Pedigree Analysis
Rendezvous (pronounced: rondi-voo) Noun: A meeting at an appointed time and place.
Comestar Outside is a household name in the industry. This Canadian bull saw immense success in his day and joined the elite list of sires who produced and sold over a million units of semen at Semex. Outside daughters generally weren’t stand-out young cows, but proved to be famous for longevity and overall profitability.
Rendezvous’ dam is an wonderful specimen in her own right who looks like 92 points won’t stop her. She’ sired by another Canadian legend, Hanoverhill Raider (Starbuck x Mil-R-Mor Roxette EX), who Pete Heffering considered one of the best bulls he ever bred. We haven’t even talked about this incredible maternal line, with his 2nd dam being the EX-95 Liberty Rae, then Lana Rae. These cows have an amazing track-record for transmitting high type cattle across the globe.
Rendezvous should sire plenty of width and substance.

305-AA is the standardized milk, fat, and protein yield estimate used by CDCB to compare cows of different ages, parities, breeds, and regions on equal footing. According to CDCB and USDA AGIL, it represents “a 305-day lactation record at 36 months of age” — hence “Average Age,” or AA.
It replaced 305-ME (Mature Equivalent) in June 2024 for published records and was implemented in the calculation of CDCB genetic evaluations effective August 13, 2024. ME had been the standard since 1935.
How it is calculated
The new factors are applied as a series of separate multipliers for age-parity, season, previous days open, and milking frequency. Lactation records are adjusted upward or downward to what the cow would have been expected to produce as a 36-month-old, milked twice daily for 305 days.
Key adjustments include:
- Age-parity: Standardized to 36 months rather than ME’s mature range of 61–86 months depending on breed.
- Season/climate: Seasonal effects are now estimated within five regions defined by the average climate zone scores for each state, replacing the old three east-to-west geographic regions.
- Milking frequency: Still standardized to 2x milking, unchanged from ME.
- Previous days open: The methodology for this adjustment is also unchanged from ME.
