This year marks the 16th anniversary of our very first sale. Looking back over the years, it is extraordinary and humbling to realize how far we’ve come. Kastel Show Cattle and Friends Sale has been a labor of love for 16 years, and we couldn’t put this event together year after year without the help of our family and friends.

Each year we strive to host the best sale in Michigan and bring you the best we have to offer, and this year is no exception—the quality is deep and probably one of the best sets we’ve put together to date. Please join us Saturday evening for Cattle Fest 2019—cattle viewing, dinner, and live music by Rye Whiskey. Cattle are available for viewing any time before the sale.

Heifers Lot 1: JFK Genie in a Bottle Sire: Make a Wish Dam: Who Ya (Who Made Who)

DOB: 1/19

Genie in a Bottle is Powerful with a capital "P" and a pasture standout. With coon-like feet, ballerina gracefulness, and her sound structure, she catches the eye of all the good cattlemen. She’s a square-hipped, soggy-middled, GREAThaired breeding piece backed by one of our front pasture donors "Who Ya" (Who Made Who × New Look), who Todd Caldwell took a liking to for $10k as a baby. Matt Lautner’s rookie bull Make A Wish sure hit a homerun with this one!

She has genetics that are top notch that include Ali, Who Made Who, Monopoly, and New Look, to name a few. She has show ring presence and will be the front pasture retirement kind. Rub the Genie in a Bottle and Make A Wish—this is where your dreams start to become a reality!

Lot 2: JFK Maternal Gem Sire: Maternal Made

Dam: Whiskey Girl (Irish Whiskey)

DOB: 1/19

Maternal Gem has legendary genetics: Maternal Made, Irish Whiskey, and Emerald Lady 138M, whose reputations speak for themselves. She is expectional in her top line and muscle expression and is the vision of power from the tail head to her foot. We expect her to grab plenty of purple in her show career and earn even more greenbacks in the pasture. A future breeding sensation, this one has me drooling over the possibilities! Cow power!

Lot 3: JFK I’m Your Juliette

Sire: Meyer 734

Dam: JFK Wahoo (Irish Whiskey)

DOB: 1/19

Old school is still proving it works! Meyer 734 females are never a bad decision to add to your cow lineup, and add to that she’s backed by our most proven Irish Whiskey donor, Wahoo. She has a sweet baldie face and is booted to set her apart from the rest. What a combination! She’s sound on her feet; a jet-necked, beautifully lined, feminine heifer. We look forward to great things to come out of her. Lindsay Beukema sure had a great run with her sister, including Overall Supreme Female at Kent County Fair!

Great job, Show Princess!

Lot 4: JFK Lady Phantom

Sire: Irish Whiskey

Dam: Keller Donor 31959

DOB: 2/19

What a tough year to pick out your favorite heifer. With a stunning blazed face and a fire-hot pedigree, you can’t go wrong with this Irish Whiskey × Keller Donor 31959 (Full Flush × Meyer 734). Your breeding options on this future donor are endless.

Clubby or maternal, I have no doubt she will produce a great one. Full sib to Pryor/Reimann donor Diamond 289 that produces champions regularly. 3/4 sib to promo bull "Point Proven," owned with Jared Manns.

Lot 5: JFK Rayna James

Sire: In God We Trust

Dam: Heat Wave/Ott’s 911 Donor

DOB: 3/19

Talk about needing to get my head examined…why am I given the opportunity to sell these girls?! Here is one that Fred Frey raised and I knew I had to have at just a month old. When one gives you goosebumps right up the back of your neck and arms with that deadly pose this one gives ya, you know you have found the one! This little butterscotch hottie is something to lay your eyes on with such squishy pasterns, plenty of "fluff to puff," and a neck that would make an African "Okapi" jealous (look that one up. The Hill kids, 6 and 8 years old, taught me about that creature!). Pretty simple—this one is extra special and will run super hard in Lima next summer!

