I have a long list of people that I need to thank for igniting my passion of added value cattle. My first experience was having the fortune of buying 18 virgin heifers from Bob & Cathy Dwyer in 1991 followed up by the purchase of 23 more in 1992. This venture was very short-lived as BCD decided to disperse in Congerville, IL at Les Reels facility in 1993. What a baptism I received in the Show Steer business by some great people. Not only was my venture extremely profitable but we also had the great fortune of raising the most noted display bull at the National Western Stock Show in 1993. The bull FRANCHISE (Total Play son)was purchased by none other than the Bobby May.

Fast forward through my college years at Illinois, BS ‘93 and Western Illinois, MS ‘95 to October of 1997 when I purchased a set of virgin heifers from David Ray, Mark Ray and Jim Bloomberg of Berwick, Illinois. And as luck would have it, one of those females RF GOLDDIGGER (Meyer 734 x Draft Pick) mated very well to the club calf GOAT Who Made Who and raised a bull born in 2000 later named CHEAP TRICK who was purchased and displayed in Denver by the team of Brad Hook, Todd Caldwell and Mark Ray!

While the recognition of raising such an elite animal was significant to my start. It was another genetic success in 2000 that really started the unique bloodlines at Huston Cattle Co. I had the opportunity to start AI breeding some of the most unique Shorthorn cross cows in the entire country. Little did anyone know back then of the TH PHA & DS. As luck would have it we raised a non affected Double Vision red roan steer exhibited by Stetson Copus and was slapped Champion Shorthorn in 2002 at the Fort Worth Stock Show. In that flush was also an individual now known as BATES, whose mother G40 was born in 1980, yes that made her 20 years old. Ironically, BATES, was later found a TH DS & PHA CARRIER. So a little club calf history these recessive genes have been creeping around for many, many years.

With all this said, my wife Tina, really didn’t believe me when I said I was dispersing my genetics this spring. I have some very special people I confide with (one being Timmy Heckman, thanks man) at times and this idea was talked about a fair amount over the summer months and fast forward here we are. As many of my closer peers know, my decisions or ideas are far from conventional. We have had very successful bred heifer sales from 2003-2012. Some very significant on-line sales starting with BW,CW then SC and now with STEERBIDDER. We were some of the first to try and market our frozen genetics which then led to the idea of selling pregnant recips with our genetics. That idea was a little far fetched but I saw no better way to “spread” our genetics by an affordable means to customers literally all across the states. The one story that will be told for years to come will be the purchase made by my football buddy Adam Pryor. Adam bought 3 Whitey x IGWT pregnancies for a total of $11,000. During his September pasture sale, he sold them for $33k, $21K and $16K. Fast forward to January 2024, Lot 1 was emotionally slapped the Grand Champion Steer at the NWSS & RODEO for a young man from Ree Heights, SD! Congrats Croix Reimann.... It is why we do it RIGHT????

So, here we are! Why am I selling out?? very simple, I am tired, I need a little break. Am I done?? no, temporarily, yes! The cattle are good, they are bred right, they are genetically tested, they are PROVEN but most importantly they sell well and have done a little winning the past 20 years. I’m only 52 years old but want this to be a business that my son Nick or even my daughter Carmyn (no offense Ryley, but the flys will always be around the cattle) want to come home to! We are a very sports driven family and this fall/winter will be a lot of fun watching Nick, Carmyn and joining Ryley to go watch Johnny. There will be many more write ups about the cattle we are selling as we get closer to sale day and I will share more success stories as well. MOST IMPORTANTLY, REACH OUT! Call Chris, Timmy, Ty, Dustin, Wade or Joe. These guys know the stock. Feel free to contact us here at the farm in Roseville to come look!

SINCERELY

The Huston Family
