About Us

I was raised in a commercial cow/calf and heifer development operation near Wheatland, WY.   At the age of 9 I bought and picked my first heifer.   If it is true you learn more from your mistakes than successes - this cow turned out to be a wealth of   knowledge.     One thing I learned is that you truly can make great genetic progress through careful (and sometimes Lucky J ) sire selection.   This heifer was the beginning of my interest in AI - obviously we had a long way up that genetic quality ladder to climb!   Well - it worked.   She went from last place, laughing stock at the county fair - to her lines of offspring being all grand champions, and good profitable cattle.  

I attended the University of Wyoming and earned a degree in Animal Science.   Since that time I have worked in the Packing Industry, Embryo transfer facility, Cooperative Extension Service, as well as my family's ranch and Heifer and Bull Development lot.   Every step of the way has given me a piece of knowledge to help define the cow herd as it is today.   In 1998, after working with many breeds of cattle and crosses, I bought my first Red Angus and started into the breed I thought the best of all I had seen.
