Welcome to our 21st annual production sale. What an exciting time to be in the cattle business. With record-high prices for all classes of cattle, there’s never been a better time to upgrade your herd bull battery or invest in new females. We can help with that!When you look through the offering this year, you’ll notice a diverse set of sire groups. Whether you need to improve performance, add some frame or produce superior replacement females, we are confident you will find a bull in our offering to get that done. We have been doing embryo transfer to propagate our best cow families for over 20 years. You don’t have to dig very deep to find top donors in the pedigrees we offer. This presents an opportunity to buy a direct daughter from our top cows, or you can use full brothers to increase consistency in your calves. This is our sixth fall sale. We have received positive feedback about our extra-aged bulls that are developed slowly. The age advantage allows each bull to service more cows and thrive throughout the breeding season. This set of bulls has never been offered for sale. We cull hard for structural and disposition issues to ensure you get our absolute best genetics. The bulls spent the summer on native pasture without supplement. We brought them home and started working with them the first week of September. The bulls have passed a breeding soundness exam, and we are offering the same policy regarding breeding guarantee. Look at the sale terms and conditions page to familiarize yourself with these terms. The heifers in this sale spent the summer on pasture with no supplement. We are pleased with how they have come along, and they will be in excellent shape going into winter. We pride ourselves in the quality of our cowherd, and we expect these heifers to reflect that. The heifers were ultra- sounded for calving dates in September and then were palpated closer to the sale to confirm pregnancy. We will continue to market our customers’ bred heifers. This year, we are showcasing heifers from two operations. Both families have been consis- tent customers. If this is something that interests you, please visit with us. We’d be happy to help if we can. Our sale is a video-only sale; no cattle will be brought through a ring. This method has been a great way to have the sale at the ranch without building a facility. The advantage is no cattle will be moving during the sale, so you are free to view them as long as you like. Consider visiting with us about our offering or stopping at the farm to view our offering prior to sale day. We would like the chance to help you select the right bull or heifer to fit your operation. We enjoy talking about cattle and welcome any questions. We look forward to visiting with you and welcome you to the ranch on Nov. 17. Doug & Maria
