Angus That Thrive Welcome to our online "Genetic Opportunity" sale Volume 2. It's been an incredible spring and we thank everyone who has put trust in our genetics. Our 27th annual production sale held March 19th was one for the record books. It was a reflection of our program and the quality of cattle we strive to produce. We are humbled by everyone's interest and support. Melvin & Cathy Musgrave
One criteria we don't loose sight of is quality, structural soundness, and thickness. If these traits are in balance cattle can perform and thrive in any faucet of this industry. The genetics we select are chosen to enhance this criteria and generate profit for others. With overwhelming interest we have decided to offer an additional 100 units of semen on Sitz Feat. He is a sire we believe in and this will be some of the only semen to sell this spring.
Tyler & Sarah Musgrave family
This offering stands as some of the most valuable and sought after genetics in the breed today. With strong interest we have decided to dig deeper and offer more! Feel free to reach out if there's anything we can help you with. God Bless, -Tyler

Before the spring breeding season we make an annual trip to Billings, MT, to visit the three major bull studs. It has proven to be a very important trip, visual appraisal in sire selection is critical. Origen was our last stop on this trip and it's there we saw Sitz Feat. It was a weak in the knees experience and we knew he had to come to Pike County. This was the bull we've been looking for, everything worked - his feet are incredible, he had eye appeal to waste, a huge rear end, & more bone and stoutness than any Angus sire we've seen in a while. He has superior quality combined with great EPDs, a no holes pedigree, and an excellent disposition. After partnering with Spring Cove Ranch, ID, this incredible sire came to service cows at Musgrave Angus and begin his legacy! #ANGUSTHATTHRIVE
-With over 100 progeny on the ground between Musgrave and Spring Cove, Sitz Feat calves are coming easy at birth and really look the part. They are everything we were hoping for and more!

Prim Lassie family
Musgrave 316 Exclusive -Exclusive was the first son of LD Capitalist 316 to sell at public auction as a $20,000 highlight in our 2016 production sale. He was a standout of the 2015 calf crop and earned a 205 day ratio of 108 & a 365 day ratio of 114 giving him elite herd sire credentials. We then saw him on a herd visit as a 3yr old, his power and phenotype motivated us to bring him back to the herd. Upon return we genomics tested him, then it was off to the races! Today he ranks as the most influential son of the legendary sire LD Capitalist 316 and is blazing a trail in the Angus breed that won't be forgotten. His first daughters in production possess superior udder quality and stand on an ideal hoof with great fleshing ability. A truly great sire will only produce females as good as the family he comes from, we're all in with his strong maternal background.
