Adding another Mr Sam son, Semex continues to show diversity and a product offering that is designed to meet the needs of dairymen everywhere.

0200HO03498 Gillette Winners is a Mr Sam from a VG-88 10* Blitz dam that traces back to Canada's famous Gypsy Grand family. This pedigree offers dairymen the unique opportunity to combine the consistency and reliability of the Gypsy Grand family with an outcross sire in Mr Sam.

"These daughters are deep-ribbed, with good udders that are well-attached. Breeders will appreciate an outcross sire like Winners," says USA Premier™ Consultant Nick Sarbacker. Ranking as the #4 PTAT Mr Sam son, Winners is a Designer Series™ sire that meets the needs of many, arriving at +2.29 PTAT, +2.01 UDC, +2.39 FU Attach, +3.18 RU Width, +2.57 RU Height, with a 6 for Calving Ease and he's also a high fertility Repromax™ sire.

"The Winners are very consistent cows," comments Carl Barclay, Westgen Progeny Analyst. "We see them as having very snug, well-attached mammary systems with correct rumps and feet that track well in all environments." Combining field comments with proof data in Canada show him to be at +104 Herd Life, +106 Calving and Dtr Calving Ability, solid Conf at +14, +13 Mammary System and +9 Dairy Strength.
