Welcome to our 10th Annual Sale!
Welcome to the Lehrman Family Simmental/Raatz Family Annual Production Sale. This combination of genetics has put together another great set of bulls for your appraisal.
Wow, what a year it has been from dealing with drought, health issues, and the bred female dispersal. We kept back 30 open heifers to breed and are buying a few breds to get back on track, that is if we get the health issues taken care of. So next year we hope to have a few bulls to combine with the Raatz family. In closing, thank you for your continued support.
I want to thank my daughter Cassidy, my Dad Bill, Bob Paradeis and several other neighbors and friends for all the help during this difficult last year.
Thank you,
Dan & Vicki Lehrman and family Cassidy and family Bill LehrmanWelcome from Raatz Farms
I hope this catalog finds you surviving what has been a challenging winter so far, but with the snow comes a renewed excitement for this spring and what it brings.
We are very excited with this year’s bull offering. When selecting these bulls we try to breed for the type of cattle that work best for us in the feedlot; thick, high growth cattle with superior carcass traits are essential. When raising our own replacement heifers calving ease, strong maternally and always, always consider docility. Raising functional cattle that require less inputs that are more profitable.
The breds came right out of our replacement pen. They have been bred and raised just like we would if we would be keeping them. I am confident they will be strong assets for their new owners.
I would like to thank our family and the Lehrman family for all the help and support and thank you for your interest in our program. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions or to view the cattle prior to February 27th. Hope to see you on sale day!
Thank
you, Craig & Angie RaatzLehrman Family Simmentals & Raatz Farms Annual Production Sale

BULL BUYER’S GUIDE
EXPLANATION OF HOW TO UTILIZE API AND TI INDEXES
First, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping replacements use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference between bulls. (As described to the left, index units are in dollars per cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a $50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed. For more information, visit www.simmental.org.
