I find it particularly impressive that a female this maternal bred can be so wide behind her blade, crisp over her loin edge, and carry her width down the seat of her pants to the surface. A coming 4-year-old that is just entering the prime of her life and ready to get to work for you.

Truly impressive specimen to look at here in 271. A High Maine female that offers so many desired traits for producing elite Maine Anjou cattle that work inside and outside of the show ring. Show winning look up front, wide from the top of her blade to her pinset, tremendously bold and soft in her rib cage, dense in the seat of her pants, and plants on remarkable bone and foot size. Mother of 271 claimed Reserve Champion honors at OYE a handful of years back, and I expect nothing more than the continuation of excellence out of her young daughter. Coming four years old, this female is ready to get to work and be the difference you’ve been searching for in your program.

If you know me well, you know I love these short backed, chubby made females that offer intense muscularity behind their blade and in the seat of their pants. Truly impressive how this young cow can combine that much look up front with so much power in the rear two-thirds of her skeleton. 883 commands sale feature status when you study her tremendous bone work and analyze her feet that perfectly stride every time. This is the kind I shouldn’t be letting go, but when you come to town you need to bring your very best.

This young donor, in her first IVF cycle, had a 45,000 dollar high seller in 2024 sired by Here I Am. These Monopoly cows are flat raising the kind of cattle that win at every level and the build of 0172 will compliment the leading sires of the industry in 2025. We offer here a proven young donor backed by a cow family that is drenched in consistency and quality. These opportunities do not come around all the time. To have the best sale, you have to offer the best. 0172 comes from deep within the heart of the Vanhove program. We have the utmost faith in her powerful generating abilities.

It’s not very often we offer a cow like this, but we want to give someone the opportunity to elevate their program by putting this one at the top of their donor pen. She is extremely successful on the maternal end and paternal end. In last year’s sale her daughter, Lot 180, was a sale feature selling for $50,000.

Chubby, clubby look in this HGTA bred out of the famous Kelli Clone 75-1. You’ll tie in to her super moderate frame and appreciate her front third, bone and butt all fit together perfectly.

We’ve talked about the Kelli Clone 75-1 to a few different sires, but here’s a solid black one out of MAB for your approval. She has that long pretty neck like most of the MABs and is super moderate with plenty of bone that matches her frame size. To me, the fact that she is smaller made opens up options to matings that will complement her feminine features and get a little bump of power from the bull side. I’m pumped to see who gets the chance to own this one.

Long necked, flat shouldered female this is comfortable in her shoulder and knee design, tremendous in her rib cage, long and square in her hip design, and plants a flexible hock securely on big feet. A little different mating than you’re used to seeing out of this cow, but the quality remains the same!

Here’s some things you need to know about this really good Maternal Made. She is a full sister in blood to the incomparable RCC 1 Donor, and I have sold a bunch of sibs out of the Kelli Clone Donor for a lot of money, so I have no doubt that this heifer will not only continue but expand upon that tradition. As expected from the pedigree, this heifer has a little more maternal punch than her sibs. That opens up more mating options to continue to make popular Maine cattle that will win in the showring and in the pasture. This one is the real deal. $57,000 HALF INTEREST SISTER

Excellent cattle in the way she combines a zipper throat and tidy chest with a wide back and robust rib cage. Incredibly wide pinned cattle that’s dense in the seat of her pants and excels in terms of bone and foot size.

Yes, you’re reading correctly. A sister to the legendary 1244 donor will be gracing the sale ring of Sioux Falls Regional on January 1st. The legacy 1244 has created for herself is nothing short of a dream come true, so I found it only necessary to share the same opportunity with our unbelievable customer base that has made this sale a truly premiere event. A younger female that’s behind the bunch on body condition, it’s impossible not to notice 472’s quality. Elegant in her front-end design, short spined, meaty behind her blade, wide pinned, spread to the surface, and impeccable lower joints. Don’t hesitate to jump at this opportunity, as it will not come around every day!

