WELCOME TO RUDOW FAMILY CATTLE TOP CUT BULL SALE

First and foremost, we want to thank you for taking the time to look through the bull offering. The number of bull sales this time of year is incredible and we know how valuable time is! We take your time very seriously and truly appreciate your consideration of our program.

Without doubt we think this is the stoutest set of bulls that we have raised to date. Notice that the majority of the bulls are a product of ET or AI service. 8 of the bulls selling are out of Rudow’s Queen 460, a donor that did not miss. We sold 460 in a past production sale to Stan Comer of OK and we hear she is doing amazing work for him as well!

At Rudow Family Cattle we believe in good doing cattle that you enjoy looking at in the pasture. The kind of cattle that will keep you in business. We do look at some EPDs. All of the bulls have been 50K tested. We don’t want to raise bulls that will cause calving problems for our customers. Bottom line, without a live calf none of us stays in business. We aren’t into the latest trend.

We would rather take the proven genetics and enhance what we have. In all sincerity, we believe in that philosophy so much that we have been flushing to those “Old School” proven genetics. We spent numerous hours looking for those bulls that would sire bulls and females. The bulls that we knew would give us what we want to see in the bull pen and the replacement pen. Well, we made our decision. We flushed to Duff New Edition, OCC Zenith, Rudow’s Wholesome and Rudow’s Administrator to name a few. We have not been disappointed. We are just as pleased with the bulls as we are with their flush mates in our replacement pasture.

BREEDING GUARANTEE

All bulls have passed a breeding soundness exam. Rudow Family Cattle will provide a first breeding season guarantee on all bulls. The first breeding season is defined as 90 days after the first turn out. This guarantee is not an insurance or mortality policy, but a guarantee on functional fertility. It is not a substitute or replacement for poor management or neglect. These are young bulls that are still developing and proper care and adequate nutrition is the responsibility of the buyer. Buyer assumes all risks for injury due to bulls running together. For the guarantee to apply, Rudow Family Cattle asks to be contacted as soon as the condition is observed and before the animal is sold. Rudow Family Cattle will work with you to determine whether the animal is returned or sold for slaughter.

Rudow Family Cattle will attempt to provide a replacement. If one cannot be provided, a sale credit, to be used in the next “Top Cut” bull sale, for full purchase price of the bull less the salvage value of the animal will be issued. Replacement bulls are not covered by this guarantee. No claims will be accepted after six months from sale date.

The sale will be conducted the same as last year. The bulls are here at the house available to be viewed at your convenience anytime up until sale time. The live auction will be in town at the Knights of Columbus Hall located at 213 S. Locust St., Pana, IL 62557 at 7:00 PM CST. Online bidding is available on CCi.LIVE. Shelby Vet Services will conduct Breeding Soundness Exams on March 4, 2025. The bulls were weighed the first of February when they were clipped for pictures. Their projected sale day weights are posted in the catalog. Videos will be posted on CCi.LIVE and on our Facebook page. Please feel free to contact us or any sale staff with questions. We look forward to visiting with you!

Sincerely, Bill & Nancy Rudow

Rudow’s Administrator 333 Paternal Grandsire of Lots 1 and 2

Rudow’s Felon 339 is one of the leadoff bulls that headlines the Rudow’s Administrator 820 sire group. Lot 1 is one powerful individual that ties look, presence and power all together in a combination package.

Rudow’s Administrator 820 is a direct son of Rudow’s Administrator 333 that was the high selling bull in the Duff Cattle Company Power Plus sale and went on to be leased to Genex. Rudow’s Landmark 97 is a daughter of Duff Old Spice. Old Spice is a son of Carry On but maybe even more important stems from Juanita 927K who is a maternal powerhouse.

339 really follows the Rudow Family Cattle program. Moderate framed, easy fleshing, and maternal with a skeleton that smashes down the scales.

He has a look that all cowboys are searching for. Lot 1 is striking from the side, sound structured, huge middled and has a proud presence when he covers the pen. He will be a herd bull you will want to keep every heifer calf that hits the ground and they will strike the attention of any buyer.

Rudow’s Hondo 338 is one of the deepest, stoutest, heaviest boned and biggest footed bulls in the entire offering. He is a square hipped, moderate framed bull that is equipped with an ideal amount of power and body which will produce game changing offspring. His dam has a near perfect udder and is super easy fleshing. Lot 2 is a real-world herd bull with heifer bull figures making him an elite sire candidate.

FEATURE BULL!!! Hands down one of the best combinations bulls of the entire sale. He is a good looking stout made, power bull all while being very attractive in his build. His genetics are….VERY VALUABLE! Maternal breed leading genetics back him up with Wholesome, New Look E&B Empress Pride 142, OCC You Bet, and GCC Missing Link to name a few. Not to mention the 48 cow that is an absolute Model Angus Cow. Predictable pedigrees combined with powerful herd bull presence is the recipe for success.

