3.5 MILES SOUTH OF YUMA ON HWY. 59 at the ranch in Yuma, Colorado
Hello Friends!
Greetings to our very good friends and customers! Welcome to our 2026 Cattleman’s Connection Sale at the Wagon Wheel Ranch!
We consider ourselves a working ranch and we have not and do not get into flashy, show ring style of cattle. We find they seldom work well in the real world as they are more for looks than performance. The true identity of an animal is measured, not judged.
This is why you will see our bulls in their working clothes, just like on the job, whether that be in a pasture or in a feedlot. The sale catalog pictures show that well, all bull and no show.
However, we aren’t shying away from all competition. Here are our results of feedlot trials from the annual Yuma County Cattlemen’s feedlot performance trials. This contest regularly features nearly 80-90 head of select steers from the region every year.
10 years results here-
2014- Grand Champion steer
2015- First place carcass steer
2017- Reserve Champion steer
2019- First place carcass steer
2020- Grand Champion steer
2020- First place carcass steer
2022- First place carcass steer
2022- Grand Champion steer
2025- First place carcass steer
This is consistency shown from our own herd and you can be a part of this type of performance with quality Wagon Wheel Ranch bulls.
With sale barns setting new records practically every week, you’ll want to see your name among them. Here’s your chance.
See you at our sale Tuesday, March 10, 2026, here at the ranch 1:00 p.m. MDT.

COMMERCIALBULL
30 PUREBRED OPEN ANGUS COMMERCIAL HEIFERS
The commercial Angus and F1 Polled Hereford cross baldy heifers have the same excellent genetics as the base of our cow herd. Calving ease, milking ability, easy fleshing ability, fertility, and excellent longevity in your herd. Carcass genetics and feeding performance is a mainstay of our herd. Weights will range from 650 - 800 pounds by sale day. These heifers are unbranded so that when you put yours on, it will be the first and only brand on them.
We sort these heifers into uniform groups of 10 head and when selling the buyers will have the chance to pick from 1 to 10 heifers. After the first selection, if any heifers remain in that pen, then the next opportunity will be to buy out of that draft for same money. If any remain after that, then the next winning bid cleans the ring.
We’ve also started them on their first round of prebreeding vaccinations For those of you who choose to go with a modified live vaccination, they were administered at the same time as their Bangs vaccination, a dose of Zoetis Bovishield Gold 5 VL5. This way if you choose to continue with that program during their lifetime it’s already started for you. We recommend that you continue with a vaccination schedule throughout these animals’ lifetime.
We are deeply committed to the over all health of our herd and strongly believe a good and proper vaccination program is the foundation to the health and vigor of the cows, calves and bulls which go through our ranch.
