Philosophies Behind Our Bulls

1. Honesty and integrity will never be compromised.
2. We will manage the natural resources placed under our control in a sustainable manner.
3. The breed of cattle is not nearly as important as the breeding program and the philosophies that produce the cattle.
4. Cows are run in a real-world environment, as tough as or tougher than the environment most commercial cows are run in.
5. We let the environment sort out the good ones, while we show absolutely no sympathy for open, late, or dry cows.
6. We will never make an excuse for a cow.   A cow must produce and wean a calf every year to remain in the herd.
7. By limiting feed resources, we try to apply sufficient pressure on the cowherd to force out the unadapted and infertile animals — at least 10 percent each year.
8. In addition to growth and performance, we select for some other vital economic traits like fertility, calving ease, moderate cow size, fleshing ability, structural correctness, disposition, and longevity.
9. Replacement heifers are developed on a low-cost, forage-based diet with minimum supplements.   We only want the most efficient and most adapted heifers to make it into the cowherd.
10. A bull calf must be born unassisted from an efficient, moderate-sized cow that has never missed in order to make it into one of our bull sales.
