We were travelling in Eastern Ohio, crossed into Pennsylvania by Youngstown, and visited the farm of Tom and Amy Colpetzer, Greenville PA, intending to see their son George's "Kit Kat P" (EX95%) cow in her working clothes.     Once at the farm, we discovered a surprise-- Tom had picked up the last sons of Kevin Williams' S TOPS IMPRESSIVE cow, uniquely sired by Piedmont Amedeo Devine (more later).

Like Tom, we concluded that one brother was superior in his individual conformation to the other, and he became the focus of our interest:  IMPRESSIVES DEVINE.

The following season, after he had calves on the ground, we again visited Tom's, and decided, as the Colpetzer family had already, that "DEVINE" is a "breeding bull".    

Several heifers sired by "DEVINE" have been shown in the 2008 season, including a quartet that went to the Ohio Spring Spectacular and all placed in the top ten of their respective classes. 

   More information follows below.    Phenotypically, this is a bull who can put "type" back into the more common offspring of "Jace", for example, where a leaner neck, more substance of bone, and softer fore udder is desired.
