Shorthorn Bull and Heifer Cowboy Auction
Fellow Cattlemen, We would like to take the opportunity to invite you to the third annual “Predictable Genetics, Proven Performance” Bull and Female sale. It is with great pride that we bring a larger and deeper set of bulls and a solid set of replacement females for your inspection. It is no secret that these are trying times in the beef industry with inputs at record prices and resources at a premium. Now is the time for you to evaluate your genetics, select wisely, and be ready to sit in the driver’s seat, as the future suggests it will be a seller’s market. We feel very confident Shorthorn genetics are some of the best investment dollars to be spent in the cattle industry in terms of efficiency, convenience, and performance traits. As you look through the offering, we feel you will notice that a balance of performance and convenience traits are the cornerstone of our operation. One thing noticed is the birthweights of the spring bulls may be higher than their EPDs would suggest. Our feeding system has changed with limited feed resources, the use of lower quality forages and distiller’s byproduct in the calving pastures made for heavier calves. To this, we suggest to trust in the CE, BW, and $CE EPD values, as they will tell you the whole story and we are extremely confident in the accuracy of these numbers. Once the bulls got through the spring, they hit the western Kansas short grass with no creep or supplement and were nothing short of amazing as they weaned as the heaviest set ever. All bulls have been developed on a diet high in roughage and energy with plenty of exercise and are ready to go to work in any environment. The spring yearlings will be ultrasounded by sale day. Please check our website for updates. The heifers have been handled at a little slower pace and will be CHV’d, pelvic measured, and ultrasounded. Many of the customers from the previous sales have commented on the great deal of transparency that the “Cowboy Auction” provides. We feel confident that this format is the most straight forward and low key way to put on an auction. If you can’t be with us, feel free to contact any of the numbers listed and we will be happy to assist with any questions or for bidding over the phone. The offering will be available for viewing at any time leading up to the sale. Plan to be with us to look through the cattle and for supper on Friday evening and lunch at noon on the 2nd just ahead of the sale at 1:00PM CST. We look forward to seeing you,
The Lovings

Cowboy Auction Procedure The bid-off will start at 1:00 PM CST, March 2. Bulls will have a starting bid of $2,200 and heifers will begin at $1,400. At the time of the bid-off, each individual lot will be announced and all who wish to bid on that lot will be asked to raise their bidder number. Each bidder will be “in” until he chooses to step out and withdraw. Each $100 increment will be announced, and the bidders will be given time to consider whether they are “in” or “out,” before the next increment is announced. When only one bidder remains, they will have “won” that lot. If you are unable to attend or for advanced bidding, contact any of the listed phone numbers to setup bidding by proxy.

Extremely deep sided and eye appealing, this bull is really hard to take your eyes off of. Couple his look with exceptional calving ease and you have a tremendous combination in a total outcross pedigree to all that is popular in the Shorthorn breed.

A smooth made, structurally correct, 4508 son. When the calving ease of 4508 is put together with an exceptionally big-middled, thick-made cow, like 5305, the results are obvious.
4
Fall Bulls Lots 3-5 are Kaper 4508’s by maternal half sisters of Jazz 266L. They are as picture perfect for consistency as you would expect ¾ brothers to be. Stout, rugged, beef bulls that will be safe calving in any heifer pasture.

Fall Bulls Lots 7-10 are embryo full brothers, line bred on the maternal power of the Poly CJ Cumberland 5113 cow and sired by her grandson, the legendary Jazz 266L. Many have appreciated these bulls since birth for extreme depth of rib and massive amounts of muscle. They won’t be large framed, but they will produce extreme function, longevity, and fleshing ability into any type of cows.
