GREETINGS FROM LOONAN STOCK FARM

Hello and welcome to our 48th annual production sale. Judy and I would like to thank all of our customers for your business. Without you, we would not be where we are today.

Every year I write this letter and it seems that every year there are different challenges to try and maneuver through, but somehow, we always seem to prevail. The weather is always a big factor, and this year was no different. The lack of moisture was a big issue for every producer. I’m so thankful for rural water it was our savior. This it very expensive but without it, our situation may have been way worse.

We feel we have an outstanding set of bulls to offer this year. Judy and I spend a lot of time trying to find the best genetics available to improve our cow herd and make these genetics available to our consumers. This year’s bulls are as complete as you will find anywhere in the country. Our goal is to bring you bulls that are good on their feet and legs, are born easily and grow rapidly with a quiet disposition and are phenotypically correct.

We have five new bulls with offspring on the sale this year. We purchased two Rebourne sons from Cross Diamond Cattle Co. to run with our heifers. Both are moderate framed with loads of muscle. Julian, another heifer bull we purchased at the Beckton Red Angus sale, is a super calving-ease bull. Watch for his calves if you’re looking for a heifer bull.

We also bought two Simmental bulls one from the Rydeen sale and one from Keller’s Broken Heart. Hard Rock is a heavy-muscled, long-sided bull that is as quiet as the day is long. His calves seem to be the same. Sniper was a bull we pen bred to so you will see a lot of his calves in the sale. Sniper has calving ease to go along with great performance.

If you’re in need of a herd bull, please feel free to come and look or give Judy or myself a call with any questions. We’ll do our best to answer any questions you might have.

We look forward to talking with you at our February 4th sale.

Thanks again for your support.
Judy and Rick

Our Vision for our Customers ...

Today, Judy and herdsman, Rick Thompson, continue to buy the best Red Angus and Simmental genetics available, expecting calving ease with rapid growth and good marbling and ribeye area.
