I would like to invite you to the wide open spaces of Western Oklahoma, where you won’t find any of the things that are being aired on the news, and if you’re lucky you won’t find cell service either. Similar to a Colorado vacation—without the mountains but with the meat, plenty of meat, come hungry! If you are in the area between now and June 12th, we invite you to swing by and inspect the entire offering. They’re all right here handy to look at near the ranch and sale facility. We have been raising and selling show steers, breds and bulls full time since 1978, with no other supplemental side income. We don’t believe there to be a better way to grow the next generation than outside with good livestock. It is a family affair that builds sound-minded young people who respect hard work and know the value of God’s handiwork. Where our world would be if they could all start out with a family and a barn…. We often hear from the outside world that cattle are an expensive way to raise youth, but for what the family gains from the experience, I think we can all agree it is quite a bargain. There will be good cattle that sell in all price ranges and will make you leave here proud of what you’ve found—not leave here with the feeling that you just settled for what fell in your budget. Annually, it never fails that there will be a wholesale opportunity, where close to 100 head won’t bring much more than good commercial cattle. These aren’t culls—they’re cattle that will have pedigrees and power backing them, that will make you money. This is a phenomenal startup and herd addition opportunity. As stated in years past—do your homework. We guarantee there to be several that will be lottery tickets that will put you in our success stories. There will be donor quality prospects scattered from the front display pens to the back forty. Just ask a veteran sales rep, it can be a bit overwhelming and will take you awhile to look through 400 head, in 40 pens, on 40 acres diligently on (provided) golf carts. We advise you to be prepared to come early and stay late! Without a doubt, the bull offering is better than we have ever offered in our June sale, with several that will be big time promotional AI sires. There is no better investment than a good herd bull, and you won’t find a better set to choose from anywhere this spring. We have been fortunate enough to have access to grow the entire offering on milo stalks and protein tubs till March 15th, when we moved them to wheat pasture without a bite of grain till about May 10th. They’re in excellent condition coming off of winter wheat and onto silage with a very small amount of grain til sale day. Which proves that they’re how we like them— easy keepin, wide bodied, sound and good lookin. We don’t have breeder’s syndrome. There is something different about this set that everyone who has seen them has mentioned—this is the best set we have ever offered. We have a wide range of customers, some that come to add on to successful existing herds, to customers who are just starting out. Regardless of where you land on that scale, we want you to know that we are here for the long haul. If you have any questions, from vaccinations to breeding suggestions, you aren’t in this alone, and we would be glad to answer any questions you may have, big or small. As an added bonus, we offer our customers the opportunity to help market their COC progeny through COC sales. Let us know how we can assist your needs! We don’t sell them and say “See ya.” We are firm believers in the golden rule. We stand behind these animals as good as or better than anyone else in the industry. Twenty annual sales, with a majority of our clientele being repeat customers, don’t happen by not striving for quality cattle and quality service. We want to hear from you through thick and thin. After selling over 10,000 bred females since 2002, we know that we have to change and adapt with our stout cattle and great customers, so we have switched gears to let you rest easier during calving season. We know there is nothing more important than these heifers having and raising their first one trouble free; therefore, they were pasture exposed only to a set of extremely low birth weight half Angus, half Corriente bulls. These heifers have their entire reproductive life ahead of them to breed how you want, and we feel like this is the best recipe to help them do just that! There are many customers, neighbors and friends whom I owe a great deal of gratitude to, but my family first. I would like to thank my wife, “Moo” Gay Black, for always keeping the wheels turning under this operation—we couldn’t get out of “Park” without ya! I have the best mother- and father-in-law that we are so glad to have moved close by to bail us out. Thank you to my daughter and son-in-law, Tyler and Phylli Roberts, for giving us the best thing ever born to this place, Rheal Roberts. We have been very fortunate to have had quite a few great hands over the past 40 years that we couldn’t have made it to where we are without ya. Many thanks to you all! I’m still proud to be an American and hope you will join us in keeping this country and its rain chances in your prayers! Thank you,

Kris Black Saturday, June 12, 2021…Crawford, Oklahoma + LiveAuctions.TV

Since 1978 When Kris was in the first grade, his grandfather Frank “Shorty” Gilliland gave him a purebred Polled Hereford heifer. Kris kept the females as replacements, and by the time he graduated, he had a small group of cows that were the original foundation of what is now Black Hereford Ranch. Shorty’s family homesteaded the acreage that was previously the Gilliland Hereford Ranch for G.L. and Shorty Gilliland. One of the original homes still remains in use today as a ranch house. Neighbors tell stories of helping Shorty load his tack and cattle onto train cars, riding with the cattle, traveling to shows as far off as the World Beef Expo in Kentucky. They put on a number of Polled Hereford production sales over the years. Unfortunately due to health reasons, Shorty had to disperse most of his cow herd. The year Kris graduated, Shorty had a stroke that left him handicapped. Kris put a halt to college plans and moved to Crawford to work for Shorty until his passing a few years later. Kris began outcrossing Herefords and keeping heifers to build his cow herd. Two years later, he had a Houston Champion Hereford followed by a Tulsa Reserve Grand Champion Steer with a Hereford. He continued to add color to his crop, and in 1993 he had a black baldy Power Plant son that was Reserve Grand at Houston, raised by our late friend Frank Johnson. In 1994, Frank bought a Power Plant x Chi cow and called Kris to ask what to breed her to…a year later, Habanero was born. They were our first to break the $20,000 barrier, and 25 years later Habanero is still making a direct impact. Kris knows the ups and downs to starting out in this business and has thoroughly enjoyed helping people from all

SALE TERMS & CONDITIONS Terms of the sale are cash, check or wire transfer payable to Black Hereford Ranch at the conclusion of the auction. Animals are not to leave until paid for in full. Printed information on the sale day supplement takes precedence over printed information in this catalog and other advertising. Announcements from the auction block will take precedence over all printed material for this sale. All animals will be sold by lot number from the auction block. Every effort has been made to assure accuracy and information that is quoted concerning the animals is taken from their respective breeder’s records.

RETAINED INTEREST IN FEMALES Black Hereford Ranch RETAINS THE RIGHT TO PARTNER ON TWO SUCCESSFUL FLUSHES ON ALL COC FEMALES SOLD. A successful flush is defined as producing at least eight eggs per partner. If you sell the female to anyone else, Black Hereford Ranch still retains our right to partner on two successful flushes. If a buyer is not interested in flushing the female, then Black Hereford Ranch reserves the right to two successful flushes on the female at our cost and the buyer’s convenience within a timely manner.

