This 18-Star cow is a linebred Tajima bull with Michifuku as her paternal grandsire, 

Takazakura as her maternal grandsire, and Fukutsuru J068 as her maternal greatgrandsire. 

This donor cow is a half-sib to 18-Star Lot 61 (743T) and paternal sibling to 

Lot 25 and 26 pregnancies. 

JVP Fukutsuru 068 is ranked as the Number 1 Marbling bull in the United States 

in the 2006 US Wagyu Sire Summary published by Washington State University. 

Michifuku is the 3rd highest REA Sire and 8th highest Marbling Sire, 

according to the Interim 2009 US Wagyu Sire Summary. 

This pedigree delivers exceptional marbling ability – great for F1 producers - and, when 

coupled with Itozakura size will generate well-balanced calves for a Fullblood herd. 

BR Ms Michifuku-8614 2660 produced 42 viable embryos in 3 flushes in 2008 

– an average of 14 embryos per flush – and produced 16 unfertilized ova on her last 

flush (possibly due to a problematic batch of semen). 

According to the 2009 LMR Herd Breedplan Report, BR Ms Michifuku-8614 2660 

ranks in the top 5% of the LMR herd in Backfat EPD and in the top 20% in Ribeye Area 

EPD. 

BR Ms Michifuku-8614 2660 demonstrates no 0’s in her GeneSTAR results and 

reports 7 of 8 possible markers for Feed Efficiency markers. 

2660 is bred to Hirashigetayasu J2351 (ETJ001) and due to calve in 

August – she will be able to be flushed in October. 

• Selling flush with minimum guarantee of 5 viable 

embryos. Buyer’s choice of LMR semen. 

LMR Toshiro 1-3 would be an outstanding choice – giving these Tajima 

bloodlines an outcross to the potent double-cross of Dai 7 Itozakura 

bloodlines – and an improvement in growth and size. With this mating, 

the chances of obtaining 16-20 Star progeny are 70%.

BR ms kitateruyasudoi-0632 5612 

This 16-Star cow is a linebred Tajima bull sired by BR Kitateruyasudoi 0632 (Number 4 

in REA and Number 5 in Marbling in the Interim 2009 Sire Summary). 5612 

shows Number 1 Marbling sire, Fukutsuru 068, as her maternal grandsire. Her 

paternal great-grandsire is Michifuku and her maternal great-grandsire is JVP Kikuyasu 

400 – the leading sire in REA and Backfat. 

5612 produced 39 viable embryos in 4 flushes in 2008 – an average of 10 viable embryos 

per flush. BR Ms Kitateruyasudoi-0632 5612 is the ideal type of cow to be 

bred to a sire descending from Dai 7 Itozakura or Dai 20 Hirashige – producing wellbalanced 

progeny exhibiting growth while retaining the Tajima marbling. 

Based on her pedigree, BR Ms Kitateruyasudoi-0632 5612 ranks in the top 13% 

for Marbling according to 2009 Non-Parent EPD’s, as calculated by WSU. According 

to the 2009 LMR Herd Breedplan Report, BR Ms Kitateruyasudoi-0632 5612 

ranks in the top 5% of the LMR herd in 200-Milk EPD. 

5612 is bred to Sanjirou and due to calve in September – she will be 

able to be flushed in November. 



LMR Toshiro 1-3 would be an outstanding choice as an outcross to 

Dai 7 Itozakura bloodlines. Another other choice would be: LMR 

Hirashigetayasu ETJ001-5632 762T, an outcross to Dai 20 Hirashige 

bloodlines. Both these bulls would add size and growth to 5612’s 

potent marbling genetics. 

Terms of donor flushes 

Seller pays all costs associated with the flush with the exception of semen, which is the responsibility 

of the buyer (except where specifically noted). Seller guarantees a minimum of 5 transferable 

grade one or two embryos - and a minimum of 2 pregnancies, if transferred by a licensed embryo 

transfer technician. All embryos above the minimum number are the property of the buyer. In the 

event the minimum number is not achieved on the first flush, another flush will be performed on the 

same cow and the embryos from the first flush will be retained by Lone Mountain Cattle Company.

br ms sanjirou 0630 

This 18-Star Sanjirou daughter shows a double-cross of the famous cow Suzutani in her 

pedigree. According to the Interim 2009 Sire Summary, Sanjirou is the Number 4 

Marbling Sire in the U.S. Her maternal granddam, Heatherkura, is a full sister to the 

outstanding sire, Shigeshigetani. 0630 is linebred Tajima carrying maximal marbling 

genetics. 

