We are excited to host our annual production sale again. Please accept this as your personal invitation to join us on February 7th. First off, we would like to thank everyone who has bought cattle or showed interest in our genetics. We truly appreciate your support in what we do. These last couple of years have sure been good to us as cattle producers. Lately, I have been reading a lot of reports, and it seems like the cattle business is going to be strong for quite some time. This year we were honored by the Illinois Beef Association as the Seedstock Producer of the Year. We would like to thank the IBA and all who were involved in this decision. We truly appreciate receiving the award and all the hard work IBA does in representing this industry at the Illinois State Capital. On a feedback note, we would like to congratulate Wilson & Good from Missouri. They have done a wonderful job in presenting HB Expectation 3012 at several national events, where he was named Grand Champion Bull at the National Western Angus Futurity and Grand Champion at Atlantic National ROV show. With these accomplishments he was then honored as Reserve ROV Show Bull of the Year by the American Angus Association. We are truly proud of all they have done. This year’s bull offering is very strong and has few new sire groups in it. We believe they represent themselves very well and what we look for. Also, we have a large group of Expectations again. We believe these cattle are some of the best and most consistent genetics we have ever offered. New this year, in the bred heifer division, we put their actual birth weight, adj. WW and adj. YW next to their photos. We wanted you to know how the cattle perform and what they can do for you as a breeder. These breds are sired by bulls we have bought or raised. We feel very strongly about this group, and you need to come and spend some time with them. Lastly, we would like to thank everyone for taking the time to look over the catalog and appreciate all the phone calls. If you would like to stop by and look, we would be more than pleased to show you around. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to give us a call. We hope to see you on Saturday, February 7, 2026, at 1:00 p.m.
