Stevenson Basin Angus Sale

Was wondering if you were watching it Frankie. Some pretty nice bulls there.
They are about an hour and a half south of us. Heard a rumor that they might be buying a large ranch south of us, about 45 minutes away.

I watched about the first 30 minutes yesterday (Wednesday). I turned it back on later, but they were selling the Red Angus. Prices didn't seem to be too good. I caught about another 30 minutes of it today, then they apparently lost the feed.

I like to watch Angus sales and get a look at bulls by the bulls we're AI-ing to. They use a lot of their own bulls, so I don't get as much out of it. But they did have some good looking animals, with good performance data and EPDs.

I think Stephenson-Basin is the largest Angus seedstock producer in the world, so I wouldn't be surprised to see them buying more land. They're kind of like Gardiners. As the family grows, they need to sell more cattle to support them. :)
 
About had a heart attack last year watching that one bull go for $250,000.00
They are selling 1400 head. They had 200 red angus bulls yesterday.

So flaboy do you buy over the phone or internet or are you up here in Montana? :D

When they built that big sale barn on their place it made the local news. :lol:

I have a friend that did his internship on their ranch as part of his college courses. He wanted to get into Red Angus as his family already had a commecial herd. He bought and transported a truckload from them and I bought my bull from him.
 
I thought I heard that they bought a bull at Holdens Hereford Sale. I wonder if that has anything to do with another ranch? I thought the quality was good though out the sale.
