Spring/Summer 2026 1

The President's Pen Friends and Fellow Angus Breeders, As we head into the spring sale season, I want to encourage all of our members to get out and support Kansas Angus sales across the state. As breeders we work year round to produce highquality cattle backed by performance, sound genetics, and strong customer service. When we show up and support one another- whether as buyers, sellers, or simply fellow cattlemen-we strengthen not only individual programs, but our entire Kansas Angus Community.

This spring presents tremendous opportunity. The cattle market remains strong, and demand for quality Angus genetics continues to lead the industry. Commercial producers are recognizing the value that Kansas Angus producers can provide to meet that demand. It's an exciting time to be in the cattle business.

Thank you for your continued support and commitment to the Angus breed in Kansas

Stephanie Dickerson 2026 Kansas Angus Association President 785-445-5139

Inspiration Inspiration is what I needed when I sat down in my basement office to write this “notes and news”. I did the usual things that I do when starting to write and staring at a blank screen. Well, inspiration did not come. So, I decided to take a walk outside. A springlike February day greeted me, I noticed a few daffodils emerging in my flower beds, then I walked to check on cows that had calved recently, I was greeted with a calf basking in the sun and others playing a game of calf tag. No matter how many times I have watched calves frolic as only calves do there is still delight and pride and today maybe a little inspiration.

I headed back to the basement convinced that I was now ready to write.

I began to think about things that had happened in recent days. I had exchanged text messages with Mark Gardiner the morning after wildfire had ripped through their ranch and the area. When I asked what they needed the first thing he texted back was prayers. Thinking back to that text exchange, I know that prayer and faith are great inspiration always. I clerked one of the first bull sales of the season, sitting on the sale block recording bids I was in awe of the price every time that the gavel dropped. The final tally revealed that the Angus bulls averaged $10, 312.00, as Angus breeders that is something to be inspired about. I was getting ready for our rescheduled annual meeting, banquet and junior show worrying a little about how the reschedule would affect attendance, as the new deadline for banquet reservations and cancellations approached, I was excited that very few cancelled and we even gained junior show entries. I thought about the story on pages 14-15 of this issue. Frank Hinkson is the 2025 KAA Honorary Member, his story is inspiring. I also had a conversation with my son who lives in Illinois he was excited about how much his oldest son’s passion for cattle is exploding and that Weston will be showing a bred and owned heifer at his very first National Junior Angus Show this summer. That conversation made me think about all that inspired me to be passionate about Angus. Weston being the 5th generation in the family to own registered Angus cattle is all the inspiration I need to continue and this path that the Angus breed and its people have led me on.

Sometimes in our lives inspiration is hard to come by. But sometimes it can be found watching a game of calf tag on a warm February day. Where do you find inspiration?

"Inspiration is hard to come by. You have to take it where you find it." — Bob Dylan Anne S. Lampe,

Stock Show.

By Briley Richard

At the 2026 National Western Stock Show, industry leaders and cattle producers gathered to discuss how breeding, management, and marketing decisions can create value buyers recognize and reward. Sponsored by the Colorado Angus Association, the session focused on connecting production fundamentals to market success.

Presentations by Troy Marshall, director of commercial industry relations for the American Angus Association; Clay Burson, , Ph.D., associate beef technical specialist at Zinpro; and Ryan Rathmann, Ph.D., of Texas Tech University set the stage for a panel moderated by Kevin Ochsner, host of Cattlemen to Cattlemen on RFD-TV, and panelists Jason Hoffman, Hoffman Ranch; Rick Machado, auctioneer for Western Video Market; Steve Gabel, owner of Magnum Feedyard; and Troy Marshall.

Machado described it as, “what you have to sell is your name if you’re not retaining ownership all the way through.” Hoffman echoed this, adding that balancing risk versus reward as another key factor to a successful operation.

“You’ve got to stick your neck out where you can be a leader,” he said about taking chances. “But you’ve got to be grounded enough to stick to the basics too and produce good cattle they know they can count on.”

Down the Road -Finding a competitive edge requires foresight. As Ochsner noted, “your genetic decisions today have big ramifications years down the road.”

Producers who thoughtfully combine genetics, management and marketing can turn these decisions into a win for their bottom line.

Nutrition as a Value Multiplier -Nutrition remains one of the most influential factors of profitability. Burson highlighted how every sector of the industry feels the effects of a good nutrition program.

Donor Dam Requirements

Continued from page 4

The full suite of known commercially available tests for the genetic conditions monitored by the American Angus Association will be required for all donor dams, born on or after January 1, 2023, used for the purpose of Embryo Transfer. (As amended June 8, 2023.) Additional language was added on June 4 of 2024 to read: In the event DNA is unavailable from the donor dam for genetic condition testing, the full suite of known commercially available tests for the genetic conditions monitored by the American Angus Association will be required for all offspring applying for registration.

The Genetic Condition Bundle includes tests for all monitored genetic conditions including arthrogryposis multiplex (AM), neuropathic hydrocephalus (NH), contractual arachnodactyly (CA), osteopetrosis (OS), developmental duplication (DD), myostatin (M1), PRKG2 gene mutation for dwarfism (D2) and oculocutaneous hypopigmentation (OH). The test for coat color is also included.

