elcome I want to lead off with a huge thank you for taking the time to look through our catalog. I am truly excited with the direction, success and future of our program. It has been an exciting inaugural year with multiple champions from county to national levels. I have really enjoyed the opportunity to work with new and old customers and work on achieving their families’ goals! I encourage you to look through this catalog and study not only the pictures, but the pedigrees. We have built a program around successful donor cows, who not only performed themselves, but are getting it done in the front pasture now. Feel free to contact me or the crew with any questions. I can’t thank my family and crew enough for the year of hard work that goes in to this offering on sale day, I hope you are as impressed with their hard work as I am. The cattle look great because of them. We would like you to recognize one thing about our program--we are here for you from start to finish to help you achieve your goals! Let’s go make memories together. Thanks for your interest.

We start this second annual event off with a gift that keeps on giving. WSCC Chloe 84E was a donation consignment last year in Denver. She commanded a price of $8,750 in the National Sale and was purchased by a group of generous donors. We brought her home from Denver and bred her to Mercedes Benz with the sole purpose to sell her as a bred heifer in the 2018 Investment Sale. She sells now and will certainly be an asset to your herd. Here’s your chance to garner a breeding piece for your program while supporting a great bunch of kids involved with the Maine-Anjou junior program.

These two young females will be sure to catch your eye on sale day. They are sired by the hot new sire, Garth and their mother is an Insight daughter that originated at Express Ranches in Yukon, Oklahoma. 4933’s mother is a Bismarck that is an own daughter of Green’s Princess, the cornerstone of the Express program. These two are so maternal in their build and design. They are tremendously flat shouldered and huge ribbed for young cattle. These two will be a force to be reckoned with next year in the show ring--especially with a calf on board.

These three females are a result of Blake Nelson talking Jake Scott into consigning a flush out of one of Krebs’ best Angus females into the Denver National Sale. We jumped on the opportunity and purchased the flush. When we called Jake about mating her, he said, “you just need the power from the bull and 9218 will take care of the rest.” When he said that we knew Garth was the bull for the job. We could not be happier with these three full sisters. We spread the eggs out when we put them in so, these three are at different stages of their maturity but, they all are huge footed, sound structured ones that have some power and performance to them. These three are backed by one of the top cows from one of the best Angus programs in the country. If you want to take a step in the right direction into the world of Maine Angus genetics here are three that will take you where you want to go.

The 189 Cow Family has been one of the most consistent in our herd. The Van Vliet family had the 2018 Denver Reserve Champion MaineTainer with a daughter of 189. Furthermore, Jones’ in Ohio had Reserve Division in the spring yearling division with a full sister to Van Vliet’s female at the 2018 NWSS, as well. To have two head, out of one dam, in the champion drive at a major stock show just shows the genetic power of the cow family. These two Bismarck daughters are the next generation of greatness from 189. They are destined for greatness in the show ring. If you like them flat shouldered and angular you will love these two. They are real cowmen kind of cattle.

SUL KATIE BABE
K&A NANNA 344N
Here we have the only two daughters of the Katie Babe Cow Family in the offering. Katie Babe has sure been the most influential MaineTainer cow in the WSCC program to date. She had the top seller at $17,500 in our September online sale that was an older full sister to these two females. Furthermore, the Katie Babe family produced two of the top steers in last year’s Doris cattle sale in South Dakota, selling for $21,500 and $24,000. One of them went on the be Reserve Champion at the Minnesota State Fair. We could go on and on about what this cow has done but, the fact is the genetics are solid. Lots 26 and 27 are young and little green but the pieces are all there and with this cow behind them they will be there in the end.

The Epic cattle have simply taken the nation by storm, especially with Buck’s selling two Epic daughters for over $100,000 apiece. We’ve seen this first hand with the few Epics we’ve had. There’s not a bunch of these Epic cattle roaming the earth and word is that semen production on the bull is limited. Now is a good time to get ahold of the Epic genetics. Lot 28 sure shows why we have loved the Epic’s we have had. Extra long spined and sound at the ground. This one’s mother was a past National Champion Chianina female herself, to make lot 28 solid as a rock on both sides of her pedigree.

The Style cattle are known worldwide for being cool looking show cattle, but this one takes it to a whole new stratosphere. She is ridiculously long necked and complements that with as much center body and rib capacity as you will find in cattle. She’s backed by the 055M Cow Family that produced the Grand and Reserve ChiAngus females and the Fourth Overall Chianina at the 2018 Chianina Junior Nationals. 055M has undeniably become one of the top producers in the Chianina industry, top end genetics and miles of quality sells in this great female.

Sure enough, Todd Caldwell bought one that went on to be champion at the Nebraska State Fair. These cattle are good, solid built cattle that are right for the times.

These two ChiAngus females are bred in the purple. Sired by the popular sire of champions, Colburn’s Primo, and out of the 055M’s most proven daughter, 503U, these two are solid pedigreed cattle. 055M took the 2018 ChiAngus Junior Nationals by storm being the mother of the Grand and Reserve Champion ChiAngus females. These two will be ¾ sibs to the Standridge and Morey heifers from Junior Nationals and they have the same type of upside potential. Furthermore, these two are both high enough percent Chianina that you could breed them to Angus or Maine and you will still bring forward enough Chianina blood to register as high percent Chianina cattle. These two are dual purpose that will work in the show ring and the pasture.

This royal trio in the Hereford division are truly special any way you look at it. Backed by the Harley cow family these cattle are bred to perform in the show ring and in the pasture. Their mother, the Ima cow, a daughter of the immortal About Time himself has raised as many high sellers and champions at Willow Springs as any donor we have. Her best daughter was one of the top selling bred heifers in the Investment Sale last December and prior to that was calf champion at the Kansas City Royal and the Denver Stock Show. These three are full sibs to that winning female that we called Squishy, because of her impeccable extra soft structure. All three of these offer the same upside potential.

They are great numbered cattle that have a show ring look about them and are great haired to boot. These two are built very similar. They are coke bottle necked and huge ribbed cattle with the good running gears underneath of them. They are great colored like the Catapult calves are always known for in the industry. Backed by the Ima cow and the Harley cow families, these two have the power in the blood to increase the quality in your herd.