FEMALE BREEDING GUARANTEE Safe in calf females have been examined by our veterinarians. All females declared safe in calf have a projected calving date or date range in this catalog or on the sale day supplement. All projected due dates are best estimates only and not guaranteed. Please remember that it is normal to give birth throughout the two weeks either side of their projected due date. If a pregnant female proves to be open by a licensed veterinarian within 30 days of this sale and is returned to the seller within 45 days, the buyer may choose between a full credit refund or may choose to keep the female with a $600 adjustment.

RETAINED INTEREST IN BULLS Review the COC ownership and retained bull interest policy on page 109.

BULL BREEDING GUARANTEE All bulls in this offering have been fertility and trichomoniasis tested by our veterinarians by Scott Sturgeon, D.V.M. and are guaranteed to be breeders, with the exception of a) injury or disease occurring after the time of sale; or b) gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the purchaser. Any bull that settles cows by natural service is considered a breeder.

PROTECTING YOUR INVESTMENT We did our best to use the best low birth weight sires available on these heifers. We don’t have many calving problems, but we check them every three to four hours around the clock close to due dates. After they leave our operation, we have no control, and their livelihood is now your ownership. We highly recommend you take out insurance on your purchases. This is a safe way to protect your investment on both females and bulls.

We know there is nothing more important than these heifers having and raising their first calf trouble free. Unless stated otherwise, the bred heifers were pasture exposed to a set of extremely low birth weight 1/2 Angus, 1/2 Corriente bulls. They have their entire reproductive life ahead of them, and this set of bulls will only help insure their longevity.

the

HooDoo Phylli

HooDoos

For 10 consecutive years we made the trip to Cody, Wyoming, where George Brown allowed us the opportunity to have first pick of nearly 20,000 weaned heifer calves on the HooDoo Ranch. We got to hand pick out of 2,000 heifer calves a year, but there was never one quite like HooDoo Phylli. She was the stoutest of the 1,500 we bought and brought back to Crawford. She is the dam of Yellow Jacket, Polar Ice, J10 and many other outstanding progeny. The HooDoos ultimately influenced the turning point in the show steer industry from a black-hided world to the big surge of yellows, smokes and whites. Among others, Cream of the Crop HooDoo females have produced: 2004 Houston Grand Steer, 2006 San Antonio Grand Steer, 2007 San Antonio Grand Steer, 2009 Houston Grand Steer, 2011 Houston Reserve Grand Steer, 2015 Houston Grand Steer, 2016 Houston Reserve Grand Steer and 2016 San Antonio Reserve Grand Steer plus countless breed champions at the toughest shows in the country. You won’t find HooDoo genetics offered in volume anywhere else like in our COC sales!

PB HooDoo selected by Howdy Tucker in our June 2017 sale for $28,000. She has paid for herself in progeny sales many times. 2017 Houston Reserve Grand Steer—granddam was a COC HooDoo.

2015 Houston Grand Steer, out of a COC PB HooDoo cow that we sold to our good COC customers at Parker Cattle Co.

2016 Houston Reserve Grand Steer, out of a daughter of a COC HooDoo purchased by Brian and Dennis Kennedy. Fast forward to 2021, and the Kennedys have raised five Houston Reserve Grands out of COC genetics!

Both of these outstanding heifer champions were out of our HooDoo donors. Congratulations to the Shaffer Family on the 2013 —14 Charolais Show Heifer of the Year and the Grand Champion Heifer at the 2015 Charolais Junior National.

COC

Yellow Jacket

(Lifeline x HooDoo Phylli Donor) COC Yellow Jacket would be 18 years old now and is still siring great ones. He is sired by COC Lifeline (who was sired by COC Habanero) and out of the $100,000 plus producing COC HooDoo Phylli donor. He is TH and PHA free but builds them versatile, siring countless haired show champions from coast to coast. You will also see the Yellow Jacket name on the bottom side of just as many if not more champion pedigrees. His daughters are reputable, standing the ultimate test of time. They are some of the best producing and most sought after females in the business. Just about everywhere we go, Yellow Jacket females produce some of the best! Yellow Jacket is still producing the kind in high demand, including the 2016 Houston Grand Steer for the Martin Family, sired by Yellow Jacket, and most recently the 2020 Aksarben Reserve Grand Steer out of a Yellow Jacket daughter. Fads come and go, but the quality this bunch brings to the table withstands the test of time. 2016 Houston Grand Steer, sired by Yellow Jacket

COC The Judge .410 (Dakota Gold x Donor 410) …Lot 1 in the Fall 2019 sale

Just like many others in the industry, the $76,000 Dakota Gold derives from a tremendous Yellow Jacket female. It seems like everywhere we go there’s a darn good Yellow Jacket daughter on the bottom side of the calves we ask about or the ones that have us reaching for our catalog to look up. When we saw Dakota Gold selling as a yearling, Kris found a partner and tried his hardest to get him bought, sadly coming up way short of the dowry. Since we have had tremendous luck AI and flushing to him, Kris still kicks himself for being so tight with his wallet when he sold. Dakota Gold has fired away on our COC Troubadour’s mother and grandmother, including our $50,000 Judge .410 to Parker, Bull Sale highlight to Renner and the $21,000 2016 Female Sale Lot 18 to Speer, just to name a few. The power in the blood is passed on for generations, and his descendants are sure to blaze new trails of their own.