As the Breeder’s Reference Guide changes from time to time, it is important to continually monitor the contents when you have questions regarding your operation. The rules could affect your registrations, sale cattle and possibly show deadlines. As always if you have questions, please contact the Member Services department.

From the Texas Panhandle to the Kansas Flinthills

Frank Hinkson II is the 2025 Honorary member of the Kansas Angus Association The following was written and presented by Trey Hinkson during the Kansas Angus Association Annual Banquet on February 28 when Frank Hinkson II was inducted into Honorary Membership of the KAA.

Hinkson Angus originated in the booming metropolis of Lazbuddie, Texas by Frank Hinkson Sr. The very first registered cows were purchased in 1959 out of Missouri with more of the true foundation cows purchased in 1961 at the Essar Ranch dispersal sale in San Antonio TX. Bucking the trend of the 60’s belt buckle cattle, Frank Hinkson Sr felt the need for a higher performing, larger framed animal so he ventured to the famous Wye Plantation in Maryland and brought 3 herd sires to the panhandle of Texas. Two of the bulls were sons of Fabron of Wye and one a son of the imported Prince of Malpus. Frank Sr. felt that more form would relate to more function and function would be greatly needed as most of the bulls raised at that time went to Arizona and had to cover a large commercial herd cow herd that Frank, Sr. co-owned with his brother Everett Hinkson. The ranch spanned thousands of acres, and the country was rough and desolate, so the bulls needed to be able to move and get out and cover some ground. This is the baseline foundation genetics of the cow herd that grazes the Flinthills of Kansas today.

Frank Hinkson II started his herd in 1961 at the age of 10 with the selection of five heifers out of his father’s herd.

This tradition was passed down as Frank’s son Trey started his herd at the age of 10, but in the tough times of 1983 Trey only got to pick one heifer. Frank grew up in Lazbuddie and graduated valedictorian of Lazbuddie High School in 1969 in a class of 8 seniors. Trey shares, “Mom was salutatorian, but Dad reminds her now and again she wasn’t even in the top 10% of the class. After a one-year stint at New Mexico State, Frank went home to Texas and graduated from Texas Tech University majoring in animal science. While at Tech, Frank was a member of both the football team as well as the livestock judging team. More success was attained on the judging team than the football team, but Frank sure proud of his Red Raiders this year just ask him! While at Tech he worked in the meats lab 3 years and graduated Magna Cum Laude from Texas Tech.

On December 28, 1970, he married his high school sweetheart Marilyn Joy Barnes. It’s tough to be a city girl in Frank & Marilyn Hinkson Lazbuddie Texas but mom was just that. She quickly grew into a rancher’s wife and as we all know behind every successful rancher is a wife that stands by them throughout all of life’s many changes. Whether it was working cattle, getting ready for a sale, stamping and mailing catalogs and raising 2 kids…Mom was always all in supporting all the way. Many hours of fixing meals, chasing kids, being on call for whatever ranch crisis comes along Marilyn was always game. All the while teaching school full time and leading the music team at church. She has set the standard of how a Christian wife supports and stands by her husband. It goes without saying, Frank and Marilyn’s greatest accomplishment was in1973 with the birth of a son, the 3rd Frank (Trey) four years later by a daughter, Tyla.

Coming back to the ranch from Texas Tech, Dad brought a vision and the need for the next step to the operation. Dad’s brother-in-law Glenn Lust was a partner in Hinkson and Lust. Lust Family Angus is still going strong in the Texas panhandle north of Lubbock with my cousin Tim and his son Dru at the helm.

AI was implemented in 1973 with the very first cows being bred to the famous Conan of Wye. Even then 2 ampules of semen and a certificate cost $250. Hinkson Angus was an original member of the AHIR program in the mid 60’s and performance data has been taken and submitted for close to 60 years. Performance testing bulls has long been a staple the ranch. The first ever pen of bulls to gain 4 pounds a day at the Tucumcari Bull Test was bred by Hinkson Angus and Hinkson genetics are still being tested today at Tucumcari with the Lust Family. One of the first home-raised herd sires, Hinksonite 7 was on the first ever Pathfinder Report put out by the American Angus Association. There were only 11 bulls in the country in that initial report. The first female production sale was held in 1979 at the ranch in Lazbuddie. It was a huge success, buyers at that inaugural sale included Rusk Ranch, Kansas; R&J Ranch, Texas; Flint Angus, New Mexico; Windy Acres Nebraska; Huckfeld-Krebs, Nebraska and Deep Down Angus in Texas.

Move to Kansas In 1984, the family corporation was dissolved and the decision to purchase land in Chase County Kansas was made. Two trucks with 90 head of registered Angus cows arrived at the ranch in the spring of 1985. The original homeplace had absolutely no corrals, one old barn, and an abandoned house with no indoor plumbing. Needless to say, a lot of work was done on the ranch in the past 41 years. This past summer we hosted a wedding at the ranch with over 300 people.

