Welcome to the Rudow Family Cattle “Top Cut” Bull Sale. The task of bull selection is not taken lightly here. We want bulls that look like bulls! Bulls that will produce sound, functional, easy fleshing, LIVE calves that will keep you in the beef business. Our main objective is to breed predictable and reliable genetics. While we do value certain numbers such as CED, BW, $EN and Milk, we feel that more emphasis should be placed on the animal that we see every day. Does she have good feet? What does her udder look like? What is her body condition? Is she raising a good calf? Good cows produce good bulls!
“BULLS THAT WILL PRODUCE SOUND, FUNCTIONAL, EASY FLESHING, LIVE CALVES THAT WILL KEEP YOU IN THE BEEF BUSINESS.” Half of the offering is a product of ET or AI breeding. All of these bulls are backed by generations of donors and donor- quality females from proven cow families that we believe in. To say that these bulls have big shoes to fill is an understatement. While browsing the catalog you will notice that some of bulls are
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.
full and half- sibs to bulls that have made and are still leaving quite a mark on the Angus breed. The sale will be conducted the same as last year- bulls are housed at the farm, a live auction at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Pana and online bidding available on CCI.Live on March 20, 2023 at 7:00 PM CST. The bulls are available for viewing at your convenience. Feel free to give us or any sale staff a call with questions. We look forward to visiting with you. Sincerely, Bill & Nancy Rudow

Rudow’s Kasey 28 is result of an ET planned mating to produce a Power & Growth bull. Lot 3 is backed the elite Genex herd sire, Administrator that was 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. Administrator’s dam is a DCC Gunsmoke x OCC Joker. Predictable & Powerful Pedigree!! Lets not forget about Lot 3’s mother, CRCC Reyna 0566. She is the mother of a past walking herd sire Rudow’s Deplorable 60. She is the kind of cow that stamps style and presence into her offspring. Every Rudow’s Deplorable 60 daughter is the replacement heifer kind. Good looking, maternal, and built to be a cow. Quality and style run deep in this family tree; we believe Rudow’s Kasey 28 will leave a lasting impact for several years to come. He has a herd bull presence about him and is genetically sound on both the top and bottom side of his pedigree.

OPPORTUNITY IS KNOCKING!!! 152 is a full ET brother to the Genex herd sire, Rudow’s Administrator 333. Wait….what? A full sib to Administrator? YES!!! Rudow’s Dutton 152 is a cool looking, powerful bull that not only has a powerful pedigree, but reads as a calving option once his genomics have come back. WOW. His 2009 model mother has been hit hard for growth being a 2009 model cow, but Administrator has proven that these genetics grow. Growth genetics with unlimited power and presence. Don’t go out looking for Administrator semen when you can find a full sib brother to replace him in a calving ease package. Check out his video. He continues to be even more impressive each and every day. The phrase Power In The Blood absolutely and without question describes the genetic power of this great individual.

It doesn’t matter who you are, or where you live or what your priorities are…..you’ll want to take this herd bull home. Rudow’s Kolt 27 is an extremely unique individual and has been since Day 1. For all of you phenotype gurus out there, that love to evaluate cattle, I don’t know if I have seen a bull that looks like this standout. His mother, ZWT Lady 2566 has a stacked pedigree combining EXT & Coleman Donna with OCC Primrose 932L. That cow alone has been sought after in the Ohlde, Duff, Griswold, and ZWT programs as well as Rudow Family Cattle. 2566 was a phenomenal cow with great udder structure, perfect feet, and a massively stout build. Lot 5A and his flush brother that sells as Lot 5B are sired by Wholesome which if you have been following along has been a mainstay of our program. We are not only AI’ing cows to him again, we are flushing our top donors. He combines Duff New Look 101 (OCC Genesis x OCC Dixie Erica 814G) with our go to cow family E & B Empress Pride 142. Powerful genetics on both sides of the pedigree makes for predicable and reliable genetics for the future. For a Angus bull to be this ripped up, and still be shaped so seamlessly from his shoulder back to his hip is extremely hard to do. He is built flawless with a solid foot underneath him and and he moves so effortlessly. Can you believe it…..after all of this, he is still a heifer bull. Wow!!!

5B Talk about a true combination bull, Rudow’s Kolten 201 does it all. He is a full brother to Lot 5A that you found across the page. Not only is he another calving ease bull, he combines one of the most proven old school pedigrees that Rudow Family Cattle has built a program around. He really follows the program being a calving ease, maternal, easy fleshing bull with the look that all cowboys are looking for. 201 is striking from the side, sound structured, huge middled and has that proud presence when he covers the pen. He will be an option that will allow you to keep every heifer calf that hits the ground that will strike the attention of any buyer.

Lot 6 - Rudow’s Kurt 20
You’ve got to see him to believe it. If there was ever a bull I felt could rival the look and power of Basin Payweight 1682 and any of his multiple big time sons, it might just be Rudow Kurt 20. He is backed by without a doubt one of the best cows ever to walk at Rudow Family Cattle, Rudow’s Empress Pride 414. Lot 6 has been a ground pounding “Mack Truck” ever since the very early days after he was born. I have never seen an Angus bull maintain this much mass, dimension, capacity, and muscle the whole way through. He is a great footed bull that is sound and is so easy going. As you all know; we don’t chase the EPD game. Our growth numbers are typically really low because of the “Old School” bloodlines we like. This is the biggest growth bull in the entire offering! This bull does everything right. If you saw his mother you would buy him and breed every cow you own to him.

