Torrisdale Winton 0643 was a stricking calf from day 1 and is still going strong 10 years later. Used with success in the herd he also forged an impressive show record winning many accolades. A strong styly bull showing all the carcass attributes of the breed Winton's sons have preformed across a wide variety of herds.
Torrisdale Abbot 095 has returned to Torrisdale and has been used over stud and commercial cows. Moderately framed and displaying great carcass attributes Abbot has a great temperament and tremendous feet and legs.
Melaleuca Entertainer E39 was purchased earlier this year to acquire semen for importing to New Zealand. He will be used this 2011 mating. He is a moderate, easy doing bull with heaps of presence. His carcass qualities will compliment the Torrisdale herd. Semen will be available for all countries excluding the EU and NZ.

Gnoleda Zac Z24 has been used with success at Torrisdale. Many of his sons have been sold and used in stud herds and commercially while his daughters are now approaching their peak years within the Torrisdale herd. While Zac has great growth EBVs his carcass data is also well above the average.
MELALEUCA GHANDI G112 has been used extensively in the Torrisdale herd. He has left some impressive animals and his eldest daughters who are now approaching 5 years are performing to expectations.
