Annual Production Sale
Feb. 14, 2025 • 1 p.m.
Buffalo Livestock Marketing • Buffalo, WY
Selling: 120+ RANGE-READY PAP-TESTED ANGUS BULLS
BULLS BORN k RAISED WHERE CORN DON’T GROW!
What a year of record high calf prices, drought, and fire after fire in Northeast Wyoming. Been one for the memory books for sure. We are excited to offer up a deep in quality set of bulls we have ever raised. Figuring out the sale order and picking top bulls was tough!
Calves were a little lighter at weaning than in previous years but it was dry, and hot for the entire summer. Once weaned and started on feed they have really taken off and are performing like champs.
Dispositions on this set of bulls has been excellent thus far. Bobby Wellner who clips the bulls for the sale mentioned it again and again about how quiet and calm the bulls were while getting fit for the sale. We encourage anyone to come view the bulls at the ranch before the sale. We should have 50K results available by sale day for those interested in those numbers. Please call with any questions as we look forward to “Shooting the bull!” (Especially Neal…he has mastered it)
WHY BUY POWDER RIVER ANGUS BULLS. . .
BRED HERE, BORN HERE TO WORK HERE. We have been in the registered Angus business for 31 years and have five generations of ranchers behind each of us. Natives of Wyoming, we have an understanding about the type of cattle that can excel in the tough environment Wyoming is known for.
WE HAVE BEEN SELECTING HERD BULLS AND MOMMA COWS THAT ARE HIGH IN MATERNAL TRAITS AND HAVE DEVELOPED A PROGRAM KNOWN FOR IT. “A good bull is a by- product of a remarkable cow.” We do not chase the next greatest or fads. We stay tried and true to breeding cattle that are maternal and we let the cattle prove themselves in our program in our environment.
WE DEVELOP OUR BULLS ON A HIGH FIBER PELLET AND LONG STEM GRASS HAY. We feel this enables our bulls to grow at a rate that will enhance their longevity. Feeding a lower energy diet also keeps their feet good, and the bulls will hold up better once they are turned out. Fat is pretty on a bull but can melt off quickly and cause fertility and longevity problems. Bulls should not be developed on a fat steer ration.
WE HAVE BEEN SCORING FEET, UDDER, AND DISPOSITIONS on our cattle for years. We rigorously cull our cattle to ensure good feet and legs, nice tidy udders, and calm dispositions.
WE GUARANTEE OUR BULLS, and we stand behind them. We collaborate with our customers to assure they are satisfied with the bulls they purchase. We want repeat customers and to achieve this we put customer satisfaction high on our list. A guarantee is only as good as who stands behind it.
We extend an invitation to our bull sale on February 14, 2025, in Buffalo, Wyoming. We will be offering a 125 head of PAP tested yearling angus bulls at the Buffalo Livestock Marketing sale barn. Join us for lunch at 11:00 and the sale starts at 1:00 PM MST.

CALVING-EASE SCORES: Each bull in the sale has been assigned a calving ease score. This is our best estimate based on a number of factors including pedigree, birth weight and our knowledge of the sire and dam. 4-stars (****) designates a sleep-all-night heifer bull. 2-3 star bulls would work on larger framed heifers and 1-star designates a cow bull. All buyers should take into account their own program when considering these recommendations. Please talk to us prior to the sale if you have questions about the scores.
HERD HEALTH: All cattle sell with proper health papers for interstate shipment. A rigid herd health program is followed. All cattle have been calf hood vaccinated with 7-way Somnus at branding and at weaning along with IBR, BVD, BRSV, Pasturella and a Dectomax Pour On. Bulls also received two shots of Fusoguard to help protect against footrot.

34 sons sll! PRA Bulldogger 1197
(Owned with Paint Rock Angus Ranch Inc. ) Bulldogger or “Dogger” is a Coalition son out of a Juneau 797 daughter, who at the age of 12 is AI bred to calve this spring. She has 13 calves (ET Calves) at 101 Birth and 13 calves at 105 for Weaning. We used Bulldogger heavily in our program because of his mother. She is one of those cows you wished you had a whole herd of and I guess we are on our way to doing just that! The Dogger sons are deep ribbed, moderate framed, with excellent growth. Keep the daughters out of his sons because that is where the genetics will repay you for years to come.
We have used Coalition for several years now and continue to be impressed by his overall performance within our herd. Very maternal cattle and are suited for our Wyoming environment. Coalition stamps his calves with exception muscling, good feet and quiet dispositions. We have a lot of daughters in production and they are proving to be good mommas and many are rising to the top in production.

We used Duke for the cow behind him. Duke sons have body length, muscle, and QUIET dispositions. We used him successfully on heifers. There is really good performance in his calves and we are looking forward to having daughters in production.
We haven’t calved any daughters yet but boy do we like how his daughters look. Big barreled and long stretchy spines. Feet and legs look good too!

