The Genetic Excellence Angus Bull Sale

01/14/2025

It has been a few days (thank you to a snow storm, pig show, and the flu) but we are still blown away with the support we received at our sale this year. It was definitely one for the books. To every person who helped with the cattle, helped in the office, came and supported the sale in person, watched online, liked a social media post, told a neighbor about our sale, bid on some cattle, or ended up leaving with a full trailer, we want to offer you our sincerest gratitude. There are so many moving pieces to putting on a sale and you all play such an important role in making it happen. We are humbled by your support and we are truly grateful.

The kids took quite a few pictures (few = several hundred 🫠) this year so please enjoy sale day (mostly before and after the sale because I did not trust them with the camera in a big crowd 😬) through the eyes of a 7 and 8 year old!

Less than a week until Sale Day and just a few more Featured Sire Spotlights to roll through. This one has impressed us over and over again and this year might just take the cake!

Square B True North 8052-

True North was used by our programs first and foremost because of the maternal strength of his three generation pedigree. True North has exceeded our expectations at every turn from great calf vigor at birth, slick hair coats, fleshing ease on fescue, clam dispositions and impeccable feet and leg structure. True North is a high impact sire within our breeding programs and Genetic Excellence. Our programs are utilizing the old man and his best sons in our programs.

Let’s keep these Featured Sire Spotlights rolling with a bull that has left a big mark on our program:

KG Justified 3023-

Justified is a highly proven, foundation breeding bull, that does several things extremely well. The Justified sons we have sold in past sales have been accepted very well by our customers and the reports we have received from their calves has been an over whelming thumbs up. The greatest asset a cow herd can receive from infusing Justified genetics, will be the maternal strength of Justified females. Justified will have a major impact on future Genetic Excellence Sales, through his daughters and his sons we are using in our A.I. programs.

1: Lot 32- HF Justified 309 of 460- AAA # 20892946 *Lot 32 has been collected by Holt Farms for their personal use*

Square B Atlantis 8060-

Atlantis was brought into our programs for the stunning phenotype he exhibits and passes along to his progeny. Atlantis will add extra body length, base width, and a slick hair coat to any mating. The Atlantis sons selling are moderate framed, easy fleshing, slick haired BEEF Bulls. When we brought Atlantis into our program’s we thought his daughters and granddaughters would be his claim to fame, after calving out his first daughters this past fall, we could not be more pleased.

It may be a few more months until the bull sale rolls around again, but if you want to see the foundation of our herds and where those bulls come from, this female sale is a great place to start. We are very proud of what we have put together and if you are interested in adding any top notch females to your herd this sale is a great place to get that done.