You’ll like every one set of breds in the sale out of the Kelli Clone 75-1. This one takes the clubby look and stature to a little different level with her mass and thickness. She is extra wide over her rib and back into her top. You need to watch her move away from you to get the full appreciation of just how wide she is. The speck of white enhances her look, and with future matings, can be an asset. You need to own one (or more) of these out of 75-1.

This female is so incredibly crisp over the edge of her loin, long in her hip design, wide in her pinset, dense through her quarter and stifle, and has the best hind leg that you will watch walk through the sale arena in Sioux Falls.

This half blood female has show heifer generating potential written all over her.

The craze of Next Level sired SimGenetic cattle continues to sweep the nation as daughters are winning shows across the nation and are kicking it out of the park in production. This female is a maternal sister to the $17,500 daughter of Rocking P Private Stock H010 that was purchased by the Purvis family in the 2023 ‘The Black Label’ and is bound for big things as a donor cow for their program.

For the last several years, I’ve had the opportunity to hand pick a set of heifer calves out of the heart of the herd of Merle and Tucker Morris in Montana. They have funneled Maine heifers into the Griswold, Buck and Boddicker sales and cow herds. I feel very fortunate to have the privilege to be a part of this as well.

The Morris’ herd has put selection pressure on a cow herd to make them super efficient and incredibly sound. This heifer is the prototype that they (and I) hope to produce. Great heifer from a great outfit.

I almost forgot to mention that she is coming with a May We All heifer calf that I’m betting you’ll like a lot!

Of the Montana origin heifers, this is the royally bred genetic package of the bunch. Epic is established as a female maker, and he put that punch in this heifer for sure. She’s bigger topped than most and softer made. Out of a Whiskey Dam makes them sound and pretty. Good combination on this cool female.

I like the type of this Garth granddaughter a lot. She has that exceptional cow look that is essential in making quality progeny. Flat necked, beautiful fronted, and then transitions so nicely through her rib and hip. You can make a herd around this kind of cattle that will produce Maine breeding stock or quality club calves. Lots of options.

This heifer originated out of the Morris herd as well, and she would be one of the more moderate of that group. One of the appeals of the Morris genetics is that they have more Irish Whiskey daughters than anyone this side of Griswolds!

So know that breds like this one come from a herd that is dedicated to selection pressure and quality genetics to make each generation of cattle better.

Sorry that I didn’t get a picture of this one, you sure need to see how good she is.

This solid red female is built like I strive to produce for clubby mamas. I love her color!! A “no holes” heifer that is the right size, good fronted, and super sound.

There’s not many of these cherry red girls in the sale, so get after this good one.

Don’t ignore her!

Here’s a very pretty blonde baldy. She is so petite in her head and neck, but is super big bodied from there back. I have sold three brothers to this IGWT female that have averaged more than $30,000, so there is all kinds of steer power here as well. Her family resume is impressive, and you need to own her. Can’t wait to see the Jackie Moon calf she’s bringing to Sioux Falls!

There’s a whole pen of these May We All future mommas, and they are difficult to tell apart, a testament to his ability to consistently stamp the cow look into his female offspring. Of them, this one has a bit more middle and turn and shape to her top…..but boy that’s nit-picking to find differences to talk about. If you want to leave Sioux Falls with a set of maternal masterpieces to jump start your herd, buy a bunch of these May We Alls!!

SPRING 2024 • MAINETAINER • THF SIRE: PATRÓN • DAM: MATERNAL PERFECTION PE: MAY WE ALL SON • DUE DATE: 4/10/26

We only had a one day window to get pictures and videos done and just flat ran out of daylight to get everybody done. I think she is a high quality Angus prospect that fits the mold of Angus cattle that I want to bring to the First Class Sale.

It will be worth your time to find in the yards. She is ultra deep and soggy middled with plenty of power down her top to make purple producing show heifers.

You decide, but she has the look that you could think about making some good Maine Angus or halfblood Simmys that would add to her resume as a donor!!