Lot 6: Berry Kiss

Sire: Run for the Roses

Dam: Dr. Who

DOB: 3/19

A wild-colored one that could go both ways! You want to run with the boys and make piles of those Franklins when she’s in production? This girl is a good choice to do just that—super eye appealing, big barrel-middled, square-hipped, wide-topped, with that sweet color pattern. She’s the banner-grabbing type I look forward to hearing about, backed by an unbelieveable female that has an expectional udder on her as she’s into her teens! So pucker up, this one’s going being throwing kisses for awhile.

Owned with Groveland Farms

2019 Kastel Show Cattle & Friends

Lot 7: JFK Ms. Marmalade

Sire: Business Done Right

Dam: Red

DOB: 1/19

"Red" has produced yet another amazing show stopper. Orange in color, great hind quarter, and smooth gears underneath make her desirable. She will be a steer-making machine someday, I am certain of that. She puts it all in one complete package.

Lot 8: JFK Jessica Rabbit

Sire: JFK Mind Bender

Dam: Powder Puff

DOB: 3/19

Hubba Bubba! Jessica Rabbit makes you do a double take.

Talk about a sexy heifer—she’s an upheaded, stretch-necked, smooth-shouldered, amazing-haired feminine type of girl with extra booty and top that will produce big-time steers one day! She has the cockiness to stand out in the ring with no effort at all. Out of our young donor "Powder Puff" (full sib to Huff-n-Puff) and our very own Mind Bender, she’s a head turner, final drive strutting kind. Grab the purple and send us all those backdrop pics.

Owned with Beukema Show Cattle

Lot 9: Malificent

Sire: I-80

Dam: JFK Dash’s Legacy

DOB: 2/19

Here is one that puts all the right pieces together. Long-necked, deep-bodied, and as structurally sound as they get, this one has the look, not to mention the pedigree that stands behind her.

Backed by upcoming Beukema Show Cattle’s "Dash’s Legacy" donor who had an outstanding show career and was a past Kastel & Friends sale feature and high seller, fetching $12,500. This one will make a great show heifer and then turn around to be a great cow.

Consigned by Beukema Show Cattle

Lot 10: Peaches ’n Cream

Sire: Higher Power

Dam: Fu Man Chu

DOB: 2/19

Do a double take! Here is one that resembles the Internet senation from few years ago, "Just Peachy," as much as any.

Higher Power is making the right kind for sure. This colored-up, amazing-shagged, big-footed, eye-appealing, huge-topped kind of girl will be fun to drag to the shows and collect banners. Keep us in the loop of her show career. So, who wants to take on the little boys with this one?

Consigned by S&J Show Cattle

Lot 11: JFK Lady Steele

Dam: I-80 × Lana

Sire: Higher Power

DOB: 1/19

Higher Power hits the mark again. This massive-middled, baby cow looking future moneymaker puts it all together. Taking notes from our Texas friends Len and Ginger Archer, she has a little something in the radiator, and that makes a great cow. She has started her show career being named Supreme Champion Female at Monroe County Fair. She also has major cow power behind her, with her I-80 dam "Miley" and the famous two-time National Champion donor Lana 4111J (Trump/Red Angus).

Owned with S&J Show Cattle

Lot 12: JFK Ginger

Sire: General

Dam: Red

DOB: 3/19

We are never diappointed by Red, and her calf by Horn’s General is no exception. She is super complete, feminine through her lines and angularity and has a great hind set. She is a little tempermental at times and not for a young showman. Shorter on hair but she makes up for it with the depth of body she carries!

Lot 13: JFK Ms. Lovey Dovey

Sire: Maternal Made

Dam: Troubadour

DOB: 2/19

What a big baby. Lovey Dovey is out of a full sib to Choppin Wood. This smoke heifer is hard to find a hole in. Stacked pedigree, maternal in her conformation, great angle to her hind wheels. Her brood cow potential is unimaginable.

Owned with Right Direction Show Stock

Lot 14: JFK Aretha

Sire: Not By Chance

Dam: Paddy O’Malley

DOB: 1/19

Clubby-Making Momma right here. She is wide-bodied, bold in her rib cage, powerful-footed, and easy on the eyes. With this genetic backing she’s sure to hit one out of the park. Maternal sib to Monopoly bull that went to Texas.

