Fellow Cattlemen: I would like to invite you to the twentieth edition of the Bluegrass Gelbvieh Invitational Sale. As many producers are aware, the Gelbvieh breed is one of the most profitable in the beef industry. Gelbvieh’s popularity continues to grow due to the breed strengths: modest birth, excellent growth, maternal strength, quiet disposition and feed efficiency.

This sale certainly reflects the breed’s strengths.This is one of the best offerings of Gelbvieh and Balancer genetics that we have ever assembled. Most every lot is the result of an AI or ET mating. The bulls were selected with the commercial producer in mind. They are ready for turnout and most are mature enough to service several head. Many of the females will sell AI bred to some of the breeds most popular bulls. Several are donor quality.

Additional pictures and video will be available before the sale. Contact me if you would like a picture or video emailed of a specific lot. I will be glad to discuss the sale lots to provide you with any information that will help in your seedstock selection. If you are unable to attend the sale and are interested in bidding, please contact me prior to the sale. I will attempt to provide the best means for your participation.

Sincerely,

David Slaughter 270-556-4259

Mr. Watchman 401B is a homozygous black bull that combines modest birth (raised by a first calf heifer) with great growth. His adjusted weaning weight was 813 pounds.

His EPD profile is well balanced for calving ease, growth, maternal, and carcass traits.

Imagine the positive impact on your next calf crop. You’ll appreciate the disposition on this one. He’s very easy going. These Watchman sired bulls offer a great outcross for most breeders.

Note the 32 MK for those looking to keep replacements. The good doesn’t stop there. His carcass profile is in the top 3% for YG, 15% for MB (0.50!), and 25% for CW. His personal performance was excellent as well. He came in from the pasture at 864 pounds off his high performance dam.

Mr. S & S Mason 6A is a moderate, easy keeping Mason 14W son out of one of our best Carolina Fortune daughters. He should be ready for heavy use this May. Note his modest 84 pound birth with a 703 pound adjusted weaning weight. He will work best on large framed cows that need moderation.

374A is a son of the fall 2012 Bluegrass Gelbvieh Invitational high selling bull, Sugar Mav 188Y. Sugar Mav 188Y produced our top sire group in the fall of 2013. His calves have bone and substance that is hard to compare. His progeny excel in maternal traits as well. Note that 374A has only an 82 pound birth weight. His WW EPD of 81 places him in the top 10% of the breed. He is also in the top 10% of the breed for MK. 374A’s calf crop should be high performance and the females the keeping kind. Be sure to study this young man close if you need a sire to add pounds and produce replacement females.

Ms Freedom’s Legacy 792R is one of our most solid producing females from the fall program. She typically has calves in the 80 pound birth weight range that come in near the top for weaning (adjusted weaning weights on her calves all above 700 lbs) and yearling weights. Her Highlight 066K daughter, ALS 871X, is one of our favorite young females. Her Carolina Exclusive bull at side is sure impressive. His EPD for WW and YW are in the top 2% of the breed and his TM and YG are top 15%, CW is top 1%, REA is top 10%, and MB is top 25%. This young bull could easily be your next herd sire. Recall that Exclusive just sired the 2015 NWSS Grand Champion bull. 792R was AIed to 1/17 to Lazy TV Sam. The EPD profile for this calf will be off the charts as well. Confirmed bred.