We are simple folk. Out of the four of us, there’s only one bachelor’s degree, and it took him a minute to attain it. What we missed learning from the walls of a classroom, we are proud to have gained hands-on at the school of Hard Knocks. Regardless of an informal education, we've still discovered “our kind” of cattle by working hands-on for generations, from conception to backdrop, on a large scale — a large enough scale that these cattle must go to the country and earn their keep without being high maintenance. We do our part to be good stewards of the cattle He has blessed us with, but in return they have to hold up their end of their bargain to remain BHR residents. Our commentary goal throughout this book is to describe them true. No Photoshop, no smoke and lights, no glitter, no sales pitch, no stretchin the truth. Our vocabulary is shallow and far from impressive, but that doesn’t change what our eyes and experience see in this incredible animal. From the ground up, we see a female that stands on a massive set of feet that are built correct. The amount of bone she has supporting her is truly incredible. She is loose and clean jointed with an immeasurable amount of cushion when she reaches forward and sets it down in her track. As our eyes move up, the rest is as true as presented. She has mind boggling amounts of power, muscle, shape and look. Undoubtedly, she wears the pants, and they’re a very big set of britches. In an industry that is struggling to get them big enough, sound enough and powerful enough in the same package, her Yellow Jacket-bred roots are strong. She lacks nothing. From a breeding standpoint, it is a breath of fresh air to see ones with this amount of product who still have good udder development and all the maternal characteristics of making a tremendous cow…one that you can send to the pasture confidently and not just have open from flush date to flush date. The good Lord’s handiwork on display. Simply stated,

She is our kind!

COC = “Cream of the Crop” It isn’t just a punchline, it’s a standard we strive for. Of the close to 11,000 head of breeding stock that have traveled through this sale ring since this sale kicked off 20 years ago, some of the leaders in this industry have gotten their start right here in Crawford. In return, we are grateful for the opportunity to help our customers market their cattle to their maximum potential. Lots 1–3 are the elite top end of our good customer John Sachau’s 2019-born heifers. They pull their weight as “Cream of the Crop” quality!

She is the type who can be used on a wide variety of bulls to make the cattle in high demand. She has maternal function with loads of class and style.

S American Sniper by Dakota Gold

As advertised in all the magazines, we present to you the very impressive Lot 7. She is only the second calf out of a great female from longtime customer Gabel Farms. The DOT would get her on the highway, because she is overloaded beyond maximum capacity with product. There hasn’t consistently been any as simple to sell as a black pinto steer who has the slick shear gear over the past couple years, because there are so many ways to run em. We had her in the barn for a 4-H project for our foster girls, as she had the hair and the attitude to go to the show ring and now has all that it takes for you to take her to the donor pen. Sight unseen, you won’t regret this buy!

Also in 2008, they purchased COC Lot 62 for $7,500…she raised the 2012 San Antonio Champion Limi, was re-sold for $25,000 to the Kennedy brothers and would later raise the 2016 Houston Reserve Grand Steer.

Put your readers on and wrap your head around this with us…. KBC Taz sired Heat Wave’s mother. Our Taz daughters, granddaughters and great-granddaughters are still phenomenal producers, but think of what all that Taz daughter deserves credit for. We see a lot of guys in this business only studying the top side of pedigrees, only referencing parts of pedigrees for shorthand, but we all realistically know the amount of power steering there is on the bottom side of pedigrees, and there ain’t one of us that would be here today without the power of a mother. Without that good Taz cow, would there have been a Heat Wave? Without a Heat Wave, would there be a Monopoly or the masses of other name brand sons? There’s a lot of credit due to the cow families that get the job done and have made this industry what it is today!

He’s built a reputation and herd around his sons and daughters that are second to none. John Bauman purchased the 2006 Lot 350, a three-month-old heifer calf, first-ever HooDoo Phylli daughter and full sister to Yellow Jacket from us at $21,000. Her first calf, Felony, was displayed in Denver in 2009 by Bauman and DeRouchey. Tony Myers bred COC 812 to a great Felony daughter to produce what is now the everimpressive 812F (COC 812 x Felony). 812 has sired AI sires like Horn Livestock’s Popsicle and the dam of HL Slingshot.

About Lots 90—92…It took three trips to Munday, TX, listening to more bologna than you can imagine, risking my life riding in his passenger seat and even going on a wild cow chase to attempt to school him on how to pull a calf. However, these heifers have grown into ones that make the record high blood pressure levels worth it. Tony Myers has been a longtime COC customer and easy target to pick on for many years.

Donor 15 was purchased by the boys of the 5M Ranch for $20,000 as a COC bred heifer, and was she a good one! She was a purebred Charolais, 3/4 HooDoo bred sired by our great COC Blanco, and her mother was our infamous 6017. Donor 6017, over her 17 years in production, is the dam of more than we can list, but her show heifers are some of her most talked about progeny, including the 2013–14 AICA Show Heifer of the Year. She is the dam of Camp Cooley’s breed-leading “Smart Choice,” Patschke Land & Cattle’s “Cheyenne,” and the COC 501 herd sire (who sired the dams of the popular American Lots 301 and 302 last summer at $35,000) plus his three full sisters that averaged $20,000 as bred heifers, pushing his donor dam well over the $250,000 mark in progeny sales. 3130 was the high seller in the “Just Right for the Valley Club Calf Sale” as a heifer calf. Wow, has she ever consistently struck gold when mated to 1OAK in her last two calf crops! This heifer is a full sib to a $25,000 COC steer this spring that we all hands down thought the world of and can’t wait to see run at the money next spring.

Good bone, super complete, stout topped and nice muscled. Her mother is royally bred, sired by the $38,500 COC 24 Karat to Brad Holt and out of our good ol 2048 registered HooDoo donor, who was perfect sized for a PB Charolais and was extremely good lookin in her prime. She produced a COC herd sire who is now at work in Mike and Mary Martin’s elite Missouri program.

He Knows has since sired COC steers that were in the running for a banner as well as Lots 99–102 and the incredible Lot 369 in the bull division. His entire Main Event sired pen was bought out by Steve Bonham for good reason this spring. Unfortunately, He Knows was lost to a freak accident this year, and this is the last of his progeny to be offered with no semen left in the tanks. Rest assured, they won’t be forgotten.

102

COC Habanero would be 27 years old this fall, and we are still reaching back in the tanks to breed and flush some of our best to him. He topped our sale in Sweetwater, TX, in 1996. Brandon Horn could spot a good steer even back when he was sellin show pigs and wanted him to cut and sell for a show steer. We are sure grateful Gregory Farms won that bidding war, because Habanero has been a cornerstone for our program. This 3/4 Maine has sired champions and class winners in the Maine circles as well as the 1999 Houston Grand, shown by the K-Sis/Woodley crew out of a COC dam (that cow also produced a Houston Champion AOB sired by COC Bazooka), 1999 Illinois State Fair Grand, 1999 Wyoming State Fair, 2000 Houston Grand Carcass Steer, Goal Post Classic Grand Heifer, 2003 Houston Grand and a $29,000 steer for Kris. He sired COC LifeLine and is the grandsire of COC Yellow Jacket. Just as importantly, he knows how to make foundation females. For instance, great-granddaughter “Goretska 805” has produced Loaded for Bear, One in the Chamber, Here I Am, Honest Abe and others. Habanero has also sired the dams of promo bulls such as Walk This Way and March Madness. In 2014, a Habanero daughter produced the Grand Steer at Oklahoma City for longtime customers Mike and Tom Barnes. That cow also influences the cow family of Lot 102. Habanero has stood the ultimate test of time, and his daughters and granddaughters continue to prove their worth.

