A few oldies to consider in a few breeds L1 Domino Pine Drive Big Sky Enforcer 107H Justa Banner Ildeno - probably the first great club calf sire Scotch Cap Schearbrook Shoshone

By now you know I admit I'm biased, but the Leader bull that we own with Justintime is quickly proving to be a great heifer bull.  Calves are coming easily with great vigor and all are polled - we think he has a great chance of being homozygous polled.  Enough style for the show ring, but the...

  You've got the wrong bull - the Gus was lot 81. Lot 83 was the loud colored Solution out of Jane Mary.  I don't have my catalog handy but I think the Gus bull brought $6500

A number of years ago we were at our state Agribition in early March.  On Friday it started snowing and by the time we got up Saturday we had one of the worst snow/ice storms ever.  Snow had blown in the barns and cattle in tie outs looked like snow statutes until they shook the snow off.  Since...

Thanks!!  We're very pleased with the calves we've had. Although they are limited in number there is a certain consistency we appreciate - especially in their skeleton.  All are very sound.  I was home for Christmas and the two heifers pictured are still getting better.  The July is going to be...

We might let one go, but not both! <cowboy>

We continue to be very satisfied with Leader as a calving ease sire. To date all calves have come unassisted and only one has been over 80 lbs.  What's starting to get us even more excited is the way the calves develop.  Below are two Leader heifer calves that we really like - the roan is a May...

Scott, I'd be interested to know if there were any 23G dams represented, as we found these cattle to be among the best feeding cattle we ever owned.  I don't know if you knew it, but several years ago when we had 23G, we ended up with a steer calf at Rex Tribbett's that he added to his Indiana...

I would think your experience would be accurate. We own Massive's maternal brother - Matador - and we're seeing the exact same thing with these calves.  The only 90 lb. + calves we've had were out of big BW cows that have always had big calves.  But the big selling point for us is the "get up...

While we're obviously biased, to date Leader has done everything we hoped - low birth weights, very healthy vigorous calves at birth and it looks like they will grow adequately - in short, he's what we expect a calving ease bull to be.  We've only had one calf over 80 pounds and it was 10 days...

It used to happen frequently - there were a number of good judges who had backgrounds in either the commercial sector or the feedlot/packing business.  The best I know in that group was Dick Jurgens - he judged every major steer show in the country, including Louisville and Denver, and did a...

Now that's the bottom line!!

Great looking calf!!! I think I might be able to address the issue you raise regarding your experience with semen sales on roan bulls and I'm sure you've already thought of it - it's the show ring.  There is an incredible demand for a Shorthorn bull that's TH/PHA free, extra thick, deep, sound...

We're bringing three lots (27,28 and 29) to the sale.  All three heifers are very good but the 28 heifer is really exceptional.  She's been the pick of every viistor to the farm this spring and looks like she will be able to compete at a pretty decent level.  If you still need a spring yearling...

Last chance to order semen for spring delivery.  We've collected a reasonable inventory of very high quality semen, but he soon on his way to Canada and we won't be collecting him again for a while

John,  As one who works with college students everyday, let me offer my sincerest thanks for this great offer!!  The single biggest limiter to people pursuing a college degree is cost, so you are addressing a critical need. Many thanks and best wishes!! Joe

Do you have Thornwood Major and Clark?  Both bulls were dual purpose Shorthorns sired by Scottshill Major Clark (as was Pomona - the sire of Trudeau).  The old Clark bull was owned by Graham Land and Livestock, MN, and was the sire of many great females in the late 70's-early 80's.  He sired our...

We've got 5 females going to the Blue Ridge Classic Sale in South Carolina on May 1st.  4 are Shorthorns and 1 Shorthorn Plus.  In this group, there's one bred heifer and 4 opens. The open heifers can be shown and there's heifers in this group that can compete in a lot of shows.  If you've got...
