Savanna Traveler's dam, is one of our most productive cows. She is truly an "Optimum" type of cow for the Southeastern environment. She is a moderate framed, deep bodied cow that pours out the milk to her calf and breeds back on time year after year. Did we mention the fact that she is also the dam of the bull that topped the 180 Day Canoochee Forage Bull Test in 2006? Don't miss out on this outstanding SimAngus bull. He will make you money on your next calf crop.

Lot 28 is a son of the great GW Lucky Dice 187H. Lucky Dice was genetically ahead of his time in the Simmental breed, as he had tremendous marbling, ribeye area and ease of calving long before all these traits were the emphasized as they are today. This bull's dam is a black 1/8 Brahman, which will offer increased heat and insect tolerance to this bull. He will be easy calving and give loads of hybrid vigor to your next Angus crossed calf crop!