He has since sired COC George, COC Blanco and multiple top dog donors in leading programs like Day, Nelson, Mimms, Rathmann and many more that we should have written down. We knew John D. Nelson with Nelson Embryo Service had mentioned before that he was a Prince fan—not the late singer/songwriter but HooDoo Prince 2019, who earned rock star status in our world. John had a Prince daughter whose first four calves averaged over $25,000. She went on to produce an Austin Grand, 10 head that got the coveted Houston brand and another 16 head that averaged $16,000. However, it wasn’t just one daughter that he had to brag about on that call. Another Prince daughter produced over $100,000, and another produced three head for $20–$30,000. He had four Walks Alone x Prince steers that sold for $90,000. “When everything was getting too much (out there), I would always end up going back to a (Prince) daughter or granddaughter.” – John Nelson referring to the consistency of his Prince-bred females.

COC Renegade (Troubadour x Donor 5088)

There is no denying that the power of Donor 5088 keeps getting sweeter as she ages. With each generation, the fire continues to get hotter. She was hands down one of the best lookin HooDoos to ever come out of Cody, Wyoming. HooDoo Ranch Manager George Brown only let Kris pick one out of their spring bred heifer pen, and what is now our Donor 5088 was his choice. She was Kris’s No. 1 pick of 1,600 bred PB heifers at the HooDoo Ranch in 2006 and is still a standout of the 20,000 HooDoos we were privileged enough to hand sort through over the years. She herself has produced “the one” more than once, and even the ones that weren’t the bell ringers on sale day have year in and year out flat outdone themselves. (See Speer’s success with their 368 Donor on page 33 for added reference). The biggest fires come from the perfect conditions, and Troubadour brought all the best fuel to the flames 5088 already had going. His daughters are hands down some of our greatest producers and are going to become next to impossible to find, as he is deceased and the semen bank is depleted. When you cross rare breeding pieces like these, you get bulls that break the mold, like COC Renegade, and females like the $25,000 half interest COC Sue and their sisters!

COC Donor 51 Sue (Troubadour x Donor 5088)

When the gavel went down after our 2017 Lot 1 sold, our good friend Sue Hyatt came Maternal sister to Lots 111—114 Full brother to Lots 111—114 Maternal brother to Lots 111—114 to us with a smirk on her face and mild …Lot 95 in the June 2020 sale …Lot 312 in the June 2020 sale …Lot 313 in the June 2020 sale seriousness in her voice to inform us that “41 is Billy’s and this one’s mine!” There are so many reasons to invest in a quality donor prospect, and the Hyatts have done their homework and solely bought the ones that did just that. (Billy Hyatt had previously purchased our 2006 Lot 1 HooDoo, known as “Donor 41 Billy,” who had paid for herself many times over.) You run the numbers and let “Sue” be the compass on what an investment these females can be for your bank account, program and love of the game. Sue’s first flush to a mix of Man Among Boys and Monopoly included a 2020 Summer Sale $14,000 bred heifer, $10,400 bull and $13,000 bull; 2020 Fall Sale $6,750 bred heifer; 2019 high selling bull prospect in our online sale and a bell ringer at a tough virtual show in Arizona—all out of our $25,000 half interest Sue’s first flush alone! Her second flush, mixed to Monopoly and Fu Man Chu, brings a different style of cattle that don’t disappoint! If you have a need for speed, this cow family is a jet you better not miss an opportunity to get on. They’re power that doesn’t short change it from a maternal aspect and can have a herd built around em. This whole cow family thrives on being show offs, and these next four peas in a pod (Lots 111–114) are sure to throw the gas to your program’s fire. We could go on about them for days, but this quality set from top to bottom, in person and on paper, speaks for themselves. We know their potential, and that makes them all the more hard to part with, but here’s your proof that we don’t keep the best and sell the rest! Go RAISE YOUR OWN CHAMPIONS with these ladies!

Donor 9970 (Casper x Sugar Ray x Epinal x Cunia)

Donor 9970 daughter …Lot 18 in the June 2016 sale

Every good herd sire starts with a great cow family. 9970 has been a backbone and powerline source donor on the way backside of so many of our pedigrees. She’s a 1999 model that never received near the attention she deserved. We have stated not once but many times in our catalog that blues may not win the popular vote, but quality trumps color any day, and she proved it! She was a producer in our donor pen till she was 20 years old. Her daughters have been some of the most elite producers in our program, including Donor 410, the over $300,000 producing dam of Troubadour. At age 17, 9970 produced a Dakota Gold daughter who was our Lot 18 high seller at $21,000 and is now in our good customers at Tri-S Ranch’s elite donor lineup. 9970’s 20th birthday brought yet another Dakota Gold standout, our 2019 Bull Sale Lot 5 highlight bull to our late, great friend and customer Phillip Renner’s legacy herd. She’s built the brand we stand behind!

“I have been a long time customer and consignor to Cream of the Crop sales. The donor cows and herd sires I have purchased have helped improve my

program and take it to the next level. My 110 Donor (2013 COC Lot 10 by

COC Troubadour) and 101 (2013 COC Lot 1 by COC Yellow Jacket) have been

great additions. They have produced multiple county show champions and

major show contenders as well as heifers that have sold very well. These cattle

make money and have provided a great return on investment.” — James Birkhead, Birkhead Cattle Co., Rockdale, TX

Donor 410 (WG x Donor 9970 — Casper x Sugar Ray)

COC Troubadour …son of Donor 410

Rockstar (Man Among Boys x Lead On x Donor 410)

Donor 410 very iconic piece of our goal post. She mostly gets credit for playing the role as the mother of COC Troubadour. However, she also consistently generated the rare birds and big bucks with the slew of full sibs to him that reside with the elites in some of the most prolific club calf operations across the country.

