Thank you for your continued support!

Welcome!
And just like that autumn is here and the sale season is upon us! Eric decided that after 5 years of writing the welcome letter, I should have the honor of welcoming our guests to the 6th Annual Buckles and Banners Sale! And what a true honor that is! I can’t tell everyone how truly appreciative and humbled I am by the amazing support that we have received from fellow Simmental breeders and cattlemen across the country! We have gained friendships with these people that will last a lifetime, long after the banners fade and the trophies are put into boxes. Additionally, the group of breeders that consistently bring high quality cattle to this sale are the true backbone of this industry. The loyalty and work ethic that these families give to the sale and to the Simmental breed, is why we are able to offer such a tremendous set of animals year in and year out. We are proud to not only call them consignors but family! We are exceptionally pleased with the quality of cattle we have to offer this year and they are a true representation of years of hard work- building the right cow herd, deciding on just the right mating and long, weary nights waiting for that guaranteed striped- faced heifer calf….. wait, that red, horned bull calf. While they don’t all make champions and some don’t even make the replacement pen, the exceptional look and genetic value of the cattle that have been selected for this sale will absolutely be hard to find anywhere else. We are very excited to see our open heifers make memories with their exhibitors and our bred females are sure to become cornerstones in anyone’s herd. We can’t wait to see everyone October 20th in West Point, IA- great friends, amazing food and exceptional cattle! The Gerdes Family What an exciting year for the Buckles & Banners! If the glitter doesn’t catch your attention, as you turn the pages the cattle will stop you in your tracks. Once again the Buckles & Banners group has put together an excellent set of SimGenetics. I think you will be very excited as you study the breds; as Dr. Tara Gerdes says, “They are our best set yet!” Under the tent is always the place to be in West Point, and this year will be no different. Please contact DP Sales or the consignors if you have any questions leading up to sale time. We look forward to seeing you on October 20th! Doug Parke, DP Sales Management

We purchased these embryos at the Embryos on Snow and were elated to get a blaze faced heifer calf. Now that she has been at the show barn, WOW, look out – this one is really special! A January half-blood that has so much volume and mass, while still maintaining great structure and an incredible presence!

The Stiletto daughters are back after a one year layoff. Four years ago, we put Stiletto in the donor pen and the first year she produced a pen of three daughters that won their class in the Denver yards; but a forth flush mate was named calf champion. The next year we flushed her to Renegade, one daughter brought $18,000 and made the top 10 overall at the AJSA Classic in Des Moines, two other daughters brought $6,500 and $5,000 that year. We then took a fourth daughter and sold her as a bred in Denver to Lee Cattle Company of Colorado for $15,000. As you analyze her progeny in this sale you will find consistent quality traits that make good brood cows. 6E is a star face February daughter that is stout, good fronted and big boned, and will be very competitive at any level show.

It is no secret we had a very good Iowa State Fair and for that we are thankful and humbled for the opportunity to exhibited our cattle to the public for their appraisal. In my opinion, 21E is everything a foundation female should be. This girl is designed to be low maintenance for the duration of her lifetime. 21E is sappy belly, soft footed, great fronted and maternally designed. 21E is the third generation in her linage to earn purple when she was named calf champion at the Iowa State Fair. 21E’s granddam did it twice at Fort Worth and once at the national Jr. Simmental show, and her dam did it in Denver. I have always felt this was a cow family we had to invest in. LTS would be interested in helping promote this heifer and all of our other females that we are offing in this sale. I believe 21E is as good as they come and she is destined for great things in the future. LTS reserves the right to a successful flush with a minimum 6 transferable eggs within the next 5 years at the buyers convenience and our expense.

E3 is a sleek designed, sound female that reads extremely well on paper. Ranking in the top 5% of the breed for CE and DOC, top 20% or better for BW, API, MILK, MARB AND TI. E3 was added to the offering at the 11th hour and I look for this one to be unrecognizable by sale day. Her dam was division champion in Denver and her granddam was a feature lot in the 2016 sale selling to the Wellman family. This cow family has consistently produced champions and five figure offspring.

Stiletto’s consistency hasn’t let us down with this flush to Pays to Believe. This heifer is long necked, extremely long bodied and yet still has a beautiful swoop to her belly line. When you see her move you will realize this gal has a lot of potential to be a great breeding piece. Just an April heifer her best days are yet to come.

This April heifer is one of my favorites and will definitely show in a different division. I can’t wait to see how the Pays to Believe cattle will mature from picture to sale time. I truly hate to let this one go, being one of the youngest heifers in the sale, do not overlook this one. Once again LTS will be glad to help the new owners promote this heifer along with any others that carry the LTS prefix.

Sire & Embryos
Lot 29 We have tried to sell a couple of bulls for the last three years at the Buckles and Banners Sale and they have to be fairly special for them to make the cut. We believe 161C easily has the qualities to excel in any program. Last fall we showed him at the Kansas City Royal and the North American International Livestock Exhibition, where he won his division. He then went on to be Reserve Grand Champion Percentage Simmental Bull at this year’s Iowa State Fair. With a true calving ease pedigree, he is built with a long front 1/3 and is impeccable in his shoulder and head shape. I believe these are the kind of sires that if you own, you can sleep well at night knowing they can lay down and have them unassisted. We cleaned up all of our sale and replacement females with him this year and can’t wait to see our calves! 161C is out of our Scarlet donor, who is doing a fantastic job! The McGurk family successfully campaigned a maternal sister to 161C all summer and and his maternal brother was the high selling bull at the 2017 Genetic Blend Bull Sale, now owned by Glacier Cattle Company. If you are in need of a high quality, calving ease herd sire, look no further. We are retaining 1/3 semen interest.

