Local county fair three years ago...young lady just off the state U judging team.  Breeding heifer championship drive...talked the Hereford, and ended with "...after all, she is just a Hereford."  I actually didn't hear it, but, being a 4-H council member, heard plenty about it afterward.  We...

Couple comments. Bill did show Steel Force at least once as a yearling...saw him at the Nebraska State Fair that year.  SF was a very moderate, sound made long yearling bull.  No real holes, but not overly powerful in any way either.  Certainly have to respect the way that he matured though...

Yes, CAB...that is the bull. I've seen his offspring in person at a couple sales, but I was curious what others are seeing across the country.

Curious what commercial breds are selling for in other parts of the country.  Our local salebarn had their first special bred sale on Monday of this week.  Bred heifers ranged from $1350 to $1840.  At $1800, there will be well over $2000 in those pairs by the time they go to grass next...

Jamie... Suppose you had Kay slaving away while you were messing with the camera! Things look good up your way!

Apalling that nothing was done 10 plus years ago to stop this.  I always saw JoePa as a man of integrity that everyone could look up to.  Now I see him as trash.  The fact that he knew about this and essentially "allowed" it to continue by not going to the law is unbelievable. The Regents...

Would like to hear people's opinions of the Domination (Simmental) calves that they've seen this fall?

Curious as to everyone's thoughts on the sales where cattle don't come through the ring, only being presented on video? I know this is much easier to pull off than a conventional-type sale, however I am not a fan.  I like to see the animal that I am bidding on in the ring.  As a sale consultant...

I was at the sale as well.  Thought it went pretty well from top to bottom.  I liked the lot 14; she was a powerhouse.  If not for the extra front, she'd have been the cat's meow!  As a group, I also thought that the group of Entourage litter-mates were a nice bunch.  Everything was...

PM sent.

Anyone need a group of  bull calves to develop and make some money on? These are Simmental & Sim-Angus, with a couple Red Angus bulls in the group.  Most are younger calves compared to their contemporaries.  Good pedigrees, performance and eye appeal.  Average adjusted weaning weight on this...

Looking for JF Milestone 999w semen for a few flushes. Please let me know via PM  if you have any available. Thanks.

Very strong sale with lots of high prices...The Built Right sired donor cow sold for $80,000!

Congrats...pretty good feeling when the flushes come in even better than you are hoping for.

Built Right...he'd smoke on that cow!  My only concern would be too much white popping up with the Macho/Meyer also in the background.... What is the controversy with Grandmaster?  Still talking about the deal with his numbers? thanks. 

The page that I looked at showed Style as a 2.1 on birth...which would be considered marginal to use on a heifer in alot of circles...Though is would be a swell mating for this purpose. Two proven heifer bulls that we've had great luck with are SAV Final Answer & SAV Bismarck...some of our best...

Just north of Silver Creek; sale ends next Tuesday.  http://www.showsteers.com/Frenzen/Calves%20for%20Sale.htm

In a similar situation with a buyer from our sale this spring.  For about 3 months after the sale, I was being promised checks.  After text messages started going unanwered about mid summer, I decided to go a stop further.  In late August, I talked to his banker (lien search revealed where he...

Thanks all for the welcome....It was certainly...not fun! On that regard, I'll give a novice take on both teams in that game. Start with the winners.  Wisconsin has a pretty darn good offense.  Their line does a solid job, with a couple pretty swell running backs.  The receivers will hold...

I posed the following question to one of the club calf world icons a few years ago... "If I want to breed some of our Simmental cows to bulls to make show steers for the kids and females worthy of replacements, with no cripples or monster calves, what would your bull of choice be?"  Pretty...
