The future belongs to those who seize OPPORTUNITIES.
It’s always exciting putting The Revival together, making big decisions how to lot the book since we sell in numerical order. (Truth told, the lotting list is a bit of a debate, usually over coffee, that can carry on over several mornings. There’s a lot to consider with the consignors we have, and the lots they have committed. We work hard to get it right!) If you’ve been on the seats in Beaverton or bid with us on CCi, you’ll remember that THIS SALE moves along in WAVES – there is motion and energy from start to finish, and you never know for sure which lot is gonna be the CREST. If you don’t believe that’s true, stop right now and turn to page 66. Then flip backwards through the book. We could just as easily start at the end and sell in reverse!
There’s no doubt in my mind that Margie 2533 has earned the Lot 1 slot. She is the ONE FEMALE that EVERYONE gravitates to EVERY TIME!
Thru the summer, I’ve shown her to people sometimes first and sometimes last. When they’re about to leave, EVERYONE wanted to see Margie 2533 ONE MORE TIME! That’s the best compliment ever. Lot 1 is worth your trip!

Congrats to Steve on a SUPERB Lot 1! She’s an ideal example of Margie 542’s consistency and dominance. Not since GCC Augusta Pride 3127 have we had a female generate so much interest among breeders. A book could be written on the Margie 542 family. She was the most prestigious female on the tanbark when she showed with Omaha at side, winning Cow/Calf Champion at NJSS, Ohio State Fair, World Beef Expo, NAILE and the National Western, where she was also Reserve National Champion Female. Margie 542 is the only Shorthorn female to win her class three times at the North American!

The FIRST Red Knight Daughter of Marvelous Margie EVER OFFERED is a well-designed, SUPER female. Her dam has produced so many show ring winners and this February Red Knight daughter may be the BEST to date! The name of the game is to own and control UNIQUE GENETICS. Marvelous 2506 is unique! LOT 3
LOTS 4A & 4B
The pair of Direct Deposit x Marvelous Sisters are stout-made and stamped with the attention-commanding MARVELOUS LOOK. The light roan Marvelous 2530 has been many visitors’ pick of the offering. Some say she’s a little stouter than the roan Marvelous 2509. Others say 2509 has more show ring flair. All agree that both have the striking Marvelous presence that you can’t get out of your mind. Do not forget the power and performance that is coming from their sire, Show Bull of the Year Direct Deposit. We believe his daughters will be known for it.
Imagine these three heifers at the same stage as their maternal sister Marvelous DM 2426, pictured left at 2025 NJSS in Grand Island. If you saw her there (or here last year, or Louisville, or OKC) chances are you haven’t forgotten her. WHATACOW!

Dam of Direct Deposit, 2023-24 Show Bull of the Year
BFS Margie LL 950 was the crowd favorite at Louisville and Oklahoma City, and was named Reserve Grand Champion at the 2021 Cattlemen’s Congress.

This former show heifer is an even more impressive cow. She is the mother of Direct Deposit, 2024 Cattlemen’s Congress Grand Champion. Her first daughter, sired by Flash, was Reserve Grand Champion Bred & Owned Heifer at the 2023 NJSS, followed by Reserve Grand Champion of the 2024 EDGE Show at OKC.

She is a full sister to the 5th Overall Champion Heifer at Iowa State Fair last year who was the high seller in our fall sale. We planned to keep this one, but Steve asked…… so here she is!

Crystal Clear not only has the style that we would expect from her great dam, Lady Crystal 2105, she also has the base width, substance of bone, power to pack a punch, and extra dimension through her center rib that is so important to the modern day show ring. This heifer can definitely hang with any big-time heifers in the country. I can’t wait to see her in your string!
The dam of Lot 16B is the full sister to dam of Lot 16A, and both heifers are sired by Direct Deposit which is sure to create some lively conversation, always a favorite pastime of The Revival. Probably goes without saying which female was my pick when 2104 and 2105 were featured in the 2021 Revival Sale. Dave DeLisle got a great female in Lady Crystal 2104. She is a power cow and showy enough to turn a few heads. I believe 21N, her daughter by Direct Deposit, can be described the same way.

