The Cow Herd

T h e C o w H e r d

The cow herd is the heart of our program. High-performing, well-balanced females that excel across the board consistently are individually matched to proven AI sires to produce calves that are genetically superior. Cattle must have the genetic potential to deliver the results necessary to compete in today's market...tomorrow will be even tougher. Quality cattle are the result of careful planning and good investing.

As the overall demand for beef declines, the demand for high quality beef continues to grow. Your cow herd will become increasingly less profitable if the genetic base is unable to qualify for grid premiums. When over-supply of fed cattle is an issue, only the high grading cattle will continue to generate top dollar profits.

Listed below are examples of the females that are representative of our breeding program. These breed leaders average in the top 1% of the Angus breed for $Grid and $Beef values and they reflect the quality of their genetics in every important trait from high-growth to superior carcass quality.
