Robust was the phenotypic standout of the 2021 Sitz Angus Spring Bull Sale. Having surfaced from a large and competitive group of contemporar- ies, we are certain he carries prepotent genes for the traits our customers find important. After seeing Robust’s dam out working in tough conditions and how well she maintained her flesh, power and soundness, we felt he was a must- have. We believe she closely resembles another dy- namic Upward daughter that formerly roamed our pastures, EA Bells Girl 2181. Our Robust daughters in production are carrying on the same qualities. Those who have seen Robust in person know he has matured into an impressive individual. He is owned with Raven Angus and Lott Farms.

This pounds-heavy Robust son showcases tremendous structural integrity. His Roughrider dam is everything we think an ideal brood cow should be – productive, fertile, easy fleshing and sound footed and uddered. Maternal brothers have been selected by Barnes Ranch, Paul Forn- shell and Steve Bass in past production sales.
Ellingson Robust 4002’s dam is a maternal sister to the up-and-coming sire Ellingson Statement. Statement has an average progeny weaning ratio of 105 and has sired one of the strongest sets of sons in this sale. Lot 367’s maternal brother was a sale feature in 2024, purchased by Amstutz Cattle Company.
Paul Fornshell owns a maternal brother to Lot 366.
Mindy Amstutz and her husband Aaron own a maternal brother to Lot 367.
Mike and Dottie Barnes own a maternal brother to Lot 366.
