Spoken like a true Sunglo dealer. I think I learned the perason square my first day of freshman ag and probally haven't thought about it since. Not to make any of you "old" folks jealous but that was only 15 years ago.

Right now I would say the political posts are more relevant to cattle then posts like: e-scrabble, what we are going to be for Halloween, or even who the greatest bull ever was. In these times having legislation that could cripple the cattle industry is not that far fetched. So, being educated...

There has been a influx of "high rollers" in the breed over the last few years. My concern is their commitment to real breed improvement over the long haul or if they will even stay in for the long haul. IMO there has been a disturbing lack of gentic diversity in the top sales over the past few...

She looks like a good one no matter when her daddy was born. It is definitely a interesting cross being out of a Blueprint daughter. These are the kind of genetics that draw me to the sale there is alot of outcross pedigrees that are still outstanding individuals. Not the same five bulls and cow...

Good luck with the sale I think that it is the most under rated sale in the breed. It always seems like every lot has a super pedigree and is a quality lot. Also the consignors are some of the best. You also brought back a blast from the past for me as we bred lot 36. She is out of Tartan...

1. Bareback riding; I have bullriding friends who are afraid to ride bareback horses 2. Curling; a big rock and some brooms, I don't get it. any canucks feel free to explain the appeal 3. Golf; who would put themselves through the aggravation of hitting a tiny ball with a skinny stick into a...

If you are wanting to put eggs in, in the spring wait until then to buy cows with calves on their side. You can go to purebred sales and find pairs with calves on their side that have calved long enough ago to work in your ET program. Alot of commercial oriented breeders have "out to grass"...

We need some of the canucks to chime in. When I had all my canuck roomates in college there were to many different names of items to remember. Some of my favorites were instead of going to the strip club they went to the peelers. Almost all brown liquor was called rye. A six pack was called a...

How about tea and sweet tea. Go south of the Mason Dixion and you better make sure you specify what you want if you are lucky enough to find plain tea. Sorry shortdawg but sweet tea is for sure an acquired taste. We also had some people down from Minnesota a few years ago who had never heard of...

As usual there are 2 sides to every story. Before we get to hard on the carcass ability of the "showsteers" remember there can be numerous phenotype issues with more "commercial" looking cattle. In theory you could get a 3 legged steer to grade choice with enough TLC. Should he be able to place...

If at first you don't succeed, lower your standards.

Finally sat down and really studied the catalog and I really like the looks of the Shalimar cows and the epd's on lot 21. These cows might be to big for your neck of the woods from the pics but are some of my favorites. I wish I had customers who wanted to buy heterosis instead of sell it so I...

I can't remember tag numbers but Bob had a super stout steer there that I really liked (I think he was the high seller at $3,600). I was also impressed with a few of Rusty's heifers. Like I said before nothing that would go out and win a state fair but a bunch of calves that will turn out really...

We have 2 shorthorn cows and 400 eggs in the tank. God bless cooperator herds.

I have a two year old daughter and a 8 year old son. So far they both like pigs better then the cattle but you got to start somewhere.

I grew up 5 minutes from all of those guys so I haven't missed a sale yet. I would have to say this was the best set of calves yet and the sale is steadily improving. It is a great place to pick up a competitive calf for a good price from a great set of people.

Just wanted to let everybody know we have sold the Augusta Pride cow, but still have Fancy and Quantum Gal left. I have attached pictures of both. Fancy is the red cow on the bottom of the first scan. She has alittle more age since the picture but has a nice heifer calf at side and produced 14...

Since I know you I can say with all certainty I don't even want to see pictures of you with your clothes on. ;D By the way are you putting anything in the KBE?

How about lot 1. Our full sister to her dam died this spring at 14 years old.
