Tyler Musgrave
Owner
Since 1961, Musgrave Angus has been breeding and selecting cattle that work in the "fescue" grass environment; perform and breed under the stress of a humid climate. We believe that good cattle start from the ground up and have always been critical on fleshing ability, structure and phenotype. Today you can find our genetics working around the world in both purebred and commercial sectors of the industry. As we face swings in the cattle industry our focus remains the same in producing a superior product that can improve our customers' bottom line.
