Kelly Catalog

Friday, January 29, 3pm At the farm • Dallas Center, IA Dear friends and cattle enthusiasts, On behalf of Kelly Cattle Company and Blueprint Cattle Company, I would like to extend a warm welcome to the 12th Annual Right Direction Female and Bull Sale. We take great pride in breeding and producing females and bulls that will add value to your program. It is truly humbling to see how many of our buyers come back and purchase additional genetics from us. We work hard to breed genetics that perform at a high level of profitability in our customers’ herds. Our goal is straightforward and simple. We strive to provide you with predictable, maternal genetics that are versatile in their kind and add to your operation’s bottom line profitability. We don’t breed for extremes, but rather breed for middle-of-the-road cattle that are easy fleshing, good-structured individuals that are heavily muscled, big bodied, and sound. We breed for that show ring look and for cattle that will lay down and have calves that are better than their individual mothers. These are genetics that have proven to be very profitable for our customers and for our own operations. I feel confident that we have a set of cattle in this sale that will fit yours needs, whether you are a club calf producer, have a purebred program, or are a commercial cattleman. These are time-tested genetics that have worked in many programs. I would like to thank everyone that is involved in making this operation work. It is great to have Wade Conover here on a day-to-day basis to help me make it through the grind of AIing, calving, and marketing our cattle. I am blessed to have our friends and family to guide us and truly be there for us. I mean that with all my heart. Please look in the back of the catalog for the featured success stories of our customers from their past year of sales. I am thrilled just how good of a job these females are doing for their new owners. As always, it is a pleasure to work with you and to help you with your purchasing needs. We thank you for your business and the interest in our program. Sincerely,

Ben Kelly
