ANNUAL PRODUCTION SALE ONLINE TIMED EVENT
FEBRUARY 15, 2026

What a time to be in the beef business! Cattle producers are a tough bunch, and we are grateful for a market that is currently rewarding the hard work and dedication that it takes to raise registered cattle.
We are excited to bring you a set of high quality Simmental and SimAngus bulls and heifers. They will take your calves to the next level in performance– more pounds at weaning and replacements with some hybrid vigor to give you that extra boost. The sale yards love Sim X cattle– everybody wins with these kind– they grow, they yield and they hang a great carcass.
You can be certain that you are getting the best SimGenetics in this set. We’ve been breeding them for decades– this isn’t something we just dabble in- our very best cows are used to make you a herdsire or replacement heifer that will perform and last.
We genuinely appreciate each and every customer, your success is our success!
John, Shauna, Olivia & Paige Hinton - Lester & Paula Hinton