Everyone needs at least ONE Lady Crystal 434P in their herd!
Here is your opportunity to create your own genetic package. This daughter of Right Direction is an own daughter of Lady Crystal 434P-6. And when a female looks as good as Lady Crystal 1252 does you can expect that any of the four matings we’re offering will produce an absolute GEM. 1252’s eggs in The Revival last year sold at the top of the sale.
We believe all four sires will work very well on 1252. (We have a Red Knight heifer on the ground that is a smoker.) All four are getting very scarce, so latch on to this opportunity. Note that we’ll allow you to take 4 eggs from 1 sire, or 2 eggs each from 2 different sires.
THE REVIVAL SALE ORIGIN STORY
We were inspired to start The Great Shorthorn Revival on a sale weekend trip in the Fall of 2001 with Clint Tomson, then 92 years old. Clint was a Shorthorn man from birth. His interest in the Tomson family’s top-ranked breeding program led to proficiency in livestock judging, expert salesmanship and, later, leadership of the breed. He started his career at Shorthorn World as a fieldman, and after a few years he was selected to fill the post of Executive Secretary of the American Shorthorn Association. From 1941 to 1951, Clint provided countless ideas and innovations which truly created the heyday years of the reds, whites and roans. He left the association to join his boyhood Shorthorn friend Frank Harding and his father F. W. Harding in forming American Livestock Insurance Co., but Clint never left behind his love for the breed he helped make great.
For hours on that trip we quizzed Clint about “the golden days of Shorthorns.” And he answered, in-depth and in detail, as only Clint could! At one point Steve asked, “Clint, how are we going to get Shorthorn breeders to focus again on the cow families that made the breed great?” Without hesitation and for about an hour (almost without taking a breath!), Clint advised a marketing strategy that in six years has proven to work.
He started off saying, “Steve, you’re going to have to create an EConomIC oPPoRTunITy. you can’t just tell people that cow families are important and that following the great bloodlines can be profitable. you have to show them! And show them right in their pocketbook, where it counts the most!” The Great Shorthorn Revival was born!
We are always asked about the theme of the sale and enjoy sharing missouri breeder Dave Lorenz’ article reprinted from 1965’s 50th Anniversary issue of Shorthorn World.
On my office wall I have a color lithograph produced in 1893. It shows 4,000 range cattle at a waterhole near Amarillo. I keep this picture before me so I will not forget my primary objective as a Shorthorn breeder… which is…to breed bulls sound enough, big enough and strong enough, with feet and bone enough to meet the approval of men who run commercial cows from 200 to 20,000 head.
Every four years these ranchers put one million new bulls into their herds. The Hereford breeders get 90 per cent of this business. I doubt if we Shorthorn breeders get 2 percent of this business.
History shows that the Herefords just kept on coming. Today, 18 million cows in the ranges west of the Missouri river look like they’re 100 percent Hereford, though way back there, most of them had a strong Shorthorn cross in them.
But, today, the ranchers are looking for answers to their very real problems: cancer-eye, loss of size, too little milk and, that other “unmentionable” problem, which is still far too prevalent.
At Denver in January, my son Pete introduced me to a rancher from west Texas who needed 70 Shorthorn bulls.
I had to tell him very frankly that I didn’t know where he could buy 70 Shorthorn bulls old enough to thrive, and get cows in calf where they run one head to 20 acres of pasture. But, after a discussion, I sold this rancher an idea…and, together, we’re giving it a try.
Remember, he has to have pigmentation, and he has to get calves. We offered to furnish two, two-year-old bulls, if he would furnish 50 selected young cows, and put them together in one pasture. We would cost the calves at weaning time, at market price. Then, we would split the overage that they should bring as bull calves.
He accepted this offer. We sent him down two good, strong, sound-footed bulls that would have sold for considerably more than ordinary range bulls. (After all, we wanted the first Shorthorn bulls in his neighborhood in 40 years to make a good impression!) After four weeks acclimatization, these two bulls are now with the cows…two bulls and 50 cows in 1,300 acres of pasture!
