Polled Red & Black Simmental Cattle
Welcome to our 28th Annual Genetics with Vision Bull and Female sale and our 47th year of selling Simmental Genetics. Thank you for your interest! Our growing season had just enough rain and lots of sunshine. Our pastures held up longer than usual and our crops yielded well. Weaning weights on the calves were very good and the cows maintained their condition. Once again we retained ownership of our steers and finished them at a custom feed lot. We again were very pleased with how they performed and the premiums we earned. This is evidence that the economic indexes work. The black purebred program is strong with several standouts from RFS Credentials, RFS Roll Call, Breakaway, and Pontiac. If you are in the market for a percentage bull, check out the impressive Cochise group. The red purebred side has a large sire group by our outcross Guardian son, Octane and a smaller group of RFS Bruno sons that are super stout. For the first time, our aged bulls spent most of their time at Justis’ place this year and really did well there. The bred heifers are sired by some of the top sires in the breed and are carrying cutting edge progeny. It is the best group we have ever offered. The open heifers absolutely come from the top of the herd! This class of open heifers is exceptional. We’d love to have you come and take a look yourself and see. They. Are. Good. Happily, we are able to offer some elite embryo packages as well. New this year—we are excited to offer commercial bred heifers from Holm Family Farms and Joel, Amy and Daniel Stenseng. Quality programs bringing quality red and black heifers. You can read more about this new offering at the end of the catalog. Also new this year—we are excited to offer the Right Bull program. If you have been following our program, you know that we try to make use of every tool available to eliminate as many as the un-
knowns as possible in our breeding stock. Allied Genetic Resourc- es and Top Genomics now have a program known as Right Bull to help in the breeding livestock selection process. Commercial cattlemen can now take a tissue sample from their females and get the genomic information including parent verification to help select the best herd sire to move their program forward. This pre- cision breeding program is known as Right Bull. There are lots of excellent genetics out there and this helps narrow the search for the Right Bull. We would like to partner with any of our customers who would like to pursue this. We will provide the sample kits and tool for collecting the tissue sample for DNA analysis and will give sale credit for ½ the DNA cost. We also will give sale credit for the Right Bull information ($300.00). We know an investment in ge- netics is an important decision and want you to have confidence in your decision. Feel free to contact us if you have questions regarding this program. We will have people from Allied Genetic Resources here sale day as well to answer any questions. We would love to see you in person on sale day, however, if that
is not an option, join us on DVAuction or contact one of our sale representatives. Finally, we thank you for your past support and friendship. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help you in your selection process. Feel free to stop by the farm before the sale-visitors are always welcome! Sincerely, The Rydeen Family
