Frontier Bonsmaras was founded in 2006 after the closure of the East Cape Club sale. Five like-minded breeders from tick infested areas of the Eastern Cape combined to provide bulls to this region from one central point. Paul Hobson was instrumental in setting up the sale venue in Grahamstown, and Hobson and Co conduct the sale each year. Successful sales have been held averaging between R19000 and R29000 for bulls.

In Glynn Handley and Peter Knott Frontier Bonsmaras boast two of the oldest breeders in the country. Their knowledge of the breed has been invaluable to the younger members of the group.

Frontier Bonsmaras are committed to breeding superior adapted animals for the commercial and stud breeder. We all practice AI and keep abreast of and make use of the best available genetics to continuously improve our herds. The combined number of females exceeds 600 and provides breeders with wide choice of genetics on one yearly sale.

Frontier bulls and females can be found locally, in the Karoo, the extreme cold of the North Eastern Cape sourveld, as far a field as the Free State and the stifling heat of the Lowveld. They have adapted well and left an affordable footprint throughout our country.
