Reference Sires

A vision for superior genetics

Our registered Red Angus herd sires have been time-tested and proven through stringent genetic selection for power, phenotype, maternal strength and solid production numbers. They will produce powerful, stylish, maternal offspring, with the growth, gainability and carcass characteristics the industry demands.

3SCC Domain A163 (#1619642)

Domain’s extreme breed popularity is well deserved. After being used all over the country, his EPD proof has impressed us even more. He has extremely high maternal values with above-average growth and exceptional carcass values. His daughters are phenomenal and he is a foot and udder improver. He reached the status as the No. 1 Red Angus bull for sales at Genex as well as the No. 1 bull for registrations in the Red Angus breed in 2020. Contact Genex/CRI for semen - View Video