2019 Kastel Show Cattle & Friends

Lot 15: Pumpkin Pie

Sire: Higher Power

Dam: Shorthorn

DOB: 3/19

This shorthorn plus heifer is flashy and great haired. Her cool orange color grabs your attention. This is the kind you notice— she is the complete package. She has good extension to her belly, good topped and good necked. She will make a great show heifer, then retire to make you some great calves.

Consigned by the Hill family

Lot 16: Vanellope

Sire: JFK Mind Bender

Dam: Emily Elizabeth (My Kind × Dash)

DOB: 1/19

This heifer is out of a full sib to Kastel’s JFK Just Peachy donor. She is a baby momma in the making—a double-clean, cool-colored smoke that has all the right stuff to make some great calves. She is a hard one to let go of. Has the look and style similar to the one the hard-working Kelso family from Oklahoma took home last year. They sure did do a pile of winning, including Supreme Champion Heifer at Pittsburg County Fair. Great Job Jaylee Reese!

Consigned by the Hill family

Lot 17: Gaga

Sire: Monopoly 4

Dam: PS I Love You

DOB: 4/19

Yeah, she was "born this way." What an amazing heifer. PS I Love You has really made some great females, and this heifer has it all.

Freak neck, belly, bone, and width. She’s thick, but doesn’t give up that feminity that you need in the show ring. Definitely look for her to be grabbing some purple.

Consigned by Mogg Farms

Lot 18: JFK Cinnamon

Sire: Quality Counts

Dam: Heat Wave

DOB: 3/19

This chunky girl reminds me of the Grand Champion Market heifer at Kentucky State Fair the Cooper family worked so hard on! Great job Colby! Wild colored big boned, good necked with that show ring fire! Pretty sure some family going have a ball with this one.

Lot 19: Spice Girl

Sire: 1OAK

Dam: Cross

DOB: 4/19

The only 1OAK female in the sale, she has the look and style to grab your attention. She’s backed by a female that’s a ground sow that came from Dakota Classic this past winter.

Lot 20: JFK Tae

Sire: Red Angus

Dam: Troubadour

DOB: 3/19

Smoke Alert! Better get on the horn and call your neighbors when this one hits production! Smoky female that’s definitely the momma-making kind—after she struts her stuff swaying from side to side in the show ring! Big-haired, huge rib shape, all on super correct running gear.

Lot 21: Sweet Cheeks

Sire: Monopoly

Dam: GFK (Charolais)

DOB: 2/19

Step back and look at Sweet Checks! She’s a massive-rumped, big, square-hipped, shaggy-haired, trunk-legged, stout, cool packaged market heifer. Broke to show. Sweet Cheeks is ready to take on the little boys!

Consigned by Laberdee Show Cattle

Lot 22: JFK Blonde Bombshell

Sire: Higher Power

Dam: She’s Got It

DOB: 2/19

Take a look at that giraffe neck, smooth shoulder, and nice, level top. Higher Power is making the kind the beef industy needs more of. Show ring and breeding program—a winning combination.

Lot 23: JFK Electra

Sire: Gold Standard

Dam: Drifter/Ms. Rockn Deuce 158r

DOB: 4/19

OH My… Yeah, this one gives my heart an extra thump and my hands some extra shake… This one is deadly good in my eyes.

Rib shape that blends so neat and perfect into that shoulder with high head carriage to set her apart from the rest. This young one here will give her older sisters a run for the money when age is not a determining factor. Look for her dam to do big things around here! Cow power with proven banner hanging success!

Take this one to Lima!

2019 Kastel Show Cattle & Friends

Lot 24: Gabriela

Sire: Sub Zero

Dam: Broker × Rachel

DOB: 3/19

This big-hipped, smooth-jointed, booty-shaking, shaggy momma has me confident that this set of market heifers will outdo the little boys and then make a pile of money for new owners! Keep in touch with me about this special one. She also has a killer dam behind her. Southern boys, keep an eye on this one!