The first calf crop of 4W Casper (raised by customer Joe Word of Vernon, TX) included the 1999 Houston Reserve Shorthorn for the James boys as well as the 1998 and 1999 Reserve Shorthorns at the Belt Buckle. Kris stood confident in the quality that Casper was producing, breeding over 100 cows to him. His gut instinct paid off. With that calf crop came undoubtedly one of the most impactful cows to ever hit the ground in Crawford, Donor 9970.

The $175,000-valued, heavily promoted Denver display bull raised by Tim Voboril and owned with MidContinent Farms. Rockstar is backed by a tremendous COC full sister to Troubadour.

You can see a lot of the same qualities Firebird possesses in this deep red female. She is extremely loose built, long spined, good boned, humongous middled and awesome framed for today’s times.

While listening to the Kentucky Derby tailgate stories in the background of putting this book together, the story of five college buddies who invested into the syndicate ($5,500 apiece) of Derby qualifier “Hot Rod Charlie” spurred our memory of how simple Lance LaBouve and Nathan Nicholson are making it look. In 2016, we started hearing from a couple of boys from Marshall, TX, who were wanting to start putting a cow herd together. That summer, they purchased a non-pictured $4,000 bred heifer from us. Later that fall, they called wanting semen and suggestions on how to breed them back. In the next calf crop, they sent us what would become the 2019 San Antonio Reserve Champion Simmi. The next summer, we sold flushmate COC Firebird, whom Kris liked enough to try that spring. Fall 2020 rolled around, and Kris had fallen head over heels in love with Firebird, using him in bulk, and we are excited to see his calf crop this fall. Now here we are with these flushmate sisters upping the ante and continuing to rake in the earnings record for the buddies from Marshall.

If given more playing time and exposure, he undoubtedly was the caliber to become a household name. He was bigger framed, just right for the times and out of this world good lookin. We can’t say enough good about him to ever do him justice. In his short career, he sired a $40,000-valued weaned bull calf prospect as well as our $22,000 COC Pence. Cruz’s first daughters have been a hot topic, bringing up to $12,000 and averaging extremely well for us; more importantly, they turned right around and have been money makers in some very prevalent programs. He was double clean with TH hair and is one of the most consistent bulls we have ever used. He was one stout dude that could travel like no other. Not many saw him in person, but they’ll be seeing his progeny long after the tanks run dry.

Ty Kent Williams September 6, 1963 — October 29, 2020 “If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory and the power for ever and ever.” 1 Peter 4:11 Ty was a herdsman of crops, cattle, family and friends. Ty was a survivor of a lifelong bad hand of health, Panhandle droughts, cattle markets and ornery friends. His testimony is about as deep as it comes—a testament of how much we take for granted in this life and a reminder of what is truly important. Ty is survived by a wife and two sons, who are proof of the quality of his heart. Paula Williams is as strong as they come and can smile her way through the hardest of times. Two boys, Tucker and Taylor, who never missed a beat, gathered up the reins and pressed on to carry on a legacy that Ty left them with. Ty Williams overcame a hard dealt hand of life that was far from ideal, battling eye surgeries, kidney disease, a stroke, renal failure, heart attack and stage 5 kidney failure, all from diabetes. On Easter Sunday 2017, years of prayers were answered as Ty successfully received a kidney and pancreas transplant. This gave Ty a few years of “normalcy” with his family, a chance to be a grandpa and of course the opportunity to raise a few more sets of truly great cattle. Ty defeated the China Virus last fall, but devastatingly his previous health issues kept him from making a full recovery. However, the good Lord always knows best. Within Ty’s life he created a family tree and a cow herd that were strong, tough and rooted to withstand far worse than any “2011 drought” or any trials and tribulations thrown in their path. Ty went “home” the week of our bull sale last fall, where after nearly five decades he was finally able to be 100% again. Gay and Ty showed together growing up, and the Williams family has been our customers and friends since the beginning. We can’t thank Ty and his family enough for wintering over 200 head for us annually over the past several years. It’s hard to hand over the reins on a group that large, but we never had to worry with Ty, as he always treated them as his own, and his boys stepped up and filled his shoes this winter without missing a beat. We couldn’t have done it without all his help and spurs to our sides over the years! One of the last times we got the chance to sit around and shoot the bull with Ty was when he dropped this set of heifers off. We knew they were exceptionally good at the time, but wow—have they ever matured into a phenomenal set of females! They’re all out of Ty’s genetically clean “BB” Donor that Kris tried awful hard to buy as a weaned heifer calf “a few years back” and is now trying to mass produce her with the Williams boys. Lots 156–160 It’s next to never that you find a set of sisters that are this consistent from top to bottom, all unique in their own way, but every single one of them this flat stinkin good. They’re sibs to Tucker’s and Taylor’s high selling steer this spring as well as to multiple $10,000 calves over the years. These daughters are the type and kind that will bring names back to our success stories in the years to come. Shut your eyes and throw your loop into this herd, you can’t miss! Hats off to Paula, Tucker, Taylor and the late Ty Williams on a truly remarkable set!

8533 swings for the fence yet again! This is the one we have all had the eye for since the day she hit the ground. A huge middled, backed, hipped, slick shear geared critter who was born with the big time hair that 8533 polishes them off with.

Only the second calf from a truly tremendous clone to Donor 8533 of John Grave’s Safari Cattle Co. She is deep made, great big backed and still sound for as much product as she carries. Study the picture of this cow family and compare it to this female, she fits the mold!

Donor 8533 & Clones (Smooth Moves x Duello Maine) After all the progeny we have sold high and watched go do big things, when longtime customer John Graves called wanting to see if we would help him sell Donor 8533, we didn't hesitate to say “send her.” She is now at work for David Vallejo, and his embryo calves on the ground are going to blow you away! “I have yet to forget when John Graves unloaded his 2013 heifer consignments for this sale. Tim Voboril and I both looked at each other, nodded and said, ‘That one.’” When we asked John what she was, he simply replied “Peaches,” as if that covered the bases, and it did. She was good enough it didn’t matter, but it was a bonus…bonus enough that “She is a staple in our embryo program.” said Brandon Bird, who turned the $24,000 Peaches into the slot machine now known as Bird Donor 3, featured annually in Donors Unlimited. 8533 is also the dam of the $22,000 COC MOAB to Gregg Kroupa, Peaches’ sisters at $14,000 and $17,000, two COC steers that brought in $40,000 as well as several more from $5,000 to $10,000. 8533 was cloned, and her two replicas are on their way to paving their own path. Stout genetics, stout cattle, stout paychecks!

