Pinnacle Brahmans Online Sale - 2023
Location
Dear Brahman Enthusiasts:I.M.M. Inc.
I want to thank you for your interest in this offering. It is an honor to be able to work with Pinnacle Brahmans on this elite sale. Pinnacle Brahmans might be newer to the Brahman breed but the ownership of Bruce Van Meter, John Howard, and Jay Anderson are lifelong cattlemen. This program was started several years ago with the purchase of females from La Muneca Cattle Company, La Negra Cattle Co., and Circle F Farms. These foundation females were mated to some of the industry’s top sires to produce offspring that have been shown successfully and sold in the breed’s most elite sales over the past two years. If you are looking to add some of the most proven horned & polled Brahman genetics to your herd, give this offering serious consideration.
As the sale day approaches, we hope that you will study the information on the sale site. If you have any questions or need additional information, please give Bruce Van Meter a call at 770-547-1433 or myself at 713-202-1747 and we will be glad to assist you.
Appreciatively,
Chris Shivers
Sale Manager
