beef connection 10th Annual Bull Sale March 14, 2020

A note from Great Lakes Beef Connection... The families of the Great Lakes Beef Connection welcome you to our 10th annual bull sale. We are excited for your appraisal of what we believe is our deepest and highest caliber set of bulls yet. We have worked hard to test these bulls with every modern tool that we have available to us as seedstock providers. All bulls sell with genomically enhanced EPDs, ultrasound data, performance test information, fertility tested, along with a strong bull warranty. We strive to provide you our customers with the most accurate information as possible when making your herd sire decisions. Each one of the bull providers in Great Lakes Beef Connection continue to make strides in producing bulls that rank among the best in the business in terms of economically relevant traits. A balance of both maternal and terminal traits can be found in every lot in the sale and we are confident no matter the focus of your operation our genetics can move you in a positive direction. Likewise, we recognize the challenge of beef producers in our region getting the genetic worth of their feeder cattle. We are proud to have invested in a partnership with Allied Feeding Partners to allow our customers another channel to market their feeder cattle. The partnership has already allowed us to source feeder cattle from our bull customers and expect us to continue to leverage this relationship to ensure you are getting the genetic worth of your feeder cattle. We hope that you can join us on March 14th for our sale or join us at our open house on March 7th at our sale facility in Clare, MI. Feel free to contact any of us to arrange a time to view the bulls. Blessings, Great Lakes Beef Connection

What our customers have to say...

6H RANCH

“We have purchased bulls at the Great Lakes Beef Connection sale over the past several years and have seen a steady weight increase in our calves being shipped in the fall. It is nice to have such a great selection of bulls to choose from so close to home.” -Star and Stacy Hughston, 6H Ranch

“We have been buying bulls here since the very first sale. These bulls are developed the right way and are ready to go to work right off the trailer. Then, when we feed out their calves, they are the kind that excel in carcass merit, consistently catching premiums that impact your bottom line.” -Dave Noggle Family DAVE NOGGLE FAMILY
