What will Diamond D Angus Genetics do for you Diamond D Angus would like to thank all of our past and future customers for believing in and supporting our program. Some might say we are out of the main stream. We have chosen to put a lot more emphases on functional and economic traits rather than EPD’s. During the 1980’s, cattle were being bred to look like race horses – all legs and no guts. Many of the functional traits were left behind in the race for big numbers. We did not follow this trend; instead, choosing to breed for just classic Angus traits. While we have not bred cattle for carcass numbers, our ultrasound numbers are very good. This is an indication that just good basic Angus have always had good meat quality. Our commercial industry needs great cattle, not cattle with great numbers. Breeding cattle with great numbers is easy. Breeding great cattle is a challenging task. Mark DeBoo 4092 Valier-Dupuyer Road 1-406-279-3633 1-406-799-3480 cell dda@3rivers.net u Consistency - Diamond D Angus genetics will breed more true - - due to the many years of intensive line breeding. u Calving ease - We have always put emphases on good calving ease. We typically will not use a bull on cows that we would not also use on first calf heifers. u Carcass - Ultrasound has proven that DDA cattle excel in the grass fed beef industry, and as always, are still suitable for the feed lot. Diamond D Angus cattle have proven to be consistently superior in tenderness. u Efficiency - For many years, the cows and calves have been weighed at weaning and condition scores are given. Typically our cows are weaning calves weighing 50% of their own weight or greater. We prefer a 4-frame cow weighing 1200 to 1300 pounds in good flesh. u Longevity - Most traits can be compared to a chapter in a book, but longevity is the entire book. Diamond D Angus has numerous cows that are still in the herd at the age of fifteen and beyond. Don DeBoo 1133 Valier-Dupuyer Road 1-406-279-3563 ddangus@3rivers.net David Christian 1-406-279-3233 1-307-277-2952 cell u Experience - We have the benefit of sixty three years in the cattle business and forty four years in the registered Angus business. As founder and President of Thousand Hills Cattle Company, I have examined over five thousand 100% grass fed cattle over the past five years. The fat open 24 month old heifers Mark ships me every spring are consistently the best cattle I kill each year; excellent marbling and backfat, large ribeyes, calm dispositions, great tenderness and fine muscle texture. My only complaint is that there aren’t enough of them and they make the rest of the fat cattle look bad! In addition to the desirable carcass qualities, because of the tight breeding and ruthless culling over the years, I like all the DDA cattle I’ve seen at their sales - they would all work perfectly in my program. Please consider using DDA bulls, especially if you are in MN or the Dakotas, because I want to purchase more DDA bred fats and yearlings.

When we saw this great pedigree, we thought what an opportunity to continue lining up the same goodness Fahren came from. His dam is line bred good old Wye and Rito 707. She is truly a great maternal cow. u His sire, Lodge of Wye, is one of the very few sires proven genetic defect free. Lodge of Wye also ranks #2 in the entire breed for $EN. u Co-owned with Hyland Angus. Rick used this bull in South Dakota in the spring. As a yearling, we used him as clean up at DDA. I believe he has gained weight the entire time. u Across the board his ultrasound numbers looked great, including tenderness at a 26 and all other categories in the blue. u The average birthweight on his 49 bull calves at DDA is 76 pounds and his 46 heifer calves averaged 73 pounds. u Semen Available u Sons Selling: 4K, 8K, 10K, 11K, 12K, 21K, 25K, 41K, 46K, 53K, 56K, 63K, 80K, 83K, 86K, 105K, 106K, 107K, 125K, 130K, 132K, 137K, 139K, 146K, 148K, 151K.

He was considered to be one of the best bulls in the breed in the 70’s. Many of the good Angus cattle had Lodge influence at that time. Lodge of Wye sold at auction in 1968 for an impressive $250,000 for 2/3 interest. That may be a record that still stands, I’m not sure. Lodge became very popular and used extensively across the Angus breed. He was the performance bull of his time. u His daughters are nearly perfect on udder quality. They are very good mothers with great temperament. The phenotype is almost flawless. u Lodge is one of twelve bulls in the entire Angus breed proven genetic defect free. u We are very proud to be offering 60 grandsons of Lodge and 6 great grandsons. Many of these trace to Lodge multiple times. u We are honored to have both DDA Lodge E5H and Hyland BC 0668 (both Lodge sons) call Diamond D Angus their home. www.diamonddangus.com
