According to Darrell Peel at Oklahoma State University, the 2025 calf crop was projected to be the smallest total U.S. calf crop since 1941. In January of 2026, the USDA and HHS unveiled a redesigned, “inverted” food pyramid for the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines, shifting focus toward protein. Based on those two facts alone, you don’t need a doctorate in economics to forecast what’s ahead for the beef industry. Widowmaker has catapulted Niobrara Red Angus into some “Saint Anthony-like” performance, holding true to the Top 1% performance consistently witnessed in the Trojan sire group. Weaned at 1,008 pounds on August 29th, 2025, Widowmaker is at the front of the pack accompanied by a few of his brothers. When 5190 hit the picture pen, I was completely captivated just watching his dark, dominant presence and attractive design circle the straw. In 2025, we offered two of his full brothers from the immortal Kuruba De 2085Z matron, Comanche and Spectrum. With peak demand by many great cattlemen and women, they landed at a premium, selling to two of the most progressive commercial cattlemen that source bulls from us. Darker hided than his two brothers, I feel this is one of the most significant bulls in the 2026 offering.
