Progeny from the first two calf crops by Alternative have headlined Angus sales across the nation in 2020 with a son selling two-thirds interest for $72,000 to top the Hawaii Fun in the Sun sale, while a daughter was the $135,000 top-selling full interest heifer calf of the 2020 Vintage Genetic Gold Sale with another heifer calf selling for $60,000 at Four Sons Angus while bred daughters sold half interest for $155,000 in the 2020 Crazy K Sale and half interest for $65,000 in the 2020 Big Event at Express.

The first 18 sons of Alternative, all 2019 spring calves, sold for an average of $11,097 in the 2019 Stevenson Fall Sale where 141 total bull calves sold for an impressive average of $5,265 and included in the sire group were the $62,500 and $37,500 top and second high selling bulls chosen by Grimmius Cattle Co. for their very successful “beef on dairy” program in California.

Alternative was the top-selling bull of his calf crop at Baldridge Brothers when two-thirds interest of him sold for $120,000 in 2018, after his maternal brother Baldridge Command C036 sold two-thirds interest for $155,000 to ABS as their dam’s first natural calf and a flush sister to Alternative topped the 2020 Reverse Rocking R sale at $100,000.

The dam of Alternative is one of the top donor cows at Baldridge Brothers and among the most proven and productive daughters of the legendary ORIgen foundation female sire Hoover Dam and with 86 progeny genomic tested and 13 daughters in production in three herds, she offers a +28 maternal Milk EPD while his maternal brother Baldridge Command has 92 daughters in production in 29 herds to earn a maternal Milk EPD of +27.