Sire: In God We Trust

Her 3/4 sib sold for Brock Welshans and Dan Schneider for $29,000, along with another handful that sold plenty high, including top selling market heifer in last year’s sale.

Lot 37: JFK Mitzey

Flashy young lady here that is backed by one of the best Monopoly cows a guy could lay his eyes on. This perky, chromed-up gal has the look along with so much future ahead of her. It’s Not by Chance she looks like this.

Owned with Groveland Farms

Lot 39: JFK Sparky

Sire: Made to Order

Dam: Fergi

DOB: 5/19

The youngest of my ET calves in the sale, this almost June baby has enough shag and belly and style for me to say this one has a huge future ahead of her! Her Dam Fergi is an Eye Candy × Ms. Olympia 145. Sparky is a little green, but with some work she will stand against the toughest competition. This one reminds me of one I sent to Colorado for the hard-working young girl, Roan Spencer. Keep working hard, Roan!

Dam: Man Among Boys

Consigned by Schneider Farms

Lot 41: Marvel

Sire: Nun Better

Dam: FSF Starburst

DOB: 3/19

Marvel is one that has excited us since the day she hit the ground. Excellent disposition with a look that will demand attention from the time you see her in person. This is one that you will surely do a double take on. A shorthorn plus that Sir Mixa-Lot had in mind when he rapped "I like big butts."

Consigned by Daniels Show Stock

Lot 42: Toto

Sire: Man Among Boys

Dam: Who Made Who

DOB: 4/19

Sleeper Alert! Toto is a later April calf but wow, is she coming on in these last couple months. She is clean fronted and neat necked while being so maternal in her appearance. This heifer I believe is going to give people a run for their money in the Crossbred division. Take this one home, feed her, and watch her grow into the great show heifer I know that she can be. She is backed by one heck of a Who Made Who cow that continues to produce for us.

Consigned by Daniels Show Stock

Lot 43: Princess

Sire: FSF Starburst

Dam: Boyert

DOB: 3/19

When you talk about Princess, it is hard not to use the word complete. She gets her name from the way she gets out and moves, from her beautiful front end and her really stylish look that everyone needs. You’d be hard pressed to find a purebred Shorthorn heifer like this one, no matter how many miles you travel.

Lot 44: Milk Shake

Sire: Huff-n-Puff

Dam: Monopoly × Charolais

DOB: 2/19

This Monopoly cow does it again. Every year when I breed this cow, I never know what I will get color-wise. To be honest, I had a nice smoked-up, short, chunky, wide-based steer imagined in my mind. Well, this cow threw me for a curve ball yet again. Instead I got a black, big-footed, big-ribbed, great-dispositioned, hairy, feminine female. And WOW, I was not disappointed with the results. This girl belongs in the show ring. On Sunday, October 6, the only question the new owner should have about this heifer is… Do you want fries with that shake?

Consigned by Daniels Show Stock

Lot 45: Bessie

Sire: Here I Am

Dam: Meyer 734

DOB: 3/19

Bessie is a chromed-up, wide-topped gut buster of a heifer. She is thick enough to run in the market heifer division, yet feminine enough to also show as a breeding piece. Sired by the great young bull Here I Am, she has the genetic value to go out in the pasture and be a great momma, raising club calves of her own.

Consigned by Daniels Show Stock

Lot 46: Dazzle

Sire: No Guts No Glory

Dam: Dr. Who

DOB: 3/19

Wild-marked NGNG girl here! This one has substance, cow power, and soundness along with the "IT" factor. This one was an easy pick out of pasture. I sure saw the years of breeding the right kind in that pasture. Janet sure has a niche of matching up her cows to the right bull.

Owned with Groveland Farms

Lot 47: Elvira

Sire: Hi Ho Silver

Dam: Cocoa

Freaky-necked, long-spined female with plenty of butt and bone. She is backed by an impressive female that needs no introduction. Keep me informed how this one works for ya!

