Raisland Red Angus (RSL)
Raisland Red Angus is owned and operated by Glen and Karen Rais-
land in Saint Ignatius, Montana. We have known the Raisland’s for
many years from the days when we were both working with Leach-
man Cattle Company. The Raisland’s along with Karen’s family, the
Cawlfield’s are not newcomers to the Red Angus breed and have a
long and storied past that includes being the breeders of Grand
Canyon and Major League. These folks have an exceptional reputa-
tion for breeding some of the best females in Montana as well as
throughout the U.S. and numerous times over the years have topped
the Prestigous NILE Red Angus Sale. We appreciate the Raisland’s
participating in Herdbuilder Sale and we think that everyone will be
impressed with their offering.
Knaub Cattle Company (KCC)
Scott and Marcella Knaub along with their family own and
operate Knaub Cattle Company in Lodge Grass, Montana.
The Knaub ranch lies in one of the most historic and pro-
ductive cattle areas in the state of Montana and the world.
The Knaub’s have been breeding Red Angus cattle for several
years and were one of the strongest supporters of the Mid-
land Bull Test for years, topping both the test and sale many
times. Evolving and looking to be part of a larger vision and
program, Scott and Marcella joined our performance group.
The “KCC” cattle are not pampered and are run in a tradi-
tional commercial cow calf operation environment. These
rugged hard working cattle will “survive” and “thrive” in the
harshest environments. Scott and Marcella will be an inte-
gral part of our operation as we move forward in the next
several years.
Wood Red Angus (MEW)
Mike, Kathryn, Katelyn and NickWood.
Wood Red Angus is located near Tahlequah, OK. They have
been raising Red Angus since 1985 and upgraded to NSF Red
Angus in 1987. They emphasize easy keeping, phenotypi-
cally correct cattle with excellent EPDs. Mike has been an in-
valuable help with the Herdbuilder bull and female sale. He
has been a strong supporter of our program and always
pitches in when we need an extra hand. Mike is one of the
most astute breeders in the country and has one of the
strongest minds for pedigrees that we have ever had the op-
portunity to know. Wood Red Angus is excited about their
partnership with LSF and look forward to the years to come.
They have bought the best, to offer you the best.
