33rd Annual Blue River Gang Sale - Sunday, February 8th

Welcome to our 33rd Annual Simmental, Sim-Angus & Angus Production Sale! First and foremost, we would like to send out a big thank you to everyone who has supported this sale in the past; without you we would not have as successful of a sale as we do today. We truly believe that this is one of the most powerful and complete sets of cattle we have ever offered. As many already know, there are four consignors that make up the Blue River Gang and we all strive for the same goal, which is to provide cattle that will improve your herd on all levels. Through the years of having this sale, we have experienced the ups and downs of the cattle market and have persevered through all, never changing our common goal. As you all know, cattle prices are very desirable right now and look to stay there for the next few years to come. It’s times like these where cattlemen can take advantage of the current markets to improve their quality of cattle for the not so fortunate times down the road and it would be our honor to help you with these improvements. Every year, our open heifers sold on this sale are eligible for a futurity show held in June at the Ruth farm following the sale. With $1500 of total winnings over nine places, this can be a very worthwhile event. The futurity is not limited to just 4-H and FFA members. It is open to anybody purchasing heifers at our sale. We hope everyone can make plans to attend the 33rd annual Blue River Gang Sale. If you have any questions with the sale offering, please feel free to contact any of the breeders or the sale management. Hope to see you on sale day!

SS/PRS Gunslinger 824X, Sire

Triple C Queen Supreme, Maternal Grandam

We personally feel this heifer would compete very well in a purebred Simmental class. It is hard to make heifers this correct and this powerful with a zipper front end like this girl possesses. She has been shown and is very gentle. She’s got the look, and the pedigree is there, the rest is up to you.

33 A few years back, a full sibling to these bulls sold and he topped the sale. After years of successful mating out of our 412 Angus donor, we decided to flush her right back to Ollie and man, we’re sure glad we did! The performance in these three bulls is tremendous and I would imagine they are going to put it right back into their calves. Whether you are looking to add pounds to your calves or are looking to increase maternal traits, these bulls should cover both areas of production and have the numbers to back them. These bulls would be a great addition to any herd.

33rd Annual Blue River Gang Sale - Sunday, February 8th It is hard to poke a hole in this guy! This is one of the most complete bulls that has ever been raised on this farm. Excellent depth of body, rib shape, ties into a great front end, but the most impressive aspect of this bull is how correct he is and how well he moves. He is also supported by great numbers. This bull has been a favorite of many and was named Champion Junior Percentage Bull Calf at the 2014 NE State Fair.

I love the way this female is made: long bodied, good middled, and ties into a great front end. The only reason we are letting this female go is because she is bred a little too late for our needs. Vet called for a late May to June calf.

Irish Whiskey son Angus

We originally bought this female from Willers Mitten Brand. Since she has been in production, she has had three calves. All of them have been steers that have sold on our fall club calf sale. We were hoping for a heifer with this mating, so we had her pasture exposed to Mr. Confidence. For as good as the steers have looked, a female out of this young cow could be very valuable. Anything with Whiskey in its blood is a hot ticket, so don’t miss out on this one. This was Cassie’s only cow and if there wasn’t a wedding and college to pay for, this female would not be leaving the farm! Pasture Sire: BF Mr. Confidence from 4-21 to 9-22-14
