At High Point Genetics, raising bulls is our passion and we are driven to be among the best at what we do. Our customers are our friends. Our goal is to always treat our customers the same way we would like to be treated. At High Point Genetics, you will find an honest, hard-working cow herd that is managed under similar conditions to our commercial bull customers. Throughout our sale book you will notice bulls raised by cows in their teens and references to the production of granddams and great granddams of our bulls. We value longevity and cows that do their job year in and year out. Historically, we have chosen not to rely on the latest donor cow to drive our program into the future, but instead continue to focus on our entire cow herd and hold each cow accountable for their individual performance throughout their entire career. The result of this effort is the largest, most impressive, uniform set of beef bulls we have raised to date. Many of our customers background their calves and sell their calves as feeders in January and February. Most retain their top heifer calves for replacement females and the remaining heifers that are sold are marketed as replacement quality females and sell for a premium. Several customers retain ownership through finish. Therefore, we aim for balance in all traits. Breed leading growth and gain-ability, docility, structural soundness, ease of fleshing and maternal function are top priorities for us. In addition to these qualities, it is important to us that our cattle look the part. We aim for a 6 – 6.25 frame animal. As you study our sale book, you will see that our bulls are bred with these goals in mind. The Angus bulls have been DNA evaluated with the results reflected in their EPDs. We continue to offer a Shared First Season Breeding Guarantee, Volume Discounts, Free Board on the bulls until April 1 and free delivery within 250 miles. In addition, all the bulls in the sale over one year of age have been semen tested by Dr. Shawn Nicholson of the Stuart Vet Clinic and passed a Breeding Soundness Exam prior to the sale. Videos of all the bulls can be found on our website, www.highpointbulls.com and DVAuction.com. Again this year, the sale will be broadcast live on DVauction.com for those who are unable to be present the day of the sale. We remain ever bullish on beef! We welcome you to come take a look at our bulls and see our program prior to the sale. We appreciate the opportunity to get to know you better, learn about your operation and help you select bulls to best complement your program. Please join us Saturday, February 24, at Harken Hills Ranch. The sale pavilion will be heated, and we have hired award winning Brian’s Beef to grill ribeyes for lunch! As always, we look forward to seeing you and thank you very much for considering High Point Genetics for your seedstock needs.

Sincerely,

Brian and Mindy Oswald Brian & Mindy Oswald
