Al Dirksen has a couple of nice heifers in the sale that would be worth checking out if anbody is interested.
Also, while you are in the area, Scott Hillman, Dunbar, Nebraska, has 5 percentage heifers priced cheap & he might be able to deliver... possibly for gas $$. All priced under $900. Two of them might be sold already. One is a red roan 1/4 Lowline X 3/4 Shorthorn (Gizmo dam). 4 are halfbloods. 2 are broke & have already been shown successfully. Perfect for the 1st time show person. Sired by a blue roan full brother to Bruzer, the 2008 National Champion Bull. Dam's are mostly Rocking J genetics, with some Shorthorn & Simmi too. Scott raised a heifer last year that was 2nd in class to the NAILE Supreme Champion, so he has some pretty good stuff. He also beat the National Champion Female at a Show a few years ago. He also has a purebred heifer sired by Fairlawn's Rebel out of a dam that was 3rd overall JR Owned Exhibit at the 09 NAILE for under $900. BTW, Scott raised the dam of that lot 24 bull that somebody was touting in another thread... & he also used to own the sire of lot 24 too. Give Scott a call at... 402-690-0746 for a real good deal on some good genetics in the Midwest! You will be hard pressed to find a better deal on some good cattle.