“This herd was built with the commercial cattleman in mind with emphasis on the After the move to Kansas most of the bulls were sold private treaty to local customers as well as back to ranches in Texas and New Mexico. For two years we joined forces with Arlos economically important traits. Calving Rusk and Richard Poland to have the Cowboy EPD Bull sale, before we held our first bull ease, high maternal, adequate carcass sale at the Emporia Sale Barn in 1998. A quote from that first bull sale catalog 28 years traits and as much growth as those 3 traits ago states “This herd was built with the commercial cattleman in mind with emphasis on the can withstand. There is no single trait economically important traits. Calving ease, high maternal, adequate carcass traits and as selection here…no matter what the trait.” much growth as those 3 traits can withstand. There is no single trait selection here…no matter what the trait.” Frank’s philosophy to breeding cattle was published for the first time in Frank Hinkson II 1998 but it was practiced for 28 years before that, and it is still the Hinkson’s philosophy 28 years later.

14 Kansas Angus News

As passionate as Frank Hinkson is about Angus cattle, anyone who really knows him knows he is a man of faith first and foremost. His love for his family and for his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is non-negotiable. Cattle do not come before faith and family. If there was an elder meeting at church or a ball game in which a child or grandchild was competing in, then the cows just might have to wait a bit because Faith and Family are and always will be first. If Frank Hinkson had a dollar for every ball game or track meet, he attended over the years with two athletic kids and five athletic grandkids playing he would have enough money to buy the next herd sire for the ranch. I (Trey) was fortunate enough to play college football for four years in 7 different states. I only recall one game my dad missed in both high school and college. Ironically it was due to a previous commitment he had in 1996 while performing his duties as President of the Kansas Angus Association.

Frank Hinkson is a true pioneer in many ways. Not afraid to go against the grain and take a chance. Like leaving all he knew in Texas for Kansas with 90 cows and a lot of faith. He’s never been opposed to finding and plugging in new genetics from other herds as well. Since moving to Kansas in 1985, we have purchased cattle from the following Kansas programs: Molitor Angus Ranch, Gene Barrett, Hinrichsen Ranch , April Valley Farms , Stucky Ranch, Gardiner Angus Ranch, Benoit Angus, Dalebanks, Tim Benton, Mike Lindell, Galen and Lori Fink, Laflins Ranch , New Haven Angus, McCurry Bros., Lyons Ranch, Richard Poland, Chris and Sharee Sankey, Woodbury Farms, Bar S Ranch, Downey Ranch, Kim-Mac Farms and our friends Jan and Arden Oleen. “Now some of those purchases worked and some didn’t, and we are keeping that information to ourselves! but I’m here to tell you if we haven’t bought from you either need to get to know my dad or work on your marketing strategy.”

Today the ranch consists of around 300 fall calving cows. We are still keeping records, utilizing AI and embryo transfer, and Dad is still plugging along feeding stuff way more than they need, not much changes around here. In March on St. Patricks’ Day, we will host our 28 th annual bull and female sale at the same location that looked abandoned in 1985. You don’t stick around in the seed stock business for 6 years much less 67 years by selling an inferior product…we feel the cattle speak for themselves. But time and time again customers have told me one of the reasons they come back year after year is because if Frank Hinkson says it then they know it’s the gospel truth. He stands behind those cattle and if there is ever anything that goes wrong, we know he is honest and will make it right.

We all know it’s about the people in this business not really the cattle. Frank truly believes treating people fairly is way more important than what the sale average was. The plaque above dad’s desk which was also above my grandfather’s desk. The Bible verse inscribed on it is Proverbs 22:1 “A good name is more desirable than great riches”. The Angus breed has given so much to our family and Dad has most definitely done his part in giving back.

Frank has served as a voting delegate to the American Angus Association Annual Convention for Delegates representing Texas and then Kansas over 25 times. He was the President of the KAA in 1996 and was set to be President of the TAA in 1986, but we moved to Kansas.

Hinkson Ranch has hosted field days, tours, judging teams, and cattleman’s groups throughout the years and every time Dad is singing the praises of Angus cattle. But only after he gets done introducing and bragging about his family. He is the most patient person I have known Frank Hinkson 1996 KAA President or ever will know. Putting up with me (and Mom) daily he should be rewarded with a metal.

Amid chaos and craziness, he is always the voice of calm and reason. I hold the distinction of being one of the very few people to ever see him truly mad. It doesn’t happen very often.

I promise you Frank Hinkson would be more comfortable watching his Red Raiders on TV or in his feed truck feeding cows than being recognized for his accomplishments among his friends and peers. He is extremely proud of the success of Hinkson Angus. Being awarded the 2019 Beef Improvement Federation Seedstock producer or the year was a nice honor and kind of cool, but Frank Hinkson would prefer you knew about the Christian family he stems from and those same values and traditions that he has passed onto the generations after him. Cattle many times were merely the medium he used to pass that along. He is a blue collar, hardworking, patient man who wants to be under the radar doing his job, supporting his family and serving his Lord and Savior. There isn’t a more deserving person to be honored as the 2025 Honorary member to Kansas Angus Association.

Congratulations Dad.