0630 is a maternal half-sib of Bar R Fukutsuru 36H – sire of LMR Yojimbo, high selling lot 

of LMR 2008 Sale ($35,000) and LMR Yojimbo 2 ($15,000). 

BR Ms Sanjirou 0630 produced 26 viable embryos in 4 flushes in 2008 – she 

produced 17 viable Yojimbo embryos in her last flush in August. Her last calf, LMR 

Ms Itomichi-4632 747T, is an 18-Star heifer and an outcross to the superior growth 

genetics of Dai 7 Itozakura. 

According to the 2009 LMR Herd Breedplan Report, BR Ms Sanjirou 0630 ranks in 

the top 20% of the LMR herd in IMF% EPD. Based on her pedigree, BR Ms Sanjirou 

0630 ranks in the top 11% for Backfat according to 2009 Non-Parent EPD’s, as 

calculated by WSU. 

0630 carries all 2 markers for each of the 4 Feed Efficiency Genes, as identified by 

GeneSTAR. 

0630 is bred to Hirashigetayasu J2351 (ETJ001) and due to calve in 

June – she will be able to be flushed in September. 



LMR Toshiro 1-3 would be an outstanding choice – giving these Tajima 

bloodlines an outcross to the potent double-cross of Dai 7 Itozakura 

bloodlines – and an improvement in growth and size. As an alternative, 

LMCC could offer Itoshigefuji TF147 straws to accomplish the same 

outcross.

Bar r ichiro 32r - son of Bar R miss 2n 

This 21-Star cow is sired by Sanjirou; her maternal grandsire is Michifuku and her maternal 

great-grandsire is Kikuyasu 400. The inbreeding coefficient of this cow is 12.5% due 

to Michifuku’s presence on each side of the pedigree. The influence of Kikuyasu 400 

and Michifuku (#1 and #3 EPD REA Sires according to the Interim 2009 Wagyu 

Sire Summary) and Sanjirou (#4 Marbling Sire) make this cow an elite carcass cow 

in the Wagyu breed. 

Bar R Miss 2N is the natural dam of Bar R Ichiro 32 R and Bar R Jiro 22T - both of 

these bulls are 21-Star, according to GeneSTAR. Cattle Development Center of Custer, 

Montana purchased Bar R Ichiro 32 R, to start their composite breed (“Montana 

prime”). 

Bar R Miss 2N has not previously been flushed. She has a heifer calf at her side and 

has been pulled out of Bar R Cattle Company’s fall breeding herd to be placed at 

Western Genetics Quarantine Facility in Idaho for flushing by Galen Lusk, DVM. 

This is an opportunity to obtain genetics from a cow with high Marbling and high REA EPD 

parentage as well. Bar R Miss 2N has high Gene Star numbers and the potential of 

maximal GeneSTAR calves. 


embryos - with a guarantee of a minimum of 2 live 

calves if transferred by a licensed embryo transfer 

technician. Seller pays all flush cost. The buyer pays 

for all freezing and transfer costs. Any embryos over 

and beyond the guaranteed number are the property 

of the buyer. 

Buyer has free choice to any semen in the 2008 BR2 Wagyu Genetics, 

LLC semen catalog or semen from original bulls in BR2’s tank. If the 

buyer prefers a bull outside of Bar R or BR2 program, the buyer will 

need to provide the semen.

BR Ms Takazakura 0652 is a 19-Star cow by Takazakura and shows Fukutsuru 068 as her maternal 

grandsire. A flush to 0652 sold at 2008 Sale for $16,000 and produced 17 embryos for 

the buyer. A heifer pregnancy out of 0652 by Sanjirou sold for $10,500 and four of 

her embryos by Sanjirou sold for $10,000. 

0652’s great-grandsire, Yasufuku J930, is arguably the most famous of all Japanese Wagyu bulls – he 

sired all 3 of the top marbling sires in Japan, according to the 2001 Japan Sire Summary. In 2007, at 

the 9th Zenkyo (All-Japan Wagyu Competition), his name appeared in the pedigree (as grandsire or greatgrandsire) 

of all of the 3 winners and 3 runners-up. 

