These families have bred an unrivaled number of sale toppers, Royal Show Champions and Breedplan performers. Hundreds of progeny have made their way into studs around the country and have made a real impact in their new herds. Our cows and calves will dazzle you - there s quality in every lot. Their tight calving intervals; ability to breed predictability into their progeny; their A+ udder shape; volume and maternal strength will all add value to your herd. We re letting go some cracker calves on these dams and they won t disappoint as they mature. The PTIC heifers demonstrate our commitment to herd fertility - they re moderate framed with perfect teat size and shape and temperament (as with all the Palgrove cattle) is a feature. They ve been bred to some of the most exciting new generation of sires we have ever introduced into our herd. Read through the descriptions of these sires in the catalogue pages and you ll see why we re excited about the impact they re going to have in the future. Be the first in the country to access them. It s hard to know what to say about the stylish line of Show Prospects offered in this sale - they will simply blow you away.

palgrove S EXCLUSIVE SIRES Silverstream Holster (P) When we first saw Holster (P) as a yearling bull, (his sire needs no introduction) - and then saw his dam at Silverstream stud, NZ, we knew we had to have him! Palgrove owns the exclusive Australian semen rights in Holster. Holster s first progeny have exceeded our expectations. Bulls are thick and powerful with natural performance, but also show that much desired softness. His daughters are really feminine and eye catching - check out his daughters in this sale (they are magnificent). His EBVs rank him in the top 5% of the breed for 200D and top 10% for 600D Wt, Milk, EMA and Fat Cover. He adds the necessary grunt needed in polled cattle, as well as softness. He s a big player in our breeding programme. Sire of seven heifers and joining sire of four females in this sale. Also selling a one off semen package in this sale. Pleasant Dawn Chisum 216A(P) We travelled to Canada looking for a calving ease bull that didn t compromise on performance and our No 1 choice was Chisum. We were fortunate enough to be able to secure the Australian semen rights. Chisum s Canadian EPDs are exceptional - he s a true curve bending sire. He ranks in the top 10% for Birth Wt; top 4% for Weaning Wt; top 2% for Yearling Wt; top 3% maternal and 15% for EMA. His first son to sell in Canada in 2016 topped the Pleasant Dawn Sale at $30,000. He is still their main heifer bull. Our first calves are due in 2017, so we are giving you the very first opportunity to secure your piece of this exciting sire. Fourteen heifers in this sale sell PTIC to Chisum (P). 6
palgrove S EXCLUSIVE SIRES Silverstream Evolution (P) This is our first release of females by our awesome polled New Zealand sire, Evolution. He has proven himself to be a standout performer at Palgrove, the Silverstream herd, NZ, as well as North America. His progeny have exceptional carcass shape; bone; structure and breed character plus that grunt that we look for in our polled cattle. We love his daughters - they are simply outstanding and account for a high percentage of our replacement heifers. Their substance, maternal traits and overall quality are unequaled. At our Bull Sale in 2016, eight sons sold to a top of $50,000 and averaged $17,500. Commercial cattlemen love them! Evolution sons and grand sons will have a major influence in our herd over the next few years. Sire of eight heifers and joining sire of three females in this sale. Winn Mans Skaggs (P) I toured Charolais breeders in Canada in 2015 looking for a Charolais sire that would meet the high breeding standards we strive for at Palgrove. I found that bull in Skaggs at arguably Canada s No 1 Charolais herd - Sparrow Farms. Canadian EPDs rank Skaggs in the top 2% for Yearling Wt; top 5% for Weaning Wt; top 3% for EMA & top 15% for Marbling. He sired the high selling Charolais bulls in Canada in both 2015 and 2016 ($107,000). He has now achieved legend status in Canada as one of the most sought after breeding bulls in the country. Cam Sparrow describes his daughters as phenomenal, with exceptional udder type and very easy keeping. His first calves have just hit the ground at Palgrove and are everything we expected them to be. Selling a one off semen package. He s also the joining sire of eight females in this sale. 7

COW FAMILIES Palgrove is firmly committed to the belief that in any livestock enterprise the most critical thing is the establish of consistent and productive cow families. Good individual bulls may come and go, but consistent quality lines of bulls, year after year, can only be bred out of females where selection for maternal strength is a priority. We choose a balance of the most economically important traits and select our females on pedigree, performance (EBVs) and phenotype. Our females must be moderate in frame; have good udder shape; plenty of milk; able to rebreed annually with a calving interval of less than 370 days. Their temperament and doing ability must be immaculate. Our large herd numbers mean we can t carry non performers. As a result, our cow families have rewarded us with reproductive soundness and progeny that have carried the Palgrove brand with pride. The majority of the herd sires selected for use in the stud combine two to three of our most predictable cow families. This is what locks in the consistency to enable us to breed hundreds of bulls year in year out for our stud and commercial clients. In this catalogue we offer you a select Showcase of these highly productive, quality females that are bred out of some our most desirable and profitable cow families. Let our cow families take you to the next stage of your Charolais breeding programme. 15
