Inspired by a legacy of practical, market-changing cattle producers, Elizabeth and Dustin Perkins believe matings made with high-dollar bulls are only as good as the foundation set by the cows.

“Cows that stay and steers that pay” is the mantra of the R.A. Brown Ranch, Throckmorton, Texas.

“Keep the nutrition level good enough to express their differences, but not high enough to mask their differences, then use the ones that sort to the top. The cattle that will make money for our customers will be the ones that get closest to ‘doing everything right,’” says Ben Eggers of Missouri-based Sydenstricker Genetics.
/angus-media/angus-beef-bulletin/abb-articles/2025/04/female-foundations/webo-angus
The Angus cows of WEBO Angus, Lusk, Wyo., have to be sound, maternal and docile. “Problem cattle will weed themselves out in Wyoming,” says Buttons York, the B in WEBO. She and her late husband, Waldon, established WEBO 19 years ago with her daughters Elly Wurdeman and Odessa Eddy.
/angus-media/angus-beef-bulletin/abb-articles/2025/04/female-foundations/ingram-angus

/angus-media/angus-beef-bulletin/abb-articles/2025/04/female-foundations/oak-hollow-angus

/angus-media/angus-beef-bulletin/abb-articles/2025/04/female-foundations/twg-ranch
Going from 0 to more than 800 cows in three years is no small feat, and the TWG herd is still growing. Growing that fast with a reputable cow herd foundation and an employee roster all younger than 45 takes a combination of hard work, the right relationships and a dash of luck.
/angus-media/angus-beef-bulletin/abb-articles/2025/04/female-foundations/mogck-sons
For the past 40 years, registered Angus have found their home in the Olivet, S.D., pastures of Mogck & Sons. Charles and LeAndra; their sons, Chase and Ty; their daughter, Christy Winkler, and her husband, Logan, raise Angus cattle with the intent of blending maternal and carcass.
