Sale Information HANGING H RANCH
Welcome,
This year we will be offering a larger group of bulls than we have in the past due to a higher bull-to-heifer ratio on our
2020-born AI calves. We have always strived for quality over quantity and this year is no different. I put a strong emphasis
on producing functional cattle that combine eye appeal, calving ease, performance, strong maternal traits, efficiency, and
structural soundness. I don’t believe in chasing numbers but instead seeing the results in the pasture. We use extensive AI
and use a majority of well proven sires the commercial cattlemen can count on. Using Artificial insemination allows us to
focus on each female and gives us the ability to mate her to a sire that will result in a well-balanced calf. Crossbreeding has
also been one of our main focuses. It is one of the greatest tools we use to add performance, longevity, eye appeal, fertility,
fleshing ability, and maternal.
MANAGEMENT:
We summer calve starting in early May. Our cows are expected to calve unassisted on pasture. We had 99.4% of our 2020
calf crop calve unassisted. Udder quality and CE is always bred in. Because we calve on pasture these are two traits that
are very important to us. The calves are not creep fed and rely solely on their mother’s milk. Calves are weaned in mid-
November and are fed a high roughage ration containing little grain. They are then turned out on native pasture through the
summer and fall months the same way we manage our steer and heifer calves. Through this process we are better able to
cull out the average and below average cattle. This year thanks to our much-needed late fall rains we were able to continue
grazing the bulls on native grass and cover crop regrowth until November 25. They were not supplemented with any other
feed until after that date. We don’t believe in covering up flaws with grain. These bulls have been grown out in a way that
ensures longevity, structural soundness, and ultimately a longer servicing career.
NEW THIS YEAR:
The sale will be held with DVAuction via a Timed Auction. We are hoping this will help simplify bidding and make bidding
easier than our past format. All lots will have a video which has been a request in the past.
