2025 SALE REPORT With standing room only, a huge crowd watched as our sale went down in the record books as the largest in our stud’s history – and to achieve a full clearance was nothing short of humbling. To think that we currently hold Australia’s largest single bull sale, selling 283 bulls with only a small workforce, makes the result all the more rewarding for our full-time team members Marcos and Declan.

Our 283 bulls averaged $16,233, topping at $75,000 for Lot 48 Texas U-CRACKER U983, purchased by Eungy Pastoral QLD. Long- term repeat client Chris Kemp returned after last year’s success with the $100,000 top-priced Texas TNT T317, once again secur- ing our headline bull.

Queensland and NSW dominated the buying, with strong sup- port also from WA, VIC, and NT. Highlights included: Lot 46 Texas UNDERDOG U1000 and Lot 47 Texas U-DAH- MAN U317, both making $65,000, sold to Lunar Brangus/ Ultra Blacks QLD and Santa Hat Santas QLD respectively.

Plumthorpe Pastoral secured Lot 22 Texas DEADWOOD U999 ($47,500) and Lot 55 Texas VELOCITY V53 ($55,000).

Two equal volume buyers – Dobkin Pastoral NSW and Tieyon Station NT – each took home 11 bulls, both valued repeat clients.

A special moment came when our PTIC heifer donated to the Angus Youth Foundation sold for $32,500 to return buyers Moorunga Angus VIC. Just two days later she calved down a healthy 25kg bull calf – perfectly timed!

We were so proud of this year’s result – not only for the averages and top prices, but because every client, new and returning, was able to secure quality bulls from $6,000 upwards.

The feedback was consistent: the draft of sale bulls was so even that “choosing was easy – they were all the same quality.” true, proven performance of our cattle.

2025 RNA PADDOCK PALATE SUCCESS We were absolutely thrilled to win the highly coveted Class 40 – 100 Day HGP Free at the 2025 RNA Paddock to Palate Competition.

This year saw the largest class in the history of the event, and with just one pen entered, to come out on top against the very best in the industry and take home the prestigious Arthur and Kath Bassingthwaighte AO Trophy was truly unforgettable. Sharing such a special night with our children Rosie, Will, and Lachie – and with Marcos, Hughie, and Tex by our side made the celebrations even more meaningful.

While the accolades are rewarding, the real value lies in the data and benchmarking against all breeds and crosses – the toughest competition in the country. For over a decade, we’ve submitted this carcase data into Angus Australia’s database, and today our EBVs reflect the true, proven performance of our cattle.

Perhaps our proudest achievement at the RNA is the consistency we’ve shown over the last five years. To repeatedly record the highest and secondhighest marbling scores in the competition – and to consistently place 1st or 2nd overall – proves our program is not only delivering on qual- ity but also hitting market specifications that drive profitability across every sector of the beef industry.
