BLITZ, as he is known, is shown here with his owners, Brian and Wendy Fust. He’s reached a milestone according to Select Sires.

Select Sires is proud to announce an outstanding milestone for 7HO5708 Fustead Emory BLITZ-ET as he recently sold his one millionth unit of semen. “BLITZ has strengthened his position as a truly elite sire because of this milestone,” said Blaine Crosser, vice president dairy sire product line and sales management for Select Sires. “For a bull to sell a million units of semen, he must be long-lived and a superior semen producer. Most importantly, he must transmit performance traits that are high in demand by dairy producers around the globe.”

Brian Fust has been extremely pleased with the success of BLITZ and the entire cow family. Fust also doesn’t mind the attention they receive because of BLITZ. “It’s very rewarding. It’s so fun talking to people about him; the whole experience has been very positive.”
