DeJong Ranch - 46th Annual Bull Sale by LivestockDirect

Cattlemen, We would like to welcome you to our 46th Annual Bull Sale and thank you for considering the bulls in our 2014 offering. We believe the bulls offer consistency in quality with enough diversity in kind to fill the needs of a variety of demands. The cattle industry has a vast number of segments, but the bottom line is we are all in the beef business. Our cattle run in large, rough pastures, without creep until just prior to weaning. We calve a majority of the cows in March and April with a limited number in Sept. After weaning the bulls are not pushed for maximum gain. They are fed Ration Manager from Dakotaland Feeds which is a corn base with a limiter to keep them from overeating. Our goal is to promote growth and preserve longevity. We strive to produce quality real world cattle that meet the demands of the beef industry. It is an exciting time to be in the cattle business considering the technology available and the current demand. There are also challenges we face, not the least of which is educating a growing number of consumers not involved in production agriculture. As we move forward we need to keep a proper perspective knowing that the mind of man plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps. We have set up our catalog in a little different format from previous years. The bulls are grouped by sire group with Reference sires followed by their progeny. The sale will again be an on-line auction with a closing time of 6 pm CST on Thursday Feb. 27 with extended bidding. Buyers Choice auction is in charge of setting up and running the sale. If we canâ€™t answer your questions on the format they are ready and willing to help. Thank you, Lloyd and Linda Harless, for all you do and for developing this unique and easy to use format. We will once again be hosting our presale preview Saturday, Feb. 22 including a steak dinner at the ranch, with the bulls available for your inspection. If you canâ€™t make the preview we invite you to arrange a time at your convenience to view the bulls. Looking forward to hearing from you.

ULTRASOUND DATA

The bulls will be ultrasounded and weighed on Feb. 17, 2014 by Kama Bruns and sent to the National CUP Lab. The results will be available on our website as we receive them. The reason some of the bulls don’t have adjusted data is because they are too young or too old from the 365 day target.

BREEDING GUARANTEE

All bulls are guaranteed breeders. The 18 month old bulls are fertility tested. It will be the responsibility of the buyer to have the yearling bulls fertility tested before they are turned out with the cows or before 15 months of age. The seller reserves the privilege to prove the bull a breeder. If the bull fails to prove a breeder, the seller will either replace the bull with another of equal quality or give credit to the buyer at next year’s sale, less any salvage value of the bull. In the event that a bull becomes permanently injured or dies within the first breeding season, if notified promptly, the seller shall allow credit to the buyer of one half the purchased price towards another bull less any salvage value.

We are offering free delivery in SD & NE and will assist to other states. It is the responsibility of the buyer to contact the seller to discuss delivery options. At the conclusion of the auction (pre-determined end time plus extended bidding) all lots purchased in the auction become the legal property of their respective buyers. No animals will be delivered without payment or arrangements made in advance with the seller. Seller will keep the bulls at no charge for 10 days and $2.00/head/day after that. The DeJong Ranch is not liable for injuries occurring after the sale date. Arrangements for keeping the bulls longer may be made between buyer and seller, and are at the sole discretion of these two parties.

Her Pistol Power dam is very feminine and broody with great milk. Pistol Power was by Pistol Pete and out of Power Plant’s mother. On top of that she goes back to a stout Bushwacker Angus cow who was out of a Casey daughter. It you want to increase power “ DJ Amplifyer” deserves a serious look.

A 14.2 hand gelding that has been used for all types of ranch work. Calving, AIing and sorting, pasture roping. He has a great handle and really watches cattle. Can be a little spooky and when saddled after some time off will be a little humpy. A no nonsense gelding that gets the work done.
