     At 9 years of age, Déjà vu continues to be one of our most popular Colorado Hobo sons. As a calf, he reminded us so much of his sire that we called him Déjà vu. This is a calving ease bull with extreme power and thickness. Déjà vu’s calving ease direct (CED) EPD is in the top 3% of the Red Angus breed. His momma is a fault-free, easy-keeping cow that only weighs 1120 pounds that is still going at 13 years of age. Déjà vu’s maintenance energy (ME) EPD is in the top 20% of the Red Angus breed.

     Colorado Hobo is a calving ease bull that continues to redefine industry standards for thickness, fleshing ability and capacity. He is having a monumental impact on the Red Angus breed. Sons and daughters are excelling in grass-based programs all over the world. For nine years, Colorado Hobo was used naturally on 40 to 110 cows per year. When DNA tested by Igenity, he received a score of 9 out of 10 for marbling. Several outstanding Colorado Hobo sons are working in our program — but I continue to be partial to the original model.

       Marias is somewhat of an outcross to our program. He is a TANK with a GREAT disposition! We have high hopes for this high-capacity bull.

     Keepsake is a forage-tested bull that sold in our 2003 Colorado Spring Bull Sale. He was our lead-off Colorado Hobo son. He went to Arkansas, but could not deal with the heat, humidity and infected fescue. Soon after we brought him home, our vet gave him a clean bill of health. Keepsake is homozygous for both the GeneStar and TenderGENE DNA tests for tenderness. When it comes to beef on the dinner plate, we believe tenderness is the most important trait to select for. Co-owned with the Rhoades Ranch and Bobby Umberson.