What happened? This man had been too busy at Denver-time to visit our Shorthorn farm and look our bulls over. He simply said, “Just send me the bulls.” Well, after seeing the bulls, he decided to come to Kansas City and see the herd that had produced them. Result? He is getting enthusiastic about breeding Shorthorn-pigmented
Hereford-cross bull calves to sell by the hundreds to ranchers in his area, and in Old Mexico.
Why? His neighbor-rancher friends and some Mexican cattle people have already visited his ranch. He has shown them these two Shorthorn bulls in with 50 cows. He has told them what he is doing and why. Most of his visitors have become interested in his project because they too are experiencing serious cancer-eye trouble.
He is now considering how he might breed 1,000 cows next year, to get the same result.
Now, “What’s this Shorthorn Revival Business?”
A big portion of an entire generation of commercial cow men has grown old without ever seeing much but white-faced cattle. Our friend in west Texas said he hadn’t seen a herd of registered Shorthorn cattle since he last visited Sni-A-Bar at Kansas City in 1940! 25 years ago!
When the cow business is good, ranchers buy more bulls than when business isn’t good. They are looking for bulls that will solve their problems. They also have to get their cows pregnant.
But, if they can’t find bulls that will solve their problems, they will have no choice but to take the best bulls available. Unfortunately for the Shorthorn breed, don’t think we have enough bulls available to get one extra thousand Shorthorn bulls into this great, open market for replacement bulls.
The Charolais people are trying. The black Angus people are trying. The red Angus people are trying. The Santa Gertrudis, Brangus, Beefmaster people are trying.
We, at Kansas City are trying too! We’ve been building the strength of our herd from within. We’ve been adding the strong bulls and outstanding females we believe will help us. Sound feet and legs are an absolute must. We believe we must breed the kind of
strength and quality into our Shorthorns…that you should breed into your Shorthorns…to make bulls and their calves strong enough to be preferred by ranchers, and commercial cattlemen…and take some bull business away from these other breeds.
You can do this too. If you aren’t already breeding the strong kind of Shorthorns with strong bone and sound feet and legs that will produce bulls that will be preferred by commercial cattle people…don’t let the Great Shorthorn Revival pass you by.
The Great Shorthorn Revival is here. But, everybody has to do his part if we are going to get the business away from these other breeds. They’re just not going to drop dead because our breed awakens to this great need.
The present commercial cow men…those with 200 or more cows…will be the calf producers to supply the calves to be finished mostly by others. As world finished beef demand starts to exceed United States calf production, our American calf producers will have already discovered that they can moreprofitably sell heavier calves at weaning time than in recent years. They can get heavier calves in only two ways:
1. They can creep-feed high cost grain.
2. They can infuse Shorthorn blood, and get it FREE!
The need for strong Shorthorn bulls is 100 times greater than your and our capacity to produce at this time. But, opportunity is where the NEED is…and because the need is great, the opportunity is great!
Don’t let the Great Shorthorn Revival pass you by!
Start today! If you need a new bull, travel farther, look harder, pay more…but insist on the bull you need. Don’t settle for a substitute for a good bull. Pick up the big, strong females you occasionally have the opportunity to buy. The kind that will produce a calf every year, and give enough milk to make a job of the calf. Start today to build up the strength of your herd. Competition demands that all of us Shorthorn people produce bulls that will sire bull calves strong enough to be preferred by commercial cattlemen all over America!
Don’t let the Great Shorthorn Revival pass you by!
Consignors work together to offer...
The greatest variety of desirable, marketable Shorthorn genetics from proven cow families. A wide range of Shorthorn investment options that will improve your herd, and increase in value. An opportunity to see the results of cutting edge genetics to help make future mating decisions. A networking event to create profitable connections with leading breeders and marketing agents. A fun, memorable learning experience, with good cattle and good people, that you and your family will enjoy!