Atlantis and True North are full brothers. True North provides more calving ease. Both sires offer a super attractive profile and produce sons and daughters with extra rib and capacity. Both are moderate in size, athletic and gentle.

A Justified son with added length and less tail head than his sire. Firesteel has a loaded pedigree of highly maternal cattle. The Firesteel heifer calves have a nice femine look to them. Sons seem gentle and have good growth.

COWS k INSTINCTS
We range-calve our cows. We do not want calving difficulties. We have been selective in our bulls for decades and we rarely have any calving issues. At Powder River Angus, calving ease does not mean low birth weight. Calving ease is acquired through selecting proven bulls and bulls with a phenotype suited for easy calving: small heads, long necks and spines, shoulders set in, etc.

There are 5 bulls in the sale (Lots 13, 23, 47, 54 and 101) that are selling as commercial only. We have a deceased natural service herd bull we are having troubles with his sample at the Angus Association. We are confident these calves are either out of him or their mothers are his daughters. They cannot be registered through the Association as of now. We are hoping to resolve the issue but it takes a lot of time and steps to get it done.

(In order to do that, we have to focus on the mama cow and develop bulls for fertility, longevity and soundness.)
We develop the bulls on free-choice long stem grass hay and a set amount of a high fiber pellet we purchase from Hubbard Feeds. The ration is designed for the bulls to gain 2.8 – 3.0 pounds a day. We feel at this rate the bulls can exhibit their genetic potential, but not at the expense of fertility, longevity and soundness. It is important to note the bulls do not layer on fat. They exhibit skeletal and muscular growth and will have a “hard” look to them not a, “ fat with all the holes poked-out look!” What you see is what you get. No surprises and no huge melt-off of fat as they go into the breeding season. Our customers report back about their bulls lasting well over 6 years Making their bull investment return a profit for years.

FEED-EFFICIENT GENETICS THAT DO WELL ON THE RAIL
We have retained ownership of our steer calves and the kill data we have received back on our steer calves tells us we are providing genetics that do well not only on the rail but also in feed efficiency. Our calves finish quickly which is very indicative of profitability. They also grade and yield extremely well. The pandemic caused our steers to have to be fed an additional 45 days. Our steers just kept gaining and had the frame and genetic ability to keep adding meat. They didn’t stall out and we had incredible grades of carcass.

Through our environment, alone, we raise cattle with the traits that will supply an economical beef animal. With decades of breeding and choice of exceptional females we have developed a program that will put money in your pockets. The Angus cow is the most beneficial and profitable cow out there.
Combine that with a program committed to developing bulls in a responsible manner, you are on a track to success. Our bulls are not fed silage or a “hot” ration. We develop our bulls on a high fiber pellet and long stem grass hay. Our bulls will be solid and ready to go to work without the dreaded melt-off of fat.

INVEST IN A PROGRAM THAT WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH
Genetics that are geared toward the female!
FERTILE MYRTLES Let’s face it... she has to breed, or she is gone. Heifer developing is expensive and time consuming. Fertile females are necessary. For 31 years we have selected for highly fertile females. It is our number one criteria. We calve for 45 days after their AI dates. We cull cows and heifers that fall out of that time frame.
CALVING EASE We range calve our cows. We do not want calving difficulties. We have been selective in our bulls for decades and we rarely have any calving issues. We feel calving ease does not mean low birth weight. Calving ease is acquired through selecting proven bulls and bulls with a phenotype suited for easy calving. Small heads, long necks and spines, shoulders set in etc.
EASY KEEPING This can be a double-edged sword. We want our cows to keep their flesh but not at the expense of her calf. A fat cow with a bummy looking calf is not profitable. A cow in good condition, who produces a heavy calf, breeds back in time, and regains condition after weaning is a profitable cow.
HIGHLY EFFICIENT We live in Wyoming with an annual precipitation of 12-14 inches. With feed costs rising before our eyes, we must raise cattle that will do more on less. Our environment and breeding selections have allowed us to achieve a cow who excels in a multitude of environments.
CAN TRAVEL SOUNDNESS AND FOOT QUALITY. A huge problem in the Angus breed especially foot quality. We have actively been selecting and breeding for foot and soundness traits.
PERFORMANCE MINDED When we get right down to it, we need our cows to raise soggy, pound wielding calves. Through generations of breeding, we have selected for these girls. Our dams must reach a benchmark in several traits. We cull cows that are not achieving this benchmark. Our benchmark is probably higher than most commercial programs, but we feel it needs to be for us to provide the quality genetics our customers deserve.
ENVIRONMENT ALONE Through our environment, alone, we raise cattle with the traits that will supply an economical beef animal. With decades of breeding and choice of exceptional females we have developed a program that will put money in your pockets. The angus cow is the most beneficial and profitable cow out there. Combine that with a program committed in breeding superior females you are on a track to success.
