THE 2023 Alpine Angus Bull Sale will be held on Wednesday March 15 at the Alpine Sales Complex, Rosewhite at 1pm presenting 115 registered HBR and APR Angus Bulls.
The Alpine Angus genetic program aims to produce true–to–type Angus cattle with moderate birth and explosive growth.
The Alpine cow herd is run under true, low maintenance commercial conditions using a combination of leading US performance sires, Australian AI sires and carefully selected home–bred backup bulls.
Featured in 2023 Alpine Autumn Bull Sale lineup are sons of Baldridge Beast Mode and Heiken Broadview – both US AI sires that combine low birth weights with high growth potential.
Beast Mode sons are wide based and thick with plenty of early growth and have topped multiple sales all over across Australia.

His sons have met strong demand at Alpine Angus's previous sales and are regularly amongst the top sale highlights.
Broadview, a new sire, will have sons coming through the Alpine Bull Sales for the next couple of years.
Producing long–spined cattle with low birth weight and explosive growth, his progeny will be in high demand.
Two local AI sires, Rennylea N542 and Murdeduke Quarterback, have also been used to inject higher carcase potential into the Alpine cattle without sacrificing capacity and performance.
Alpine Manager Chris Oswin said, "Rennylea N542 is an amazing sire that has produced sale toppers after being used in a handful of herds.
"This includes our $90,000 sale topper last Autumn, Alpine Real Deal R163, now a leading ABS AI sire.
"Another son Alpine Ronaldo R232 is an AI sire for ST Genetics.
"Real Deal's progeny are deep and easy fleshed.
"Quarterback is a high IMF sire with body and substance and stands on good feet and legs.
"He is from a powerful maternal line and produces long, stout bodied cattle with marbling.
"Alpine Muzza and Karoo Main Event also have a run of true–to–type Angus sons throughout the sale with excellent bodies.
"Both are incredibly sound bulls and excel at producing fault–free cattle that form the backbone of the Alpine herd.
"Muzza is one of the many sons of Coonamble Elevator that Alpine have used and this sireline has had a lasting impact on the Alpine herd producing strong, quiet cattle with real growth and quality.
"Main Event was the top priced bull from the Karoo sale a few years ago and is one of the best bulls we have used for improving foot quality and claw shape.
"His progeny are long and easy calving and have proven very popular.
"Highlights of his progeny sales include our $75,000 Spring 2021 sale topper Alpine Rip Wheeler R144.
"Rip Wheeler is one of two Main Event sons from Alpine whose semen is marketed by Genetics Australia."
Alpine Principal Jim Delany said that "Those wishing to inspect the bulls pre sale can do so by appointment with Chris Oswin 0427 562 254."