FEATURED
IVF FLUSH
The ONLY OPPORTUNITY to purchase a flush of EMILY 302 ahead of next year’s breeding season.
Emily is just now entering the donor pen here at Bar N after a very successful show career. She dominated the upper Midwest last summer earning Champion Shorthorn Female nine times. At the 2025 National Junior Shorthorn Show, she was the very popular Division X Cow/Calf Champion, followed by Third Overall at the 2025 Minnesota State Fair 4-H Show.
Emily is a game changer when it comes to adding rib shape and dimension along with a dynamic front end. She’s elegant and powerful at the same time! She has an absolute perfect foot and rear leg structure and is at her very best when she’s on the move. Also, in a world full of little ones, she’s a bit different.
If you’re looking to add size in your program, this flush may be your ticket – she weighed-in at 1,625 lbs. in July while raising her January bull calf!
The Lot 19 featured flush of the 2025 Revival will be the only chance to purchase a flush ahead of the next breeding season. When you study Emily’s unique pedigree the list of mating options will be lengthy. We look forward to creating offspring of Emily 302 sired by the bull that tops your list!
• Donor is due to calve in January and will be available shortly after for IVF using Trans Ova technology.

Nine-time Champion Shorthorn Heifer 2025 NJSS Division X Cow/Calf Champion 2025 Minnesota State Fair 4-H Show Third Overall
As the ONLY 24-year consignor to The Revival, we ALWAYS bring a special one to Michigan. This young gal has ALL the style, thickness and pattern to develop into a powerful show heifer and donor prospect. We’re pleased to be offering one of the first Look Ahead calves to sell. The fact that she’s out of the Denver Champion Ruby 326 proves the pressure we were willing to put on this great young sire. Our vision of the Look Ahead x Ruby 326 mating was realized – prepare to become OBSESSED with Lot 20!
“PBR” has been a barn and pasture favorite, and was a star on the tanbark in her first outing to the Michigan State Fair where she was Calf Champion and Champion Shorthorn Female. We now have firsthand knowledge of the Blooded Rubies’ success as show heifers and respected donors. Gems like these are easy to appreciate. First impressions are often differentiated by the focus of the beholder. Great cattlemen will appreciate the flawless design of Lot 21, while great investors will design a flawless plan to appreciate her value. Either way, be sure to stay focused on Kevin during the auction so he doesn’t miss YOUR level of APPRECIATION!

In 2022, Lot 29’s first heifer calf sold through The Revival to Joe Davis of Michigan for $14,500. Last year, two of her heifer calves were featured in the Revival Louisville Elite sale. Lot 3 sold for $ 8,000 to the Walnut Creek Cattle Company of Minnesota. Lot 4 sold to DeLisle Farms of Michigan for $8,500. She has also been a great producer of embryos over the years as a pillar of our donor pen. We have retained two daughters of this great cow and that’s why we’re willing to let this prime 5-year-old go. If you have studied the Sara Rose cow family over the years, her mother was a tremendous show heifer for Little Cedar (pictured on page 29). Sara Rose 2001 is due to calve shortly after the sale to Direct Deposit. She has a perfect udder, is a proven producer of highly sought after genetics…not a hard decision. This is an awesome opportunity for a growing breeding that wants to step up and start an ET program or a seasoned ”pro” wanting to add star power to their donor pen.

A look back at the foundations of two different branches of the Ka’Ba T90 Rose family that have made history at the Revival and created progress for the breed.
Seductive Rose is the daughter of NPS Irish Rose 542 (daughter of T90) and is the third dam of Lot 30. Rose Mary’s Goose is the daughter of the celebrated NPS Desert Rose 004 (granddaughter of T90) and the dam of Lots 31 and 32.

Daphne 36A and Rosebud 2104 on the bottom side of Lot 30’s pedigree were Sydney’s last two show heifers.

The opportunity to fulfill your “premonition” is here and now. Rose is one of the first Look Aheads to sell at auction.
A full sister to her dam, NBS Nelly Rose, was Champion Shorthorn Heifer of the MI Shows circuit in 2023. Her daughter was the Overall Michigan Bred & Owned Heifer in MI Shows in 2025. Both heifers were successfully campaigned by Molly Lake.

When Rose Mary 2181 was exhibited she definitely won her share of banners, and we noticed that all the judges made a similar comment. The most creative version was: “ She’s a COW walking around in SHOW HEIFER clothing!” Of course, we took it as the highest compliment! Rose Mary 2181 has never been flushed but we believe she has the potential to succeed as a donor. She’s carrying the service of Look Ahead for a March calf and that’s quite a bonus.

