The iconic SAV Blackcap May 4136 has generated in excess of $8.6 million in progeny sales while being the most influential cow ever to grace the North Dakota pastures of Schaff Angus Valley. This prolific dam has produced an ever growing list of AI sires in the Angus breed including: SAV Resource, Renown, Pedigree, Sensation, Seedstock, and the 2017 record-selling Charlo sons. The female counterparts are just as impressive in production as the herd sires offspring of 4136. She will continue to be the base on which we build the Angus herd of True North Cattle.
