Hoffman Ranch Fall Bull Sale

Page 1


welcome

Fellow Cattlemen,

Welcome to our annual fall 2024 bull sale. 2024 has been a great year for cattleman as prices continue to hold and look promising into the future. We have seen the best value for our cattle in history. For our part of the country and a lot of other cow country, we started with excellent moisture and as much feed as most of us have seen in a long time. It is dry here now, but we have a great feed supply.

We are excited about this offering as it is easily the deepest, most complete set we have ever offered. We have worked hard to continually breed cattle with the values commercial cattleman need as we continue to place selection pressure to ensure great quality and structure.

Again this year, we are offering an excellent set of black baldie bred heifers. They were raised by Bob Miller and Sons and are all out of high maternal Hoffman Hereford bulls. These heifers pregged 97% in less than a 60-day period. We will also have 65 straight black two-year-olds coming with their second calf bred to Polled Hereford bulls produced in the Hoffman program. This is a very fertile set of young cows, and we just weaned a high-quality set of young calves. All females are carrying only one iron.

As cattleman, we are in an exciting time and we look forward to many years with our valued customers.

SIRE OF LOTS 1-6 Bar None is owned with Genex and Hilltop Angus in Montana. He was the high seller in our fall bull sale two years ago. To me, he’s as complete of a bull as 3839 has produced. There is absolutely no fall out in his calf crop. They are wide, thick, and dense. The

SIRE OF LOTS 7-16 Thedford sold in our 2021 spring sale for $200,000 making him the second highest selling bull we have ever sold. He is about as proven as we can make one at this point. His sons topped some of the leading bull sales across the nation last spring and his daughters are absolutely what we strive for. They are maternal as can be, have great udders, and are easy to handle.
