April 2008 Proof Run (04/08)

54BS374 VIGOR strengthened his grip on his #1 PPR and Net Merit rankings as his daughters mature and keep getting better. Hes very easy to use on a variety of cows. It doesnt matter if you want to improve type, production, or health traits.

54BS317 TD continues to impress as he improved for milk, fat and protein. His daughters have dairy strength, very well attached udders, and great feet and legs. The perfect combination required for longevity and production.

54BS330 DENVER is becoming one of the top choices of breeders that are milking his daughters. Silky dairyness, straight-lined frames, and soft, milky udders make him a world-wide favorite.

54BS304 PERKINS now has nearly 450 daughters milking, most of which are in Italy, where he is ranked #1 for Feet & Legs and in the top 5 for Udder Composite. He's making the right kind for those who desire long-lived, easy to work with cows.

54BS311 SPECIAL now with nearly 1000 daughters world-wide has solidified his role as a balanced bull, making long lived productive cattle.

2007 All-Americans (02/08)

The 2007 All American nominations were released recently, completing the 2007 show season. New Generation Genetics was extremely well represented with an astounding 29 female nominations out of a possible 90. Not only is this 32% of the nominations coming from one sire stud, but it’s also 8 MORE than the next 2 studs combined! Quite an accomplishment considering there are many organizations focusing on “show type”. This is just another example that the philosophy of breeding the “Complete Cow” actually results in type that you can show and cows that will milk.

The sires of the nominations include: Starbuck, Seattle, Premium, Flashback, Vance, Legacy, Denver, Jolt, Big Time, Bonanza, Solution, Deluxe, and Link. This group of sires is a great representation of the Past, Present, and Future of New Generation Genetics.


January Proof Run (01/08)

New Number 1 Net Merit !

54BS374
VIGOR has cracked Beamer's hold on the number 1 Net Merit position...this is despite Beamer increasing $33! Vigor's proof is remarkably balanced, ranking well in nearly every major category. Consider for Active Bulls, Vigor ranks in the Top 10 for Protein, Udder Composite, Somatic Cell, Productive Life and Daughter Pregnancy Rate!

54BS317
TD scored again, improving across the board, and jumps into the Top 10 Net Merit list for the first time! He is also #2 for Type and #3 for DPR and Udder Composite.

54BS330
DENVER more than doubled daughters going over 1100, and maintained his production and type credits, while improving for Udder Composite. Watch for numerous daughters in the show rings,,,and bull mother lists.

206BS10 BEAMER As stated earlier, Beamer released his grip on #1, but he didn't go quietly... In fact, he improved across the board for production, SCS and DPR. He is now the #1 DPR bull with and impressive +1.8, or a half point improvement. He remains the elite bull of the breed for instant fat and protein.

 

As reported in August, Sire Summaries will now be calculated 3 times per year. Release dates are roughly the 2nd Tuesday in January, the first Tuesday in April, and the 3rd Tuesday in August.

 With one less summary, we plan to issue our catalog in January and August, and our popular newsletter in April. We will strive to up-date www.BrownSwiss.com on a regular basis, and send email up-dates on new bulls available.

To be sure to be included in the most recent Brown Swiss news, including new proofs, new young bulls, recent sales and shows, simply send us an email or note to be included on our regular updates and visit BrownSwiss.com regularly. Also, if you have Brown Swiss news, we would love to hear it!
