A gorgeous glimpse of the best of our heifer crop – they all sell here! This very young product of our embryo program is the first daughter to sell from our 6137 donor that also produced an excellent bull calf over the summer. This heifer will remind you in many ways of our top seller a year ago and she – along with the others that sell here – is well worth your trip to McLemore Farms. We have sorted our very best into this offering, and this one is a smooth, sound, powerful favorite that will accomplish plenty.

Elig. Chi Female
Calved: April 8, 2011
Sire: MONOPOLY Dam: MF 8126 (Northern Improvement x Midas) Sells open
We had a long, hot, dry summer and these spring calves bloomed later than normal, but this one is coming hard and she’ll be a favorite sale day. She has a unique and valuable combination of extreme front end blended with a softer leg plus the same hairy, loose-moving style of the best Monopoly calves.

Sire: MONOPOLY Dam: MF 4188 (Hoo Doo Charolais) Sells open Another reason you must attend - here is a very highpotential show and donor prospect from the extreme top. She was ill at photo time, but she’ll be more than ready come sale day. This heifer is exceptionally versatile and fancy with ideal feet and legs plus maximum body capacity and a gorgeous, feminine hip and profile. Her silver hair sets her apart from the others and she has the great look and mass to raise the right kind as she matures.
MF 1072
Elig. Chi Female Calved: April 9, 2011 Sire: MONOPOLY Dam: MF 8547 (My Turn x Hoo Doo) Sells open
This is another very exceptional prospect from Monopoly that you’ll need to see to believe. Trust us, there is much to enjoy in this elite selection of heifer calves. This one has the wonderful side and depth you expect from her sire but she adds an extended front, prettier head, and great feet to her hairy, smooth profile. Her dam is a favorite My Turn daughter that we resisted the temptation to sell a year ago and she rewarded us with this high-potential daughter. Come early to compare before you settle for less elsewhere.

Extra stout and extra fancy! Here is another show heifer prospect that will be worth your while. She is from the first crop by Thriller and she is a favorite for many reasons. The feet and balance here are outstanding and she blends them with great hair, rib shape, and feminine power. We got a late start on these calves but they have been blooming hard since photo time. Those that made the cut are well worth your appraisal.

We knew we didn’t have as many to offer this fall so we’ve loaded this cow offering with as much power as we can muster to bring you to Bradley and send you home very happy. This powerhouse will deliver maximum customer satisfaction and we want you to tell your friends. She is so young and so right and her 2011 heifer calf is one of the very best we weaned. We’ll bet you didn’t think EXT daughters came this stout and wide or with this kind of hair. She’s the right one and we love this mating to Choppin’ Wood, the best son of Troubadour!

A direct daughter of the great Whiplash, here is a stout genetic offering that delivers quality. Her 2011 heifer calf sells here and she’ll give you a glimpse as to the power and look that this cow delivers. We have owned several great Whiplash daughters over the years and this is one of the best as she is built on a more moderate frame with increased muscle and bone. Her udder isn’t as pretty as we like them but she really milks and her calves have been easy to sell. This mating to Choppin’ Wood has herd sire potential!

8a
From the same dam as our proven sire, MF Cotton, that sired so many southern winners and favorites in our 2010 sale, this is a high-potential, young cow with plenty to love. Her dam is a leader in our outfit and this cow has the same potential only with a more modern look and pedigree. She’s as cool and fancy as they come with big legs and serious shag. We love the hip shape and rear leg design of this one and her next calf will have two shots of Heat Wave from the hot, new sire, Choppin’ Wood!

The best Hog on the place! You’ll see why her sire got his name when you inspect this one. We’ve been working to build cows like this young donor prospect and Hog was an important piece of the puzzle. He worked his magic with the top-producing dam of this wide, mobile standout. She’s the best of the best when it comes to pure power and compelling design with better hair, bigger feet, a softer leg, and a more extended front end. Ok, so her udder isn’t perfect, but don’t tell us she won’t raise something very special – and soon. What a cow!