Easy Money x Donor 1685 (Skipper x Tank)

SEE PAGE 64 FOR SEMEN His daughters & granddaughters sell…plus semen! COC Easy Jett was born unassisted to a dang nice first-calf heifer in 2014, and her second crop produced our high selling Highway 33; she has produced a phenomenal set of females since then. Donor 1685 has been a no-miss profit maker that undeniably passes that trait on heavily. Half-interest in Easy Jett sold in our 2015 Bull Sale to Bradley and Jett Hale of Miami, Texas. Bradley and Kris both AI’d, flushed and cleaned up cows with him that fall and spring with confidence. He lived up to his Roger Mills County namesake and hit the fast track with more momentum than we ever dreamt! Easy Jett’s first calf crop of steers laid the foundation of everything we expected and then some. Every single Easy Jett steer we sold that spring, except for one, branded at a Texas major. Even on a minimal calf crop, he produced the SandHills Champion Polled and sired three of the four Hereford champions at Fort Worth in 2019. His daughters are nothing short of phenomenal. Unfortunately, in the spring of 2017, Easy Jett sustained an injury that most vets chalked up as a complete loss, but Dr. Gary Warner and his team of specialists at Elgin, Texas, took it head on. We are very fortunate to have him back in our lineup, but due to recovery, Easy Jett has not been able to produce semen as often. Until banks are restored, we are still not releasing semen to the open public market. He is a phenomenal looking mature bull, even in his work clothes. Never have we ever had a sire group so deep, so quick, not even when the winningest Hereford show steer sire of all time, Made Right, who has been in the record books for 19 years, was in his prime production. 100 units will be the only semen available on the market, through this sale on Saturday, June 12th.

Ernest Clark and Wade Shackelford purchased her as a bargain at $3,500, she has produced $300,000 with a daughter at $100,000 in earnings, and they’ve built an entire program around this foundation female. She has a maternal sister to Lot 225’s granddam that has produced Fort Worth champions and in 2019 alone produced $52,500 in weanling prospects. Another sister produced the 2019 Houston Champion Polled. Without a doubt, this female is backed by prolific females that in part have made the Hereford club calf industry what it is today.

COC customers Bruce and Dustin Glover have now written a how-to book titled “Hereford Mafia Millionaires.” They have been volume Made Right semen buyers time and time again and have done their fair share to decorate Made Right’s resume. Their 0454 Donor (dam of Battle Cry) has produced more great ones than they’ve been able to keep track of, including over half a million in earnings. The Glovers and Casey Cox have taken as many as a pot load of COC females back to Elgin and have more than one in their donor pen any time we stop by there. Without a doubt, they raise, sell and show some of the best in the country, and we appreciate them trusting in our genetics enough to take them to new heights. Ask Bruce Glover how much a good COC herd sire is worth. One of Bruce’s top calves this spring was out of a daughter sired by his good COC Blanco son. This steer gained 100 lbs. before they finally got him sold in their annual phone bid-off a month later at $37,000, but Bruce agrees that he was well worth the wait.

Great big bodied, good hipped, sound cow maker.

Big time stout, way good lookin, sound made and quick maturin. Comanche was our 2018 bull sold to longtime customer and good friend Gerald Haseloff, Vernon, TX. Raised by Jason Jensen, he is a full brother to the $76,000 Battle Cry, War Paint and the 2016 Fort Worth Champion Hereford. Their 0454 donor dam is now well over the $800,000 mark in progeny sales for Dustin Glover.

COC Battleship (Battle Cry x Kut Above) We were very high on one of the best Hereford bull prospects to ever step foot on our place. Battleship was sired by the $76,000 Made Right son, Battle Cry, and out of a darn good Kut Above daughter at Larry Kieschnick’s. We liked Battleship enough that we purchased half interest from Kieschnick and put him straight to work. His first calf crop proved his worth and far exceeded our expectations. Battleship built up a lot of steam in a short amount of time; however, we are sad to say that we lost him in the summer of 2019, with a limited semen bank on hand. The opportunities to acquire his progeny will be very limited. There are only 37 units of semen left on this truly remarkable breeding piece, and we are offering you 3 units June 12th (see page 64).

She has a maternal sister to Lot 238’s granddam that has produced Fort Worth champions and in 2019 alone produced $52,500 worth of weanling prospects. Another sister produced the 2019 Houston Champion Polled. Without a doubt, this female is backed by prolific females that have helped make the Hereford club calf industry what it is today.

“When everyone went Made Right, dad fell in love with Carpe Diem.” — Weston Born, Born Ranches, Darouzzett, TX…no stranger to good Herefords. Longtime customers and iconic cattle have made their way through Stan Born’s decision to use Carpe Diem hard and heavy, including names like Kaw-Liga, Encore, Torque and more high sellers, backdrops and memorable Herefords than you can shake a stick at.

Powerful, deep and wide, big boned, backed and hipped.

Donor 1600 (Kut Above x Donor 9929 [Dakota x Timex]) If Kris had to sell everything else and could only keep one, 1600 would probably be the last one standing. She is cookie cutter perfection of what we deem as “right.” Ones like her are next to impossible to recreate. She is a maternal sister to Made Right and 1039 and a full sister to Donor 1701 and Above and Beyond. She is the mother to the up-and-coming $30,000 “Right Above” AI sire, owned with Morgan Cox. She also produced the $12,000 half interest bull prospect last spring, High Plains Drifter, to Josh Martin. Her daughters have been out of this world good as well, with several bringing up to $10,000.

MATERNAL INFLUENCE Donor 6557 was the biggest bodied creature to step foot on this place. She had to be put on a diet in order to fit down our alley and didn’t ever fit in any of our chutes. She produced a Heat Wave steer that won the Star County Show before flat firing away to Irish Whiskey. In our 2016 Bull Sale, she produced a bull we collected semen on prior to the sale, COC Whiskey Man, that is now at work in California for Jim Mattes. A flushmate to him sold as Lot 345 in our 2017 Female Sale; Ken Richter is now mass producing her to build a phenomenal set of females around up North. Then the most talked about of the bunch was the Lot 114 spring bred female in our 2018 Bull Sale to Mike Mimms and Jess Shirley, whom they now call “The best lookin cow in Hereford, TX” and “Donor 1514.” Her first flush to sell in Donors Unlimited, a pregnancy and six frozen embryos paid for well over half of her original purchase price.