BR Ms Takazakura 0652 produced 78 viable embryos in her last 2 flushing seasons (2006-2008). Out 

of these flushes, 0652 produced two 14-Star heifer calves both showing, in addition to the Marbling and 

Tenderness Markers – 8 out of 8 possible Feed Efficiency Stars – making those 2 calves perfect 22-Star 

animals. A 21-Star bull calf (LMR Saijou 795T) will be sold in the 2010 Sale. 

In addition, BR Ms Takazakura 0652 has produced Two 21-Star and Three 20-Star calves. Two calves 

sold in 2008: 20-Star LMR Kagemusha 639S ($15,000) and 19-Star LMR Kagemusha 2 

638S ($12,500). Another son is included in this sale: 19-Star Jiro 711T (Lot 42). 

According to the 2009 LMR Herd Breedplan Report, BR Ms Takazakura 0652 ranks in the top 10% of 

the LMR herd in 400-Day Weight EPD, and in the top 20% for 600-Day Weight EPD. Based on pedigree 

BR Ms Takazakura 0652 ranks in the top 15% for Marbling according to 2009 Non-Parent EPD’s, 

as calculated by WSU. 

BR Ms Takazakura 0652 has all of the quality grade and tenderness genes showing at least a single 

marker (No 0’s in the GeneSTAR results) and reports 7 of 8 possible markers for Feed Efficiency genes. 

BR Ms Takazakura 0652 is bred to Sanjirou and due in June. 

• One-half interest in this donor cow, with possession remaining 

with LMR, is offered. The Sanjirou calf will become the property of 

the buyer of this lot. All further embryos and calves will be split

by Michifuku, Sanjirou, JVP Fukutsuru 068, Takazakura, Kikuhana, 

Yasufuku Jr., and JVP Kikuyasu 400. 

In the 2008 Production Sale, the high priced heifer calf was sold for 

$17,000. 

• The buyer of this lot receives full 

possession and all rights to the prized 

heifer chosen. Choice must be made by 

November 30, 2009 – and calf will be 

weaned and trucked to your location, 

free of charge. We will be happy to 

assist you in picking her out.

This 15-Star Haruki II daughter shows legendary JVP Fukutsuru J068 as her maternal grandsire. Haruki II is ranked as the Number 5 Sire in REA EPD in the Interim 

2009 Sire Summary. 20606’s maternal great-grandsire is JVP Kikuyasu 400, the largest Wagyu bull ever exported from Japan and Number 1 Sire in REA & 

Backfat. 

BR Ms Haruki II 2606 is a granddaughter of Monjiro who is linebred to Tajima J105, a foundation sire of the highly marbling Tajima line of Wagyu. 2606 has been used 

in the LMR program as both producer and recipient cow – she has also produced an 18-Star AI daughter by BR Takazakura-0606 3612. 

BR Ms Haruki II 2606 is a linebred Tajima and would pair well with a Dai 7 Itozakura line bull – adding growth to her strong marbling bias. {LMR Toshiro 723T would 

be a terrific flushing choice.} 

LMR Ms Itozurudoi 8164U is a 7-month old heifer sired by Itozurudoi TF151 - an outstanding sire about whom Wagyu authority Shane Lindsay, has said: “Itozurudoi 

TF151 beat Michifuku in every statistical category in comparing Full Blood Wagyu carcasses. By the time his progeny were tested, and his value discovered, however, he 

was deceased – resulting in a very limited supply of semen.” 

LMR Ms Itozurudoi 8164’s donor (or genetic dam), CF 503, was sired by Itoshigenami TF148 – another of Mr. Shogo Takeda’s influential sires and about whom it 

has been written: “TF148 is a medium-framed bull with excellent confirmation. He is 75% Tajima and 25% Fujiyoshi and is used to induce maternal characteristics while 

enhancing carcass quality.” 

Two TF151 pregnancies sold at the LMCC’s First Production Sale (2008) for $10,000 apiece – a live TF151 heifer calf (CHR Ms Itozurudoi 288) sold for $17,000. 8164U is 

a paternal sister to Lot #10A and a full ET sister to Lots 50 & 51. 

According to the 2009 LMR Herd Breedplan Report, BR Ms Haruki II 2606 ranks in the top 10% of the LMR herd in 200-Day Milk EPD. 

