75 Years in the Hereford Business
TEGTMEIER POLLED HEREFORDS
Revved up about the 2025 Offering!
LET’S GO RACING…
We’ve been building up speed for 75 years in the Hereford business for such a time as this, our 65th Consecutive Annual Sale. Total Performance is not just for race cars. Total Performance is the chassis upon which we’ve built our program since the beginning. Tegtmeier genetics are designed with balance in mind. Performance testing and carcass data collection for three decades guarantee you get the total package in calving ease, growth, maternal, and carcass traits. We’ve included docility, udder quality, soundness, and fleshing ability too — everything you need for trouble-free profitability and a fast track to superior genetics.
BOOGITY! BOOGITY! BOOGITY!
About that race car with Tegtmeier Polled Herefords front and center. This past year, we sponsored driver Shawn Hein in his sport mod. While a Hereford breeder may not be the typical kind of sponsor one would find painted on a race car, we think it’s rather fitting.
We have cow families supercharged with femininity, fertility, and longevity, so they won’t spin out early! These Tegtmeier females sport a ton of COWpower under the hood to inject plenty of milk, muscle, and meat. As for the Tegtmeier bulls, we’ve souped up the genetics with built-in moderate birth weights known to accelerate growth from the day they drop till they cross the finish line.

Excellence in Polled Genetics
For 64 consecutive years, the Tegtmeier family has offered the best of their Polled Herefords in an Annual Production Sale! Since we conducted two sales per year for a while, that adds up to 74 sales with 70-plus years in the Hereford business.
Even after all this time, our goals have remained consistent: To breed cattle with moderate birthweights, that excel in growth and performance and to be highly maternal, have high fertility, to have strong carcass merit and eye-appeal along with sound feet and legs. We call that TOTAL PERFORMANCE here at Tegtmeier Polled Herefords!
