Brenda Beeson - Western Cattle Source

Welcome to the Cattleman's Corner. I'm Brian Hale sitting in for the late Howard Hale as we continue his legacy of speaking with cattlemen and women from around the globe. On today's Cattleman's Corner we have Brenda Beeson from Western Cattle Source in Crawford, Nebraska.

"My mom and dad they raised commercial cattle growing up and then I started raising cementol and cementing cattle. A long time ago I could put it that way. We started buying some registered cows when I was in high school and stuff and I always say that my deal the cementol cementing started out as a 4-H project that got carried away."

That's turned out to be some great crosses. 

"Yeah we started using them there in the commercial world on our cows and then I started with the buy-in on some registered cows. I just kind of intrigued by it. Just kept growing it and then met my husband at Laramie, University of Wyoming and then we got married and continued to keep raising Simmental, and we run a handful of registered quarter horses. This is the first year we're going to have horses on the sale. We got four-head of horses on the sale along with the bulls. We got 79 bulls and 17 bred heifers on there and we're selling choice on the Reserve Champion Pen of 3 of bred heifers that we had in Denver at the National Western Stock show this year. "