As we start into the bred heifer division, I can honestly say that these are the best bred heifers we have ever offered in West Point and I am really proud of this set. Over the last 6 years we have tried to improve the sale every year and this year all these bred heifers have been halter broke. These next 10 lots are the heifers that have come from the MG/GSC and Haines herds. Buy with confidence! As always, they are AI bred and vaccinated- we will stand behind these females 100%. These are from the core of our program and they will go out and make money for their new owners.

Purple banners run deep in this Sadie cow family. 91C’s granddam, RT0X, won Fort Worth twice, once as a calf and then a year later as a bred; she also was named Grand Champion bred and owned female at the AJSA National Classic. Her dam, 21A, was the reserve division champion in Denver and a maternal sister was named calf champion at the Iowa State Fair this year. You cannot go wrong investing in a proven cow family. Since we live in Iowa it was a management decision to hold over 91C to a spring calving female and she settled to CCR Santa Fe on her first service.

This star headed female will be one of the nicest bred heifers to sell this fall in any sale. We held this one back to add a little punch to this year’s sale. 911D has been one of Dustin Smith’s favorite females at our place since we received her from the satellite herd. I cannot express enough how successful this Wheelman flush was to a great Entourage daughter Maddie May. We do not just flush cows to flush them, they have to earn their right to the donor pen. 911D is broke and ready to be shown this fall if you choose to do so, regardless she will make a great replacement female for her next owners.

When we saw Revival sell in Denver I knew right away we needed to mate him to our Giggles cow, going back to the Maid to Order cow family. 87D has a lot of attributes, if constructively mated she could produce a great one. 87D is a long necked female that ties into a flat shoulder, just the way her sire is designed. This female has three generations of great brood cows in her linage and they never disappoint. A flush mate to 87D was purchased by Diamond A Farms in last year’s sale.

46D is built to be a low maintenance female, this moderate framed, deep bodied female goes back to our Maddie May donor. We sold 3 flush mates in last year’s sale and retained two flush mates back into the herd. These cows are the ones that are easily mated to a wide variety of sires, your options are limitless when all your basic requirements are covered in a package built like 46D.

Maternal sibs to this one reside in Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, and California. 620W highlighted the Diamonds and spurs selling for $20,000 and two of her offspring out selling her the same day! A123 is the dam of our best fall yearling bull.

I should just let the picture sell A614, because it says it all. We have been a fan of this one since Matt bought her off Bill Fulton, she is flawlessly designed. Her daughter was one of the best lots we brought to West Point last fall and will sell as a bred again in this year’s offering. She stems from Lee Simmentals cornerstone donor JBS Rockin Robin R194.

Eric and I purchased Shania from Sunset View several years ago, and what a great investment she has been. Shania has never Missed when mated to Pay’s to Believe, her first fall female was purchased by Circle M at the Diamond and Spur sale for $13,500 a full sib bull calf went to Georgia out of the Buckle and Banners sale for $15,000 and another full sib is GSC LTS Payday an outstanding A.I. sire. Another daughter sired by Innocent man sold for $16,500 in the 2015 Buckles and Banners sale. When you study Shania’s pedigree you will find a storied cows family such as Sheza Dandy, War Diva, and CLO Shania 174s. This ET pregnancy could be a quick investment turn around for the new owners.

By now as you read my footnotes you understand that I believe and invest in proven cow families, that Is why I bought a flush out of Daisy Mae from the Parke/Hatmaker families. Daisy Mae has been a steadfast donor and produced progeny that roams the pastures of several prominent Simmental producers. Daisy Mae’s latest accomplishment was a daughter that sold for $24,500 out of the Stars and Stripes sale last spring. This mating to Steel Force could be the best yet. Don’t forget that the receip dam is a purebred 3-year-old Widetrack daughter.

We are offering 3 #1 IVF Sexed Female embryos, guaranteeing 1 pregnancy.
Last fall when we had the opportunity to purchase RT0X “Sadie,” we jumped on it to try and add a cornerstone donor to our growing Simmental program. She has worked well for us while in embryo production, which is why we are able to offer you some cutting edge genetics out of her and the new, popular sire, W/C Relentless. With her power, performance and no miss track record, combined with Relentless’ long sleek front end and killer look, this should be an awesome mating!
Breeding Guarantee
Cattle will sell under the standard terms and conditions recommended by the American Simmental Association. We guarantee all livestock sold are sound breeders. However, the heifers that are shown can often be fed to an extreme level of obesity for the purpose of exhibition. In those circumstances, the heifers are often not allowed to be bred in ideal conditions due to the priority of continuous exhibition and are typically bred later to lengthen their possibility of exhibition. Due to this we will hold the feeder/owner responsible for any reproductive problems and no longer feel responsible to guarantee that individual heifer. In the rare case this was to occur, the Buckles and Banners consignors will make an attempt to assist and help you breed the heifer through the following two breeding seasons. Also, all bred females are sold under the condition “safe in calf,” as attested by a licensed veterinarian and sell with no further guarantee. The ultrasound results reported are as accurate as possible, but are not guaranteed. No guarantee is given that bred females will deliver a live calf. The buyer will be given a 24 hour option to have a licensed veterinarian examine the female before she leaves the sale premises. Sexed semen lots come with no guarantee. We only guarantee the female was exposed to sexed semen.
