Success

Our first major banner at a national show came from our herd sire, MAV Legacy 601D ET, when he was named Reserve Calf Champion at the NAILE in 2016. He covered cows as a yearling, then was pulled back into the show barn for just 3 weeks to capture the Iowa Champion Bull honors at the 2017 Iowa State Fair. His half-sister won the female show, and Legacy’s first calf to be exhibited (PAW Highmore Cotton 807) was named Calf Champion in 2018! Every visitor to the farm so far has either purchased Legacy’s progeny or a rack of semen!

In 2017, Addison also captured the IJBBA Hereford Show Heifer Award with BB Cash Diamond 1555, a daughter of Cash Flow. ‘Diamond’ was third in class at the JNHE behind the Division Champion & Reserve; she was undefeated in her division outside of that.

In 2018, we exhibited PAW Comin’ In Hot 712 to Champion honors 11 times, including being selected Grand Champion Overall at the county fair. That was the first time a purebred Hereford had conquered the crossbreds in many years. That calf won the Beef Expo in February and the State Fair in August, an incredible feat regardless of breed. Ironically, that calf was for sale off the farm all summer and fall.
