Volume 5
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2 BURKE RANCH, GENOA, NEBRASKA
Welcome! SUCCESS. We all know there are many ways to measure success. No doubt one person’s will be much different than another’s. Throughout the years we have been very fortunate here to experience much success at the Burke Ranch and with our family. This September we celebrated the life of my mother and to my children and many others, “Gramma Anne.” I selected Tim McGraw’s song “Standing Room Only” to be played. It talks about how at the end of your life, if there is “Standing Room Only” at your funeral, you have had a very successful life. No doubt Gramma Anne was successful. Switching gears to our sale. I feel like the great number of people we are fortunate enough to call our friends, partners, and customers are a true Cowboy Kind Success Story! We are truly humbled by the number of our customers, and specifically their kids, who have stepped up to help us make this sale and all our programs a success. We could never do it without you. Rest assured, we will be doing everything we can to ensure your success as well. No matter how you measure it. We feel extremely fortunate to be able to offer you these cattle and genetics—especially at such an exciting time in the cattle market. We all want to thank you for taking the time to view the offering and hopefully be with us sale day. You will see many Cowboy Kind Success Stories. Our greatest wish is to help you create yours! We are excited to see you all and invite you all for a great lunch before the sale. If you can stick around after the sale, we always look forward to visiting and having some drinks with friends new and old! This year when you come, look forward to enjoying a warm and much better heated sale facility. And when you do, look up and thank Gramma Anne for one more way she wanted to show her hospitality to all that come in her barn—kids and calves alike! Thanks for coming! Respectfully,
Tim Burke and Family

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
All animals will sell to the highest bidder. Any disputes or challenges regarding bidding will be settled by the auctioneer, and his decision will be final. Announcements made sale day from the auction block will take precedence over printed statements. Terms of the sale are cash or good check, payable immediately upon the conclusion of the sale and before the animals will be moved. Seller will reserve the right to require a certified check as settlement before releasing any cattle. Any and all credit or refunds on cattle purchases must be approved with individual owners prior to the sale and are only to be used on cattle owned by that specific individual consignor. Credit not previously approved will result in a no-sale on that animal(s). The above terms and conditions of the sale shall constitute a contract between buyer and seller and shall be equally binding on both. Animals that are resold following purchase in the sale shall constitute a separate transaction, and the rights and obligations of the two parties connected thereto are not covered by these terms and conditions. All sales are final.
GUARANTEE
Bred females have been satisfactorily examined for pregnancy. They are guaranteed bred at sale time and are assumed to 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, expressed or implied, is made to a female’s ability to produce transferable embryos with the exception of those selling as “open and ready to flush.”
FLUSH RIGHTS
The seller reserves the rights to two (2) successful flushes of no less than six (6) eggs per flush on all females selling. Flushing will be done at the seller’s expense and the buyer’s convenience.
TRUCKING
Don’t let trucking get in the way of your purchases. We have trucks coming in and out all the time and travel a lot ourselves. We are very conscientious of keeping costs reasonable. We work with only the very best in taking care of your animals while in route. Expenses incurred are the responsibility of the purchaser, who should furnish shipping instructions at the time of settlement. It is recommended that insurance be obtained. Insurance will be available for purchase at the clerk’s desk sale day. Courtney Lovett — (402) 984-3133 Pat Lyons — (918) 287-7267 Pat will have a ground load semi at the sale for bigger groups or central location drops.

Chianina division lot 7 Lots 7 and 8… Cody and I have two families in Indiana whom we consider to be some of our very best friends. They are both fierce competitors who swear they think differently. You can imagine our surprise when we saw they consigned us full sisters in-blood! “Who Dat Lady,” owned by Shaeffer and Tice, is one of the most dominant pedigrees and cows on the planet. When you look at the heifers, you will see, however, that one of the big reasons is versatility! These two females are both extremely good, and extremely different! Lot 7 is bred to the legend, and Lot 8 is bred to one of the up-and-coming Maine bulls in the breed. You decide—you can’t go wrong!

She has produced several high selling steers and heifers, including Lot 11 in this year’s Simmons Cattle sale to the Gensini family in Illinois. She has the type, she has the breeding and Trae has her bred to Chosen 1! This really represents The Cowboy Kind!

When the guys at The Cowboy Kind asked me to put something in their sale, I didn’t hold back! This four-year-old is averaging over $10,000 on her calves so far in her short career. Lot 24 is dual registered MaineTainer and Shorthorn Plus. While this mating may be a little unconventional for this sale, remember the 2025 Shorthorn Junior National will be held here in Nebraska!

