Welcome!
We welcome you to our 56th annual production sale! We are humbled and thankful for your interest in our program. These are unprecedented, exciting times in the cattle business and the future looks even brighter. There are many opportunities in this record setting market to make advances in your breeding programs, and it is a great privilege to have the opportunity to earn your new or continued business. The right genetic selections and good management practices will pay big dividends in an ever-evolving cattle industry. As always, we have a uniform, predictable set of age-advantaged bulls that have passed every test and are ready to go to work for the commercial producer – a set of bulls that we are proud to stand behind.
Our cattle are developed in a real world environment – no creep feeders, the dam must do her job to raise a calf to weaning. The bulls are put on test after weaning until they are a year old, and then hand fed a controlled ration until sale day. We monitor and check these bulls daily to ensure they are to the Stone Gate standard. We don’t trim feet, and we cull for the occasional docility issue. All of this effort to produce a bull that we have 100% confidence will be a great value add to any commercial operation.
The females in this sale are from the heart of the herd. All are fall pairs that have a heifer calf along side, and have been AI’d & pasture exposed to exciting young sires with bright futures. A great opportunity to add inventory to your herd with some productive Stone Gate cows.
It is a great honor & privilege to serve our customers. We are committed to being of service to you, not just this year – but year in and year out. Check out our Customer Cattle Marketing page at the end of the sale book to learn more about some exciting opportunities we have lined up for our customers. We thank you for your interest in our program!
