W e l com e Friends, I’ve known Mike Huston for a few years now and have always been impressed with his drive and desire to breed and offer consistent, quality-bred cattle in volume. Volume, that’s the key word in that statement. Every sale this fall will offer a half dozen or so really nice ones that could make an impact in the right man’s hands. Where at Huston Cattle Company I believe you can go fifty deep on bred heifers and young cows that can truly be herd changers. Franchise females, the kind of that fortunes can be built off of.

The cattle and grain markets are going to stay strong for quite a while and it makes as much sense to invest in good quality livestock as any opportunity out there. A core group of these females, in an aggressive program that utilizes embryo transplant may generate hefty profits for their new owner.

Visit with Mike or myself and we will be happy to share with you some of the many success stories customers have had with his cattle. Study this sale book and come to Roseville prepared to invest in your programs future. You won’t regret it. As always if I can assist in any way, please feel free to contact me.

Thank You Kevin Mears 937-533-0169

Lot 1 HUS TO N R 12 Hanson (Ice Pick x OCC Anchor) W41 HF Bando 1961 x Angus May 2010 Bred May 20-28 to BC Classic Exposed to New Look 101 x Panda Sons PA GE 4

What a picture to start off the 2011 Heart of the Herd sale catalog. I told Mears to be ready the second she walked in the pen. The great ones always stick it within the first few seconds. Super Freak, as Mears refers to her as, is by far the youngest heifer in the sale.

What she gives up in age to the other breds, she more than surpasses in quality. This one will be heard from again and I’m sure it will be sooner than later.

Where do you start! A full sib to the $38,000 Denver hit LONG TIME COMING. Also a full sib to the Meyer heifer that brought $15,000 for 1/2 interest in last year’s auction. When the smoke all settles I really don’t know which one of Panda’s 24 calves thus far I like the best! But I will say this – R26 has a twinkle in her eye that none of the others have had.

Be prepared for the fast track if you get behind the wheel of this one!!

I know its been a terrible summer for you guys, in regards to the drought, but she can stay at the transplant facility for $5/day. She is that good. This heifer could make your Charloias bulls famous!

This is one of, if not the best Aftershock bred heifer we have ever offered at public auction!

She is also the only Afteshock bred heifer in the sale. Everyone has finally seen just how influential these dams are.

R11 marks the first Irish Whiskey we have ever sold at a HCC Sale. I chuckled to myself when I wrote the footnote thinking how in the hell are you going to top this one? Folks, based on what you hear & see happening in our industry, one thing is pretty constant, the influence of Irish Whiskey. If there is a better Whiskey bred selling anywhere this fall/winter I would like to be the first to see her!! Buckle Up!!

I guess if we are going to sell one great Whiskey we might as well sell two great ones.

This bred was raised by a very good friend of ours, Dana Pruess, of Iowa. Dana and his brother bought a handful of cows from us and raised a few of these heifers! Congrats my friend! If it were not for R11, R13 would blow your mind. This is one hell of a pair of breds!!

Folks, I made mention in last years catalog that I was really excited about keeping my Monopolys for females. Once you take the time to study this heifer in person, as well as her pictures, I’m sure you will feel the same as I do. This heifer is good enough to have been in anyone’s showstring. This heifer is worth every penny she brings!!

Well, while we are talking about great ones we might want to throw R4’s name in the mix.

I can’t help but throw a little Cheap Trick semen in every year. With results like this I doubt I stop anytime soon. There is a reason she made the cut to have her mug in the ads.

Like I have told everyone, I don’t have a favorite, but if you don’t make an attempt to own this one, I don’t want to hear about it for YEARS to come.

For those of you who might not recognize the grand sire Flex, he is a Whiplash son raised by my good friends, the LeClaires, of Riverton, WY. This heifer has been one of my favorites since weaning last fall. I truely believe Monopoly mated back to these maternal sires will make daughters that will etch their name in the history books. The sky is the limit with these genetics.

The third and final Hanson daughter. I sure wish I hadn’t used so many new bulls – I’m not one to mention names – but I’d rather had more clean up calves!!

This Charloias composite is a BIG TIMER! Her mother was our 3rd high seller in LOT 21 • 2009 HCC SALE the 2009 sale. The quality was obviously passed down a generation. This pedigree brings a little different buzz to the auction! I really like this heifer in terms of bone and build.

This heifer has striking similarities to the R10 Monopoly bred. I see heifers like this one in 3 or 4 years as impact females in the club calf world. When you get the pleasure of seeing these cattle in person, take your time and really study their composition. Regardless of their sires, I think you would agree that the cattle are very consistent in their structure.

Irish Whiskey I realize this bull needs no introduction but I just wanted you to know one thing, at $300 per straw I’m dedicated to providing only the best available genetics to my valued customers!

bc Classic It took some serious arm twisting for TJ to convince me to use the Classic bull. I told him that I was only using one Angus bull on all 300 virgin heifers. The more I studied the bull and his pedigree the more intrigued I became. We are expecting great things from mating these composite heifers to BC Classic.

Monopoly I realize a lot of people were on the fence regarding the Monopoly calves two years ago, I don’t think that is the case any longer.

Monopoly sired calves have literally dominated sales across the country and show no sign of letting up. With tight supplies of old Heat Wave and original Monopoly semen, I’ve once again demonstrated my commitment to offering only the finest genetics available.

