Swing Shift Simmentals Production Sale - Page 1

Greetings friends and fellow cattlemen, Welcome to the Second Annual Swing Shift Simmentals Production Sale. We were extremely excited at the crowd and compliments from last year’s sale and can’t wait to showcase this year’s offering to each of you. Last year’s set of show calves produced a Champion Simmental Steer at Washington County as well as multiple breed and class winners at Muscatine County Fairs. As you read through this book we feel that we have assembled a set of cattle that we are very proud of and look forward to the cattle being offered being able to booster your bottom line for years to come.

Over the years Swing Shift Simmentals has kept a keen eye on the needs of the commercial cattlemen producing cattle who don’t melt when put into production and come with the added frame that’s needed in today’s beef cattle business. The open heifers in this year’s sale are all halter broke, extremely gentle and are ready to go right into your show barn. The bred heifers have been developed on a low energy ration and have spent the summer out on grass to provide you with a female who won’t melt next summer when turned out into the pasture. The breds have been pregnancy examined multiple times so known breeding dates are available for the entire offering of bred cattle.

At Swing Shift Simmentals we have been blessed to have a great group of repeat buyers over the years out of our bull pen and have sold our bulls privately for decades on a first come first serve basis. We offered up first choice on our bulls in last year’s sale and will do so again this year.

We decided to bring in a great group of guest consignors to offer cattle in this sale along with our own. We are proud to call these consignors, friends. We look forward to offering their top end in this sale for years to come.

We look forward to welcoming each of you to our new sale facility to check out the cattle. If you have any questions or would like to view this year’s set prior to sale day feel free to reach out for a tour. We’d love to hear from you.

THANK YOU!

The Swing Shift Simmentals Production Sale Group

I was fortunate enough to land embryos by the great Sequoia Y770 female and boy did they not disappoint. To lead off this year’s offering we have an incredible daughter by SAM who comes with the big, powerful feet, added power and a breathtaking look. This female is electric in her design and comes backed by one of the most impressive red females in the breed today. Along side this stand out daughter is a very impressive bull by the exciting G- and W/C sire Bet on Red, here’s a bull who could propel a program to the next level. Excellent hoof design, long extended neck, and a powerful hip shape. Couple his pedigree and his looks and you’re left with one exciting sire prospect. Tie right into the great Y770 cow family!
