MISSOURI ANGUS BOARD
PRESIDENT
FROM THE
CREATES NEW POSITION
DAVID HUNTER
Missouri Angus Association
President
O ne of the primary functions of your Missouri Angus Board of Directors
is to constantly look for ways to better serve the membership of the
Missouri Angus Association. As a board, we are always in the process of
looking to the past to evaluate how we are doing in serving the needs of our
members and what we can do in the future to improve the services we offer
to the membership.
Based on the recommendation of our Executive Director, Julie Conover,
the board made the decision to add a Part-Time Sale Manager position.
One of the services that the Missouri Angus Association offers is sales
management and the person that fills this position will be in charge of
that service. It is the hope of our board that Angus breeders will consider
our association when they are making a decision about who will manage

Association member, you are represented by nine regional directors and the
officers of the association. Anytime Missouri has a person serving on the
American Angus Board of Directors, that person also serves on the Missouri
Angus board as a non-voting member.
As president of your association, I am thankful for each of our board
members and their commitment to serve the membership of the Missouri
Angus Association. If you ever have any questions about your association,
I encourage you to give any of us a call. Your Missouri Angus Board of
Directors is here to serve our members. We are excited about the future of

Fall is also action packed with Angus activities. From sales, private

Knowing that the world is continuing to change, we know that some
people may not feel comfortable attending sales in person. If this is the
case, please be sure to contact sale staff or owners to ask questions and
leave bids if desired. Another idea is viewing the consignments ahead of
the event or even the day before when the crowd would be lighter.

SPOTLIGHT
In an effort to share member
stories and successes, our Member
Spotlight section is a collection of
experiences to bring you closer
to our highlighted member. This
month, we highlight Tanner,
Cassi, Sache and Cinch Dowling.
CAT Cattle Co.
CAT Cattle Co. began in 2005 as a 20-acre
purebred Angus farm in Willard, MO following
Tanner and Cassi Dowling graduating from Kan-
sas State University and settling in Southwest
Missouri. Overtime, CAT Cattle Co. has grown
and the farm and family now reside in Fair
Grove, MO, a town the couple sought out for its
excellent school and FFA program to raise their
MISSOURI
family.
Tanner and Cassi Dowling raise purebred
Angus cattle, with an emphasis on producing
10 phenotypically elite animals. Their family com-
petes at local, state and national levels. Before
ANGUS TRAILS
the couple’s kids where show-age, they showed
in open shows and sold show heifers. The goal
of the operation is to produce competitive show
cattle for their family to work on as one.
CAT Cattle Co. runs a registered Angus fall
calving herd with a calf crop consisting of
50% embryo transfer calves and partner with
Dowling Cattle Co., on some Spring calving
recips. Cassi Dowling explains, “AI and embryo
technologies have been an effective way to grow
and diversify our herd.”
Tanner & Cassi Dowling
Tanner and Cassi met at the National West-
ern Stock Show. Both stem from large cow-
calf operations, where showing cattle was a
passion and a way to spend time with each
other. In fact, both of their families have
been exhibiting beef cattle for generations.
Tanner is from Dodge City, KS where
currently three-generations run the family
farm, Dowling Cattle Co. his grandparents,
Dean & Louise Dowling, his parents Kelly
& Roxanne Dowling and most recently
his youngest brother, Laton and his wife
Sophia. “Running a cattle operation has
always been my passion, but my dad
was quick to tell me that I needed to get
a professional degree to support that
passion, for our farm couldn’t supportthree generations at that time,” said
Tanner. Tanner judged livestock very
successfully nationally under Chris
Mullinix at Butler Community Col-
lege, but upon entering Kansas State
University, the Engineering program
prohibited traveling teams due to the
nature of the degree. To bridge the
gap, Tanner managed the show barn
for Laflin Angus Ranch in Olsburg, KS
during his years at K-State. Tanner was
able to work with cattle every day and
continue his love for prepar-
ing cattle for the showring.
Tanner received his degree
in Architectural Engineering
from Kansas State University
and now co-owns an archi-
tectural engineering firm, competing in sports. Additionally, she
