THE HERD BOOK

THE HERD BOOK OF CAVENDER COW FAMILIES

would like to introduce you to The Herd Book of Cavender Cow Families. We wanted to share a little about our philosophy in building our cow herd at Cavender Ranches and our approach to building better Brangus cattle. At Cavender Ranches, we are consumers of our own genetics. We continue to run our commercial operation marketing replacement females at our two annual sales and feeding/harvesting our steers and non-replacement quality females. We are not a boutique registered outfit, but rather a performanceoriented, commercially-driven seedstock supplier. Our goal is not to sell a few high dollar bulls and females each year but rather to have a lot of successful cattlemen that count on us year after year to continually improve our seedstock and in turn improve their cowherds and bottom lines.

Our goal at Cavender Ranches is to produce functional cattle with eye appeal and carcass value. We want enough ear and phenotype in our bulls to produce high demand Brangus commercial females who are environmentally suited for a wide cross section of our country. We are aware there are some herds and regions that need a little less ear while others may need to reduce frame and add thickness. We aspire to offer a variety of type and kind while maintaining consistency and uniformity in performance and quality throughout our bull offering.

With this challenge in mind, over the last 12 years we have built a foundation Angus herd with the intent of creating new bloodlines to add more carcass value into the Brangus purebred population. We like to start with a UB1 that has a Brangus look. We began choosing to use what we thought

Wewere the best Brangus bulls in the breed while also selecting sires that were looser made. As we progressed, we tried to choose Brangus sires that were complimentary to our UB1 females to continue a path toward UB2 and Brangus. We focused on EPDs, underlines and breed character as we made future mating choices. Our end product goal and vision has been to have “best of breed” EPDs and multi-trait leading genetics in a balanced package. We have seen tremendous uniformity and consistency in our new Brangus breed up cattle. In combination with great EPDs we also want eye appealing cattle with enough ear and adequate, but not excessive, underlines which are often discounted in both the purebred and commercial marketplace. We strive to produce moderate framed, functional cattle that can maintain their flesh in real-world situations while gaining in the feedyard and grading at harvest. We want cattle from our program to excel when compared to other breeds, regardless of the yardstick used to measure them.

Our traditional Brangus cowherd features many of the breed’s leading cow families including 541, 415, 468, 75, 117, 2, 63, 99, 406, 561, 803 and 924. We have infused many of our new Brangus herd sires into our traditional cow families providing a boost in their EPD profile where needed, either growth, carcass or birthweight. Sometimes, one cross totally changes an EPD profile and will allow much greater flexibility in the subsequent matings, allowing the incorporation of fresh new herd sires. Through this disciplined approach we will continue our pursuit of better cattle.

We hope you enjoy this look at our cow herd and hope it gives you insight to where we are going in our breeding program.

Sincerely,

A TRADITION OF QUALITY

Angus Foundation Cow Families at Cavender Ranches

Wetook a little different approach as we continued to build our cow herd. We dedicated resources to owning some of the best, real-world, functional Angus females we could afford. We selected females that would complement the herd bull battery we had available. We felt that being a maternal breed with carcass, it would be more advantageous to infuse our foundation with great maternal genetics. We selected females to fit our environment and capable of making good bulls. We selected Angus females from many of the prominent cow families in the Angus world, from breeders we respect.

Brangus Foundation Cow Families at Cavender Ranches

With over 25 years of breeding Brangus cattle, we continue to emphasize sound, functional cattle capable of producing top end range bulls in volume. We continue to push the envelope in performance while maintaining a handle on cow size. We remain a consumer of our own bulls for our commercial herd, allowing us to benchmark our product within the industry both in terms of feedlot and carcass performance and replacement females sold commercially in our sales and as replacements for our herd.

The Brangus Foundation cow families represented in our registered herd have stood the test of time and we will continue to propagate the elite genetics they represent.