Rudow’s Queen 460 Dam of Lot 8
If you missed last years “Top Cut” bull sale I will give you the “cliff note” version. THE OLD SPICE BULLS DOMINATED!! Bill Rudow is a studier of the game. When breeding cattle he finds cow families and sticks to them if they work. Old Spice combines one of his favorite cow family’s Juanada 927K both on the top and bottom side of the pedigree. Last years high selling bull that commanded $12,000 to Carrousel Farms in Wisconsin is a full sib brother to Lot 8. Rudow’s Queen 460 has since had this outstanding herd bull prospect and become a donor cow for the Rudow Family Cattle Operation. 460 is a direct daughter of 820 a New Edition daughter that is one of Bill Rudow’s all time favorites that he has raised. He wants a pasture full of them. We believe that Rudow’s Tate 156 is one of the most impressive Old Spice sons to surface in a very strong lineup of bulls that will follow in this section of the catalog. He is 460’s natural calf and she has done it again producing a soft made, easy fleshing, sound structured bull that will be a valuable calving ease & maternal making herd bull that will follow in his elite brothers footsteps.

Capital Gain 74 is a bull we raised here and have extensively cleaned up the cow herd with. Take a look at the genetics that back him up. Donors like 813 and Empress Pride are both in his pedigree. Now take a look at the cow backing up this herd bull. Her pedigree stacks New Look, E&B Empress Pride 142, Gunsmoke and 814G all in the pedigree. He has the look and genetics to become an elite herd bull candidate.

If you are a Muscle & Power junkie, HERE IS YOUR BULL!!!! Kash 21 has been a favorite since he has hit the ground and has developed into a major herd bull candidate. He has extreme herd bull character and phenotype from every angle. He is big footed, rugged, and sound. I would challenge anyone to find an angus bull that is this stout while holding a modest BW and CED. If you are looking for an impressive bull to power up your herd, tie into this one.

Here is an opportunity to purchase a direct son of OCC You Bet 800Y. Just because Rudow’s Kooper 24’s mother, wasn’t registered, doesn’t mean she wasn’t a good cow. We are strict to cull cows that have inferior production, poor udders, and bad feet. She has passed all of these traits and has produced one heck of a good herd bull here in Lot 14.

This non-registered Angus bull is a commercial cattleman’s dream. This OCC You Bet 800Y son is a sure shot heifer bull that can be turned out and you won’t worry about calving the daughters. Take a look at this big time herd bull prospect also. Stout built, good looking and sound structured. Our loss is your gain that he isn’t registered. Powerful bull with promising potential.

The next 6 bulls are all sired by Rudow’s Grit 928. Grit is a Draft Day (New Look x 932L) out of a You Bet x 004. You can travel lots of miles trying to find bulls with proven cows backing bulls up like this. The bull to headline this group is Lot 16. What an impressive bull he is. Stout, square built, good looking, with extra growth and power. That is what you will find in this Grit sire group of bulls.

Jake is a really soft made, loose structured, power bull that is so flexible in his build. Just like all of this brothers he is a low maintenance bull that will inject powerful performance and growth with modest BW calves.

Here is a big, stretchy, long bodied, smooth made Grit son that has packed on the pounds all year. Dixie Erica 91 weans off heavy calves each year and she hit it out of the park this time with 162. If you sell calves by the pound and want to keep replacement heifers, this bull is a very good choice.

Rudow’s Jacked 161 begins the section of bulls sired by our herdsire Rudow’s Gage 90 which is an Old Spice out of a You Bet daughter. Lot 22 comes from a strong lineage of greats stemming back from one of the original cow families we started the Angus program around Cane Ridge Treasure 2317M. The dam of Lot 22, 839 raised a bull that we retained to breed our cows to last year and he is walking the pastures at Rudow Family Cattle today. We believe in this cow family and feel this herd bull will be very valuable to his new owner.

If you are still reading these footnotes you have finally found these 1/2 blood Simmental bulls sired by Loverboy. Lot 25 is the winner of all the bulls for growth, length, and weight. He combines that with an incredible 13.5 CED and negative BW and all that performance. WOW!!!
Here is a phenotype rockstar that closes the sale. The only reason he is lotted as the last bull in the sale catalog is because he is the Youngest and a 1/2 blood Simmental. He very well could be right at the front end of the bull group. 26K is impressive. Deep, stout, sound, good looking, and the list can keep going. What impresses me most about these Loverboy’s is the 13.5 CED and negative BW EPD. Heifer Bull & GOOD BULL! 19

Consigned by Hanson Land & Cattle Selling 3 conventional embryos, guaranteeing one pregnancy When the decision was made to offer embryos in this sale; we committed to offer our best genetics possible. Swigart asked because 3/4 of the cow herd stems back to the E&B Empress Pride 142 cow if we had any embryos left on her. Rudow Family Cattle didn’t, but we found some from our long time customer and friend Doug Hanson in Danforth, IL. Without a doubt 142 has made a huge impact and it is the last opportunity to purchase direct offspring from her in a sale. It is only fitting the sire of this mating is a true female maker OCC Emblazon 854E. Once in a lifetime opportunity here! 20

Her and her heifer calf just headlined the female sale last fall commanding $22,000. Before letting her go, we flushed her old school to a bull that got away from us too soon, Rudow’s Full Throttle 212. 212 combines OCC Legend, Gunsmoke, and the CRCC Reyna 0566 which are 3 genetic lines we have always loved. We have only a few daughters working for our program out of 212, and THEY ARE SPECIAL. No matter if you get a bull, heifer or a couple calves you will be impressed by how stout this mating will be and how much earning potential the calves will have. 21
