2025 Bulls
Our bulls are developed from 0ver 50 years of Larson Angus genetics. Sires are True North, Gibson, Comstock, and a few of our home raised bulls from Larson Angus. Larson Angus and our partners Marc & Drew Hinners, and Greg & David Hermstad are very excited to watch these bulls develop and aim to make bulls that will make you good cows.
2025 Heifers
Our heifers are special as they are also a compilation of over 50 years of select breeding. We strive to produce hard working cows that will be productive for many years. They are very hard for us to part with as we in many cases know the long line of productivity in their genetics. We will have 8 on the sale this coming year. Still sorting them out as to which will be on the sale in March 2026.
We value our partnerships.
Larson Angus has partnered with Marc Hinners and Tom Young for many years. They had purchased bulls and cows from us in years past and this partnership has allowed us to provide a larger group of quality animals. David & Greg Hermstad have joined our group a few years ago as they have also purchased quality animals from Jim's herd over the past years. Our close connection has allowed us to provide customers a lower risk of bringing disease into their herds.
What You Want
We in the cattle breeding business are entering an exciting phase. We have the tools with sire summaries, EPDS, AI, Ultrasound, etc to dramatically change our cattle herds. We at Larson Angus are conscious of the need to produce what the consumer wants but we don't chase carcass traits to the extent that we sacrifice the production traits that are vital to any commercial cattle person.
What We Do
We strive to produce bulls that will sire moderate birth weight cattle that grow. Those bulls have to also sire heifers that will grow into wide, deep bodied cows that can go into a northern Iowa cornfield in the middle of winter and work. We are firmly convinced that the cow of the future will be a cow that does not require a lot of extra management.
How we do it
We put a lot of emphasis on the dams of any potential AI or natural service sire. Our cows must have good production records, calve on time, and have good functional type traits especially a good udder and docility. Jim does not use creep feed with his animals as we want to know that if we get a good calf it is not because the calf lived in the creep feeder.
