Page 2 - Pederson's Broken Heart Red Angus Bull Sale – March 1, 2023
P. 2
Welcome to our 45th annual sale. In 1961, our Patriarch and
Matriarch Ralph and Helen Pederson, purchased their first Red
Angus females from Becton Stock Farm. A little over six decades
have gone by but we still have the same philosophy of raising
cattle and Quarter Horses. We also have been fortunate to have
repeat customers that date back to the beginning.
We have enjoyed producing Registered Red Angus all our lives
and have met many producers and have made lifelong friends.
We are very proud of the fact that our genetics have played a
role in commercial programs that are recognized for top-selling
replacement quality females and steers that push the scales to
the limit. Your success is what drives us to select and produce
cattle that are exceeding industry average. The Red Angus breed
just keeps growing in popularity and doesn’t show any indication
The Pederson Family of slowing anytime soon. Heifers are outselling their steer mates
and more and more breed associations are using Red Angus
females for their crossbreeding selections. With the advance-
ment of technology there are numerous tools to help with herd
bull selection.
Feel free to visit with us anytime and we can use our decades of
experience to answer questions that will assist you in fine tuning
Gary and Sue your herd. Our philosophy hasn’t changed any about raising
cattle. “Staying consistent” and selecting for a balanced set of
traits. We simply focus on females that are feminine and highly
maternal with outstanding feet and leg structure and level ud-
ders. We strive to have these qualities combined with cattle that
are deep sided, long bodied and have plenty of muscle wrapped
up in a quiet and easy to handle package.
The bulls were weaned in the middle of October. They weaned
great and did well during the cold spells and negative windchills.
We will have them carcass ultrasound evaluated late February
and will have Oahe Vet palpate and scrotal measure all the bulls.
That information will be available through a supplement sheet
sale day or on our website www.pedersonredangus.com. We will
Chad, Lisa, and not have the bulls semen tested due to their younger age, but we
Bricelyn do stand behind them when that time arrives prior to breeding.
This year, the entire offering is parent verified with GGP testing
for enhanced EPDs
We would like to thank everyone for attending and considering
using our genetics in your program. Bull selection is never an
easy task and feel free to ask us any questions about the bulls.
We will help you select bulls with the traits that you would like to
improve and help you get to your end-product goal.
