When Henry had the intuition to build a Red Angus herd, he wanted the best. So he went out and got it. He acquired Panhandle Penny 006 (Atlas’s mother) and Panhandle 219 and began flushing them. To complement the herd, Red Tassel Chivalory 1G was added to the bull battery from the Straka herd dispersal sale. Chivalory’s daughters have helped to grow the herd up to 75 cows, where we are today. At Peterson’s Red Angus dispersion, a group of the top-numbered heifers was purchased to breed to 1G. They have made their mark in the maternal line-up at the West Fork.
