New Graduates Join Powerhouse PLANET at Select Sires<\/strong><\/p>\n

PLAIN CITY, Ohio, April 5, 2012
\nSelect Sires has long been known as the source for customer satisfaction \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 sires that impact the breed for generations. 7HO8081 Ensenada Taboo \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 PLANET-ET (EX-90-GM) claimed the top spot on Holstein’s Top 100 TPI list \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 with 97% Reliability or greater last fall, and holds tight to that spot \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 with the April summaries. Now, with his first official summary in Canada,\u00a0PLANET earns the top spot on the LPI list at an impressive +3217.
\nWith nearly 8,000 daughters in his April USDA summary and a GTPI\u2120 of +2215, PLANET is certainly carving out his place in Holstein history. This FeedPRO\u00ae sire continues to exhibit profitability with high volumes of milk (+2,323) and great solids (+69 Protein, +75 Fat). Add to all that a\u00a0breed-leading Net Merit dollar value (+$736) and the reasons for his \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 popularity become evident. PLANET builds cows with functional type and\u00a0sound udders that last, and with low calving difficulty (6% DBH) and gender SELECTed\u2122 semen, you can feel good about using him in your heifer pens.Elite TPI Graduates
\nRanking fourth for GTPI at Select Sires, 7HO10211 Regancrestdl S RYKER-ET\u00a0(+2070 GTPI) is a promising Shottle son from the Excellent\u00a0(92-EX-MS-GMD-DOM) full sister to 7HO6758 Regancrest-MR Drham SAM-ET. RYKER’s type foundation runs deep. He is also backed by an Excellent\u00a0(90-2E-DOM) 7HO3948 MJR Blackstar EMORY grandam and an Excellent\u00a0(91-3E-EX-MS-GMD-DOM) great-grandam. With his own ideal type traits (+2.89\u00a0PTAT; +2.95 Udder Composite, UDC; and +1.71 Feet and Leg Composite, FLC), he\u00a0is destined to sire customer satisfaction and has earned Select’s DIAMOND\u00a0SELECTion\u2122 designation as an indicator of just that. Expect high components (+.03% P, +.12% F) from this udder specialist with the ability to\u00a0strengthen the fore udder attachment (+3.40) and moderate udder depth. He\u00a0also has the ability to add a shot of strength and stature when needed and\u00a0does all this as a calving ease sire (7% DBH).<\/p>\n

A popular Super Sampler\u2122 from the\u00a0Chief Adeen family, 7HO10176 Mr Regelcreek Shot AL-ET (EX-91) now joins\u00a0Select Sires’ proven lineup and follows closely behind RYKER, ranking among Select’s top five GTPI sires at +2052. With an overall type score of +2.56,\u00a0AL’s linear is picture perfect, and his early classified daughters paint\u00a0the same picture. His Udder Composite and Feet and Leg Composite are both\u00a0over +2.00. AL is a calving ease sire (6% CE with nearly 7,000\u00a0observations) with a high Sire Conception Rate (SCR) of +1.9. With a Net\u00a0Merit dollar value of +$501 and Productive Life (PL) score of +3.3 AL is\u00a0likely to make a lot of dairy producers happy.<\/p>\n

Among Select’s top ten GTPI sires\u00a0and the federation’s highest ranking Bolton son at +2045, 7HO9900 Beery-Val\u00a0Bolton ABRAM (EX-90) posts solid credentials earning Select’s HealthMark\u2122, \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Herdlife Builder\u2122, Diamond SELECTion and FeedPRO\u00ae designations. ABRAM\u00a0offers pleasing production (+1,155 Milk) with great components (+42\u00a0Protein, +.03% Protein, +62 Fat, +.07% Fat), and he tops his graduating\u00a0class for Net Merit dollar value at +$570. Look to ABRAM for solid\u00a0production with balanced type (+1.60 PTAT, +1.67 UDC, +1.24 FLC) and with a\u00a0Productive Life score of +4.1, daughters that are build to last.<\/p>\n

The TYPE You Like
\n7HO9165 Regancrest S BRAXTON-ET (EX-95) continues his reign as the No. 1\u00a0type sire at Select Sires (+3.67 PTAT). With an exceptional linear, BRAXTON sires fancy daughters and is custom designed for Select’s Showcase\u00a0Selections\u2122 program. His distinctive daughters are maturing into prominent\u00a0cows with outstanding frames, great feet and legs (+2.20 FLC), beautiful \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 udders (+2.16 UDC) and pleasing production (+1,159 Milk). With gender SELECTed semen, you can make even more fancy heifers that develop into special young cows.<\/p>\n

Popular Super Sampler and\u00a0Showcase Selections sire 7HO9893 Maple-Downs-I G W ATLANTIC-ET (VG-88) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 enters Select’s proven lineup at +3.17 Type. He is siring daughters in the \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 image of his All-American dam, MD-Delight Durham Atlee-ET \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 (EX-92-EX-MS-GMD-DOM). With superior composite scores (+2.86 UDC, +3.06 FLC, +1.85 BD, +2.06 D), this Goldwyn son will deliver daughters that put\u00a0you in the winner’s circle. ATLANTIC is a Superior Settler\u2122 boasting an\u00a0elite Sire Conception Rate of +2.9 and while his daughters are tall, open,\u00a0strong heifers, he maintains a low Calving Ease value of 7% with 6,400\u00a0observations.<\/p>\n

