Drover is a direct descendant from the great Crooked Post Stockman 4Z, who was not eligible for semen collection for importing into the UK and Europe. We liked everything about Stockman including temperament, size, structure, fleshing and locomotion. Drover although only a young bull on our first viewing also exhibited early signs of his sires attributes. His sire certainly put his stamp on his progeny. The benefit we also saw so in Drover was his mother, Crooked Post Lass 44W. She had great locomotion, a very good top line with depth and a great udder, she was also from a very strong female line with lots of Drover’s siblings being retained in the herd.

Drover has zero Myostan and is tested clear of genetic defects DS, PHA and TH. When we viewed Drover a year later we decided that he actually had developed well and was as good a bet and possibly better suited to our requirements than his sire Stockman. We at that point decided to collect semen from Drover for importing into the UK and Europe.

We have semen available for sale in the UK that can also be exported into Europe offered in minimum batches of 10 straws. Under strict conditions this semen is also available for commercial use.

Sire - Crooked Post Stockman 4Z

Crooked Post Stockman is a dynamically balanced sire with exceptional prepotency to stamp in maternal calving ease, growth, fleshing ability, docility and overall structural soundness. In addition to recently being ASA nominated into the comprehensive 2018 University of Illinois Sire Test, Crooked Post continue to receive feedback from herds around the world that Stockman is a serious red meat performance bull who will continue to play a large role in many of the herds that utilize his service. After Crooked Post Stockman was analysed and assessed by Ian Walsh of Falkirk Scientific Foundation in New Zealand, Mr. Walsh provided the following summary, "Stockman 4Z appears to be medium framed with excellent depth particularly the shoulder and girth region. His mobility suggests a correct structural configuration with a full but smooth and optimal shoulder formation. Stockman 4Z’s muscularity is ideal with ample expression illustrated. A well-balanced sire that deserves consideration for your stud as an improver."
