At Flying W Ranch we have strived to produce cattle that are fertile and productive since 1974. Our cattle remain productive in this tough West Texas country in good years and bad. They can travel in our big rocky pastures and stay in good flesh. Our goal is to produce bulls for our customers with light birth weights and high calving ease so they are trouble free. Our cattle are moderate ,easy fleshing and very gentle and beefy. Our females are feminine long bodied and attractive with great udders. We have had 54 cows achieve Maternal Merit status as well as 9 bulls with Maternal Sire awards. While we are proud of these achievements this was not something were trying to do but simply a result of our putting emphasis on fertility and production .
In the past 12 years we have put more effort in improving carcass quality . Using ultrasound we have identified our genetics to improve those traits. The past two years our females have averaged 4 imf. We I’ll continue to try and improve our carcass traits while never losing sight of fertility and production. Our bull offering in this sale would help any breeder concerned with those traits and be an asset in any herd registered or commercial .
Thank you, Steve Wilkins
