Truly a crowd favorite in the yards in Denver 2012. It was said by many who saw him that he is the
most complete bull on display. Big boned, big footed, motley faced, and super hairy and loads of
style. What more could you want in a bull? His dam is truly a diva among prominent donors at

The blonde bombshell. Cattlemen from all walks of life fell in love with 90 Proof in Denver 21012.
He is just so eye appealing. He possesses the great ability to produce great show calves as well
as awesome replacement breeding stock. With that show steer look, 90 Proof was such a hit with
everyone who saw him, that ABS picked him up right away in Denver. “This one should make the
slick shear steers we need in Texas” as said by a reputable cattle producer. While another cattle-
man from Wyoming said, “he is more interested in the females his bull could produce.” This bull
just hits all aspects of the cattle industry. Whether it’s breeding cattle or show worthy livestock we
feel this dual registered individual brings a lot of quality to the table and will produce the right kind
for todays times.

Owners: his sire, Chore Boy is TH and

a double clean bull with this

Semen: $25

Finally a TH Free & PHA Free bull that can show you the power! His calves
come with lots of hair, bone and mass. Hired Man quite possibly might be the
one we all have been waiting for. To top it off, we have seen quite a few baldy
calves out of him. Hired Man calf reports have been between 85 to 95 lbs. and
are very consistent. Hired Man works great on Heat Wave and Heat Seeker
cows, as well as Angus and Shorthorn cows. We’ve found that using Hired
Man on those shorter spined cows that need to be powered up seems to be
working the best. He has sired many great bulls and show calves across the
country and his calves have topped a lot of sales. There is no where to go but
up with this bull. He is definitely living up to his reputation of being one of the
great sires.

that with loads and loads of hair. The bull is

Calving Ease!

Here is an Angus bull that is too good to be true. We find he works real well on 2 year old females and
also has the ability to make very marketable, complete steer calves. His calves have topped sales across
the country in the past few years. He is one of the most used purebred Angus bulls in South Dakota.
This bull puts a big foot, bone and loads of hair in his calves. Cowboy Troy has been a very successful
part of the Trausch Farm breeding program, as well as many top herds across the country. Finally, here is
a Purebred Angus bull that has the ability to make show steers on clubby cows.
