We welcome you to our 35th Annual Production Sale. It’s hard to believe it is time for another production sale. Weather wise, we are a lot better off than we were one year ago. There are still some very dry spots in the area. Our cows had some limited green grass to eat this summer.

Our breeding philosophy focuses on the female while keeping traits in balance by using the most advanced tools for genetic progress. Our offering is full of very structurally sound and easy doing cattle. We pride ourselves in the disposition of our Charolais herd. Our cow herd is built on traits propagating longevity. For years we have emphasized developing from the ground up. We expect our stock to provide you with animals that survive and thrive in the natural elements for years to come.

This year we have added a few more hybrid bulls. Customers tell us that they work very well with any cow and are very satisfied with the results. The 2-year-old bulls are an excellent group of older bulls.

We hope you can plan to attend and join us in person. If you are unable to attend the sale, it will be broadcast live on DVAuction. We are grateful for the blessings that we all have received. We look forward to your success and trust that God will guide us in all our cattle operations.

If you need extra milk, his daughters should really produce. Dam (F861) has a WW ratio of 113 and a YW ratio of 107 on four calves. Lot 7 could be herd bull potential. As a group, the H211 offspring are very easy to calve.

Through experience over the years, we feel that WPDA is the best way to evaluate performance. It covers all growth stages, not just the milk production of the dam. We do not push our bulls very hard, and some will still gain 3.5 – 4 pounds per day. These bulls are not fat and will not melt away when they go to pasture. Longevity is bred in. These bulls should last for many years. If not, let us know. Rememberwe do the work and develop breeding stock for YOU, our customers.

—L072 spent the summer at the ET center with his dam and was not developed and weaned with his contemporaries. Despite his developmen his EPDs rank in the top 20% WW, top 6% YW, top 15% milk and TSI of top 7%. He also ratioed a 116 WW and 110 YW. His dam, a daughter of the Z245 cow, is one of the best cows in our herd for quality and performance.

Each of these lots are all very smooth, long made, easy calving bulls with good muscling. As stated before, the H211 sire are born very easily.
