GUEST BREEDER: LEHRMAN FAMILY SIMMENTALS
WELCOME TO OUR 2024 SALE!
I hope this letter finds you and yours happy and healthy. As I write this, we are heavy into calving. There is nothing more exciting than the promise of a new calf crop. As a kid in school, I would stare out the window and daydream about farming and cows. Now I wish I would have paid more attention in school! But seriously, this is the industry I have always wanted to be part of. As you flip through the catalog, I think you will see we have a “type” of cattle we strive for. Maybe it’s because we feed cattle but performance is very important to us. The bulls have been running together since we sent them to pasture last spring. We feel this gives us the most accurate contemporary group. All the bulls ran the same pastures, were weaned the same day and have been on the same ration since weaning. We feel this allows you the most accurate evaluation of the make up of each bull, so that you can choose the bull that best fits your program and needs. We are mindful that everything we do raising these bulls affects their longevity. We could make the bulls bigger by sale time, but rather choose to develop them on a high roughage grower diet. Our heifers came right out of the replacement pen and were mated as if they were staying here. Some of these heifers are going to be painful to let go but we decided that we truly needed to offer you some of our best. The cows in the offering have been solid contributors to our operation. Some have sons in the sale. We chose to hold some of the later bred ones to offer to you. We will be hosting an open house Saturday, February 17th. Our gates are always open prior to the sale for visitors. Finally, thank you to everyone that has purchased cattle in the past or taken the time to evaluate the catalog and the cattle. CRAIG RAATZ

First of all, I would like to thank all of my bull customers throughout the years. It’s been a fun ride but my health just would not let us continue even on a small scale. I would like to thank Raatz’s for all the help they have provided getting ready for the sales last year and feeding and taking care of the two bulls on this year’s sale. I hope you continue to support this great family as they continue to provide a fine group of cattle. Next, I would like to thank Bob and Cassidy for basically running the ranch this past year while I’ve been dealing with chronic pain. Thanks again for your support!