PA GE 3 8

You know what the only thing better than Walks Alone is? A Walks Alone son out of PANDA! This bull calf is the result of the IVF process performed at Trans Ova last year while PANDA was pregnant. This bull is exactly what I had hoped for. He is absolutely the stoutest, freakiest looking calf that has walked the pens here at HCC. There will not be a calf at Denver that can equal all the positive characteristics this young sire possesses! Selling FULL POSSESSION. Retaining 1/2 semen interest. I will be more than happy to absorb 50% of all costs if a trip to Denver is necessary!

The ultimate baldy option to cross with some of those bigger, plainer Angus cows. Hog Boy was PANDA’s first natural calf and talk about a mother. With the maternal traits of New Look 101 and PANDA perfectly blended together the anticipation to see their offspring is a bit overwhelming. Remember all the bred heifers were cleaned up with full sibs to Hog Boy!!

F e at u r e Lot Friction Double Vision x Full Throttle October 2007

OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME After much deliberation, my partner has decided to offer his half interest in PANDA. This cow is believed by many, including myself, to quite possibly be the best cow in the industry. When I originally offered half interest in 2008, I wrote in her foot notes that she would revolutionize the industry — and she has! After only one year of production she generated 24 live calves. I only sold 14 head and they generated $133,000. That crop included DCC New Look 101, Meyer 734 and Heat Wave calves. The most noted calf was her son, Long Time Coming, which generated $19,000 for half interest in our 2010 sale and two Heat Wave sons of which one fetched $26,000 for Copus & Rodgers. The other Heat Wave steer, purchased by Copus, just recently won class seven for Tamara Adcock at the 2011 American Royal! Folks, all BS aside, and opportunity like this will NEVER surface again. PANDA is only 4 years old and just approaching the prime of her life. The new owner will be 50/50 partners on all 16 2012 ET pregnancies: 8 by Monopoly, 4 by Ali & 4 by Lut and everything else going forward. We just recovered 6 by Milkman for November transfer! You are not buying the recips. They remain possession of HCC. Call Mike for more details 309-368-2615. NO POSSESSION OF PANDA.

Sorry, but every time I look at this picture I’m almost speechless! Guys this is what bred cattle need to look like. To be so massive in her design but so fresh and feminine in her appearance is almost to much to fathom. These 15 SOS daughters bred to Monopoly will put ANYONE on the map as a must stop next spring!

Folks, I would like you to focus your attention on a new division that we have never offered before. This year we will be offering the top 35 commercial Angus bred heifers out of our inventory of nearly 200 head. These heifers represent the exact genetic pool that has been the source of our foundation Angus cows. Mike Corzatt, of Stronghurst, IL, introduced me to these genetics 6 years ago. Mike and I have been mating these exact females, which originated in Gordon, NE at the Krebs Angus Ranch, to the likes of Aftershock, Chopper, 3C Macho, DJ Saluation, SOS, Climax and Meyer 734.

For example, all 15 SOS daughters we are selling came from the Corzatt herd, as well as the vast majority of the 4 year old cows we are selling bred to Irish Whiskey. Now that I’ve let the cat out of the bag, it is your decision if you want to raise cattle like Lot 54, 55, 57, 63, 64 and 65. It all starts with foundation cows like these. Here lies an opportunity for you folks to really acquire genetics that I KNOW will be the building blocks for a very profitable run in the in the cattle business. GOOD LUCK!

H u st on C at t l e C om pan y As you may have noticed, I neglected to write my little spiel until the end of the catalog. There is a reason for that.

As the owner/breeder of these cattle I take great pride in the overall appearance of how well they look and how well my wife, Tina, did portraying them is this marvelous catalog. These cattle don’t look this good by accident, my right hand man, Taylor Schwartz along with his posse from WIU are as good as it gets. Thank you guys! New this year, the hiring of Kevin Mears of Stock Options Marketing. Kevin spent 3 days in Roseville doing the pictures and what a job well done. Another individual that has almost become a permanent fixture here, Dr. Michael Pugh, of Westwood Genetics. Dr. Pugh has been here 3 years now and does a wonderful job for us. I highly recommend his services to anyone interested in the embryo transplant market. Thank you Westwood.

With all that being said, this whole business boils down to ONE thing! Do the cattle WORK FOR YOU the customer?

You know what, I know I can confidently say my cattle work for the customer. If I had a dollar for every time I heard the line, “Mike do you remember that cow I got from you”? That is the single most rewarding compliment I can get.

This year marks the 4th sale and the success that our customers have already received is nothing short of flattering.

For example, Moose Johnson and his son Drew purchased 7 bred heifers in our 2008 sale. Of the 21 possible calves born to date, they have either keep or sold every heifer and have sold 7 of the 11 steer calves! Drew invested $13,000.00 and has already exceeded $30,000.00 in steer sales alone!

Ask Dave Boyer just how well our cattle have worked for him and Grant Weisinger. Dave has bought nearly 25 bred heifers of ours and has been marketing his calves through the Weisingers & Jones’s private treaty sales. The high seller this year was a Remendy out of one of those cows. The 2009 Grand Champion Market Heifer at the Iowa State Fair was raised by one of these cows. Actually Dave just informed me that the Weisingers just purchased the vast majority of those cows! 10 out of the 30 calves in their 2011 sale were raised by HCC bred cows.

Aaron Drake, of Ohio, has been a great customer since the first sale in 2007. I believe he has bought nearly 7 breds carrying our brand. This year he raised an awesome red baldy Heat Wave steer that Dave Sutherly sold for $9,750.00. To this day, the mother of that steer, a red baldy Aftershock, might still be one of my all-time favorites!

Thank you Aaron.

Folks, in closing, I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone that is a part of this operation. You know who you are and the things you do for Tina and I do not go unnoticed. Hope to see you in Roseville November 20th!

Mike
