Located 18 miles south
of Livingston, MT, in the heart of the Paradise Valley of south
central Montana, the U/U Ranch consists of irrigated hay meadows,
irrigated pasture, rolling open foothill pasture along with open
timbered mountain pasture. The ranch runs 200 mother cows, 130 of
which are purebred seedstock. The ranch is owned and operated by
Steve and Shelley Newberry and managed by Jim and Cathy Frazier.
T-Bar Ranch
Red Angus and Cross F Red Angus are closely affiliated with Strawberry
Ridge Red Angus and the U/U. T-Bar Ranch is owned by Art and
Cathy Burns and managed by Jim Frazier. Cross F Red Angus
is owned and managed by Jim and Cathy Frazier. The T-Bar and
Cross F herds are run in an integrated manner with Strawberry Ridge
Red Angus. We use the same sires and clean up bulls, graze
the same pastures, share the same philosophy and we ratio the herds
together.
We strive
to raise red angus seedstock cattle with moderate birth weight,
high growth and maternals, feed efficiency, calm dispositions, and
good feet and legs. Our top main herd sires, Chapparral 986 and
Wide Spread, are doing the work we hoped for when we purchased them.
Chapparral has excelled in growthy calves that are phenotypically
correct, and he is proving to be his sire Heaven's Sake's replacement.
Wide Spread produces thick made calves with high maternal traits.
Both produce moderate birth weight. We have heifers in production
from both bulls.
With the
growth in numbers of our purebred herd, we added SRR Top Ridge to
our herd battery. Additionally, Strawberry Ridge Red Angus
and T-Bar Ranch Red Angus purchased a significant interest in possibly
the most complete bull in the breed, LCC Major League. We
are excited to see first-hand what impact he will have on the breed,
with calves on the ground in our program in the spring of 2004.
Strawberry
Ridge Red Angus is the fulfillment of a lifelong goal to be surrounded
by the great outdoors, people with the highest integrity and character,
and our livestock. The opportunity to be part of the Red Angus breed
with its history of bringing innovative marketing and progressive
science to the improvement of the breed and industry is a privilege.
We look forward to making our contribution to the Red Angus breed
and want to thank everyone in the breed that has been so helpful
and supportive as we have started our operation.
We sell cattle to Montana, Wyoming, North and
South Dakota, Idaho and Canada. Come see us at the shows in Montana,
Reno and Denver this year. We will ship semen worldwide.
