I'm trying to figure out what to breed my Entourage heifer to.  She's deep ribbed, huge hip, and very free moving.  She has a little leather up front.  I'd like to figure out an easy calving PB Simmy bull that will click on her.  I'd like to stay away from any Dream On influence because...

Anyone have results from Werning's Bull sale?

I have a Monopoly heifer out of a Maine/Angus cross cow that was purchased from Tracy Goretska.  We showed her as a Market Heifer and she won our County Fair Market Heifer show.  I planned on selling her through the fair sale and things didn't work out.  Anyhow, I think she'd make a great cow as...

I've not seen this one mentioned on here, but I always see a ton of EPD threads.  I downloaded an app called Cattle EPDs for my Droid phone the other day.  I just love the thing.  The app gives breed average EPDs for almost all breeds.  Pretty simple idea and you can always find that...

Where does everybody stay when going to the American Royal?  Last year we stayed over by Arrowhead and Kaufman Stadiums.  It seems like everything is over a mile away and the downtown stuff is fairly expensive.  Just curious if the general consensus is to stay 5 miles away or if there's anything...

How's everyones private treaty sales doing?  I've been to a few this year so far and it seems like the prices aren't as strong as I thought they would be.  However, you hear about the $50K calves that are out there.  Just haven't been seeing them myself. Just curious what everyone else is seeing.

I've been approached by a few friends that know nothing about cattle about the possibilities of doing some partnerships or being involved in my cattle business.  I've been turning them down because I really don't want the hassle and have viewed this as a hobby myself, but I'm starting to think I...

What kind of cows is Sherriff Taylor working on?  Also for those of you that have used him, what has been your experience with his birth weights.  I've only seen females - how do the bulls look?  Overall would you use him again? Thanks

I'm annoyed with the topic of Vegetarians right now.  Why is it that when you become a Vegetarian you have to post daily on facebook and feel the need to give everyone an update on how well you feel?  I really could care less.  Perhaps if you didn't eat too much, you would have felt fine eating...

I recently saw a groom chute at a show that was aluminum and hinged to where in one motion you can pop it up into place and put the pins in.  I asked the family that was using it where they got it and they weren't sure.  That they had ordered this with some friends.  I thought I would ask on...

A comment in another thread got me to thinking about this question.  How many of you club calf breeders have kids that show?  If so, how do you handle competing against your customers?  I'm just curious.  I know that has to be balancing act and I"m just curious how some of you handle it.

Jason, Is there any way that we could have the ability to mark a topic or save a topic for later reference?  I know that you can search for them but just wondering if there's an easier way that could be developed.  I have several that I refer back to from time to time and I hate searching for...

Anyone know anything about the Simmy bull Lock N Load?  He should have calves coming on the ground this year.  Looks like he took a good picture.  I saw that in the Simmental Register.  Plus he's a complete outcross to a lot of the popular Simmy bulls.  Anyhow just curious if anyone has used him...

Does anyone know if the pictures from Denver are online somewhere?  Thanks

Looking for a Purebred Simmy heifer to show at Junior Nat'ls and a few jackpots.  We have a Foundation heifer already purchased that we'll be showing as well.  Needs to be competitive.  I'm located in Iowa and don't want to have to travel too far.  I'm open to partnering if the heifer and the...

Anyone have the full results to the Divas and Donors sale?  Thanks!

Anyone go down to the American Royal Simmy show?  How'd the Simmy show prospects look?  Any of them stand out?

We have a few Angus heifers and breds for sale.  Sires are Stockman 365, Northern Improvement, and Power Design.  A few of the breds would make excellent clubby mammas.  Hope to get a few pictures up.  For the mean time, here's one of the breds pictured at the beginning of summer out of Stockman...
