ASA# 2499595 Purebred Simmental Homozygous Polled All In continues to impress us each year! Not only are his sons well accepted, but his daughters are the ones you want in your replacement pen.They have plenty of milk and the udder shape and quality look to hold up a long time.The females are good moms and have excellent dispositions. All In was injured at the beginning of the breeding season last year, so we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have as many calves last year. Look for more in our bull sale in 2014! The All In calves come easy and continue to grow! The vigor his calves have when they are born is incredible. His larger frame size adds pounds without losing any body capacity. EPD profile is hard to beat, as well as the phenotype and functionality of his calves. Use on smaller and moderate framed cows and heifers. Contact Kenner Simmentals for semen. Semen price: $25/straw or $20/straw for 30 or more. Progeny sold: 2012 sale - 6 sons averaged $6,000 2012 ND State Sale - 1 heifer sold for $3,750 2013 sale - 2 sons averaged $7,500 and 4 bred heifers averaged $3,250

ASA# 2579943 CSA# 730295 Purebred Simmental Homozygous Polled Last year we ended up with mainly heifer calves, so only a few bulls were in the sale, but they still sold very well! We used him heavily for this year and have a tremendous set of calves on the ground already! The thickness of Red Ridge and his calves is something to see in person! His profile photo does not do him justice! He is a larger framed bull but does not sire a large frame. His disposition is super – an easy bull to have around. The second high-selling red bull in the 2013 Lewis Farms sale was a Red Ridge son who sold to Doll Simmentals in New Salem for $16,000! Semen available through Bouchard Livestock – call Erika at 406-581-1188. Semen price: $35/straw or $25/straw for 30 or more Kenner Progeny Sold: 2013 sale – 4 sons averaged $4,375

ASA# 2564444 • Homozygous Polled • Homozygous Black • 1/2 SimAngusTM We sold KS Vegas to Select Sires in our 2011 sale. Since then we acquired the right to walk him in our pastures for this next breeding season! Vegas calves exceptionally well on heifers and adds depth and style to his calves. The females in our replacement pen are deep bodied and very feminine! So far, we are very pleased! We only sampled him the first year so we didn’t have a lot of calves. We used him again and next year we will have a lot more since we will be utilizing him in the pasture as well! Contact Select Sires for semen information! 614-873-4683 www.selectsiresbeef.com SELECT

ASA# 2662127 • Homozygous Polled and Homozygous Black • Purebred Simmental Magic Mike was the high-selling bull in our 2013 sale at $14,000 to Esty Ranch, Gunnison, CO. He is one of the most impressive “Olie” sons we’ve ever seen! He is not a big-framed bull, but he is packed full of muscle! He is so thick and deep bodied. His dam was a first calf heifer and is a moderate framed, good uddered cow. His grandmother has only had females and they are all still in the herd and have produced bulls in the sale. Good disposition runs deep in the cow family as the dam, granddam and all of her daughters have always had a great attitude. Magic Mike has always been a pet in the pen. Everything lined up for this guy! Not only his 50K EPDs, but his carcass data, his DNA tests and his phenotype make him hard to beat!
