WELCOME TO THE WESTERN ANGUS BULL SALE Welcome to our 11th Annual
Western Angus Bull Sale!
Customers and Fellow Cattlemen, It’s exciting to see the state of the cattle business today. Record prices by the day at times. It is so nice to see the hard work of so many who endured the hard times rewarded for their efforts. Finally. The bulls are an excellent group. Once again, our emphasis is on calving ease, performance, maternal and carcass potential. Many of the bulls have the calving ease to breed heifers as young bulls, but the power to breed your cows as they get on in years. Curve Breeders.
The Wes Merrill Family
