Annual Production Sale

Hello and Welcome Hello and welcome to our 7th annual production sale. We invite you out Wednesday, February 3rd, 2021 at 1 pm to Ressler Ranch. Come early to view the cattle and have lunch. Our theme for last year was “until the next door opens, praise Him in the hallway.” There was a whole lot of praising in the hallway in 2020. I don’t know about you, but we kicked “her” out the door on New Year’s Eve and welcomed 2021 with joy. Now that “she” is behind us, we can all breathe a sigh of relief. The fall, though dry, was pleasant. Especially when compared to the previous year. Harvest was completed before October ended, the cows were able to utilize some late grazing pastures, the calves experienced an uneventful weaning (weatherwise), and the winter seemed to gently roll in. I have been excited about this year’s sale since they hit the ground this spring and even more so when that uniformity and selection showed up this fall. We have evaluated each bull from the ground up and are presenting you with an excellent set of embryos and AI sired bulls for your consideration. We have continued to focus on Angus bulls and females with a balanced set of EPDs that are reproductively efficient, docile in their temperament, and excellent in foot and claw – all in a moderately framed and productive package. Our registered heifer offering exemplifies the females that we want in our herd and the type and kind we can confidently provide for yours as well. As we have in previous years, we are offering you the top of our commercial females. These heifers will provide you with a herd that shows off the deep-bodied, broody females for which commercial ranchers strive. The depth, muscling, and maternal background both the registered and commercial heifers contain are sure to provide genetic progress and improve financial gains. This year we have asked our friends, Wyatt and Rebecca Goettle of Donnybrook, ND, to bring some of their commercial females to our sale. They have exclusively purchased bulls from our ranch for several years and are able to now add heifers that will provide you with the same Reliable Ressler genetics. 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 prospects, and we sincerely thank you for choosing us to be your supplier of the animals necessary for a successful future.

These two factors have led us to utilize the data available at catalog print time. We are committed to getting you updated genomic EPDs and pending registrations.

This is a calving ease option sired by Jindra Acclaim. 006 carries himself in a little larger frame than some of the other Acclaim sons. His first time performance geared dam is the result of a Remedy & Ellingson Blackcap 5013 flush. She passes on a phenomenal pedigree and excellent feet. Combine that with the length, free moving structure and growth improvement characteristics of Acclaim, this is not a bull to pass up.

This is a calving ease specialist!!! Arriving at 61 pounds and then he earned a 736 lb. adj ww. As an Acclaim son, this bull could be an outcross for some herds. Not only does he carry a calving ease stamp of approval, he should improve heifer pregnancy, growth, length, and docility in his sons and daughters.

Goettle Commercial Heifers

We have an exciting new opportunity for our customers to purchase an even broader quality of commercial heifers. We would like to welcome the Wyatt and Becky Goettle family, from Donnybrook, ND. They have been exclusively breeding their cows with Ressler Ranch bulls for the last 5 years. They have brought in a complete set of April born native range-hardy heifers. The Goettle family has worked towards raising quality replacement heifers by focusing on calving ease, impeccable feet, docility, milk production, udder/teat shape and size, and an annual increase in weaning weights. Wyatt says, “I have been so happy with the bulls from Ressler Ranch that I haven’t had any reason to look elsewhere. Never have I had so many replacement quality females to pick from.” In addition, he has seen a drastic increase in his heifer pregnancy rates. The Ressler heifers offered in this year’s production sale are direct daughters of Regiment, Professional, Earnan, Acclaim, Stunner, Fire Brand, Legendary, Rainfall, and Supercharger. The Goettle heifers in this year’s production sale are sired by Ressler Ramasses, Ressler Rampart, Ressler Bank Note, and Ressler Big Sky. They are easy fleshing and naturally muscular in a sound structure and a feminine profile. Over the last several years their dams have been providing us with reproductively efficient females and scale pounding steers. All the Black Angus heifers have been fully vaccinated, vet checked open, evaluated for reproductive soundness, with each one deemed not only adequate in their calving capacity but also mature in their reproductive tract. Any heifers that were labeled as narrow or too immature have been removed from the selection to ensure they will be ready come breeding season and low maintenance during calving. The buyer takes a minimum of 5 head and may take the whole group.
