Our new herdsire: Woodhaven Starburst "BJ" DOB 3-11
I am really pleased to have had the opportunity to add BJ to my growing herd of Pinzgauers. He is a long framed, deep sided bull with lots of muscling and is gentle and easy to handle and work with. He arrived at the farm in early October (2014) and has already been working. We are eagerly awaiting his first calves here in the late summer/early fall of next year. This is a recent photo taken when he was named National Champion for the second time in August of this year. He has an impressive show record which includes: 2014 National Grand Champion Bull 2013 National Grand Champion Bull 2013 Grand Champion Bull World Beef Expo 2013 Grand Champion Bull Midwest District Show 2012 National Junior Champion Bull 2012 Junior and Grand Champion Bull Midwest District Show 2011 Champion Bull Calf and Grand Champion Bull World Beef Expo 2011 Reserve Champion Bull Calf and Reserve Grand Champion Midwest District Show
Senior Herdsire: CPP Apollo 5032768 DOB 2-2-10
Apollo was purchased from Circle P Pinzgauers in Texas when he was just a yearling. In a limited show career he did win his class as a calf at the National Show. He is sired by CPP Hercules and is out of Diamond G-F's Paulette who is a Diamond T G-Force daughter. We have used him for two calving seasons and the base of our cowherd is bred to him again for 2015. We are extremely pleased with the calves he has sired, and are really looking forward to what we are going to get from BJ on our Apollo daughters. Apollo like BJ is easy to handle and work with. If we need to move him at any time we just walk up to him, slip on a halter and lead him to wherever he needs to go. We will continue to use him on some of our original cows to repeat some of the more successful breedings.
