This July, we invested in two registered angus bulls; a long-yearling and a two-year old both raised and developed by the great Three Trees Ranch of Senoia, Ga. owned by Stan Thomas. These photos don't do the young studs justice. Take my word for it; they are handsome boys. We will use these bulls to "clean-up" after our artificial insemination program for the top-end of our stocker-heifer purchases. The above photos capture some of the flavor of my trip to the Woodbury, Ga. facility on top of a huge hill that has the most panoramic view. That is a renovated old dairy barn where Three Trees has an annual bull sale where they move @300 bulls , all products of their extremely successful embryo transfer program. Ranch manager Rob Singleton was nice enough to deliver the guys to me; that is Rob in the photo above. Rob is also a competitive non-pro cutter and proud owner of an excellent son of Docs Hickory named Hickorys Advantage. He still shows the stallion and we are happy to own a son of this fine stud that we call Artemis who is a yearling and a good-looking young gelding out of our good mare Missy.
