Now here's Galen Frenzen from Frenzen Angus and Polled Herefords.

"Most of the guys that sell yearling bulls, they start calving right after Christmas. We don't start calving till the middle of February and when we tested our bulls at our sale, I always get nervous with the yearling bulls, a lot of them weren't even a year old yet. But the vet commented that he said the nuts are right there and they're firm. And he said, I'm not grabbing hold of a scrotum full of, well he didn't say scrotum, he said, a bag full of fat. We don't get them fat."

"The genetics are the same. When that calf is born, his genetics are set. And what you do from there is not going to change them. I don't care how you fat you get them or how hard you promote them or what. Those genetics aren't going to change. And so we don't have the weights that a lot of them do. And I've been watching a lot of videos and there's a lot of fat cattle out there.

"It was a Sunday afternoon, a guy called and he said, I don't need any more bulls. But he said, I want to come to your sale. And he said, just look at your bulls and he said, I'm the most guilty one there is. He said, 'I say, I'm not going to buy a fat bull. But that's what we buy because they look better. And then we get upset because they go to hell come summer.' We got repeat customers that say the bowl, he looks about the same in July as they bought them. In areas where there's a hell of a lot of highly promoted, high powered bulls, he says, well, I'm tired of buying fat bulls. It's a totally different program. That's it in nutshell. I'm a redneck. I'm stubborn. I'm German.

That was 82 year old, Galen Frenzen, and that's going to do it for today's Cattleman's Corner.

Gill Red Angus from Timberlake, South Dakota has a sale coming up on Wednesday. Here's Bryan Gill with more.

The bulls there, I said are aged advantage bulls. There's some two-year-old bulls in there, and there's some fall bulls in there. Our program specializes in aged cattle. We like to sell them bulls a little bit older, instead of pushing them to grow them. So we like to grow them on grass a while and get them their frame mother nature's way. So they really should hold up well for the next guy. One thing that we do is we pride ourselves in the customer service, and along with delivering the bulls and standing behind our products, which we do, we also help our customers market their calves. And when our customers take their cattle to the sale barn and time to sell them or sell them off the farm, however they decide to market them, if they let us know, we will be there one way or another and try to round up some bids for them. We purchased several thousand calves last fall and over the winter from our customers, either on order or for ourselves. We'll take them cattle to ones we buy for ourselves and we'll background them and give them to 900 to 1,000 pounds and we'll sell them in the winter. We're peddling cattle to now that we bought in October and November, and then we're also going to run almost a thousand steers on grass that we'll sell in August, September and October that we purchased from our customers. And we also market several hundred head of replacement heifers that we purchased from customers. So we see the cattle from weaning until they grow up. We know which genetics are working and which genetics aren't working and know a little bit more about the cattle that our bulls produce.
