Welcome from Thorson Herefords!
Another year has come and gone and as I am preparing for another bull sale I hope this catalog finds you in good health and spirits with an eye toward the future. Cattle prices right now are tremendous and there is plenty of hay and grass left over. Even my optimistic outlook didn't see it getting this good. Massive demand with few numbers makes it feel like the guy who owns cows is in the driver's seat, but it is those cows that are going to drive the car. A few notes before you (hopefully) dissect the catalog. Although it doesn't seem like I have been doing this long this is my 10th year of selling bulls. I was the volume buyer at the Shield Bar sale in February of 05. Since that day I have added registered cows from a few different places, all with the eye toward what is needed to survive the extremes of the Northern Plains. I believe in culling and have done it relentlessly to get the herd I have now and will continue to cull until I can't find any reason not to. I try to make sure that my cows are the type to help the commercial man in today's world of bigger places and less labor. There are both registered and commercial bulls in this sale. The commercial bulls go back to my Dad's cow herd. Good honest Hereford cows that paid the way for him to raise 6 kids. I can't tell you the pedigree for 10 generations but I can tell you that they are functional and efficient and have been culled hard for any problems for nearly 20 years by me. These bulls have spent their whole life within 7 miles of my house. They were raised here and fed here. That last part is why they aren't feedlot fat. They are in good condition to go to work and last a long time. I don't push them, only feed to reach their potential. I have worked for longevity. You will see JC L1 Domino in the pedigree of several cows. He was in the pasture breeding at 7 and was still as active and moved like a 3 year old. You will also see CO l Domino 847 in the pedigree of several cows. He is still active right now and will be 7 this spring. His mother raised 10 natural calves and his sire was breeding in the pasture at 8. I have always felt that any ranch is only as profitable as the cows running on it. Every bull I have ever bought was with an eye toward what sort of females he would leave. From that I incorporate as many other traits as I can without losing sight of the goal of top females. Every bull in this sale was planned on being a heifer calf of the best quality his mother could produce. When they come out as bulls I sort through them and sell only the ones I would be willing to use on a set of commercial cows that had to pay my bills. All the bulls have passed both a semen and BVD tested by Dr Stangle. My entire cowherd has been tested for both IE and the grey gene by Dr Beever and any animals carrying either gene were eliminated. Lastly, I would invite you to buy with confidence. I live here and have no plans on leaving or quitting the business. All bulls are fully guaranteed through the first breeding season. If you live in South Dakota and want to bring a trailer I will give you $100 cash for every bull you take home on sale day or I will deliver them for your purchase price. If you live out of state I will have to deliver them after trich testing them. Delivery will be as soon as possible and the first 500 miles free, after that at cost. Thank you very much for your interest and hope to see you February 10th. Doug Thorson –1–

As soon as I heard that Gordon Jamison was going to sell possession of 6001 I headed to Kansas. I spent a whole day looking through cows, bulls and heifer calves from every bloodline he had. At the end of the tour there was no doubt that 6001 was going to South Dakota. His daughters are as good as any I have ever seen. They are moderate in size with great udders and ease of fleshing that the Northern plains needs. His sons have the thickness and muscle that sets them apart from most. He was used with great success on both Jamison's and Oleen's before I got him and he did everything I could have asked here. With over 200 actual calves recorded and 115 calves from daughters recorded his genetics are proven to be no fluke.

I am not sure if I should call this bull a low birth weight bull with the added benefit of making great females or the other way around but no matter how you call it he is impressive. His stature is deep bodied, easy fleshing and free moving and his genetics are some of the best. His mother is the grandam of a whole bunch of top selling bulls from Cooper's and his sire is the greatest female producer that Cooper's have had. He is the kind to add milk while keeping birth weights in check while gaining on fleshing ability.

A bull from Ken Coleman. When I first saw this bull all I could think of was Yahtzee. He has it all, length, muscle, depth, low birth weight and pigment. I have used this bull every way you can and haven't found a way for it to be wrong. He has the performance to ratio above 100% but I have used him on heifers and calved them with the cows. He will erase white and his daughters have near perfect udders. His calves seem to have a little extra vigor at birth as well. SEMEN AVAILABLE

Notice the mother of Lot 2 in his pedigree. Putting her with 847 only made things better. If you want a low birth weight bull that has generations of great udders behind him, here he is.

I don't think I could have gotten one out of a better cow. His mother has a weaning ratio of 106% on 7 calves and has produced herd bulls for Oleens and Colemans. That is just the start of what this bull is. He has length, muscle and performance to show at the top, with his calves averaging 101% and 102% for each of the last 2 calf crops but his daughters tell the story. To say they are special is a gross understatement. His first daughters weaned off 53% of their bodyweight this year without creep, earning them an average weaning ratio of 113%. Take a good look at his sons because there aren't many cowherds that they won't help. DOB: 02/07/2010