Alias
A maternal sister to Alias from our tried-and-true Donor 971, this is a powerful genetic offering from the very best of our young cows. This cow will get you thinking big things when you see her because she has the look and shape that her well-proven dam is known for with upgraded hair and bone. Her dam has delivered quality from a variety of sires over the years - ask our son-in-law, Harlan Yochum, Jr, OK, about the value of the young sister to this one he snuck out of our 2010 sale – and she is still going strong with a young son by OCC Anchor, MF 30, seeing use here plus a full sister to Alias in our donor program. If we didn’t have her, there is no way we would let you have this one; she’s just getting started! You should see her bred heifer in our keepers!

A perfect whale! Customers ask for our 046 daughters by name and for good reason; they are always some of our best wide bodies. This one is especially intriguing and powerful because she blends maximum body shape with eye-catching balance and extension plus great hair.

The famous “One Eye Red”, this proven donor is a solid-red beauty that delivers power! You’ll believe it when you see her because it starts with giant legs and a massive hip that continues all the way to a powerful chest and forearm. This cow is a real brute and she gave us two excellent daughters by BC Lookout that will hopefully replace her. She has averaged 6 good ones over two flushes and will calve in mid-April.

Always a standout, the 235S cow is always a favorite of visitors and her consistent performance has made her a favorite of ours. She is the dam of one of our very best fall two-year-olds plus another favorite from this spring. She always does her job well, and we love the kind she delivers.

Sire: EVERCLEAR (Strictly Business x Heartbeat) Dam: ANGUS AI 6/12 to Monopoly – PE 8/16-9/30 to MF 7900 – Safe-in-calf
These cows are worth the drive to Bradley to say the least! This is a massive, powerful favorite and she is just hitting her peak of productivity after weaning an excellent Thriller daughter this fall. Everclear daughters are noted for their utility and extreme stoutness and they’ve been prized commodities when they come up for sale. This one takes the prize for power from nose to tail plus she has a high-quality udder and good hair. Tell us about her Monopoly baby; it should be special!

Sire: THE GODFATHER (Full Flush x MA) Dam: OCC ANCHOR AI 5/27 to Monopoly – PE 7/21-8/17 to MF 9158 – Safe-in-calf
When we find a bull we like we keep going back to him. The Godfather worked great in our program to produce strong sons and the wide, flexible, fertile females we need. This is another stout one with a complete, problem-free design and an easy-to-use pedigree that works.

Another very young highlight, here is a classy 3003 daughter that will be a star in a short time. She did a great job with her calf over the summer, and she is bred for a Charolais-colored stout one this time. Be sure to find her in the sale pens because she has the big boned, sharp look of her sisters with a great hip and very square top. Her dam was a strong performer and one of the best direct Cunia daughters we ran.

Sire: MF 3003 (Full Flush x Charolais x Full Flush) MGS: NORTHERN IMPROVEMENT AI 6/30 to Boardwalk – PE 8/16-9/30 to MF 7900 – Safe-in-calf
Our 3003 daughters met with great reviews after our 2010 sale, and here is another fancy star. She is very young, and this combination with Boardwalk will be her first club calf mating. Like her sisters, this one is smooth, sound, and feminine with the right kind of muscle and plenty of maternal ability from her Angus dam.

MF 007 “Secret Agent” Calved: Spring 2009
Sire: YELLOW JACKET Dam: WHO MADE WHO X CHAROLAIS Selling full possession and two-thirds semen revenue interest
Here is the big-legged, choke-necked powerhouse that many have been asking about – and you can take him home! This young Yellow Jacket son is an exciting new sire with a club calf destiny and the perfect pedigree for blending with many lines, especially Heat Wave daughters and their kin. Due to our large reduction in cows over the past year we find ourselves with an abundance of bull power, and this guy is just right for sharing. His first calves are arriving now and, while they are just days old, they’ve come nicely with great hair and color – yellows and smokies on Char-cross cows and paints from black cows. Come early to study The Secret Agent. He’s sound and very balanced with the right frame score and muscle shape to use with many hard-to-mate cows plus great hair and the look you need.