Scales Show Cattle If you’re looking for a top notch show steer and are in the Houston area, the Scales boys have been longtime COC volume customers and make several trips to Crawford to take champion caliber show steers back to Santa Fe, TX. You won’t find anyone who will help you manage your projects from the time of sale to the backdrop better than they do. They know how to get it done! In Galveston County alone, they have taken our steers all the way, with Grands in 2016, 2018, 2019, 2021 Grand and Reserve. Don’t rule them out to help you find and manage great haired steers in the South, as they also had several COC calves make the sale at Fort Worth in 2020 and Abilene 2021, including the COC 2020 Fort Worth Class 1 winner. Great people who always go the extra mile. Thank y’all!

A deep, wide brute that will make a cow that’ll pull her weight and then some, just like all the women that line her mother’s pedigree.

They’re all polled, black, maternal built females that still bring the power to the table. Whether your sights are Angus club calf production, or if your program is seeking some exceptional black females, these daughters have a lot of versatility to offer.

Unless stated otherwise, the bred heifers were pasture exposed to a set of extremely low birth weight 1/2 Angus, 1/2 Corriente bulls. They have their entire reproductive life ahead of them, and this set of bulls will help insure their longevity.

How often do you get the chance to run one of this caliber through your sale ring twice? Our 2018 Bull Sale Lot 1 sold to Gregg Kroupa, who has kept enough of his impressive daughters as replacements that he sold the majority of his mature Hereford cow herd, and while Third Time’s A Charm is in the prime of his life and in excellent shape, Kroupa sent him back to us to sell so that he can go on to make more major waves in other programs. You won’t find a more athletic, better lookin three-year-old of any color, with a pedigree that runs this deep, anywhere. He is sired by COC Double Made to 1Eleven Cattle and back out of a full sister to COC Made Right. COC Double Made produced the 2021 Dixie National Reserve Grand. Big time opportunity awaits here! Gregg Kroupa has also purchased and put into production COC greats like Carpe Diem, Freeze Frame, MOAB, Pence and the COC 159 cow. Gregg purchased COC Donor 159 for $10,000 and put her on the assembly line to now be over the $300,000 mark in earnings.

I was in the bull trap writing these boring footnotes when my phone rang. “Do you have a real good Made Right or Easy Jett son in the June sale?” About that time, the car rocked like I had run into something, but I was in Park. “Yes, he just butted my wife’s car, and he looked real good doin it.” Sorry, Gay... This is as powerful a one as we have raised, long cool necked and a big time shearing muscled stud. Sired by the $30,000 COC Right Above and back out of Easy Jett’s mother, who we think is the next big thing. They just don’t come along built like this one very often. He is truly special!

He is beautiful necked and the most fault free one in the bunch. He has plenty of power, squareness, is built about as perfect as they come and has the great running gear that they all need to have. His Steel Force donor dam has been an outstanding producer for Diamond M. She has produced Lot 1 in Mueller’s sale two different years, bringing in $20,000 and $25,000. She also produced a daughter that won the World Beef Expo, and a full brother is their new junior herd sire. He was our pick from Mark’s 2019 fall bull crop, and we are still big fans.

Good black baldies are always a hot commodity. Here is a 3/4 Simmental that you will wear out a new vehicle just tryin to find one remotely the same caliber. He has a stunning look. We love his rib shape, his big back all the way to his blades and a rear like they’ve gotta have to raise the bar to a higher level in the slick shear game. He is a black/ blaze-faced Simmental bull that is killer lookin and heavy duty enough to sire a champion caliber show steer, which is hard to find. He has the looks like every heifer he sires should go in the keepin pen, a big added bonus.

If you’re looking for a deep, wide bodied, easy keepin truck, this purebred Simmental has power to burn and the feet, legs and structure to build you a fantastic cow herd that your neighbors and competitors will envy. Take you a long, hard look at this bull. Don’t rule out that he could make you a champion caliber show steer that would pay for himself on a single calf, or he will prove ya wrong. Put him on some cows that need powered up and a big shot of maternal and he will hit you a homer.

Long, long necked and packed with plenty of the right kind of muscle, and his feet, legs and structure are as good as you’ll ask for. Immense amount of hip and top that is the top of the class as a slick shearing specialist. Added bonus: he had the hair they need to go make waves in the haired show sector of our industry. Hair with substance. He is the age and size to go cover 25 to 30 cows June 12th.

Everybody needs to pay attention here, including all the American fans. “A black beast” best describes him. Powerful and as big square hipped as you’ll ever lay your eyes on. Humongous topped and moves like you cannot imagine. Great structured for any bull, but especially to be so stout. He is a cow changer, and his COC sire has been doin it right for Ricky Gray for many years. You’ve got to see this one in 3D to get the full effect.

This is how it is supposed to work—COC heifers getting it done the first trip. We bought 300 units of Oscar X28 because of his look, build and, most important, calving ease. This son hit the ground at 65 lbs., unassisted, and is built like he should sire the same. X28 daughters have long been proven exceptionally maternal cows, and he will make Red Angus show steers out of heifers of many colors.

“Redbone”

Good enough to be the leadoff bull, but since he’s the only half-blood in the offering, we will just let him slam this book shut with a smile and a bang! One rare bird that is an unusual blend of a tremendous exotic in an American’s clothing. He is a paternal brother to the 2021 Houston Champion Middle Weight Brahman. He is as deep as they make them, extremely big square slick shearing backed and butted, but yet for the amount of power he presents, he is still one loose hided and structured athlete. He travels on a big set of timber that is second to none. We don’t claim to be expert American producers, but we do pride ourselves in great cattle regardless of their color, and this one is that without a doubt. There are a bunch of real cool, clubby toy females out there that this thing could absolutely knock it out of the park on if you want to RAISE YOUR OWN AMERICAN CHAMPIONS, because in our books this dude Makes Americans Great Again!