BLACK BALDY MAINETAINER • THF SIRE: PEACE OF MIND • DAM: FAIR N SQUARE AI: 5/10 MAY WE ALL • PE: MAY WE ALL SON • DUE DATE: 2/16 AI SAFE

Took a page out of the Rob VanHove playbook here and brought you a good Patrón daughter. There have been a pile of these Patróns sold over the years at our combination sale, and the crazy repeat demand for them tells me that they are getting the job done as Club Calf producing cows. Here’s another super cowy looking one to add to that list of successes.

Here’s a black baldy with a little extra chrome thrown in! She’s the perfect frame size to keep offspring chubby and moderate. There will be a bunch of these good heifers in Sioux Falls you can use to build a herd nucleus of good ones that’ll make some money. Please note that she has a May We All heifer calf on board!!

This good cream colored IGWT heifer has a little extra maturity and plenty of Char power!! She may be the biggest topped, most massive of the colored cattle in the sale. Super big boned and stout made. Coming with a Lovin’ Size calf will add earning potential to this really good package! Predictable genetics!!

This black and white heifer is certainly typey and made to produce steers. You have to have the extra width and natural spread that this heifer displays in order to get offspring that makes competitive and marketable steers…and market heifers. I like her extra bone, and she has super shaggy leg hair. There’ll be plenty of matings that will keep a little chrome and make them good out of this great heifer. Coming with a May We All steer, so payday isn’t too far away.

The only Life’s a Trip heifer in my offering, and she is truly a trip! I like the look starting with clean throated and sharp necked and upheaded. If you need one that will bring some bone and structure to the next set of calves, this white heifer fits the bill.

Sexed Fireman would appear to be the perfect mating on this orange colored heifer. I brought a half dozen of these colored females to Sioux falls, and they are all similarly stamped. Big bodied, good fronted and extra good structurally. This one is has an advantage in front end structure and look, but you choose which one you like the best or take ‘em all!!

I have liked this orange and white cow prospect all along.

You talk about a southern steer maker, here she is!! Huge top and extra wide behind. The first time mating to Jackie Moon could be magical and be an indicator of future matings. This one is intriguing!

Yet another daughter out of a proven cow family that has maternal genetics galore. The Forbes Angus sire influence is a trusted way to get fertility and predictable power into your cow herd. With Who Da Man on the cow side, making some Chi eligible breeding cattle is a viable option here as well. Her shoulder design and front end is what sells her but still reads with plenty of mass and volume to make great cattle.

One of the real complete Char influenced females in the offering. The smokey heifer has lots of mass and power especially as you watch her move away. Big top and big hip and yet is exceptional in the set to her hock and pastern. Study her pedigree, and you’ll catch that the great Charlene cow is part of the reason you’ll like her, too. Likely coming with a Lovin Size heifer calf that will bring immediate return to this investment.

BLACK & WHITE • SIRE: MAN AMONG BOYS • DAM: HOLY SMOKER AI: 6/21 MAY WE ALL • PE: MAY WE ALL SON • DUE DATE: 3/30 AI SAFE

Here’s a Shorthorn marked Perfection daughter that has such a nice look. Upheaded, impeccable front third, smooth shouldered that sure makes her a maternal option, but then is big hipped and lower stifle begs to breed her for a breed steer. I think there are breeding options galore on this red one. Either way, buy her!!

Here’s some attention grabbing chrome on a good MAB sired bred. Study her rib shape and perfect structure, and she is super level out over her hip. Breed her to black clubby bulls to calm down the color or get creative with a colored up mating to get something super noticeable. You decide, but either way this one is just flat good and will be fun to genetically mess with in the future.

This big robust white female will be a great addition to any herd. She’ll raise quality show steers that have a soft easy feeding look to them. let her be the one to advance your program. Be sure to look her up sale day!

The maternal design is so right on this lady. She profiles beautifully and is so nice in her head, neck and shoulder set. She gets really bold from her rib back and is level in her lines both across her top and undercarriage as well. Maybe the coolest thing about her is coming with a Data Maker heifer calf that will likely carry on the cow quality of this girl.
