HOSTS: Miranda Reiman and Mark McCully
GUESTS: Tyler and Andy Musgrave
Musgrave Angus wants to be known for balanced, moderate cattle that thrive in different environments. On this episode brothers Tyler and Andy Musgrave share their philosophy on using their own sires vs. sourcing outside genetics, how they’ve created outliers while also remaining consistent, and the importance of maintaining the traditional Angus “look.” From Bando 1961 to LD Capitalist, they tell the stories of some of their most well-known sires and give their outlook for the future challenge in the Angus breed.
Brothers Tyler and Andy Musgrave are the second generation to raise Angus cattle on their western Illinois farm. Since 1961 Musgrave Angus has been breeding and selecting cattle that work in the fescue grass environment and perform under the stress of a humid climate. Feet, fleshing ability, structure and phenotype set the base for their program. Their parents, Melvin and Cathy Musgrave, started the operation. Today Tyler and his wife, Sarah, and their four sons; and Andy, his wife, Beth, and their three sons each take on their own roles.
SPONSOR: Ingram Angus
