We have been fortunate to breed and own some of the best bulls in several beef breeds over the past 50 years. The best one we have been involved with is Ward's Bravo 1/09. He also is the best beef bull I have ever seen in the 50 plus years we have been in the purebred business. West Ward bred him. We have sold over $600,000 worth of semen with a nominal percentage of it being used in the Brahman World. Bravo has been used very successfully in several American breeds.
Bravo is one of the youngest bulls to enter the prestigious ABBA Register of Renown and did so with just seven progeny. He sired BR-GB Warrior 666 who won the International Show in Houston and went on to be very productive for our friends at Santa Elena Ranch. He produced lots of Brahman and Percentage Simbrah champions and is still doing so for the Carriere and Schulte Families.
Bravo is a great choice to breed to some of today's red cattle as he will add performance, power, correctness, bone, breed character, length, depth, a flat hip, infuse new blood and keep them solid red. He had scurs that were loose so he could be used in a polled program.
The best set of beef calves I have ever seen were 47 F-1 Simbrah calves sired by Bravo and 47 different Simmental cows that were sired by 36 different Simmental bulls. Their 205 day adjusted weaning weights averaged 786 lbs. They sold every calf to one breeder for a big premium right off the cows. Our good friends Bob & Nina Lundgren from Washington produced them. They were all red or red baldies and were phenomenal.
Bid with confidence as this will be a great investment. Bravo is one of the most well known bulls in the Brahman breed and should increase the consumer demand of your next calf crop.
