Our desire to raise Angus cattle goes back to our youth when we showed 4-H steers and heifers. TNT Angus was established in 1987 when we purchased21 heifers form James Murray, Buffalo Center, IA. In 1993 TNT Angus purchased SVF Oscar 9-1-1 form Sunny Valley Farms, Yorkville, Illinois. 9-1-1 has sired many good producing daughters and sons that add muscle and growth. We are currently using his grandson, TNT Direct Deposit 19 sired by Bubs Direct Deposit. TNT Direct Deposit 19 calves are phenotypic ally correct with growth and muscle. KFF Rito Traveler 434H (Klipper) was purchased in 1998, from Glen Klippenstein, Maysville, Missouri. "Klipper" offspring come early and grow fast. His heifers are just starting in production and the calves look good. The 2001 Iowa Bull Test included a "Klipper" son that came off test weighing 1675 pounds with a 79 lb birth weight. A "Klipper" son at the 2002 Iowa Bull test was the 5th placing index bull gaining over 5 lbs. per day with a birth weight of 75 lbs. and off test weight of 1520 lbs. Take a look at some of our 2001 -