Matriarch of the Augusta Pride Dynasty
Lot 37 has earned Adalynn and Alden Vaughn’s GOLD STAR for disposition & lead-ability. She’s well on her way to being show-ready!
Cow Power TO GO! Potranca 2423 displays dimension, width and depth and has all the right angles to carry herself with a comfortable stride when set in motion. We purchased a Revival pregnancy resulting in this heifer’s granddam. With the Potranca 2002 x Hector mating, we produced this heifer’s dam who is very similar to 2423. There is good share of Argentine breeding in her dam and, along with this heifer being sired by 1872, she has outstanding numbers. I will safely say this heifer is kid broke. On photo day, the crew all wanted her to stick around the picture pen to keep the other females calm, cool and collected. And she did!
Argentine 100% Shorthorn genetics crossed on our North American bloodlines produce GOOD CATTLE!
This Hector x Red Reward first-calf heifer will write a new chapter in our herd, specifically in the Royal Ruby cow family. We planned this mating for first-time easy calving and ended up with one of our highest WDA at weaning time and an over 12- inch REA when we collected yearling data. 432 is so deep and sound, yet with enough look that she has COW written all over her. She’s top 15% of the breed for $BMI and $CPI. To top it off, she is bred to the super exciting, roan, easy calving, top 5% $BMI, top 1% $CPI bull, Byland Elite. The first 15 sons of his to sell last spring averaged just under $10K. This mating will make you money!
There is power in this pedigree! 1872, Cabrera and Mr Gus 80C, along with the Kendra cow family, which started with a purchase of a “sleeper lot” at a Revival sale. Kendra (Lot 40’s granddam) was the widest cow ever. We purchased her as a bred female and she became a donor for us. We bred her to Cabrera and got the dam of this heifer, who is a big-bodied female also. 2429 will only get better as she matures. She is safe to Byland Elite which we think will be a good match. She has been a real sweet gal and is usually the first one to push her way in to get combed.

WHAT’S A
WestonMary?
Weston Dynamo was known as “the maternal powerhouse” in the ‘70s. Bill Marsden gave Steve 5 ampules in the early ‘80s with the insightful advice, “Wait about 20 years and breed him to the best cow you’ve got.” Steve chose Mary 102 for the retro mating in almost the exact time frame advised. In 2006, we introduced our maternal genetic treasure, Little Cedar Weston Mary. She is a cowman’s cow to the nth degree, and her production has made a lasting impact on the LCCC program and the breed.

Now that we’ve called your attention to this week’s vocabulary word, the next step is to establish the potential of this December bull’s performance and style as the TURNING POINT you’ve been working toward in your breeding program. The Lookout sons are way good, and the two we are offering in this sale are the best yet! We can’t wait to hear the results of Lookout’s first crop at Jay Benham’s Stone Springs Shorthorns where he’s now in service as the resident changemaker. When you see Gun Smoke and Landmark, Jay, you’ll know your trip Up North (to Michigan in February!) to evaluate and purchase Lookout was “on the money!” Landmark is 2290’s first natural calf. She is a tremendous, coming three-year-old, a daughter of the phenomenal Dream On 5158 and Hot Commodity. We’re gonna add two more vocabulary words for Dream On 2290 and her Lookout son, Landmark: WAY and GOOD!

Last fall, a full sister to THIS heifer pregnancy commanded $100K in Cates Farms’ fall sale. A maternal sister topped their spring sale for $70K.

This Long Look x Mona Lisa show heifer surely has a POSITIVE ROLE MODEL in her immediate family – make that two! Her dam, Mona Lisa Reward 782, was Supreme Champion of 2018 Keystone International, followed by Reserve Champion of the NAILE Junior Show. In 2019, 782 gathered up Grand Champion at BOTH Denver and Fort Worth. The summer before 782’s impressive campaign, her full sister (Mona Lisa Reward 780) had earned the coveted crown 2018 NJSS Grand Champion!
This is our inaugural consignment to the Revival Sale and we knew we needed to offer our best. The dam of Lot 49 has produced many champions, highlighted by Samantha VanVorhis’ Supreme Champion at the 2022 Keystone International. We believe N509’s banner background coupled with her depth, overall thickness, and quiet disposition will be hard to beat at any level!
Lot 49 kicked off her show career at the 2025 Michigan State Fair over Labor Day and you can see the purple banners she generated! More so, our sale heifer created family fun for the three “Sisung Boy” cousins, and another on the way in early October. We “Sisung Sisters” came up through AJSA, and the friendships, knowledge, confidence, and “heart” we gained through competing with our cattle (and in ALL the contests!) would be hard to surpass in most any other youth activity. Lot 49 is a perfect project for a committed girl or boy who also wants it ALL from the “family-friendly” Shorthorn experience!

