• Well I am really proud to have owned this great Steel Force cow but we have decided to sell her and let her new owners in on a very productive female. I bought Untold Lady from Foster Brothers and Shipman in 2008 with Harness Farms. We then sold part to Colton Griswold and she had a very successful show career. O96U has been flushed several times averaging 8 embryos per flush. That’s the reason you can sell a young donor when they are productive. I have owned several Steel Force cows, but this one might be my favorite.

Make sure to come take a look. A vet knows a problem free cow and this is Tara’s favorite.

Check out her picture and video. This heifer will compete anywhere you want to show her. Then backed by the Scheetz 76 and 9093 cow families. It looks like an easy choice to look this one up.

Not sure which one of these heifers is the best so we will let you be the judge on October 26th. They are different from one another but both awesome. 2Z and 263Z are big time March show heifers. Worth the trip to West Point, Iowa to see heifers like these.

• One of the first Entourage calves ever to it the ground was Maddie May, my daughters first show heifer and full sib to Revival,Inspiration, and Dilemma. This mating has never disappointed us and is the stand by when it comes to implanting eggs selection.”Oh My” has been in our IVF program to utilize our Entourage sex semen and the results are unchaining. These big body, soft made heifers are as sound as they come. Stacked with performance these cattle will produce off spring that are not only functional but also marketable. Take a look at the Crochet heifer for a little insight of what these there girls could do for you. Back to basic on the heritage and you will find the Jewell M3 cow once again. Help yourself to the heart of our genetic base here at Lone Tree Simmental.

We are so impressed with this matting and how consistent these cattle are time after time that Stiletto was entered in our IVF program, and coughed up 40 Oocytes while still maintaining a pregnancy that is due in February. You will be hard pressed and drive a lot of miles to find a red heifer as good as this one. Once again Sensual goes back to that War Nitro x Jewell M3 matting that stands the test of time.

• Heiress is another heifer that we are offering that is free from the Dream On blood-lines. Personally I would love to see. Entourage mated to Heiress for her first calf. Heiress’ dam Jewell Too is a flush mate to Essence, and Stiletto. As you can see this cow family will work every time when matted to Entourage. Once again as you can see from our offering all these high quality heifers have one common denominator in the Jewell M3 cow,the corner stone of our donor pen.

• Here is a half-blood heifer right out of our state fair show string. This April heifer is one of the youngest calf in the sale so be sure not to overlook her.

Crochet is jet fronted thick enough and exceptional on her feet and leg and has that perfect stride to compete for the purple banner. We have raised some pretty good SimAngus heifers in the past but this one would have to be one of our favorites. Crochet linkage goes back to the Jewel cow the same genetic base as Essence and Stiletto. Moreover Crochet dam Maddie May was one of the first Entourage cows born and was a member of our Royal and Denver strings, Entourage cattle can compete on the tan bark and producer your next winner.

• Our Maid to Order cow is the matriarch of our donor pen. Maid to Order had one of the most successful show careers of any cow we have ever been associated with. We have focused our attention on how to make the best replacement female in of herd utilizing her genetics. Many of the open heifers in this sale will go back to her. We chose Voyager as the sire of choice this time as the progeny will be free of any Dream on blood lines while back crossing Avalanche through Summer Sister, our ultimate goal is to come back with Entourage on this matting. Pregnancy is due January 26, 2013, and is in a certified commercial Red Angus; two year olds from the Dakotas.

On another note, having Antoinette and Maid to Order in her linkage is not a bad situation. Look for this heifer to do big things in the future. No Dream On in this pedigree, and we think Entourage would make great matting.

• Embellished is best described as a power heifer. She is fast growing, deep body, and stout from end to end. However, she still retains that long feminine neck. Embellished is straight out of our Iowa state fair show string. Her full sister Faithful is part of our 2011-2012 show string.

Both heifers are so impressive that we entered their dam Giggles into our IVF program this past year. This should come as no surprise since the common denominator of this family tree is Drake Maid To Order, our foundation of the donor pen.

Moco’s first calf “Drama” won the bull show at the Iowa State fair and was immediately lease to Accelerated Beef Genetics and is a calving ease specialist. Moco’s second achievement was last year when we won the pen of three in Denver. All three heifers were out of Moco, one of them “Discovery” is a full sib to Vintage and Allure and is now placed at the Big M Ranch in Iowa. As an added bonus Moco has 3 sibling that were also National al Champion, Entourage, Shania, and Radiance. Even though War Diva has passed, her linkage lives on through these two heifers; Help yourself to one of the best cow families in the Simmental breed.

• Here is a stout, big body, slick neck 3/4 blood heifer. Smolder, Endeavor dam was the 2005 Reserve National Champion low percent female. This Voyager daughter will be just as competitive as her Entourage sisters that we sold last year. Endeavor is void of any Dream On in her pedigree and will give her new owners a wide variety of sir selection. Smolder is the real deal consistently producing high quality cattle no matter who she is breed to. Her flush to Walks Alone has produced a sale topping steer and the Entourage flush produced a class winner at Denver last year. Another great genetic opportunity for someone to buy and carry on a great cow family.

• Here is the kind of half blood female we strive to produce; she is moderate, big middle, eye appealing and sound as a cat. Her grandmother is the $38,000 valued OBCC Wicked Sister 402T. Her maternal brother was the high selling half blood bull in our Spring sale.

She ranks in the top 20% for birth weight and MCE.

• Wow! Not sure how else to start this foot note, C23Z has been one of the most favored half bloods all summer long. Her dam is the $40,000 full sister to Connealy Dateline and a foundation donor at Busted P Angus now. C23Z is a white faced picture of excellence, she is flawless structured, and soft middled, and has the future donor look.

• This is the first time we used Payday to produce half-blood heifers and man did he hit on the Red Top cow. Accent is super correct in her angles, and carries a big hip. Every one that sees her cannot believe she is a half-blood because of how powerful she is. And like most Red Top breeding she will grow into that front end of what little she has.

Big time Foundation female here, this one is as good as we have ever raised.

Bling is incredibly deep side and soft footed with a killer look. If you want to know what kind of cow she will make, then take a look at her donor dam Nautica below as Lot 22. I really hate to let this one go and I know my kids are going to remind of it for years to come. This one is kid gentle.

W135 on the dam side is from the same family as Bill Couch’s SVF Dream Master bull plus she sells bred to Rendition for a January calf. Ask Andy VanArenam how many Ever Ready females he has and how many dollars worth bulls he sells out of them. W135 goes back to a Powerline on the dams side bred to Rendition for a January. I know I will be kicking myself when she has a baldy in January but we decided to sell the best ones so good luck!

Presenting Fall 2012 EPDs on a New Base...

The Fall 2012 ASA Genetic Evaluation marks the first time major breeds have expressed their EPDs on a common base (i.e., the same scale). The common base was a natural evolution for the RAAA/ASA genetic evaluation partnership. Though forming a common base will initially lead to some confusion, the boards of both organizations unanimously agreed that it was a positive step for the beef industry — a step that allows producers to directly compare genetic predictions from the largest multi-breed database in the world.

As with any progress, there is change. Breeders and commercial producers will need to adjust to the new base. Much like converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius, it may be a struggle at first; however, over time we will all grow accustomed to the new scale. For example look at the average EPDs of purebreds shown in this table.

The changes to the base does not change the evaluation of animals;it just changes the magnitude of the EPD. It has the same impact on all animals. Be sure to use the new percentile tables to develop a “feel” for the new EPD base.
