WHY POSS DEADWOOD?
Elite Marbling
Deadwood’s carcass profile is one of his defining strengths. His current Angus evaluation shows Marbling +2.04, ranking in the Top 1% of the breed. That makes him especially relevant for programs placing significant emphasis on quality grade and end-product value.
Powerful Growth
Deadwood combines that carcass merit with substantial growth. His WW +84 ranks Top 15% and YW +153 ranks Top 10%, giving him the ability to add pounds and performance rather than functioning strictly as a carcass specialist.
Carcass Value
Deadwood’s overall carcass economics are equally impressive. His current evaluation places $B at +276, Top 1%, while $C at +387 ranks Top 3%. Combined with RE +.96, Top 20%, his profile offers considerable end-product merit across multiple measures.
Proven Industry Influence
Deadwood quickly became a heavily used Angus sire, building a substantial progeny base across seedstock and commercial programs. His widespread use gives cattlemen considerably more information to evaluate than is available on an unproven young sire and has established his influence across the breed.
BEST FIT
Commercial and seedstock programs seeking high-level marbling, added growth and strong carcass value, particularly where increasing pounds and improving end-product merit are major breeding objectives.
