Finishing Touches...

The leaves are turning, the air is thinking about being crisp in the morning and with all of this seasonal change, it is time to get in high gear for the upcoming sale.  The sale catalog will be mailed the middle of next week to our mailing list.  If you're not on it and you would like to be, simply shoot us an e-mail at heath@ratcliffranch.com and we'll get you added.

You're going to like what you see in the catalog.  We have an outstanding set of 45 Angus and 21 SimAngus bulls out of leading sires like Grass Master, Bismarck, Broadside, Grand Torino and Frontman.  The SimAngus offering is no slouch either with an awesome lead-off bull out of donor cow RR Idessa 3651 and Upgrade.  Make sure you pay attention to Lot 50, he is quite possibly the best half-blood bull offered to date here at RR.  The SimAngus sires include Upgrade, Steel Force and the first two Frog bulls every sold at auction at Ratcliff Ranches.  Many of these bulls are out of great donors like the Camilla family, Idessa Family and the Ruth family that Ratcliff Ranch is so well-known for.  In addition, we are introducing a few new donor cows to our auction line-up.  These ladies will be producing bulls for Ratcliff Ranches and our sale for years to come.  The offering includes low-birth weight bulls as well as bulls with high-growth potential.  There is truly something for everyone!

The female offering won't disappoint either!  We're offering nearly 850+ head.  Ratcliff Ranches is consigning 150 Fall 1st calf pairs, many A.I. sired calves by Right answer.  These calves will be selling SAV through IMI Global; 40 Fall pairs (3-Yr.-Old to 8-Yr.-Old); 400 Spring bred heifers, many with A.I. service; 150 3-Year-Old to 4-Year old spring calving cows; 40 Angus Cows (4-Yr.-Old to 7-Yr.-Old - papers optional); And open heifers.