RETAINED INTEREST IN COC BULLS OWNERSHIP Unless otherwise stated, we are selling full possession, full salvage value and 2/3 revenue sharing semen interest. This means the bull is totally in your control as to how you want to handle him, as well as 100% of the salvage value of the bull. We are retaining 1/3 revenue-sharing semen interest. This simply gives us the right to 1/3 of the semen sales revenue from the bull, if at some time in the future semen sales become a possibility. If you sell the bull to anyone else, Black Hereford Ranch retains our semen interest and revenue sales. If a buyer is not interested in marketing the semen from a bull, then Black Hereford Ranch reserves the right to collect a semen bank on the bull at our cost and the buyer’s convenience within a timely manner. That semen would be 100% owned by Black Hereford Ranch for our use or marketing. Realistically speaking, the reason Black Hereford Ranch retains an interest in every bull is that we want to keep it simple, and we have great bulls throughout the offering. The bulls that do develop a market for larger amounts of semen can be very financially rewarding; therefore, as a breeder of some of the best seed stock in the industry, we want to share with you in these bulls. Even bulls that aren’t originally promoted can become popular at a later time, especially after calf crops prove successful. We want to be a great partner with you. SEMEN RIGHTS Buyers receive semen rights proportionally to the interest that is purchased. A 1/3 semen interest and thus 1/3 of all semen sales is retained on all bulls unless otherwise stated in the catalog or supplement sheet or announced from the block the day of the sale. Therefore, if you purchase 2/3 revenue sharing semen interest, you are entitled to 2/3 of the collection semen cost provided that you indicate that you want semen prior to collection. Future semen collections must be made known to all owners prior to collecting. The collections and cost will be divided according to each owner’s interest, unless otherwise agreed upon mutually by all owners prior to collection of said semen.

Private Treaty Offering

COC

Due to the popularity of the private treaty bulls and females the last few years, we are including some again for 2021. There are close to 40 BRED HEIFERS that we feel are not quite ready to sell yet. They need 60 more days of maturity, groceries and TLC to catch up with the rest of the offering, but since you’re already in Crawford, we are going to save you the trip and offer them to you private treaty. These heifers were with the group of sale heifers until we brought them home mid-May. The same great LBW 1/2 Angus, 1/2 Corriente bulls were used on them as the heifers going through the sale ring. They are all breeds and colors and out of some of the best we have. These types of females have proven their weight in gold in the past. There are stories every year of these kind of females that pay for themselves in full within their first calf crop. These females will be located here on the ranch for your viewing convenience, along with printed information on each of them. They will be priced from $1,400 to $3,000. They will make you money, whether you keep them for 60 days to resell, or if you calve them out and reap the rewards of good COC females in your herd. We always advise you to come early, stay late and do your homework. You will find many customers who have done just that and can attest that there are bargains throughout the entirety of the offering! We will also have 20 HEAD OF 20- TO 30-MONTH-OLD HERD BULLS for sale private treaty. All different colors, breeds and ready for service! They have all passed a thorough semen and trich evaluation. These bulls can go anywhere, sight unseen. We will have calves sired by some of these bulls this fall.

We are very honored that some of the most elite and progressive club calf outfits in the country keep coming back to invest in our COC genetics!

2020 Tulsa Champion Hereford Steer Congratulations to the Sturgeon Family on making Western Oklahoma proud with your Made Right-sired Champion Hereford Steer at the 2020 Tulsa State Fair! Many thanks to Glover Cattle Co. for being volume Made Right semen buyers and crossing him on your best!

2020 Fort Worth Grand Champion Steer We would like to personally congratulate Ryder and the entire Day Family on an unprecedented win of a lifetime! It is one thing to win, but there is something even sweeter about RAISING YOUR OWN CHAMPION! The Day crew have been long time customers that we are proud to do business with. Many years ago, they purchased this steer’s grandmother as a $3,500 COC 30-06 open heifer. She has been a prolific donor within their program, with her first flush alone grossing $50,000. She has produced so many hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue that they have lost track of her earnings record. P254 has produced champions at all of the Texas majors and has even been cloned. The Days have also been volume buyers of COC Made Right semen and have taken his genetics to great heights, selling many champions and high sellers sired by him and his daughters. However, the one that has recently received all the accolades was a cross of the two COC greats — Made Right x P254, who is the mother of the 2020 Fort Worth Grand. We’ve run this steer’s pedigree back 40 years to Mr. Incredible (AHA 17957073), just for family fun (see opposite page). It is truly amazing how far this industry has come! We are overwhelmingly humbled and proud that this champion was stacked top and bottom with many COC legends, such as Made Right, Donor P254, Carpe Diem, 4114 Made, Wasp, 30-06, Donor 9929, 4114, Dakota, Tank, Timex, Cannon, 351, Tequila and probably more than we kept track of. The unfortunate fact of the matter is that there’s never enough room or space to give everyone the credit that they deserve. (Please bear with our aging minds if we have missed anyone.) Please join us in giving due praise to some very talented, longterm Cream of the Crop customers, breeders and friends for having an invested interest in this champion: The Day Family, Stan and Weston Born, Tee Knox, Curtis Graf, Mike Mimms, Kelly Munson, Bradley Hale, Gerald Haseloff, Bill Taylor, Donnie Begalka, Kent Orrell, Korky Wise and (last but definitely not least) Brad Hook…all for doing your part to achieve things most deemed impossible!

2020 SandHills Reserve Grand Champion Steer Congratulations to the Patschke Family on your COC Battleship-sired champion! Congratulations and many thanks to Bradley Hale for breeding to COC Battleship with big results, including this champion, the San Antonio Champion Simmental and the San Antonio Reserve Hereford!

2020 San Antonio Champion Angus Steer Congratulations to Jett Hale for taking this COC bred, born and raised steer all the way! Thank you for optimizing his potential. Good luck with this year’s project!

2020 San Antonio Reserve Champion Simmental Steer 2020 Fort Worth Reserve Grand Champion Steer We want to congratulate our friends The Thomas Family on a win that’s been long overdue in our books! We knew when you bought your first steer from us years ago that y’all went against the grain and were destined for greatness. Way to go out with a bang! Congratulations and hats off to our customers The Beach and Waldrip boys of Open Bar Cattle Co. for raising this powerhouse! He had in his pedigree COC greats Made Right, Carpe Diem and Outer Limits. Thank y’all for your continuous support and trusting in COC genetics!
