We are a family run cattle operation that calve out approximately 60 red and black purebred Simmentals as well as 90 commercial Simmental / Angus based cows. We market our commercial bred heifers by private treaty every year.
The cattle market is absolutely on fire right now and what a time to be enjoying this long time coming moment in life. Record setting prices for commercial steer calves and out of this world replacement heifer prices. It truly is a great time to be in the cattle industry.
We are thrilled to be sharing with you our 2025 Private Treaty Bulls. The line up is solid from one end to the other. The red division you will see a group of performance bulls sire GFD Capitalist 10K, and GFD Copyright 9J. These bulls are heavy haired, great footed with that added hip and length. A red calving ease bull sired by LCDR American Red 99E highlights the entire offering with his wicked calving ease numbers and overall performance, all wrapped into a liver red package. The black bulls are some of the very best calving ease bulls we have ever developed. Highlighted by the highly known calving ease specialist Hart State of War.
We strive to have bulls that are structurally sound, docile, fertile, and have a strong maternal background. These bulls are fed with longevity in mind.
If you need any assistance or need anymore information let us know! Stop by for a visit, we’d be happy to show you the bulls and the cow herd.
