is a bull we retained for in herd use given his performance and the
HRR EXPRESS 5142 maternal strength of his pedigree. He was used primarily in a cleanup role after AI until
we started to notice his offspring, although younger than the AI group, his calves are
holding ground with other sire’s calves. His pedigree is based on three lines that are known for their females, Shoco Data 102, Milk Crk Lakota 850 and Milk Crk Express 9127. He
ranks in the top 3% or better for ProS, HB, CEM, Stay and is in the top 3 % for CED while being in the 50% of the breed for 7 other traits. We moved HRR Express 5142 into the two-
year-old pasture to get more of his offspring. His dam, HRR Lakota 115 is a donor at HRR with a 99 BW, 105 WW, 104 YW and a 104 MPPA on 8 natural calves. You will note some
standout sons in this sale.
