Welcome to Our 34th Annual Bull Sale!
Our 2023 sale bulls are looking great! Many of you know our operations...but for those of you who don't, these are ranch-raised bulls, selected to thrive in many diverse terrains! We have spent a lifetime fine-tuning all the traits bulls need to help us all succeed. Here is your opportunity to select genetics from the heart of our programs. With profit more important than ever – pounds pay and eye-appealing cattle that yield well and are fertile are high on our agenda.
Like you, we enjoy sourcing new genetics for our own bull batteries! In turn, it gives us the ability to continually offer you new bloodlines too! Look for the collective strength of many proven bloodlines, several halfbrothers, large sire groups, dependable performance bulls or calving ease bulls. Working with our professional nutritionist, our goal was to achieve steady, consistent daily gains to ensure sound bulls that are ready to work! Bulls have a lasting impact on your herd and in our experience, good bulls quickly pay for themselves!
