The
Gill Ranch began in the late 60’s
when Larry & Janet moved home after Larry got out of the army. In
1979, we bought our first registered Red Angus cattle from the Enid School
dispersion. Our foundation herd consisted of mainly Chief bred females,
which has given us the great maternal herd we have today.
From the beginning, our main goal has been to raise a maternal and performance
cowherd. We feel that our herd has as much or more performance than any
other herd no matter what the breed. We strive to have big-butted bulls
and easy keeping cows. The mature weight of the cows in our herd is around
1350 lbs. -- not too big and not too small. We feel that you need to run
what your environment allows you to run, and our cowherd fits right in
that puzzle.
Our main priority the last 25 years has been to produce the best performance
bulls we can so our commercial customers are profitable. We do everything
possible to make sure our customers get what their calves are worth when
they sell them. This last fall we nearly wore out our vehicles going to
our customers’ sales and bidding on every Gill sired offspring we
could find.
We market our bulls through our annual spring bull sale and our females
privately.
Give
us a call or stop in sometime. There is only one thing that we enjoy more
than raising Red Angus, and that is visiting with our friends and customers.