4 Rudow’s Wholesome 330 Lot 4 is sired by Wholesome 953 who blends New Look with E&B Empress Pride 142, a mainstay of our program. We are not only AI’ing cows to him again, we have flushed cows back to Wholesome. Powerful genetics on both the top and bottom side of Lot 4’s pedigree makes for predictable and reliable genetics for the future. For Angus bulls to be this ripped up with muscle and still be shaped to seamlessly from their shoulders back is extremely hard to do. They are built flawlessly with a solid foot underneath them and they move so effortlessly. Can you believe it….after all of this, he is still a heifer bull. Wow!!!

Whoa….Welcome to the Big League! We don’t always follow trends, in fact we typically may go a little more the opposite direction here at Rudow Family Cattle, but Riverstone Vegas intrigues us. When you combine Casino with breed leading genetics that bred more to our cow family principals like OCC Paxton, Coleman Dixie Erica 8277, SAV Final Answer, Coleman Donna 714, EXT, and Travelor 6807 just to name a few. Rudow’s Queen 460, Lot 5’s mother was the 2023 high seller and we made these embryos right before she sold. Rudow’s Lucky Strike 340 is so unique in his build. Stout, soft centered and sleek necked with presence of a true Herd Bull.

Lot 6 BIG TIME OPPORTUNITY!!! Rudow Family Cattle has dug deep into the embryo tank and look what they found…..

Duff New Edition x Rudow’s Queen 460’s.

Not just 1 but 6 flush brothers. Wow are these herd bulls impressive. We believe Rudow’s Lawless 333 is one of the most impressive phenotype standouts in the offering. He is so good looking with a powerful shape and a square build.

He combines it with a power packed pedigree. Bid and buy with confidence.

If you are looking for an impressive bull to power up your herd, tie into this one.

He is a deep, stout, sound and good looking bull that is impressive from every angle. Top Rudow Genetics is what is so exciting about Lot 12: Rudow’s Capital Gain 50 is an OCC You Bet Son back to the 262 donor.

127 is a young and exciting cow by Basin Payweight 1682 back to another established cow family here at Rudow Family Cattle. The 021 cow is a past donor and backed by one of the most influential cows in the program, E&B Empress Pride 142. Don’t miss this bull. He is ELITE!

Lot 13 Talk about an extremely unique herd bull, Rudow’s Top Shelf 329 is it. Zenith has sired both bulls and females for many years here and we continue to go back to him for his ability to sire cattle with consistent balance and maternal strength without sacrificing growth. Lot 13’s Coleman Knight mother is one of our favorite cows here at Rudow Family Cattle. She is massive in her rib cage and a mouth watering udder when in production. We believe in these genetics.

Welcome to the Big Time! We stepped out of the box and sampled a maternal powerhouse and growth bull MAR Innovation 251. When reading pedigrees of some of the most influential growth cows in the breed, you find this herd sire. We crossed him with some of our “Old School” pedigrees like OCC Bonanza and DCC Gunsmoke that you find in the pedigree of Lot 15. We absolutely loved the outcome of Rudow’s Revolution 328. Balance, style, growth and maternal all in one very complete bull package.

Lot 16 Rudow’s Ladd 326 is an elite performance bull that does it all. He combines mass, power, stoutness and growth in a calving ease package. He stacks predictable genetics, combining GCC Missing Link with OCC You Bet and stemming from the 410 cow. These cow families have been elite herd bull raisers for us in the past.

HEIFER BULL & GOOD BULL!

Rudow’s Administrator 333 Sire of Lot 18

We begin the yearling division with an absolute STANDOUT! Rudow’s Outlaw 407 is impressive! This phenotype standout is sired by Rudow’s Administrator 333. Administrator is the elite Genex herd sire that was once described as one of the most unique bulls to ever sell through the famed Duff Cattle Company Power Plus bull sale. 333 infuses a powerful pedigree combining Wholesome 953’s sire New Look and the famous E&B Empress Pride 142. Administrators dam is a DCC Gunsmoke x OCC Joker. Predictable & Powerful Pedigree! Let’s not forget about Lot 18’s mother. Rudow’s Queen 460 is the Zenith daughter that topped the 2023 female sale and has raised numerous high selling bulls including the top selling bull to Carrousel Farms in the 2023 Bull Sale. 407 has a herd bull presence about him and is genetically sound on both the top and bottom sides of his pedigree.

For all of the phenotype gurus out there who love to evaluate cattle, I don’t know if I have seen another bull that looks like this guy.

Lot 21 Wow….You think his neck ties high at the top of his shoulder and blends in to a dimensional center body? Lot 21 is impressive from every angle. He is dimensional and has tremendous shape.

This powerhouse may very well be one of the best herd bull prospects to sell. His 2 elite sisters averaged $8000 in the fall female sale. This bull is SPECIAL!
