LOT 36
We’re proud to be offering a semen package on one of our most reliable herd sires and the 2009 Reserve National Champion LMC ATZ Dr. Feel Good. We do an extensive amount of work with juniors through our LMC Junior Program and Dr. Feel Good is a product of it as he was bred by Jacob Atzenhoffer. We sold Jacob a LMC RFI-Smith Red Bullet daughter as his first LMC show heifer and he took advantage of our free semen offer through our Junior Program, bred her to our LMC EF JW Black bull and out came Dr. Feel Good. We started getting phone calls about this awesome bull calf from friends at the Houston Jr. Show and when the Atzenhoffer Family brought him down for the MAS weekend later that month, we made a deal with the Atzenhoffer Family to buy half of the bull calf and his mother from them. Every year we sell the majority if not all our best females to our juniors and many of them are in the best position to produce the next great one due to our free semen offering and the Atzenhoffer's did just that. This marked the beginning of our partnership with the Steve and Mary Beth Atzenhoffer Family and it has been a pleasure to work with this fine family.
Dr. Feelgood is sired by the legendary LMC EF JW Black who is a 3/4 Simmental x 1/4 Brahman bull that had a tremendous impact on our program. He did as much as any sire in terms of modernizing the look of our cattle putting an attractive front end on them while retaining a stout rear end to go with it. With that said, JW Black cattle have gone on to have much success in various arenas and include the likes of LMC Miss Diva, LMC HS Rocco and so many more. What a pedigree on the bottom side of Dr. Feel Good, you have the timeless LM She Moves cow and the ever productive LM Rob's Muneca 3E/89 as well as the Rob, Money and Bravo bulls who can be found in the foundation of several of our most productive and profitable cows. Add all this up and combine them with the 2005 International Champion Bull LMC RFI-Smith Red Bullet who is out of one of the rare back-to-back International Champions HR Power House I and you have a solid and predictable line of genetics to lean on. You can go into several more individuals in Jacobs Muneca's pedigree but those are some of the heavyweights that have done a lot for us and the breed in terms of producing the type of cattle that are not only in line with the industry needs but do their share of moving the needle forward.
Dr. Feel Good was named Reserve National Champion in Ft. Worth out of a tough set of bulls that included the likes of LMC Soldier and LMC HS Rocco as a calf and turned heads that year with his length, bone and stoutness. This wide based bull, with a great look sold 6 breeding shares at just a year of age for $1,250 a piece in the MAS Simbrah Sale IV. His most notable progeny are the 2011 National Champion LMC Arcadio bull who sold to Rancho La Reforma, LMC Miss America who was a champion for our partners Hidden Oaks Cattle and is now a donor, as well as the many times champion LMC LN Blackberry for Victoria Villanueva and our long-time friend Santos Escobar. A Dr. Feelgood granddaughter recently won the 2018 TJSSA Futurity “State Show” for Kate Berry. BUY WITH CONFIDENCE, HE CAN HIT THE HOME RUN YOU’RE LOOKING TO PRODUCE.
