Comments from the sale manager:
RUDOW FAMILY CATTLE – CATTLE THAT EXCEL FOR FEED
EFFICIENCY ON GRASS
On behalf of the American Angus Hall of Fame, it is certainly a pleasure to be
working with such a great family as Bill and Nancy and their children on such a
wonderful sale offering. This inaugural event marks one of the greatest first time
Angus selections ever offered in the 140 years of the history of the Angus breed.
Bill and Nancy Rudow have put together an outstanding set of Angus genetics
that excel for feed efficiency and cattle that excel for
low input and phenotype.
These cattle are backed by breed leading AI sires and the most prominent cow
families within the industry and are selected for the look of an Aberdeen Angus
female. They excel for volume, feed efficiency, thickness and
structure.
As you flip through the catalog you will find an array of genetics that will fit any
seedstock program and add to the bottom side. We have a wonderful set of
donor females to offer, an elite set of bred heifers and service-age bulls.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact any of us at the
American Angus Hall of Fame at (816) 532-0811.
Sincerely,
