Welcome to the 7th Annual Ranch Ready Hereford Bull Sale. We started this sale six years ago, during some of the industry's toughest times; now we are about to see some of its best.
At Braun Ranch we retain 35 bulls out of 160 purebred cows. We are proud of our bulls; but we're just as proud of our steers. We know the importance of a knife at branding time and we are not afraid to use it. The bulls are fed a high roughage ration of 2/3 hay, 1/3 straw and 8lbs of oats for the calves and 12lbs of oats for the long yearlings. The long yearling bulls run on grass from late May to late October and have a chance to grow out. Our bulls are all tie broke, horse broke and dog broke. Check out our website for more information @ www.braunranch.com
Some background on Gillespie Ranch bulls: We retain 25 bulls out of 120 females. The steers are sold in October. The bull calves are weaned in November and are fed 1% of their body weight of a 17% screening pellet along with free choice hay. Over half the bull pen will be sold as yearlings. We select about 10 bulls to be carried over as long yearlings. They are put on grass June 1st and brought back in October 1st (no supplementing during summer). We then gradually get them up to 15 lbs of screening pellets along with free choice hay. We feel this grows them out, yet does not burn them up. The cows are fed 35 lbs of hay and hay alone. No silage trucks or barley bins on the place. The cows have to survive the same as yours would. We are reserving the right to draw semen on ANY of our bulls sold through the sale at the buyers’ convenience and our expense.
If you are unable to attend the sale, please feel free to contact any of the contributors or Donnie Peacock. We would be happy to help you select a bull and have a representative bid on your behalf.
We invite you to join us on March 24, to take in the strong offering of bulls. Thanks to everyone who has expressed interest in previous sales as well as the 2011 edition.
Hope to see you at the sale! Craig Braun & Donnie Gillespie

Gil 50W: Just a May bull, but has been a favorite since birth. Grandpas’ pick of the bulls(got to be good then). Yellow, yellow with lots of good curly hair. Lots of middle. muscle and eye-appeal. I find him hard to fault. Good feet and legs and covers lots of ground. You don’t find bulls like this guy very often. Dam is an excellent uddered, footed Superman cow and traces to our Alma cow family. Dam of our feature yearling bull in 2009 selling to Fleming Ranch. 9N consistently produced soggy bulls and excellent uddered females. 50W is a real rancher type bull.

Don 15W: One of the best we have raised!! Lots of hair, excellent feet, tons of middle, good disposition and a big square hip and butt. 15W walks on all corners and stands with width. Natural muscle that will not disappear after breeding season. The 24P females are outstanding and visitors comment on their udders. The dam of 15W is one of our best. Excellent udder, tons of guts and a cow that does not miss. Dam to $12,000 19S bull at Glass Land and Cattle. 19S may be the best Superman son yet. Grandmother was here until she was 12 and great grandmother till she was 17. This pedigree is loaded with top cows. A full brother to 15W is in the yearling pen. Retaining in herd semen interest.

Dam is a big soggy, excellent uddered Superman cow. We flushed the Grandmother and are now using a Superman son of hers.

Gil 44W: Again, a bull with lots of length, middle and excellent thickness. Great feet under this guy. Dam is a perfect uddered Superman granddaughter. I truly don’t think you can put a better udder on a cow. Dam is not a big cow, but has one of our best every year. Top heifer this year. Lots of performance and low birth weight. As they would say “ a real curve bender”.

23 Don 16W: A bull with lots of class and eye-appeal. Hard to fault 16W. He has excellent length, thickness, middle, perfect feet and lots of pigment. Full brother sold to Greg Barber last year. Dam to 16W is an 11L daughter(dam to Don 15W) and is one of our best. The Superman females do not miss and have developed an awesome cow herd for us. The 631S bull has done more that we could imagine. Females look great and calves are among our best every year. He added the length we needed. His dam is one of Nels Nixdorfs best cows. 16W will correct feet and udders.

Gil 14X: A feature calf. A bull full of performance!! This calf will be a herd bull. Favorite among all visitors this summer. 14X is long spined, eye-appealing, thick butted, and has a top Superman cow to back him. She is one of our best and all daughters have been retained. Visitors told me she is what a Hereford cow should look like. Deep ribbed, good udder and feet and yellow. The kind of cow that holds condition while nursing a calf and wont hump up in -40 weather. I would take a whole herd like her. 14X was the heaviest calf weaned here this year. The 631S cattle have turned out great for us and all that bought them. 14X is worth a look.

Don 9X: A calf with a great uddered and moderated framed mom. Lots of curly yellow hair and mature out at 1400 lbs. Sire to 9X is an embryo son we raised and sold half interest to Ian Glass. He has matured into a great herd sire for us. Can’t wait to get his females in production. 9X has bit more birth weight but is long bodied and clean shouldered. Longer calves will have a bit more birth weight, but do not create calving issues. He would add that length and top that many straight black calves need. Thus pushing weaning weights up by 50 lbs. His registration is applied for as we lost sires DNA.

Dam is a full sister to dam of GIL 13X and her Granddam in mom to GIL 14X. How is that for consistency?? Shows some cow power!! The dam to 18X has as good as udder as we have on the place. She is bred this year to our $25,000 CL 929 bull and we are hoping for a herd sire to retain for ourselves out of her. Kind of cow that I want to build a herd around. This is the first calf crop to sell out of our 3U Superman son. His dam is a matron cow that we have flushed and will continue to do so. Tons of maternal power behind this calf. This calf will build a cow herd. We lost the DNA on Sire 3U so registration is applied for.
