The 165/4 Cow Family
+Miss V8 165/4 Cow Family at V8 RanchOrigins
Born in 1990, +Miss V8 165/4 is a prime example of the outstanding daughters produced by +Mr. V8 666/3. Her dam, +Lady Bevo 910, joined our herd from the Herman Beville Ranch in Florida. Mr. Beville’s cattle had a significant amount of Indu-Brazilian blood, and when the industry shifted to a preference for larger-framed animals, his cattle were right where they needed to be. Our good friend, Marcus Shackelford, was familiar with the Beville herd, and he had identified 910 as its top heifer. He and Sloan bought her for the V8 herd, and the rest is history! +Miss V8 165/4 was selected as the 1992 National Champion in Dallas, Texas, under Guatemalan breeder Neil Potter. In Houston, Judge Johnny Jeffcoat of Louisiana selected her as the 1993 International Champion. In total, +Miss V8 165/4 produced 55 offspring recorded by ABBA. A spinal injury during her early days as a donor female resulted in +Miss V8 165/4 living the rest of her life in isolation at V8 Ranch. For years, Jim and Luann’s view from the window above their kitchen sink was of the majestic 165/4 in her pen. She weighed over 2,100 pounds at maturity.
Lineage
We’ve traced this cow family back to our original 1944 herd, beginning with Miss V8 9th, the 9th Brahman female to wear the V8 brand.
