Fellow Red Angus Enthusiasts,
It is our pleasure to welcome you to the 2022 edition of the Flat Water Gang Red Angus Bull Sale in the heart of cattle country, Broken Bow, Nebraska! Despite many of the challenges that we have faced over the course of the past 2 years it is safe to say that exciting times in the beef business are on the horizon and red hided cattle continue to surge in demand! This offering of bulls is comprised of the efforts and years of strategic breeding decisions that have been made by both Ross Knott and Ben Cooksley, with the common goal of improving their customer’s bottom line. Seems simple, right? Fast moving trends, and fads may come and go in the cattle industry, but one thing you can count on with this set of Red Angus herd sire prospect is that they are backed by a female that has earned her keep the old fashioned way! These bulls are supported by females that are required to calve unassisted, re-breed within the same interval, raise a big calf, and maintain their flesh while doing so. Flat Water Gang Red Angus is truly where “Maternal Matters”! Sandbur Ridge Red Angus and Cooksley Red Angus take great pride in the fundamental basic principles of hoof quality, skeletal integrity, fertility, pounds of calf weaned, and overall balance and phenotype. The sires of these bulls are selected after much evaluation and pressure application to traits of industry importance that affect the outcome of the end product phase for each and every operation. A problem free calving experience, growth achievement to weaning time, and ultimate carcass improvement are all factored in this offering. The people backing the bulls are very disciplined and customer service focused as they have a devout understanding of the seriousness of your bull selection and the impact this purchase will have on your program over the next 10 years, literally. We have listed the age of the dams that are responsible for this year’s offering to give you a better understanding of the longevity, durability, and fertility that these cattle represent. Genetics don’t cost, they pay… so invest in the type and kind of cattle that will leave a lasting impact on your program for decades to come. We invite you to Broken Bow the 21st of March for the annual Flatwater Gang offering. We are sure that your expectations will be met by the cattle in this offering. However, if you need any assistance or information prior to the sale please feel free to reach out to any of the sale staff to assist with your prospective purchases. NEW in 2022, the bulls will be on display at Broken Bow Livestock. They will still sell on video at the One Box Convention Center that is attached to the Cobblestone Inn & Suites.
