MW DNAmite was the exciting high selling bull in the 2018 National Western Angus Bull Sale and maternal brothers include the ABS Global feature, Springfield Ramesses 6124 and the $40,000 high selling bull at the 2018 National Western Foundation Sale, Welytok Prime Divine 6091. His dam has 10 EPD values and bio-economic indexes in the top 1% and the grandam is close behind with nine and they are two of the strongest performance, genomic and phenotype cows in the breed and the strength of the maternal pedigree will determine the consistency of DNAmite's progeny. Few cows in this business can claim a greater spread from Birth Weight EPD to Yearling Weight EPD and the cow family that produced DNAmite does it with regularity along with displaying perfect udders and disciplined cow size combine with body mass and structure. DNAmite has extra length of body, is docile, clean made, smooth shouldered, and is a structurally correct heifer bull backed by all the data progressive commercial and registered breeders are demanding. His sire's contribution is to reduce feed intake (DMI), improve disposition and increase tenderness since he ranks in the top 10% of the breed for genomic scores for all three traits and surprisingly his mature daughters are not big cows. DNAmite was PAP tested by Dr. Tim Holt with a score of 37 at 17 months of age at Fort Collins, Colorado and posted a 6.1 frame score. DNAmite should sire great cows that produce efficient converting bulls and steers with good feet and the marbling score genetics to grade USDA Prime.
