New Stud Sire Joins Coffin Creek Battery
We purchased Revenue M4 for $35,000 at the 2017 Booragul Angus Bull Sale in partnership with Knowla Livestock and Palgrove. A stand out young sire in our eyes, he will go to work in July 2017 in our Autumn calving herd. Revenue brings super length, balance and a fantastic set of carcase numbers.

Homegrown bulls making their mark
A particular highlight of the 2016 drop calves are the progeny of Coffin Creek Joker J202. They display excellent weight for age and a quiet disposition as well as a strong resemblance to their maternal grand dam Coffin Creek Abigail C22. Both Joker J202 and Abigail C22 are featured on this website.

A pleasing result for Jamie & Sarah Inglis of "Havilah East" was also enjoyed by Coffin Creek Angus at the 19th Annual Mudgee Angus Breeder's Sale on Friday 22nd of April. A pen of rising two year old PTIC heifers offered by the Inglis' were awarded Champion Pen of the sale and went on to top their category at $1760. The heifers were Coffin Creek blood, joined to Coffin Creek bulls. Great to see our cattle take out the award in a large yarding of quality Angus cattle.

High Demand For Coffin Creek Heifers
Coffin Creek heifers met a strong market when offered on Auctions Plus on the 12th of February 2016. The line of 30 Angus heifers, which were pregnancy tested in-calf to low birthweight Coffin Creek bulls, started at a reserve price of $1700 and received a steady stream of bidding before selling for $2110.00 per head. We are thrilled with this sale result. It goes to show there is a premium for high quality genetics.

Paddock to Palate success
We are thrilled with the performance of our team of 6 steers in the RNA Paddock to Palate Steer Competition presented at the EKKA in Brisbane on the 7th of August. In the 70 Day Trade Division our team performed extremely well picking up a number of prizes. Our steers proved that pure-bred Angus really can compete against all other breeds.
Our team of Coffin Creek steers were awarded:
- Second Overall
- Champion Carcass
- Champion Pen of 6 Carcasses
We are over-the-moon with these results. It strengthens the belief in our breeding program and reinforces the carcass merit of our cattle. The bulls who sired these steers, in particular Coffin Creek Deliver D71, are still in use in our herd and their sons will feature highly in our future bull sales.