Sire: HOO DOO CHAROLAIS Dam: HOO DOO CHAROLAIS Sells with a Walks Alone heifer calf born 9/14/11 - Tag 1206 Will be rebred to Walks Alone with update available sale day
What a pair! We’ve sorted some fancy, quick-profit options into this set of fall 3-in-1’s and this will be a favorite. The 4012 cow is very unique for this pedigree with her smaller, deeper design, and she’s got a special show prospect on her side. The young pairs we sold a year ago yielded some great results – like the heifer Scott Ritchey of JE Ranch, Blanchard, OK, weaned from his pair that sold well and won big over the summer at the TJLA Fall Classic - and this one will rival them all!

This is a favorite choice from our best fall-calvers and she has a fancy show prospect at-side! This halfblood Hoo Doo is gorgeous in production with a perfect udder and frame score. She is deep, correct and massive with a pedigree you can blend easily with virtually any bull you like. Her new heifer by Walks Alone looks like the right choice as she is great haired with the feminine, balanced look of her dam.

MF 7112
A massive, young powerhouse by Steel Force! This is the first calf from the $7,500 cow that Griswold Cattle Company, OK, selected from our 2010 sale, and she’ll make that selection seem very wise. This special youngster bears a striking resemblance to her impressive dam but with upgraded belly, bone, and total power. She’ll make a front runner in any program as it is hard to fault this one. You might not have expected to find this pedigree here but she is our kind and we can’t wait to see her first baby.

As unique and powerful as anything we can offer! This is another female that you might not have expected to find here but don’t be fooled by the pedigree because this young cow is just right for high-end club calf production with maximum bone, hair, and a gorgeous profile. She has to be the biggestlegged Limousin-cross cow we’ve come across, and she is so wide and impressive from every angle. Her udder is A+ and her heifer calf is long necked and well built with the right look to win. You never, ever go wrong with a pair like this!

Sire: MF 3031 (Wild Card x Anchor x High Roller) Dam: MF 013 (OCC Anchor x OCC Anchor granddaughter) Sells with a GCC Missing Link 148 heifer calf born 10/20/11 - Tag 1263
A great, two-year-old and a reluctant feature of our fall-calving offering, this special youngster is McLemore-bred top and bottom with some of our most-proven genetics. Her sire, MF 3031, is laying in some super females and the line-bred OCC Anchor dam of this cow has long been a favorite. You can rely on this female to make a versatile, easy-keeping, great-looking cow as she matures and she’s nursing a valuable replacement by GCC Missing Link 148, the $41,000-valued, linebred Missing Link son we selected from the top of the 2010 Griswold Bull Sale. We think you’ll agree that it’s hard to find young cows that are this wide, correct and attractive with this type of hair coat built around this type of blood. We hate to see her go!

Our Hoo Doo purebreds have been the source of some of our best calves in recent years, and we’ve got a special selection of them for you this year.

Our 1831 daughters have been customer favorites, and this one has some extra punch plus a very strong bull calf at-side! This massive, powerful beast is a full sister to our MF 9258 herd sire that is working well in our program. She is all Angus quality with significantly upgraded bone and muscle.

This proven cow has given us three leading daughters in a row, and she’s nursing the best one right now! We’ve blended OCC Anchor and his sons with our best Maine-cross cows over the years and the females – like this one – have been tremendous. This version is another big-backed, stout-hipped, long-necked easy keeper that always stays in shape, and she knows how to raise them right. We’ve got two excellent daughters or this one wouldn’t leave because she has a fuzzy, soft-sided show heifer on her now!

This proven cow is especially stout, and she is really showing off with this painted Headliner heifer on her side! The cow is another massive Anchor daughter but she has a sharper hip and look with the same easykeeping, maternal design. Her current heifer calf is the latest of her successes, and she has the same sharp, flat hip with better hair and plenty of shape!
Congratulations to Scott Ritchey of JE Ranch, Blanchard, Oklahoma for his selection of a great new donor with a special heifer at-side from our 2010 sale. The heifer calf sold to Luke Doris, OK, and Brian Martin, TX, and was selected as the Champion Chi Female of the 2011 TJLA Belt Buckle Bonanza for Keenan Schilling, TX. Great job, guys!
