Upon the conclusion of the auction, a separate sales agreement, including any additional terms, will be sent to the buyer for signature.

Each lot is featured in a video, available for viewing on dvauction.com, providing a comprehensive visual of what's on offer. The video also includes a commentary on each heifer to offer additional insights into their characteristics and potential.

PAYMENT AND TRANSFER

The accepted forms of payment include cash, check, or bank wire. Payment is required upon receipt and must be settled before any animals are transferred from V8 Ranch. Upon receipt of full payment, registration papers will be transferred to the buyer. Failure to complete payment within 14 days of purchase can result in forfeiture of the animal, which may then be sold to another buyer upon written or electronic notice.

FEEDING TERMS

The heifers are currently housed in our show barn, and fitting charges of $25/day begin immediately. If the new owner chooses to transfer their heifer into our development program, they will receive complimentary feed until December 13, 2024. From December 13, 2024, onward, a charge of $10/head/day will apply.

Our charges are necessary to cover the cost of providing toptier care and nutrition for your cattle. Any veterinary expenses incurred will be the owner's responsibility. All accounts will be billed monthly, and feed charges must be settled in full when the cattle are picked up.

HEIFER VIEWING

Currently, the cattle are being halter-broken at our show barn and are available for in-person inspection by appointment. This opportunity allows buyers to evaluate the animals directly and understand their temperament and potential.

HEALTH

The cattle are eligible for an approved state health certificate for interstate shipment within the USA. Buyers are responsible for familiarizing themselves with the health requirements for their respective states. The animals have been meticulously cared for and have been vaccinated under the guidance of our veterinarian.

They are presumed healthy at the time of sale. However, no guarantees are provided for health requirements for exports outside the USA.

The buyer assumes immediate ownership and all associated risks, including injury, disease, or death, at the conclusion of the online auction. Insurance coverage is mandatory for any animal in our care. This coverage is available through Shelia Jensen of Jensen Livestock Agency, who can be reached at 785-374-4372.

Females sold in the sale come with a veterinary certification of health and soundness, which is available upon request. They are guaranteed to be natural breeders for one natural calf, though this is not an all-encompassing insurance policy. Any circumstances of injury, death, poor management, or nutritional issues are not covered. The breeding guarantee is void if the heifer is not in a suitable body condition score to breed, if she is flushed or IVF'd before having a natural calf, or if she is exhibited at livestock shows. Buyers must inform us of any breeding issues by January 1, 2027. In case of any such issues, the buyer is obligated to return the animal to V8. We will then have a 6-month period to validate the breeding capability of the animal. In case the female is found to be a non-breeder, V8 will either select a suitable replacement or offer a sale credit for future purchases at V8. Cash refunds are not provided.

EMBRYO FLUSH

V8 Ranch retains the right, though may not exercise this right, to perform one embryo flush at the buyer's convenience, yielding a minimum of six grade one transferrable embryos. All costs associated with the embryo flush will be covered by V8 Ranch.

10 REMARKABLE SALES

A TRADITION OF THE BEST MADE FOR MAGIC X

A tenth edition of Made for Magic merits a few exciting firsts, making this sale truly unforgettable. We moved this sale to December to accommodate a younger calf crop and embrace a whirlwind fall filled with once-in-a-lifetime moments.

This fall became even more special as we celebrated our second Made for Magic female to achieve National Champion status. Miss V8 532/9, sold in Made for Magic V to GKB Cattle, earned this prestigious title.

Few sales in this breed—if any—can boast multiple National Champions, and we take immense pride in this legacy.

Made for Magic has always been about selling our best. When we started these sales, it was a bold and risky move to change the status quo and offer our absolute top genetics. Now, 10 sales and 2 National Champions later, what a tremendous payoff there has been—not just for us, but for our customers who have shared in this success.

This year’s offering reflects the heart of V8: the strength of our cow families, the power of our sires, and our commitment to producing the best in Brahman genetics.

For the first time, we’re offering halfinterest in a heifer who’s already been in the purple. As the only January heifer we’ll be showing this year, she offers an exceptional chance to join us in her continued success.

