IT MATTERS WHERE YOU BUY YOUR BULLS
The common denominator in every set of feeder calves, heifer calves and bred heifers
that are offered for sale is the BULL POWER that stands behind them.
The quality price spread can often be tremendous.
Don’t get caught with a bull battery that doesn’t measure up.
Hinman Angus bulls meet the commercial cattlemen’s needs by
producing bulls that accomplish the economic traits of
• Calving Ease • Pounds at Weaning
• Uniformity and Eye Appeal
• Females that are the Angus, Mother Cow Kind
