Fellow Cattlemen,

Sale Weekend Schedule

On behalf of all of us at Loving Farms, we February 28, 2014 would like to thank you for taking the time Noon-6pm: Cattle available for viewing to look over the offering of our fourth annual 6pm: Supper Predictable Genetics, Proven Performance Sale. March 1, 2014 It’s often said, but we honestly believe this is 12 pm: Lunch the strongest set of bulls top to bottom that we 1pm: Cowboy Auction have ever offered and the females are as good as we have ever let go of. The last few year’s weather and conditions, as well as, expensive feed and limited grass have forced us to lean our operation for survivability. Many might look at this as a hardship, but it has been the contrary. It has forced us to take a hard look at production traits and genetics and make choices that will not only make us the most efficient we can be, but push our genetics to be their very best. The result is this offering being as consistent and powerful as any Shorthorn genetics you will find in the country. As you look through this offering, you will see the continued emphasis on birthweight and calving ease. Over 90% of the offering is in the top 15% of the breed for BW epd and 70% for CE epd. As an added note, nearly 90% are in the top 15% for milk epd. Just because we have made a strong push for the convenience traits, doesn’t mean we haven’t pursued the performance end. Each set of bulls are the highest average Yearling weights for their respective groups, showing that you can have calving ease and performance. The Spring Yearling bulls and heifers will be ultrasound scanned by sale day and their information will be available on our website, www.LovingFarms.com. Also, by the time you receive your catalog, videos of each lot will also be on our site. As an added addition this year, the sale will be broadcasted live on DVauction.com. If you are unable to attend, please log in and join us via the internet. The auction will be again in the “Cowboy Auction” format. We honestly believe this is the most straight forward way to have an auction. If you can’t be with us, feel free to make arrangements to bid by phone or internet. You can give any of our family or representatives a call and we would more than happy to assist. The cattle will be available for viewing at any time leading up to the sale. Plan to join us for supper on Friday night the 28th at 6 pm or be sure to be at lunch at noon March 1st just ahead of the sale at 1:00pm CST. We look forward to seeing you,

The Lovings