I Division
Hello everyone. I am Bryce Heverly from Michigan. Michigan may be known for the “Motown Sound,” but today I’m going to tell you about a groovy breed of cattle that’s been around for even longer – Shorthorns. And I’m going to tell you WHY I think they’re totally “groovy!”
First, let me tell you a little bit about where these cattle come from. Shorthorns have been in the United States since 1783, and they are one of the oldest cattle breeds in America! They originally came from England. The American Shorthorn Association started in 1872, which means this breed has a long history of being cared for and recognized by farmers and ranchers.
Now, you might be wondering, what makes these cattle so special? Well, let me tell you! Shorthorns are known for being calm and easy to handle. This makes them perfect for families or anyone who works with cattle. They’re not the kind of cattle that get easily upset or are hard to control. They’re gentle and friendly, and could do the electric slide, which is groovy!
But it doesn’t stop there. Shorthorns are also really good parents! They are known for their “calving ease,” which means the females give birth to calves with fewer complications, and they take care of them really well. This makes them great parents, and it’s super important for farmers who want healthy, strong calves. The moms and dads are calm, and the babies are healthy and live a long time so they can have fun at the Y-M-C-A (dance)!
Shorthorns are also great because they grow fast and are efficient. This means they put on weight quickly and don’t waste a lot of food or energy. Shorthorns are known for their fast and steady growth, which is great for farmers.

Recipient: Red Baldy
Recently I noticed Mona Lisa 932’s full sib embryos were being offered in the Bratcher’s online sale. I knew I had to have them. Jackpot! When I put in the eggs, more than a little LUCK bestowed TWO heifer pregnancies. The Bratchers also have one, but these three are IT. There are no more!
Put this Lot 50 heifer pregnancy on your shopping list and plan to ride along with us in promotion and marketing of three Maxim x Mona Lisa show heifer prospects. The Red Baldy recip is terrific – VALUE!
Another groovy thing about Shorthorns is that they are adaptable to all climates. They work well, whether it’s hot, cold, or somewhere in between. Shorthorns have been raised in all kinds of environments, and they handle it like pros. That’s another reason they’re so dependable, and can do the Sprinkler or do the Robot (dance)!
To sum it up, Shorthorn cattle are calm, adaptable, gentle, and hardworking. They’re great for families because they’re easy to handle and are great parents. They’re also fast-growing and efficient, making them a great choice for farmers. And, they’ve been around for centuries, proving that they are one of the most reliable and “groovy” cattle breeds out there! Thank you for listening!

Myrtle Bo 2525 is very, very hard to sell. But, if you want to be in this business for the long haul, you’ve always gotta sell the good ones! In fact, ALL of our 2025 heifer calves at LCCC sell on September 27. Including this very, very special one!
Study 2525’s pedigree. Notice that the great Miss Myrtle Bo 305, shown by Tammy Gottschalk, is her maternal granddam. She would be 32 years old today. (I’m talking about 305. Not you, Tammy!) The bottom side of this pedigree is truly vintage Shorthorn. I’m sure there won’t be anything out there competing in these times that’s bred like this heifer is! She will show, of course. But, I believe 2525 to be the ULTIMATE COW PROSPECT. Red Knight brings out the best in females of any era. Red Knight on a Sonny daughter seems to produce some of the best. Lot 52 is the BEST of the best!
Notice I’m retaining half embryo interest in Lot 52 and the four other heifers in this sale that I cannot replicate. There are so many NOW matings for Myrtle Bo 2525 in my head that will make the most of her “throwback” genetic power. I am gonna sell this good one, and I’m gonna stay involved in her future!

