EPITOME

Epitome represents the work of many years of selection for reproductive characteristics. In 1993 visitamos la Cabaña Shoshone Angus de Larry Leonhardt en Wyoming, llevaba adelante un gran trabajo de selección, based on linebreeding and inbreeding and where the selection objectives were to have a functional cow, maternal, of excellent reproduction and that was totally predictable, very pushy individuals.

From that visit we came with 6 heifers and a bull, along with Horacio Hernandez, Carlos Gaccio Cabaña El Amanecer y Cabaña Don Cirilo, that we made up Enrique and Juan Martín Narbaitz and that same day we added Fabbián SCA.

Desde ese entonces hay una línea Shoshone en mi rodeo.

La madre de Epítome, RP 147, viene de una vaca adquirida a El Hinojo, the 6118, de gran producción y muy longeva, by El Abra Haymount 4180.

El padre de Epítome, Wyoming 212, es hijo de Shosone 99339, en una sobresaliente vaca, RP 125, hija de Chaí (Haymount 4180 by Shoshone Marias 6681).

Quiero destacar que Shoshone 99339 es la 10ª generación de selección por reproducción en Shoshone Angus y cuyo padre, Shoshone Echo 1702 already had a consanguinity index of 38,96%. This index is higher in the 99339.

Ha sido usado en servicio natural y en rodeos de referencia y sobre vacas de 3 or more deliveries (Cabin Flowers Girls of Areco) average 34,9 kg birth weight, and a 60% of chosen over males for future bulls (Choice by type). To be able to test a bull in such a rodeo, with such high demand, It is really a pleasure and a great personal satisfaction for the trust they place in my choices.. And of course, always with confidence and knowing that one must provide solutions, give great importance to the basic things of breeding and impact the population in the best way.
