FELLOW CATTLEMEN
Dear Cattlemen and Friends, Welcome to our Annual Angus Production Sale. Each year, this event gives us the opportunity to open our gates, share our progress, and thank the many people who have become part of our story. We are grateful for the incredible relationships we’ve built over the years—relationships that have grown into friendships and fueled our passion for raising cattle that truly make a difference in your herds. Our program is centered around a clear and unwavering focus: selecting cows that excel in reproductive efficiency, docility, and long-term performance. These traits are the backbone of a profitable, dependable cow herd, and they guide every breeding decision we make. We believe cattle should work hard, last long, and handle quietly, and this offering reflects those priorities. It has been an exciting time to be part of the cattle industry. Strong markets are finally rewarding the discipline, grit, and long-term commitment that cattlemen have poured into their operations for years. Seeing the cow herd valued the way it deserves reinforces our belief that doing things the right way—focused on function, longevity, and sound fundamentals—truly pays. Behind these cattle is a level of commitment that never slows. The long days, the late nights, and the constant attention to detail are all a reflection of one thing—we do this for you. Your trust, your success, and your continued support motivate us to keep improving and keep striving for better. Thank you for being here and for being part of our journey. We look forward to visiting with you on sale day.

SIRE KLA Cherokee We used Cherokee because he consistently produced deep-bodied calves with presence from day one. His sons looked like bulls at just a few weeks old, while his daughters stood out for their style and femininity. Backed by maternal strength on both sides of his pedigree, Cherokee passed on balance, look, and function in a very repeatable way.

We’ve been big fans of the Super Charger daughters, and this dam didn’t just meet expectations—she cannonballed right in. She’s made such an impres- sion that we sent her to Bovagen this summer and stocked the tank with her embryos, because when something works this well, you don’t keep it a secret. This bull has been a standout from day one—always catching your eye, always pushing to the front, and proving early that the apple didn’t fall far from a very powerful tree.

The genetic blend of an Acclaim daughter and the impressive Cherokee sire has produced a stand- out from the ground up. He’s wide topped and deep sided, with added dimension through his rib and flank, giving him a bold, powerful look without sacrificing moderation. Clean fronted and sound on his feet and legs, he moves with ease and balance. This is a stout, practical-made bull that combines eye appeal, muscle, and functionality in a package designed to work in real-world conditions.

He moves out easy, has the growth, and should sire calves that get noticed at the sale barn. His dam is off to a strong start too, posting a 110 weaning average-proving she’s not here to decorate the pasture.

His calves arrive in the perfect size and shape, then blossom into deep, soggy bulls and feminine, broody females.

Out of a powerful young female we purchased from Bullerman Angus—and one we’re betting big on. She earned the name Lainey (yes, like Lainey Wilson), after she and her calf Wilson won the local county fair, she went straight to Bovagen and spent the summer getting flushed. This Endeavor son delivers true heifer-bull calving ease up front, then turns around and stacks on the kind of payweight that shows up loud and clear at year’s end.

This is your chance to tap into the proven Regiment pedigree that continues to earn its keep in our herd through a lineup of prolific, hard-working daughters. Stack that maternal power with Ellingson Fortified on the top side, and you’ve got a recipe for moderate birth weights, strong maternal ability, and calves that still bring the pounds when it counts. He posts an individual weaning ratio of 107, backing the talk with realistic performance.

Out of a young B-52 daughter and backed by the power and dimension of Fortified, this bull didn’t sneak into the sale pen—he belonged there. Still early in his story, but it’s already a good one.

SIRE SAC Fort Robinson We selected SAC Fort Robinson 3711 as another high-end addition. This time from the Scott Angus Cattle program. This sire is also heavily armed in the maternal department. His combination of length, depth, dimension, and overall mass sealed the deal on selection day. In the pasture he has proven to be a vigorous breeder, and we are extremely pleased with the quality, consistency, and look showing up in his offspring.