• She sells open & ready to flush with LMR Ms Itozurudoi 8164U ET Heifer calf by her side.

This 13-Star granddaughter of Michifuku traces back to Dai 7 Itozakura on her maternal side. BR Ms Michifuku-1628 4624 appears to be well-constructed: 50% 

Tajima, 25% Itozakura and 25% Kedaka and her 3-generation pedigree shows Monjiro, Hirashigetayasu (ETJ001), Itohana (son of Dai 7 Itozakura) and JVP Kikuyasu 

400. 

4624 has been used in the LMR program as both producer and recipient cow – and has also produced a 15-Star AI bull calf by BR Itomichi-0602 4632. 

LMR Itozurudoi 8161U is a 7-month old bull calf sired by Itozurdoi TF151. This 16-Star bull calf is a paternal brother to Lot 9A and to Lots 50 & 51. A 6-month 

old TF151 bull, (CHR Itozurudoi 300) at the LMCC’s First Production Sale (2008) for $9,000. 

8161U’s maternal granddam is Hikokura 1/10 – whose genetics represent the main line of cattle at MR. Shogo Takeda’s farm in Hokkaido, Japan – Hikokura 1/10 is an 

extremely large Wagyu cow, weighing 1500 lbs. Mr. Takeda has said of this line: “Great genetics, with an extremely large body frame, great marbling, and good at raising 

calves with plenty of milk.” 

8161U’s MGS, Itoshigenami TF148, was sired by Shigeshigenami – who traces back twice to his sire, Shigekananami, the bull who made the Kumanami line of Tajima 

famous. This family has extremely potent marbling genes. 

According to the 2009 LMR Herd Breedplan Report, BR Ms Michifuku-1628 4624 ranks in the top 5% of the LMR herd in Yield % EPD, and in the top 20% in 600- 

Day Weight EPD.

This 14-Star linebred Tajima daughter of JVP Kikuyasu 400 produced 50 embryos in four 

flushes in 2008. JVP Kikuyasu 400 was the largest Tajima bull exported from Japan. 

Michifuku is the Maternal Grandsire of 4602, and is said to be one of the finest of the Tajima 

line of Wagyu bulls. 

BR Ms Kikuyasu 4602 is a paternal sister to the dams of: BR Ms Fukutsuru 9671 (sold for 

$9,000 in ’08 sale); Bar R Miss 24H (sold for $12,500 in ’08 sale); BR Ms Hirashigo 9644 

(who sold with heifer calf-by-side in ’08 Sale for $8,000); and BR Ms Michifuku 8608 

(mother of BR Ms Yasufuku 0609, who calved two Lone Mountain 20-Star Bulls, including 

’08 Sale topper LMR Yojimbo - selling for $35,000). 4602’s dam is a maternal sibling of 

20-Star Bar R 12P Takazakura – now deceased – one of LMCC’s premier herd sires. 

A set of 5 BR Ms Kikuyasu 4602 embryos by Itoshigefuji TF147 sells as Lot #34. 

This Tajima breeding lends itself to either out-crossing to Dai 7 Itozakura growth genetics or 

to further Tajima linebreeding, utilizing Shigeshigetani, Yasufuku or Kitateruyasudoi ETJ003 

genetics. Either way, this cow will allow the Wagyu producer to expand and multiply his/her 

herd in a rapid fashion. 

According to the 2009 LMR Herd Breedplan Report, BR Ms Kikuyasu 4602 ranks in the 

top 20% of the LMR herd in 200-Day Milk EPD. Based on pedigree, 4602 ranks in the top 

1% for Backfat according to 2009 Non-Parent EPD’s.

Yasufuku J930 - Maternal great Grandsire of 4644

pair in the 2008 Sale at $24,500. Another paternal sister, BR Ms Itomichi-0602 6620, sells 

as Lot #12. Many other paternal sisters are highly prized and active cows in the LMCC Wagyu 

program.

the top 5% of the LMR herd in Yield % EPD, and in the top 10% in Birthweight EPD. Based on 

pedigree, 4644 ranks in the top 24% for REA according to 2009 Non-Parent EPD’s. 

A set of 5 embryos out of BR Ms Itomichi-0602 4644 by Takazakura sells as Lot #36.