Lots 31–33… Here is a great way to start the Simmental division. Brent Nisley sent us these three outstanding flush mate sisters. All bred sexed female Standout! When you analyze these females, you will appreciate their phenotype. More importantly, you have to appreciate their genetic makeup. The Oracle cattle stand out as top production pieces in almost every sale I attend. Their dam is a fertile, big numbered embryo producer with a load of versatility. Her Good As It Gets daughter sold in Mitch Daake’s fall sale for $17,000! These three baldy heifers will be a great addition to any herd!

Watch the video, call the consultants, ask anyone—this mating is FOR REAL! Sometimes you just miss them in the sort. If pictured, she’d be an obvious sale feature. We bred her to Zeus naturally and plan on doing more of that. Look at the heifers on this sale. The Angel family has been a mainstay here. Again, here is a really versatile pedigree. We love the Remedy cattle and are excited to get them in production! Maternal sisters sell as Lots 110 and 111.
Also bred early to our Zeus bull, 238K is the result of the Lot 1 and top selling female from our 2021 sale. “Huxley,” as she is known, was campaigned and managed very successfully by Braysen Miller and family. Jason Spotanski purchased her to add to his arsenal, and we are fortunate enough to run her here at Burke Ranch. We love what this female represents for the future!

The way we lotted these, we really did save some of the best for last in this bred division! Lot 66 comes from the same cow family as the Lot 58 female and truly is a sale feature. Study this one. Hard to punch a lot of holes in her, and she’s bred to the King! Buy with confidence.

Beautiful and feminine featured with the neck extension you have to appreciate. Buy with confidence here!
There is quite a story behind the dam of Lola and Lyla. The Angelica 33H donor was raised in our program and selected by Hartmans for their female sale. Great friend and cattleman Al Bruhn purchased her there. When Al’s health forced him to sell his cows, I was consulting the sale and bought her back. Angelica is an ETR Blitz daughter. We have used the Blitz bull extensively here and feel he is one of the most underused bulls in the business. Not only will he make this kind of females, but his daughters will also make big time steers! By the way, we at Burke Cattle are glad to see Al Bruhn back in the business and back in good health again!

We lost a calf a short time later and got her a new mother for the summer. After an obvious slow start, she has really come together.

When you study this heifer’s build and pedigree, you will find a lot to like. She is super sound, wide pinned and big barreled with a neck that ties in high out of her shoulder. A Bankroll heifer was just named Supreme Female in Kansas City this year. She descends from the famed Honey cow that was no stranger to the backdrop, claiming Grand Champion at the Royal and Reserve in Louisville. When I pulled up her pedigree, R007 has 163 progeny registered. Some of the best breeders in the business are using these genetics—you should be too!

If you want to add performance and power and make a purebred, this one will do it. Think of what she could do bred to a Char-cross club calf bull! Big time donor female by Who Da Man behind her for that extra shot of look and performance.

This heifer just keeps coming. She is a maternal sister to the Rebel daughter that went to Wayne and Barb Ohlrichs’ great program last year for $25,000. Study the pictures, and then go look at this female. 925G is stamping them! Big, soft center body, well designed from all angles and a big, stout foot. I’m willing to bet by sale time she BS Rebel Yell 113K makes everyone’s short list. $25,000 maternal sister

If you know our programs, you remember the Melania female that Jami Hoblyn campaigned from the Stoltz family. I really feel this one is built for the long haul. Next level built and bred. Her dam finished her show career by winning the Junior MaineTainer show at the American Royal. This one has the right pieces to accomplish those same kinds of goals. More importantly, what a breeding piece to work with!

The Tecumseh cattle are on fire! There’s good reason why. He’s putting cattle out there with the look to gather banners and the function to gather dollars! Way out there mating for us, but Cody and I both believe in AK’s Lizzo cow sired by the 44% Limmy bull Xcessive Force. That unfortunately doesn’t leave enough in her for the Limmy classes, but she still transmitted her big time quality!

We could make a compelling argument that we saved our best for last. Our Zeus bull is flat getting it done. Look for more to come on him. His pedigree is impeccable. Now for Lucia. Different class for these last two, being the babies of the bunch. Lots of class for this female! She walks around here like she owns the place. Her dam is a full sib to the Alf ’s State Fair Grand Champion in ’21 and Vrbka’s Cornhusker Showdown Grand Champion Steer in ’22.