This sale also showcases the dominance of our beloved Sloan, with four of the five heifers sired by him. These heifers highlight the power of the V8 Superblend, blending our cow families to deliver unparalleled quality and predictability. Together, this offering is a testament to the strength of these families and their ability to produce the next generation of Brahman excellence.

In honor of this milestone sale, we’re also offering choice of the top four January bull calves. These bulls represent the future of our breeding program, with AI sire potential and the quality to one day shine at our Stall Party. This lot is offered as a half-interest partnership, allowing the high bidder to select their favorite and join us in their success.

At V8 Ranch, we’ve always strived to innovate and adapt while staying true to the principles that have guided us through generations.

Thank you for your continued trust and friendship, and for being part of our story.

For the first time in Made for Magic history, we’re offering a heifer already proven in the show ring. Miss V8 961/9 is sired by +Mr. V8 195/8 “Red Man” and out of JDH Lady Manso 187, showcasing the unmatched power of the JDH x V8 cross. This blend was dominant at the 2024 National Show, producing both the National Champion and Reserve National Champion grey females. Her dam, a former ET donor at JDH, joined Knox’s herd at 13 years old, described by Jim as “a young 13!” Since +JDH MR. ELMO MANSO +MR. V8 458/7 NATIONAL CHAMPION then, she has been a consistent producer, with this flush to Red Man being MISS V8 100/7 (P) her best yet, yielding our two top January heifers. Sadly, her full sister NATIONAL CHAMPION died shortly after moving to the show barn, making Miss V8 961/9 an even +MR. V8 195/8 “RED MAN” +MR.

She’s long-bodied, heavy-boned, and moves with ease. Not only do we like her as a show heifer, we love her as a brood cow prospect.

Because of our later sale date, she got her first shot in the ring and made it count—winning her class and Reserve Calf Champion at the National Show. She’s the only January heifer we’ll be showing.

Though she would have been Knox’s top bred-and-owned show heifer, we’re staying true to Made for Magic tradition by offering her here.

She’ll sell as a half-interest heifer, allowing Knox to build his herd while we stay invested in her bright future. We were proud to stand behind her at the backdrop with her banner and trophy at the National Show, and next time, we’d love for you to be there with us—standing together as our new partner. Offering one-half interest.

When we’re picking Made for Magic heifers, phenotype comes first—the best-looking cattle earn their spot. It’s exciting when we see their pedigree and they’re a full sibling to a current headliner. Miss V8 971/9 is a full sister to Miss V8 761/9, a National Show and World Brahman Congress division winner and our top show heifer heading into the spring season. Sired by +Mr. V8 146/8 “Sloan,” this March heifer +JDH MR. ELMO MANSO combines some of the most influential bloodlines in our herd. Her dam +MR. V8 458/7 NATIONAL CHAMPION Miss V8 793/8 is a full sister to +Mr. V8 933/7 “Yeti,” and as V8 collectors MISS V8 100/7 (P) know, we make a habit of holding onto the full sisters of our herd bulls— NATIONAL CHAMPION +MR. V8 146/8 "SLOAN" they consistently prove themselves as impressive donor cows. Miss V8 +JDH SIR AVERY MANSO 3X INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION 793/8 is no exception. +MISS V8 805/6 +MISS V8 827/4 +Mr. V8 146/8 “Sloan” is the undisputed king of V8 —our first choice sire whenever pedigree allows. His dominance is evident in this sale lineup, with four of the five heifers being Sloan daughters. After a couple of years exploring other sires, we went all in on Sloan when we were making these mating decisions. We just keep coming back to the consistency and quality he delivers. Miss V8 971/9 is a prime example of why the world loves Sloan: she carries his signature traits: good feet and legs, balance, easy fleshing and heavy muscle, and a striking look with eye appeal.

With 7 EPD traits ranking in the top 15% of the breed, including a light birthweight of 72 pounds, she has both the numbers and the pedigree to back up her quality. Quite an investment piece, here.

When you see +Miss V8 805/6 two times in a pedigree, you know you’re dealing with something special. Miss V8 974/9 is the result of breeding +Mr. V8 146/8 “Sloan” to his half-sister, Miss V8 317/8, both of whom share +Miss V8 805/6 as their dam. This is a rare double-bred combination of one of our most influential cows in history, a family that we rarely offer outside the ranch. +JDH MR. ELMO MANSO Sloan has a tribe of half-sisters, and Miss V8 317/8 is one of the standout +MR.

