I had to beg my father, Carson, to consign this outstanding female. Miss WCC Marisol 79/4 is one of the most complete and powerful females from our 2014 gray calf crop. We think she has the look and genetics to be a “game changer” for her future owner and everyone who has visited the ranch agrees. You will find very few females that are this massive in their muscle pattern. “Marisol” stands with a tremendous amount of width of base from the ground up, she is big topped, bold sprung and deep sided while remaining feminine. Her desirable disposition and unique pigmentation are an added bonus!
We love “Marisol” not only for her powerful design but powerful pedigree. “Marisol” is out of the matriarch in our grey herd, Dream Ranch 305 (a 16 year donor). Dream Ranch 305 combines some of our favorite V8 and Tic Tac Toe Ranch genetics so it is only fitting “Marisol” is one of our leading consignments to the Tic Tac Toe Ranch and Friends Genetic Advantage Sale. The Tic Tac Toe 419 cow was a top producer for Dream Ranch back in the 90’s, you can find breed greats like +TTT Suva Rambo 845 “Rambo” and +MN Red Mayro 257 in her pedigree. On the top side, the Dream Ranch cow is sired by Dream Boy “Navasota” 89/1 who is a sired by +Mr. V8 189/4 and out of the famous +Miss V8 423/4 (one of the maternal greats in the breed sired by +Mr. V8 666/3).
The sire of “Marisol”, JDH San Antonio 881/4 was bred by Mark Forgason of J.D. Hudgins Inc. JDH San Antonio is a +JDH Elmo Manso 309/4 son and out of a +JDH Atlas Manso 328 daughter (our favorite cow in Mark’s herd) . This bull died at a very young age and very few progeny will ever be offered for sale, Miss WCC Marisol 79/4 is one of only 4 JDH San Antonio sired progeny we will sell.
We think so highly of Miss WCC Marisol 79/4 that Watkins Cattle Company is retaining two IVF procedures at the convenience and agreed upon time with the new owner. These are our most desired genetics and it will be hard for us to part with “Marisol.” “Marisol” has been started on a show ration and daily show regiment.
