I n 2024, Dale attended the Ellingson Angus Production Sale, set out on finding a new herd sire that would find a good balance on the criteria he was looking for which is to continue on his operation in raising quiet, good footed, heavy cattle that will breed every year and having longevity, a lasting impact to his herd. Qualities he has instilled in his genetics and continues to enhance in that direction. Ellingson Pilot 3102, registration # 207447112, is the outcross needed in Dale’s lineup. A son of Bear Mtn Pilot 1520, who was the $40,000 top- selling bull out of the 2022 Bear Mtn Bull Sale in Nebraska, later that fall Pilot 1520’s dam sold for $49,000 to ZWT in Tennessee. You can find Bear Mtn Pilot 1520 in the Origen Beef line up.
To his dam’s pedigree – the Bells Girl cow family is one of most prolific cow families in the Ellingson Angus lineup going back to the matriarch EA Bells Girl 2181, she is known as the “cornerstone Angus cow from Ellingson Angus” and is the dam to Ellingson Open Range. Later, EA Bells Girl 2181 would be sold as a “pick of the herd” to Ingram Angus in 2020. What Dale found the most intriguing with Pilot 3102 himself was his balanced EPD profile. If you study his awesome EPD’s he stacks up amongst the best for weaning and yearling weight, docility, foot quality, heifer pregnancy, marbling and ribeye. You will see a lot more of his offspring in the years to come on the Sprunk Angus operation and he is eager to calve out some of Pilot 3102’s daughters.