ELITE OPPORTUNITY to purchase the FULL SISTER to the 2023 NJSS 5TH OVERALL Bred & Owned Purebred Female, now working as a VALUED DONOR for Leemon Stock Farm
Kaitlyn Berg’s extremely competitive Bred & Owned heifer is the full sister to Lot 54, Myrtle Bo PP 2515. Mylie Myrtle Bo was Division I Champion at Louisville and Oklahoma City, 5th Overall in the Bred & Owned Show at 2023 NJSS, and Division Champion in both Open and Junior Shows at Kansas City that same year. Lot 54 has the same look and design as her sister. She is tremendous through her lower quarter, has an awesome turn to her rib shape, and is absolutely stunning through her front end. Don’t sleep on this one! In the right show barn this heifer will be deadly come next year.
Myrtle Bo 1876 is the full sister to the dam of Dream Weaver. (And she is DS-F.) The Red Knight daughter of the great Bo’s Traveling is a treasure. Two daughters sold into two prominent Canadian herds, Head for the Hills and Hill Haven. Her first bull calf was a NJSS class winner and sold to DeLisle Farms for a herd sire. “King” is getting the job done! Investment tip: 1876 heifer embryos by The Goat may very well be her greatest of all time!

Annie descends from the prolific Breathless and Breathtaker females featured in past Revival Sales. Glamorous Annie earned Senior Champion honors with a bull calf at side at the 2022 Toronto Royal. In 2024, her daughter Glamorous Jazzy claimed the same award, as well as Grand Champion. When you come to Beaverton you will not miss this female! She will be one the judges won’t miss either. Red Knight cows are making their mark in the breed and this Annie will be completely unique in the U.S.

Daughter of Show Bull of the Year Currency
Dam is Maternal Sister to National Champion Lookout
The dam of Lot 65 is a daughter of the dam of Lookout. The strength and versatility of Cumberland 115E comes thru in 2214’s mating to Show Bull of the Year, Currency. His influence is evident from a beautiful roan color pattern to the style and substance you expect from his herd bull producing dam, Lilac 1877. Cumberland 14N carries it off in a feminine, fancy and FRESH presentation. She may show, but she’ll certainly grow into a female that will do her famous Cumberland family proud. Here’s a heifer with a big future ahead.

NBS LAYLA XG
I imagine that Layla grew really tired of hearing ALL the BARN TALK about Daphne 36A’s success over the years and she finally announced…
“Hold My Beer!”
After three very successful flushes when she stepped into the donor pen, followed by her outstanding first ET calf crop, Layla XG is proud to introduce, Lot 66A, Layla’s Flashy Boots who will most definitely SPEAK for her Mama. Boldly sprung, big-topped, feminine and so very agile. With unique coloring and full-length white boots she “flashes” the IT FACTOR – something totally out of our control but genuinely part of her aura. Even better, she is already hanging banners as the Champion Shorthorn Plus and Third Overall Female of the 2025 Michigan State Fair. So, Steve & Julie, I am siding with Layla about our first Shorthorn Plus offering in the Revival...Hold My Beer!
We’ve also consigned Lot 66B for the contending bidder, or anyone who wants to make their own “flashy” Layla daughters! Take this opportunity to put your prefix on a ShorthornPlus mating that has proven to produce quality cattle. Bring her another beer, Layla will tell her story through the achievements of her offspring!

Dream Lady
Saxonburg, PA
When Steve mentioned that he was looking for a couple of really good Pluses for the fall Revival Sale, I knew exactly which one I wanted to pitch to him. Quick story. This heifer’s granddam, Dream Lady 4124, came from CYT as a show heifer for Jay. I asked Pete Hunter to get her ready for NJSS and he suggested breeding her to a calving-ease bull to make a ShorthornPlus. The Mercedes-Benz daughter 1605 has been a phenomenal producer for us, most notably, the 3rd Overall Bred & Owned ShorthornPlus Champion at 2020 NJSS in Abilene,Texas shown by Henry. By the way, NJSS is in Abilene again next year. History may repeat itself with this half sister to the outstanding 3rd Overall Plus! Direct Deposit’s powerful influence mated to the Mercedes-Benz Plus female is astounding. I love this heifer’s shape, dimension and substance through the center portion of her body. Lot 67 is an outstanding contender for next year’s ShorthornPlus shows. Added Bonus: she is absolutely kid friendly and perfect for a showman of any age or level of experience.
