LOT 4 -WEDEL PRIME EXAMPLE 5247 If you’re looking for the recipe for profit in the Red Angus business, here’s a PRIME EXAMPLE . More pounds of calf, more pounds of carcass, and more PRIME premiums backed by three generations of fertility, longevity, and fleshing ability. Lot 4 is the PRIME-TIME son out of GRAND SLAM’s dam. He’s powerfully made and lit up the ultrasound machine with ratios of 115 IMF and 111 REA. Lot 4 comes from one of the most proven and prolific cow families to ever graze our native short grass pastures. His dam has a $37,000 son and a $13,000 daughter to her credit after only two sales, and has average proge- ny ratios of 103 weaning, 104 yearling, 115 IMF and 102 REA on her natural calves. Her maternal grandam, 6094 is the highest producing female in our herd with a 116 MPPA, and still going strong as a 10-year- old. Her great maternal grandam, 071Z raised 10 natural calves as an 11-year-old and had amazing progeny ratios of: 108 weaning, 109 year- ling, 108 IMF and 108 REA. His sire, Prime Time was the leadoff and $25,000 high-selling bull in our 2021 sale. His maternal-brother, Grand Slam was the $37,000 leadoff and high-sellling bull in our 2024 sale. PRIME-TIME was injured last summer and hasn’t made semen since. Currently there are less than 400 units in existance. Prime Example could inherit his sire’s future semen sales, and should generate plenty of interest on his own, given his superior genetic predictions. We plan to use this bull in our program Wedel PRIME-TIME 0007 Sire of Lot 4 Ideal breeds fall calving cows on the mountainsides of West Virginiia, then returns to western Kansas Prarie to cover spring calving cows on our Wallace Ranch.
