Hello and Welcome To our 6th annual production sale. This year we are taking a big leap and venturing on our own. We invite you out Wednesday, February 5, 2020, at 1:00 PM to Ressler Ranch. Come early to view the cattle and have lunch. It seems redundant to comment on the hardships that everyone has experienced this year. The historically frigid winter temperatures and snowfall, the excessive spring and summer moisture and all the delays and breakdowns that came with it, and the wavering prices for both grain and cattle. Regardless of the struggles 2019 brought, I think of Jeremiah 29:11 when God says, “I alone know the plans I have for you, plans to bring you prosperity and not disaster, plans to bring about the future you hope for.” 2020 will be a new year, and I am praying for and have faith in a rebound in all aspects of our industry. 2019 was a year that has shown us just how capable our cattle are. It is years like this that we find our strength and resilience in ourselves as well. As we engaged in the past year’s contentions, we have genuinely found 2020’s offerings to be the result of not only our blood sweat and tears, but also our durable and resilient cows that have earned their right to be on our ranch. Our cows have worked just as hard, if not harder than us, to improve the offering presented to you this year. Our herd has proven that they continue to pass on the longevity that is present in our breed stock, as well as the young stock making their debut. Our herd continues to demonstrate that we’re moving in the right direction. We are excited to provide a mating no one else in the world can offer. We purchased a flush out of a phenomenal cow, Mohnen Jilt 539, and bred her to Ellingson Roughrider. The results were more bountiful than we prayed for. To say that these offspring are phenomenal is a massive understatement. Let’s talk about the females. Each year we pick out our replacement females, and this year we struggled because we wanted to keep them all. We believe our registered heifer crop for sale exemplifies the females that we want in our herd and are the type and kind we can confidently provide for yours as well. 2020 is the year - our inaugural, independent sale, to also start the exciting tradition of offering registered females. Just like in previous years, we will also be offering a complete set of commercial heifers. The depth, muscling, and maternal background both the registered and commercial heifers contain are sure to provide your herd with a successful foundation. We can’t wait for you to benefit from the heifers in this offering. Whether you are a returning customer or a new friend, we appreciate your support in our program and our passion as we continue to work toward supplying the genetics fundamental for profitability. We encourage you to visit the ranch to look firsthand at your future prospects and sincerely thank you for choosing us to be your supplier of the animals necessary for your successful future. Ryan & Meghan Ressler

Sale Dedication We would like to dedicate this first individual sale to Ryan’s parents for all the help and support they have given us over the last few years. We would not be where we are today if they had not instilled in us the passion for this industry. Randy grew up with black baldies and purchased his own cattle in 1969 from neighbors and Evy grew up with both dairy and beef cows. After Randy and Evy married, they switched to raising Angus cattle because there were less health issues, they were more docile, and largely due to the premiums they saw at the sale barn. Both Ryan’s parents have been instrumental in the success of our operation. In addition to being such a large part of our ranch’s growth, they also continue to supply a portion of the commercial heifer offering in the sales. We could not have made it this far with out all of their help and support. Thank you to both of you, from the bottom of our hearts! -4-

This ENTIRE set of flush brothers creates the most unique and exciting line up we have ever offered. We carefully chose to combine the one generation changing performance sire, Roughrider, and the maternal powerhouse, Mohnen Jilt 539. This is the only mating of its kind in the entire world. Each one of these bulls are phenomenal AI stud prospects. These flush brothers will add fleshing ease, intense growth, improve foot structure and add powerful maternal capabilities. They are massively constructed, deep ribbed, naturally thick, tremendously stout and own commanding growth figures. They have been the visitor favorites.

His dam is a top producing female that consistently raises the right kind and has earned an elite status with us. She raised the high selling bull in 2018 sale.