Sire: JFK Mind Bender

Dam: Dakota Gold

DOB: 2/19

The first calf out of our exciting Dakota Gold × Monopoly/ SULL Mirage’s Solution cow, Greyjoy is a long-necked, very feminine heifer from the popular JFK Mind Bender. We were eagerly anticipating this pairing, and Greyjoy has exceeded our expectations! She’s already sporting the purple as Reserve Champion Crossbred at Kent County Fair. Born for the ring and puppy dog broke, with the perfect blend of sweetness and strut, this girl will be a great partner for any showman.

Consigned by Emelander Family Farms

Lot 49: JFK Dolly

Sire: Whiskey

Dam: Rachel (Meyer 734)

DOB: 11/18

The only fall born heifer in the sale this year. Shes all chromed up and backed by a powerhouse female. She is probably a rib or two longer than most, with plenty of bone. Get this girl bred and watch her belly drop. Another unique opportunity to get proven genetics.

Lot 50: Dianna

Sire: Daddy’s Money

Dam: Fu Man Chu × Black Impact

DOB: 2/19

The only Daddy’s Money calf being offered. Her dam, a really nice Fu Man Chu cow, had a successful show career. This one will follow in her footsteps. She’s really feminine through her front end.

Lot 51: Megan

Sire: JFK Mind Bender

Lot 53: Ms. Cherry Cobbler

Sire: Risk It for a Biscuit

Dam: Get It Done

If you want to run in the market heifer division, you will want to check this one out. Good-necked, boldribbed, and stout-hipped, all with that deep cherry red color.

Consigned by Douglass Farms

Lot 54: Miss Kitty

Sire: Gunsmoke

Dam: Unstoppable × Double Vision

DOB: 3/19

Miss Kitty has COW written all over her. If you want to know what great cows look like when they are young…this is it.

Solid on her legs all the way to the ground, muscle shape and dimension, and deep ribbed.

Out of Getcha Some and Liberty (Strictly Business × Rachel), this stud is one of the most complete calves in the sale. His grandam Rachel has passed down her famous traits: monster foot, massive hip, and wide top. You can’t really pick him apart; he’s balanced from head to tail with a sleek, cocky profile and plenty of muscle expression through his explosive top. He is cushy on his pasterns and moves around with ease, yet he demands attention. He is put together smooth and sleek in his chest wall up to his shoulder and neck and has a great head carriage to him. He drops those ears forward and strikes the perfect backdrop photo.

I have liked this steer since the moment I saw him. He’s just got that look that is desirable in the show ring. He’s upheaded and his top blends right into his jacked neck; his hind quarter is powerful and massive and extends down through his trunk legs. He will be one to watch out for.

Steers like this—cool marked and high quality—don’t come along very often. This guy is 3/4 sib to a many-time champion in Canada and to my promo bull, "Chick Magnet."

Embryos: All embryos must be picked up within one (1) calendar year from the date of sale. All shipping costs will be at the buyer’s expense. If embryo insertion is done by a certified embryologist, one live pregnancy out of three embryos will be guaranteed. Seller will make every attempt to provide either the same embryo or one of similar value. If embryos are not inserted within one (1) calendar year of sale, guarantee is void.

Guarantee: All registered cattle sell under the standard terms endorsed by their respective breed associations. All steer calves sell as-is. Bred females have been satisfactorily examined for pregnancy, are guaranteed bred at sale time, and are assumed to be breeders without further guarantee. Due dates listed for bred females are the result of said examination and/or known breeding dates and are intended to be used as estimates of actual calving dates. No guarantee is made for the actual calving date. No guarantee, expressed or implied, is made as to an animal’s ability to produce frozen semen or transferrable embryos, or the fertility of heifers under one year of age.

Health: Buyers should make themselves aware of their respective state’s health requirements ahead of sale.

In some cases, animals will sell as Eligible for Registry; in these cases, the animal in question may be registered by the new owner at the new owner’s expense. Please see each lot for details and for consignor information.