Another highly demanded Super\u00a0Sampler, 7HO9879 Pine-Tree SPEARMINT-ET (EX-90) joins Select Sires’ proven\u00a0lineup as a solid type improver (+2.43 Type) with over 300 classified\u00a0daughters in his highly reliable (96%) April summary. With an outstanding \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Feet and Leg Composite (+2.29), +2.60 Feet and Legs score and moderate \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 stature, SPEARMINT daughters are built for the commercial environment. At nearly a point and a half for Udder Composite (+1.47), he sires\u00a0smooth-blending fore udders with high rear udder attachments. Look for this high-fertility (+3.0 SCR) sire’s daughters to excel in fitness and health\u00a0traits and to live long, productive lives (+3.8 PL).<\/p>\n

JAYVEN and KINLEY Got Milk
\n7HO9441 Stouder JAYVEN-ET (EX-94) continues his reign as a breed-leader for\u00a0milk at +2,867 with good solids at +53 pounds Protein and +51 pounds Fat.\u00a0\u00a0At +1.57 PTAT, 7% CE, and +1.0 SCR, JAYVEN is ready to go to work on your\u00a0dairy.<\/p>\n

Joining JAYVEN at the top of\u00a0Select Sires’ active lineup of milk sires is new graduate 7HO9977\u00a0Hunsberger Bolton KINLEY (EX-91) at +2,372 Milk. He, too, offers nice\u00a0solids (+58 Protein, +69 Fat). At +2.01 FLC, +1.29 UDC and an overall type\u00a0score of +1.80 PTAT, KINLEY will sire daughters that are built to work. He also earns the FeedPRO designation, as data shows that he sires the traits\u00a0that are consistent with increased income over feed cost.<\/p>\n

Improve Components and Your\u00a0Bottom Line
\nSelect Sires adds five extremely balanced graduates to the lineup with the\u00a0ability to improve components and your bottom line. These young bulls\u00a0represent five different sires with four carrying the popular FeedPRO\u00a0label.<\/p>\n

7HO9967 Pine-Tree Zenith\u00a0MARQUE-ET (VG-88) has all the credentials to create extreme customer\u00a0satisfaction. A components specialist (+.10% F, +.01% P) with great udders\u00a0(+1.91 UDC) and superior Productive Life (+4.1), he is following closely in\u00a0the footsteps of his sire, 7HO6782 Ocean-View ZENITH-TW-ET. With\u00a0HealthMark, Herdlife Builder, FeedPRO and DIAMOND SELECTion designations\u00a0and an overall type score of +1.65 PTAT, MARQUE will fit into any breeding program.<\/p>\n

Toystory son 7HO9722 Collins-Pride TS JERMIAH-ET (VG-87), another components specialist (+.02%P, +.07% F), graduates from Select’s Program for Genetic Advancement\u2122\u00a0(PGA\u2122) with a solid first proof at 92% Reliability. Carrying the FeedPRO \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 designation as well as HealthMark, Herdlife Builder and DIAMOND SELECTion\u00a0designations, he is producing daughters that are commercially correct\u00a0(+1.79 PTAT, +1.97 UDC, +1.41 FLC). JERMIAH is a Superior Settler, turn to\u00a0him for high fertility to settle cows as the weather begins to warm up.<\/p>\n

A closer look at Mascol son\u00a07HO9989 Morningview MOSEBY-ET shows that he offers a unique mating opportunity\u00a0for all the daughters of 7HO6417 O MAN and PLANET. With pleasing components (+.03% P, +.07% F) and a solid type package (+1.21 PTAT, +1.25 UDC, +1.54\u00a0FLC), he produces daughters with moderate stature (+.14) that are ideal for\u00a0a free stall environment. Adding to his appeal is a Net Merit dollar value\u00a0of +$506 and Productive Life score of +4.0. He carries the FeedPRO logo,\u00a0offers health trait improvement, and is a Superior Settler with low calving\u00a0difficulty (6% CE).<\/p>\n

At 6% Calving Ease, Encino son\u00a07HO10650 Deervue-Acres RENEGADE (VG-86) is a great candidate for many\u00a0heifer programs. RENEGADE offers high components (+.04% P, +.11% F), \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 exceptional feet and legs (+2.96 FLC), snug udders (+1.35) and overall conformation (+1.80 PTAT). As a FeedPRO sire, expect RENEGADE daughters to\u00a0be efficient and profitable.<\/p>\n

Rounding out Select Sires’\u00a0graduating class is a Scoop son, 7HO9724 Clear-Echo Scoop ROBOT-ET (VG-88).\u00a0ROBOT’s dam, Clear-Echo 822 Laudan 1266-ET (EX-91-EX-MS-DOM) was an \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 exceptional brood cow with records over 44,000 pounds of milk and thrived\u00a0in a large commercial environment according to sire analyst Rick VerBeek.\u00a0Based on his linear, ROBOT daughters will do the same. Add in a Net Merit\u00a0dollar value of +$405 and good components (+.03% P, +.07% F), and ROBOT\u00a0makes another great option for commercial operations. Expect medium sized \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 cows (+.87 Stature) with great feet and legs (+1.89 FLC) and quality udders\u00a0(+1.20 UDC).<\/p>\n
