Friends and Fellow Cattlemen
Welcome and thank you for your interest in our 2026 bull sale. We are beyond excited about this year’s offering as we feel that this set brings something for everyone. We have been pleased with how the bulls have developed through growth and maturity throughout the year as the fall and most of the winter has been pleasant. We would love for you to join us on March 1st in Piece, NE for this year’s sale.
We would like to thank all of our past customers for the continued support and interest in our program. Gateway Genetics is grateful for the feedback and success stories we have received through the years. With that, dealing with livestock is a tough business with unexcepted happenings, so if there is any way we can help you at any time throughout the year, please let us know.
It is a very rewarding time to be in the cattle business, as we have seen record breaking prices from feeder cattle, bred females, and weigh-ups. With the cattle market in demand, there has never been a better time to upgrade your herd bull battery with new genetics that will increase your profitability. As we see high feeder cattle prices, many might ask what are bulls worth this year? As we look at this, it fits to upgrade better genetics as a few feeder steers pays for a new herd sire. We feel there is a budget for everyone here and quality to fit your needs.
Our family is passionate about improving our cow herd through sire selection and embryo transplant program. We feel that a uniform set of cattle not only focusing on EPD’s or Phenotype but combining both will help not only to better your cow herd but selling your feeder cattle as well. Our goal is to provide well balanced, uniform cattle that can perform in the hills and in the feedlots. As our family have put endless hours of blood, sweat and tears into our operation it also wouldn’t be possible without our close friends being here to help. Their friendship and willingness to lend a helping hand is very much appreciated and we could not have done this without them.
Again, we welcome you, Sunday March 1st to Pierce, NE or any time prior to the sale. Join us for lunch starting at 11:00AM and the sale starting at 1:00PM. If we can assist you in any way or have any questions, please feel free to give us a call or stop by. If you can come prior to the sale to view the bulls, it is easier to assist you with what bulls fits your needs. We sincerely appreciate and enjoy visiting and spending time with you. We hope to see you there.
Sincerely,
Kevin Benes
Welcome
to the 14th Annual Gateway Genetics Bull & Female Sale. Kevin and Laura are extremely proud to offer this set of bulls and heifers for your evaluation. Anyone in the agriculture industry knows what it is like to work an entire year in preparation for one day. All of the long, cold nights calving, the hot summer days, and the crisp fall mornings during weaning time have culminated in the group being offered in this sale. Kevin, Laura, Brenna and Brylie are some of the hardest working, most genuine people in the industry, and if you haven’t done business with them yet, I highly recommend coming to the sale and seeing how many repeat customers they have. The cattle market is great right now and that is a good thing, but with the investment it requires at this time, it has never been more important to invest in quality genetics backed by quality people.
The Gateway breeding philosophy is to simply produce cattle that have the functionality to work for the commercial cattleman with enough eye appeal to be sought after by purebred producers. They do not chase fads, but they do infuse modern genetics into proven cow families that have worked for generations. The product that represents this offering has been curated for years with real world Cowboy function as the guiding principle. With both Angus and SimGentic cattle offered, Gateway understands the upside of hybrid vigor and maternal strength.
Rest assured you are doing business with great people who stand behind their product 100% and will do whatever it takes to make sure you are satisfied with your purchase. If myself, the family, or any of the sale staff can be of assistance ahead of sale day, please do not hesitate to contact us.
See you on sale day,

We felt that the best way to lead off this year’s sale was in similar fashion to last year’s. Lot 1 is a maternal brother to the 2025 high selling Angus bull that went to Feller Ranch, Thedford, Ne. Both the sire and the dam of this bull are extremely prolific. His dam, sired by HF Tiger, is a proven producer that is the cornerstone of the Gateway herd. The Basin Jameson sire group is very popular across the country, and this bull is a testament to that popularity. This exceptional herd sire prospect mirrors his brother in terms of his tremendous build, mass, and overall look of quality. We feel that he offers excellent upside potential to any purebred producer looking to add performance and maternal strength.

GTWY SWSN MR FAITHFUL 507
44 Faithful is well on his way to becoming one of the most impactful sires of his generation. Swanson’s were fortunate enough to get access to some of his first service, and they very much regret not breeding every cow on the place to him. We are pleased to be able to offer some of the first progeny to the public by this exciting young sire. I think this bull is as good as it gets in terms of herd sire potential. He is tremendous from a visual perspective while checking the boxes across the board from an EPD standpoint. This is a balanced, eye appealing herd sire prospect that is backed by a great cow family.

The next seven bulls are sired by the new lead herd sire for Gateway, RBM National L76. This sire was selected from RBM Livestock in South Dakota as one of their high selling bulls in the 2024 sale. His first calf crop exceeded expectations, and he will be utilized through heavier service going forward. The dam of lot 9 has been a good cow over the years. I have this bull highly marked and think he will be a herd sire prospect.

I have this bull highly marked due to his quality of build, added depth of rib, and eye appeal. His dam is out of the $100,000 and past Junior National Reserve Champion Firefly 311A. I think this bull could complement any set of registered cows, or use in a commercial herd to improve quality and maternal strength.
This Eminence son stems back to the Dreamy cow family. A full sister to the dam of this bull sold for $195,000 and is a lead donor at Sullivan Farms. A maternal brother to his bull sold for $7,500 in the 2024 sale. This is a well-built, easy keeping bull.

The lead off Simmental open heifer is an impressive female that has a great future.

She blends femininity and power into a well balanced package. We believe she has the ability to be shown at the highest levels before her career begins as a herd matron.

Lot 73 will be one of the few daughters of the $150,000 Bridle Bit Recharge to be offered to the public. This is an excellent female that is a flushmate to the lot 43 bull earlier. Her dam is a Countertime daughter that was purchased in the CK Cattle/Wager Cattle Bull and Female Sale, and she has turned into an excellent producer. This female excels in her calving ease and carcass traits which makes her breeding options almost limitless.
In terms of genetic potential, this could be the most exciting female in the sale. Sired by the very popular WAGR Patriot, she is a direct daughter of WAGR Panarama 204Z. She would be a maternal sister to the $400,000 Profit and the $350,000 Justified. Between Panarama herself, and her dam 3C Melody, they have accounted for several million dollars in progeny sales and are two of the most influential females in the history of the breed.
These four heifers will sell as purebred commercial Angus. They are registerable for an additional $100/head. These are from the heart of the replacement pen at Gateway Genetics.
