Gumbowie, Willalooka, SA

Hazeldean Angus continues it's commitment to beef producers in South Australia and western Victoria with a joint venture with Guy and Sarah Cunningham.

In 2008 a herd of 200 Hazeldean females selected by Guy and Jim was despatched to their property Gumbowie at Willalooka in order to breed the sale bulls and future breeders for South Australia. The Hazeldean SA sale is now held and operated by the Cunninghams at Gumbowie in mid-February.

"The cows now at Gumbowie are a great advertisement for the Hazeldean females. Jim and I selected these cows from the heart of the Hazeldean females at Cooma. Done over three days it was a great reminder of the depth of the herd, with literally hundreds to choose from for each year group of around forty five to bring back to South Australia. This enables us to offer the best young bulls to our southern clients plus surplus females in the coming years."


Existing and new clients will now have the opportunity to inspect the dams of sale bulls. Genetic progress will not be compromised as the herd will remain fully integrated with the full genetic pool available at Hazeldean.

"Practically the local element is just as important, allowing us to offer efficient back up service, as time passes I will be able to get a better understanding of each client's requirements."  Guy Cunningham
