+Mr. V8 146/8

“Sloan”

3 Time International Champion Bull

Sire: +Mr. V8 458/7
Dam: +Miss V8 805/6
From the V8 Ranch Cow Family: +Miss V8 805/6

+Mr. V8 146/8 entered the Brahman scene with a bang, becoming the first and only Brahman bull to win the International Brahman Show three times. He brings thickness and muscle, power for days, soundness, and excellent breed character all while maintaining acceptable birth weights on his calves. “Sloan’s” calves are consistently high quality, with excellent feet and legs, muscle, thickness, and style.

After years without a name, in early 2021, we decided to name him after our beloved patriarch, Sloan Williams because both he and +Mr. V8 146/8, were the best of the best. In 2022, +Mr. V8 146/8 was inducted into the ABBA Register of Renown. He is one of the youngest bulls to ever receive this honor. Also, in 2022, his progeny won the National Champion Get of Sire.

Mr. V8 872/8

Sire: +Mr. V8 380/6 “The Machine”
Dam: Miss V8 952/6
From the V8 Ranch Cow Family: +Miss V8 805/6

Mr. V8 872/8 is a son of +Mr. V8 380/6 and out of Miss V8 952/6, one of our top donors and a full sister to +Miss V8 805/6, who is the mother of +Mr. V8 146/8 “Sloan.” This pedigree makes 872/8 a full brother in blood to many V8 greats, such as Mr. V8 365/8 “Tank” and the past National Champion Female, +Miss V8 293/8. He is the only 380 son that will be represented in the stall party this year.

Mr. V8 979/8

“Checkmate”

Sire: +Mr. V8 146/6 “Sloan”
Dam: Miss V8 52/8
From the V8 Ranch Cow Family: Marri Holly

Sired by +Mr. V8 146/8 “Sloan” and out of a top daughter of +Mr. V8 380/6. He is from the storied Marri Holly cow family at V8 Ranch.

He’s dark pigmented, heavy muscled, and has all the strengths you’d expect from the cross of two heavy hitters in our herd, Sloan and 380. Strong and level down his topline with plenty of meat and muscle, plus the balance and eye appeal that we’ve bred into these cattle for over 75 years.

Mr. V8 934/8

“Otis”

Sire: +Mr. V8 458/7 “Noble”
Dam: +Miss V8 293/8
From the V8 Ranch Cow Family: +Miss V8 805/6

For years the +Miss V8 805/6 cow family has been one of the most closely guarded lines at V8, and for good reason! The headliner of the group, +Mr. V8 146/8 “Sloan” is the breed’s only 3 time International Champion. Here’s a three-quarter brother to “Sloan” that also brings in a shot of 380 through his dam, the 2015 National Champion Female, +Miss V8 293/8. His full sister, Miss V8 62/8, was the 2020-2021 ABBA Show Female of The Year. Mr. V8 934/8 is a 5-time class winner including winning the class at the 2022 National Brahman Show. He’s a massive bull – thick and beefy. This special pricing will expire after the stall party.

Mr. V8 61/9

Sire: +Mr. V8 933/7
Dam: Miss V8 682/6
From the V8 Ranch Cow Family: +Miss V8 165/4

Mr. V8 61/9 epitomizes the innovative breeding strategies of V8 Ranch as a V8 Superblend™, uniting the esteemed +Miss V8 571/3 and +Miss V8 165/4 cow families through his sire, +Mr. V8 933/7 “Yeti,” the ABBA Sire Summary’s top-ranked bull for Weaning Weight. His Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs) showcase a well-balanced set of traits, with a Birth Weight (BW) EPD of 2.1, and his weaning and yearling weight EPDs placing him in the top 5% and 10% of the breed, respectively. His Milk EPD, ranking in the top 5%, underscores the influence of his dam, Miss V8 682/6, herself a progeny of the Maternal Performance sire, (=)Mr. V8 332/4, and the granddaughter of International Champion female, +Miss V8 143/6. Beyond his impressive genetic credentials, Mr. V8 61/9’s phenotype — marked by a muscular build and a neat sheath — exemplifies the breed’s physical ideals, affirming his role as a standout representative of Brahman excellence in both genetic merit and physical presence.
