Does anyone have a sale summary from Waukaru's sale this past weekend.  I looked on Live Auctions and they don't have it up. Thanks!

Here's three of our fall calves we've finished weaning.  The bull is a Hillside Leader out of a Muridale Buster daughter.  The two heifers are both Ace of Diamonds.  All three are September - early October.

We're really pleased to have recently added SBF Patent Pending to our herd.  Out of Waukaru Patent 8161 and the dam of Osage, he offers calving ease with exceptional growth. Bred for the beef industry, he's sound enough and well made to compete in the show ring.  He just made it home to...

Not sure if I should have posted this in JiT’s bull sale post or in the “Schrag bull” post below, but since the topic of calving ease and birth weight is running through both threads and it’s that time of year for most of us, I’ll thought I’d just start a new one here. When you bring up the...

We’re pleased to announce the sale of ½ interest and possession in our Hillside Leader bull to Justintime and Horseshoe Creek Farms, Weyburn, Sask.  Grant and I are really excited about the tremendous potential this young bull has to offer and appreciate all the comments and observations many of...

We're currently offering semen on our new calving ease sire, Hillside Leader; owned with Grant Alexander, Horseshoe Creek Farms, Weybern, SK.   Leader is a November 2007 son of ArSuLu Matador (DFS Riders Eagle “Tex” X ArSuLu Missie 709) and out of a straight Elbee-bred daughter of the immortal...

In a couple of weeks I'm looking to have a bull hauled from central Illinois (near Springfiled) to either Nichols or Hawkeye for collection.  Can anyone recommend anyone who might be able to make that trip on relatively short notice? Thanks!

I've decided to change the photo in my avatar and you guys get to vote.  Pick the one you like - you can comment if you choose and we'll see which one goes up. Thanks!! <cowboy> OOPS!  I realized I had the wrong picture as # 1.  Unfortunately it moved it to number 4. Now I'm confused.

In the classified section I've posed an ad offerring semen on the Hillside Leader bull that many of you have inquired about.  The regular price on semen will be $25 per straw and $25 per certificate with special pricing for volume orders.  On the ad we're offerring a 10% discount on all orders...

What direction is your breeding program going? Are you tired of the bulls that offer the same genetics in a new and improved “package”? Finding that “powerful performance” often comes with high birth weights and calving problems? Do you want a bull that looks better on pasture than he does...

Thanks to everyone who has inquired about the bull calf we posted pictures of last fall.  He's continued to do well and we've got him running with some heifers - cleaning up after AI.  Since several of you have asked about him, I thought I put up a couple of pics taken today.  Any and all...

Just saw on the ASA site that TM Gus was named Grand Champion bull in Denver today.  Great job Stumpy - he sure looked good in Louisville and I'm glad you stayed with him.  Tell Twig I'll buy him a beer the next time I see him!! Females show tomorrow - but if the Junior Show was any indication...

As many of you know several years ago I coached a successful college judging team and a meat animal elevation team.  For those who aren’t familiar with meat animal evaluation, it’s the prediction, based on live evaluation, of an animal’s carcass and economic merit - or as I used to tell my teams...

After this week’s rain bypassed us again – we’ve had less than 1.5” for the month of July – our pastures are almost gone.  As a result we’re forced to reduce the herd and will be offering 12-15 cows for sale.  Included in this group are two coming 2-year old heifers and mature cows from 3-9...

Gary and Lee, I promised to post a picture of the November bull calf I told you about, so here you go.  The first picture is just as Dad is getting ready to slip a halter on him – great disposition!  The second is one that’s a little better.  He’s a Matador (Tex X Missie 709) out of a Gizmo. ...

In a number of posts under a couple of other topics, there is quite a discussion of type and kind – and the difference between show cattle and “real world’ cattle.  Many good ideas and opinions have been posted and I promised I was going to stay out of the fray… but those of you who know me know...

We have 3 fall 2006 K-Kim Exhibit (Vortec X K-Kim CJ) daughters, all bred to Ar Su Lu Matador for Jan-Feb 09 calves. Priced individually or as a group - 1 heifer - $1500, 2-$2850 or all three for $4000.  A very good set of half sisters to start a herd with or add some predictable genetics from...

We all like to see the "little ones" so here's one we like - he's a March Salute.  We were going to keep him as a bull prospect, but when Salute went to a +9 on BW we're thinking about steering him. He's probably a little big for a club steer but he has a great hip and top.

My niece and nephew have decided they want to show 2 calves each this year - AFTER we had decided on one each and started them on feed.  Today I roughed out two that might work and I want your opinions.  The big one is a Feb 07, CF Correct daughter out of a Sonny cow, the little one that's just...

Doc, How was the sale Saturday?  I know you had a good looking heifer calf in the sale and the Martindell catle looked pretty salty.  How did the day go?  (cow)
