If your quest is extreme Charolais donor power, we know of nowhere that can bring more to the table than Sophie 1020 (Wyoming Wind). She is a little smaller framed, squarer made, registered purebred that is extremely blown apart and extremely muscular.
Her 1st natural calf sold for $6500, we then sold a Purebred White Warrior daughter in Dec 2007 for an average of $3800. Sophie 1020 was the selection of the bred donors in a past Cream of the crop sale for $10,000. She just produced a stout smoky steer out of Smokin Meyer that sold on our Oct 12-2008 Steer and Heifer Auction in Dunlap IA.  If you missed him sale day than  look him up in the winners circle, he's that good!!
