From Hoover Angus - 

Empire is our “go to” heifer bull! He is an ultra-calving ease bull that boasts CED and CEM EPDs in the top percentiles of the breed! Better yet, these cattle that have explosive weaning growth. In our 2023 spring crop, Empire sired the #1 weaning weight heifer and the #2 weaning weight bull! In our fall 2023 crop, Empire had the #1 weaning weight bull of the entire crop at 875 pounds (an ET calf) and among the non-ET calves, he sired the heaviest two bulls!

One of the best things about Empire's progeny is their growth curve that gives our customers accelerated early growth with a respectable mature size, so Empire's daughters won't be too big and harsh on feed resources! An ideal scenario for commercial cattlemen selling their calves by the pound at weaning and retaining replacement daughters!

Our February 4, 2025 sale has numerous photo feature sons and daughters of Empire, as well as bred heifers carrying his service.

For those interested in the new Functional Longevity EPD (FL), Empire ties as the highest Hoover-owned sire with a +1.22 FL EPD.

Empire isn't your typical “calving ease” bull lacking muscle — he scanned a 15.1” ribeye to have 1.17” of ribeye per hundred pounds of body weight! His carcass EPDs are favorable for producers feeding out their calves and selling on a grade and yield grid.

Empire daughters in production have picture-perfect udders and look like their udders will be very long-lasting as nice of udder suspension and teat size as what they have. These young cows were easy fleshing and had great breed-back rates as wet two-year-olds.

As a yearling bull, Empire froze semen at CGS, then serviced heifers at Mogck & Sons, then came to Hoover Angus for natural service duties. The same plan for 2022-2024 unfolded, with hundreds of units of semen being sold throughout the Midwest, including to repeat customers who used Empire his first year.

Empire's dam is an 11th generation Eraline female to be bred, born and raised by Mogck & Sons. Empire had a light birth weight of 62 pounds followed by an 816-pound weaning weight, WR 116, YW 1462 lbs., YR 110.
