Growing Your Network with special guests Mallory Pappas and Connor Bridwell, Bridwell Angus Ranch

Episode Notes

The guys are happy to have Vince back this week, and together they welcome guests Mallory Pappas and Conner Bridwell of Bridwell Angus Ranch in Montague, CA. Mallory and Conner first talk a little about their addiction to Angus cattle and the audience they serve, then Mallory and Conner have a ton of great insight on the importance of consistency, how they got into the whole AI process, and the value of growing your network. Mallory and Conner share some highlights from their latest trip to Montana, and how they knew certain cows were a fit for their ranch. They touch upon the importance of seeing the cows in person, and a few of the many cool plans that came up in conversation during their 15-hour trip back from Montana.

Quotes:

“The more unique you get in your program goals and objectives, the more you'll be rewarded in the future.”
For us, growing our network has just been more out of necessity, because there’s nobody around us as far as our families that have ever had any involvement in purebred genetics.”
“Any of the information that we can get from someone that has been in the business has been really crucial to us being able to make any sort of decision in our cattle.”
“That's kind of been the theme of everywhere that we go is we're just asking people what's worked for them.”
“There's nothing better than going and seeing them in person.”
“The buyers don't care about the pedigree, they care about a consistent good-looking set of calves.”
