      Energizer is a powerhouse of a Tarentaise bull. He is black, polled and purebred. Energizer is definitely one of the most impressive Tarentaise bulls we have ever owned. He packs a tremendous amount of thickness, muscling and fleshing ability in a relatively small frame. He is also extremely masculine in appearance. He ain’t no sissy bull. Great feet and leg structure. Energizer crosses very well on Angus-cross cows. His crossbred calves will be as good as they come.

      Black Bonus is a registered 75% Tarentaise bull that is still working at age 9. Like his sire, Energizer, he is black and polled. At $4500, he was the high-selling Tarentaise bull in our 2001 Bull Sale. Black Bonus is an extremely heavy-muscled bull with a tremendous amount of depth and spring of rib. We are using Black Bonus to produce some very functional and popular PCC Composite cattle that are 3/8 Tarentaise. He is co-owned with Toby Foland and Dennis Hoyle.

       Polled Coteau can be found in the pedigree of most of our Tarentaise and Composite cattle. All of our old Tarentaise grandma cows are either daughters or granddaughters of him. We are currently flushing a 13-year-old daughter. Polled Coteau has tremendous fertility and longevity. He was a heavy-muscled, moderate-framed, breed-color, polled bull. Co-owned with Matney Cattle Company.

      Black-Out is a polled, purebred Tarentaise bull that has been DNA tested to be homozygous black. That means every one of his calves will be black. Black-Out will work very well on smaller framed British-type cows, or in a registered herd to produce some black-hided Tarentaise. Limited semen inventory. There are only 52 straws of semen left (take them all for just $6/straw).
