“Take time to do it right” is what I heard Dad say as I left the shop. I threw what I thought would be needed into the ’48 jeep. My job was to fix a hole in the north pasture fence. Man, was I excited since this was my first time driving the jeep by myself. Come to think about it, it was also first time fixing fence alone. You see I was just 9 or 10 years old (it gets younger every time I share this story). The excitement left quickly when I saw how much fence needed to be fixed. I knew there wasn’t going to be any shortcuts to this job. Hours later, as I was driving back to the yard (taking the long way back, of course) I started to wonder if what Dad had said was more than just a suggestion. Welcome to our 52 nd Annual “Focus on Performance Sale.” The sale offering is a direct result of taking the time to do it right for 99 years. Being recognized as a big-time performance herd is really only half of our story. True we did start weighing calves at specific times, like birth, weaning, and yearling, 69 years ago. It didn’t take us long to see that we had to measure these cattle with a scale to plot our progress. Prior to that beginning, we were insistent on breeding cattle that were good-sized, made right, looked good, and of the highest quality. Blending both the numbers with our strict visual demands has placed this herd in “one of a kind” position. Both Scott and Tyler are called upon to judge cattle shows literally from border to border and coast to coast. Their recognized expertise for evaluating cattle is used every day around this cow herd! You can rest assured that all have been performance tested, have current EPDs, genomic tested, and met the most stringent visual appraisal. Just a side bar note, I have been known “back in the day” to judge some as well!! There is one comment about our bulls and females that has really stuck with me all these years. It came from a customer of several years. He leaned up against the bull bunk and said, “Do you realize that your bulls have that special look about them?” I replied, “ I sure do. It’s called the Bush Angus look.” It’s what you get when you, Take the time to do it right . We are sure this sale offering will impress you for both the great numbers and quality. All the bulls and heifers are cataloged by sire groups. Yearling information will be available about mid-February and hopefully videos will be done as well. This sale book should be online the first of February. Go to bushangus.com or DVAuction, or angusmedia.org. The DVAuction instructions are on the inside back cover. As always call and we will be more than eager to talk just about anything, especially the sale offering! As it has been for the past 52 years, all the calves have been halter broke and can be delivered to your barn door. Join us for a complimentary Angus beef dinner at 11:00.
