“I will be the judge of that!” my mother said in a stern voice, as I surrendered my report card to her. For some time I had been pleading my case for the substandard grades that she would see. You know, trying to soften her initial reaction. I sure wanted to remain as her favorite kid!! That “favorite” part is debatable with my siblings and could probably be another story. Well, the good Lord must been watching that day because the situation I found myself in turned out just fine. Some 74 years later, whenever I hear, “I will be the judge of that,” I immediately turn in to a scared little 8-year-old kid knowing full well I had not done my best. Welcome to our 51 st Annual “Focus On Performance” Sale. We have done our best to offer another superb group of breeding bulls and females, and yes, we want you to be the judge of that! Never before in the history of this cow herd have we been in such a pinnacle position to provide the pure performance and quality like we will this year. Take advantage of this aspect to further enhance your bottom line with cattle that have been selected for nearly 100 years (actually 98 years) to be fertile, flesh easy, grow like the dickens, pound the scale, and do it year after year with unbelievable quality. Our experience has taught us that no matter how much AI’ing we do, five years down the road a high percentage of our cows will be sired by our own herd bulls. With that in mind, two years ago Tyler hit the road and sifted through 1000+ bulls. His mother drove him day and night to hurry the process along. The results were he found two bulls that met the Bush criterion based on numbers, pedigree, and phenotype. We managed to get one bull bought and did buy semen on the other. That is how the great breeding bull KR Premier was added to our battery of herd bulls we now own. His first progeny will sell this year, and they are outstanding. We added an impressive calving ease sire about the same time, Styles Agent, and his first get will be available as well. As a combined group, they will get your attention for quality besides their outstanding calving ease potential. We can’t leave out the old Everest sire. He has flat out right done it again with another solid sire group of excellent bulls as well as heifers. He may be the most consistent sire we have used in recent years. The exciting part is that our Bushs Custom Built 860 has again proven to be one-of-a-kind breeding bull when it comes to producing pounds in a package second to none for quality. Study his pedigree, top side is three generations of Bush breeding. Proper selection does pay dividends. We can’t forget our Bushs Cruise Control bull, he is amazing when it come to siring pounds and quality. You know the drill, check our website for any updates like the supplement sheet, and the videos should be there two weeks before the sale. Any questions, just call and we will be happy to discuss any and all sale lots. Please use DVAuction if you are unable to attend. It does work quite well, and instructions are on inside back cover. We have invited you to be the Judge of what has been accomplished here all these years. We truly have done our best! The report card (sale book) is in your hands. Hopefully you will also be holding a bid number! As it has been for the past 51 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. Jim & Carol Scott & Jo Tyler Brittany
