Why Lyssy Beefmasters

Feed Efficiency Data

Lyssy has recorded feed efficiency data the longest of competing Beefmaster genetics: every bull is backed by EPDs and feed conversion data.

Measured, Verified, Predictable

Whole Herd Reporting, carcass ultrasounds on all yearling bulls and heifers, and DNA verification of every calf. "You cannot manage what is not measured."

Breed-Leading Donors & Sires

Home of VFF Enforcer, Lyssy's Custom Made, Maverick and donors like Lyssy Karma and Boss Lady, whose genetics anchor programs across the breed.

Our Story

In 1972, Henry Lyssy started Lyssy Beefmasters in Stockdale, Texas. Henry's passion for ranching was passed on through his family, creating a lifestyle for his children and grandchildren. The herd passed to Henry's sons, Lawrence and George, and is now managed by his grandson, Lauren.

Our program, based on multi-trait selection, creates proven outcrosses exhibiting performance and predictability. We participate in Whole Herd Reporting, ultrasound all yearling heifers and bulls and DNA verify every calf, combining effective EPDs with predictability and phenotype.

Our goal is to sell cattle with proven performance to both seedstock and commercial cattlemen. We continually seek out new ways to measure and test our genetics against the industry, reaching well beyond the Beefmaster breed.
