A bull as thick as they come, with a smashing pedigree. He is by Southland Full Throttle (pictured left), who is believed to be one of the most stylish and powerful bulls on the Canadian show circuit of late, as well as achieving the incredible performance of over 400kgs in 200 days and hitting in excess of 800kgs in 400 days a feat repeated by his full brother despite commercial conditions in the 250 cow Southland herd.
Another full brother to the sire is Friarstown Dan Carter, the highest perfoming bull of all breeds in the spring 2009 Tully intake, this bull had a staggering Average Weight Gain of 3 kg/day. Full Throttle calves are easily calved ,have excellent angus charactoristics with high growth rates making him a perfect angus. Idol is the only Full Throttle bull in Ireland and is a gene ireland selected bull.
His Dam comes from the US "Ideal" herd. This family is famous for extreme calving ease followed by supper growth rates and easy fleshing. Idol's full sister Friarstown Ideal was shown in 2009 with great success. He ranks in the top 20% for calving ease ,top 15% for 400 day weight, top 5% for milk and top 10% for Terminal sire index across all angus cattle in the UK.
