Mike, Melinda, Chris, Jesse & Brittany & Avery
Lot 1 Steer I-80 X Simmi Cross This is her first calf and we certainly expect there will be many more in the future! He’s been a standout since day 1 - Steers this good don’t just come along every day! Check him out.
Lot 2 Steer I-80 X Simmi Angus This steer has been Mike’s favorite from day 1! He’s a moderate framed, thick ended calf who has really come on since we weaned him. Young showmen take note here! He has an awesome disposition and really ought to get out and compete!
Lot 3 Steer Unstoppable X Eye Candy X Impulse
This Unstoppable steer is good haired and big boned. Out of a cow we raised who always has a good one for us.
Lot 4 Steer No Worries X Simmi Angus What a cool looking baldie steer! He has a nice look with awesome hair and very sound. We like him more and more everyday. Another awesome disposition here!
Lot 5 Steer Unstoppable X ChiAngus You’re really going to like this one as a fat steer! Not a lot of hair, so what you see is what you get Big butted and big topped!
Lot 6 Steer Unstoppable X Simmi Angus Nice county fair prospect here. Should feed well with lots of depth of body, a nice front and extremely smooth shouldered.
Lot 7 Steer Unstoppable X Simmi Angus This calf just keeps improving and catches our eye more and more. Another Unstoppable with nice lines and a clean underline. Not a lot of hair, but enough spring of rib and depth to feed and show well at the county fair level.
Every accomplishment begins with the decision to try.
Lot 8 Steer Slam Dunk X Chi Maine
Don’t judge this Maine steer solely on his picture he’s better than it shows. He has a nice look with a really square hip.
Lot 9 Steer Slam Dunk X Unstoppable We really like our Slam Dunk calves! Take a look at this great haired, nice looking steer.
Lot 10 Steer Carnac X Crossbred
Lot 11 Steer Good As Gold X LeRoy Brown Lightest calf of the bunch but he has all the pieces to make a SHOW STEER! If you can get the pounds on him, he will be tough to get around. He reminds us of another light steer we sold 4 years ago that did a bit of winning including the Northwest MO State Fair.
This calf didn’t wean off as his momma’s getting older and not milking as well, but he is coming on with feed. If Avery were walking even she could show this calf! Awesome Disposition!
Lot 12 Heifer No Worries X Simmi Cross Pay attention here! We sold a No Worries heifer last year that was successful for the Riley family and now we have another one for you! This one comes from a momma whose cow family has been on the farm for over 10 years! This girl has the look to get you noticed in the ring and not be forgotten and yet is gentle enough anyone can show her.
In the barn day after day, Feedin’, waterin’ & puttin’ out hay. Rinse, brush and blow the right way. Why, some might say? To be my best on show day!
Lot 13 Heifer Money Making Express X Insight X HOLL CC Proven Queen You cannot ask for more out of a 1st calf heifer. We’re really excited about this Angus heifer who is big bellied, rocket fronted and can really get out and move. We showed her mother with a lot of success in the 2014 show season. With her powerful pedigree, we think she’ll be just as successful both in the ring and in the pasture.
Lot 14 Heifer Pays To Believe X Simmi Angus We really like our Pays heifers. He is the most consistent Simmental bull we used and this heifer is a good example of what to expect. Love her profile and you just don’t get a better front on a simmental than this girl has.
Lot 15 Heifer Pays to Believe X Purebred Simmental A big bellied purebred with lots of spring of rib. We hate to sell this one as we no longer have her mother, but we wanted to offer you the very best we have.
Lot 16 Heifer Pays To Believe X Purebred Simmental These Pays heifers are nearly peas in a pod. We can’t say enough good things about them. Another purebred here with lots of style and yet will still make a good breeding piece.
Lot 17 Heifer Fat Butt X Simmi Angus We like this Fat Butt heifer as she will make a bigger cow. We have 3 generations of her cow family so that tells you how impressive her maternal side is. Come take a look at her in person, as we didn’t get a video due to technical difficulties. You won’t be disappointed.
Lot 18 Heifer Good As Gold X Charolais X Chi Check out this cool smoke heifer! Big boned, nice haired out of a great cow. She’s the youngest calf in the offering.
Heifers made to be feminine, functional and fun!
