Brant Farms Sale Catalog 2017 by Eberspacher Enterprises

Welcome to our 13th Annual Sale! WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU APRIL 8TH!

Welcome to Brant Farms Genetic Balance Sale as we celebrate our 13th annual production sale on Saturday, April 8th. Please come early and enjoy a cup of coffee and something sweet. This will provide you with ample time to view the cattle and hunt one of us down if you have any questions. Join us for a hearty lunch beginning at 11:00 with the sale starting noon sharp. As this goes to print we are enjoying blue skies, bare ground and temperatures back in the forties. I hope we do not have March weather the day of the sale! Regardless of what Mother Nature throws our way, we will handle it and I am very pleased and proud of the powerful, productive stock we have to offer you. I believe as you look through this catalog, you will find there is something for everyone. The feedback from our customers, who share our enthusiasm for this business, whether on a large or small scale, is a great tool for us as we plan ahead. We believe we have an outstanding set of prospective herd sires that offer calving ease, growth, carcass values and maternal traits. They have all been semen tested and ultrasounded. The majority of the bulls have been tested for coat color and the polled gene. The females are first calf heifers doing a great job raising their winter born calves of which many will be on the plus side of 300 lbs. by sale day. Black or red, this selection of Purebred and Sim-Angus cows represent many top AI sires in the industry. Check out the power exhibited by those five open heifers. Interested buyers are urged to view the sale cattle on Friday or any time prior to Wednesday of sale week. Visitors are always welcome. Please contact John Boy, Julie, myself, or the staff of Eberspacher Enterprises if you have questions regarding the cattle offered for sale. As always, if you need to leave your cattle for a few days, don’t hesitate to ask - we are more than willing to work with you. Thank you for being a part of our sale, and whether you are reading our catalog from afar or joining us on sale day, we value your interest and confidence in our program. I would be remiss to not thank those who make today possible: my wife, Vicki, and our family - for sharing my vision; Julie who pushes all the paper and cattle into the chute; and the crew of Matt, Scotty and Ben, led by John Boy - who are dauntless and work tirelessly. Hats off! Sincerely, Ron Brant

Dear Friends and fellow cattlemen: Another year has come and gone and each year seems to come and go a little faster. Sale time is here again and I’m very excited to welcome you all back to our Genetic Balance Sale. Let’s start with the bulls. This is the stoutest, most docile group of bulls we have raised to date. Last spring, these guys hit the grass running and never looked back. They were weaned on a high roughage diet and developed for the long haul. These bulls represent some of the most popular AI sires in the industry. Whether you are looking for a calving ease bull or a bull for mature cows, I am sure you will find a bull that suits your needs. Ultrasound data and scrotal measurements are available to assist you in your decision. Again, we have a great selection of first calf heifers with calves at side. They come with January and February calves that are ready to hit the grass. Black or red, heifer or bull calf; there is sure to be a pair to fit your needs. Many of the calves are AI sired and the balance are from our Hart Payweight Angus bull purchased on the 2/22/2016 sale. (Look him up on the DV Auction website.) Five open heifers top off the sale offering. We took a long look at these open heifers and picked five different types straight out of the replacement pen. Take a look at these girls; they’re sure to impress. I would like to thank my family, especially my wife. Your support drives me to be a better person each day. Thank you Scotty and Matt for all you guys do and Julie for keeping up with all the paperwork and the many other duties you seem to get roped into. Thanks to all the friends and family that come together to help make this sale a success. I appreciate it very much. Thanks to Ron and Vicki for the opportunity to work with these great cattle. I look forward to seeing everyone sale day. Without your support, this day would not be possible; so thanks a bunch. Please feel free to stop by or contact Ron or myself with any questions you may have. Best Regards, John Von Rueden

The Man In The Arena “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory or defeat.” -Theodore Roosevelt My sincerest thanks to everyone in the arena, Jazzy Simmental

Herd Reference Sire:

Elm-Mound Upgrade Z4 Elm-Mound Upgrade Z4 is our Upgrade son out of the Independence cow. Elmer consistently stamps his progeny. They come moderately framed, well muscled, and thick and deep. They move freely and walk on a good foot with plenty of bone. His calves come the perfect size, unassisted! His daughters are “cowy” and tightly uddered. You cannot go wrong putting any one of these bulls with your herd. These fall bulls were not pampered, going back out on pasture last summer with limited grass. Then they were fed right along with our yearling bulls this winter.