Her sire, the Reserve National Champion Mr. V8 259/7, +MISS V8 805/6 +MISS V8 827/4 adds a little different layer to her pedigree.

Miss V8 974/9 checks all the boxes when it comes to phenotype—balance, structure, style, and eye appeal. She carries the quality that makes the +Miss V8 805/6 cow family the most numerous bloodline at our ranch, with more donor females and herd sires to her credit than any other. With a very light birthweight of 61 pounds and 8 traits ranking in the top 15% or better in her EPDs, she brings both the numbers and the look.

If she stayed here at V8, we’d be thrilled to explore all those possibilities. Just like most from this cow family, it took some arm twisting to include her in the sale. We can already imagine how proud her new owner will be to have a female with an impressive pedigree and an equally remarkable phenotype—a future donor and a front pasture standout. I like her because she’s just what her pedigree says she should have been. If you had a 100 of these type cows you could breed her anyway you want and be successful.

Going one generation back, her maternal grandsire, +Mr. V8 191/7, brings in the +Claydesta 807-U5 cow family.

The three-time Houston Champion, Sloan continues to dominate as V8’s top sire, with progeny known for their muscle, balance, and striking look.

His impact on the breed is remarkable considering how selectively his genetics have been used. Unlike other sires with widespread use, Sloan’s premium price has limited his use to a small, elite group of breeders— primarily here at V8. Yet, within this narrow pool, his influence has been extraordinary, with progeny consistently rising to the top.

Hudgins, Inc. being sired by the International Champion Bull JDH Denton De Manso 592/7, a Lawford son.

Mr. V8 522/9 is already making his mark in the show ring, earning Calf Champion Bull honors at the 2024 National Brahman Show.

This bull is a prime example of why this mating works time and time again. His dam, JDH Lady Ashtyn Manso 210/2, is the best JDH female we own. When you visit, make sure to see her for yourself— impressive is an understatement. +JDH MR. ELMO MANSO Mr. V8 522/9 is part of an elite group of full siblings. His full sister, Miss +MR. V8 458/7 NATIONAL CHAMPION V8 279/9, was the 2023 ABBA Show Female of the Year and is our best MISS V8 100/7 (P) Sloan daughter. Her accolades and show wins are too numerous to list NATIONAL CHAMPION +MR. V8 146/8 "SLOAN" +JDH SIR AVERY MANSO here, but her impact speaks volumes. Another full brother, Mr. V8 196/9, 3X INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION was a Division Champion at the 2024 International Show. Additionally, +MISS V8 805/6 +MISS V8 827/4 his full sister, Miss V8 273/9, was a past Made for Magic female.

Phenotypically, Mr. V8 522/9 brings it all to the table: easy fleshing, plenty of bone, muscle, and undeniable breed character. He closely resembles his sire, the three-time International Champion +Mr. V8 146/8 “Sloan,” with that same eye appeal, style, and gentle disposition that runs consistently through his progeny. His natural thickness and powerful hip design make him an outstanding herd sire prospect.

Mr. V8 524/9 combines two heavy hitters: Mr. V8 891/8 “Pathfinder” and Miss V8 824/8, creating a pedigree that is both unique and highly marketable. Sired by Pathfinder, the 2023 ABBA Show Bull of the Year, this bull exemplifies the kind of potential and consistency his sire has delivered in a short yet impactful time. Tragically lost too soon, Pathfinder left behind a limited semen inventory, but his mark on our +MR. V8 458/7 +MR. V8 146/8 "SLOAN" herd is undeniable. In his first year and a half of showing, many breeders 3X INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION +MISS V8 805/6 inquired about buying an interest in Pathfinder, but it was ultimately GKB Cattle who joined us on his journey—and what a journey it was.

MR. V8 891/8 "PATHFINDER" +JDH SIR AVERY MANSO BULL OF THE YEAR Despite very restricted use, Pathfinder’s progeny prove why we consider +MISS V8 879/6 him one of the most exciting sires ever produced at V8. His limited use JDH LADY LA BELLE MANSO is reserved only for the most elite donors. International champions like +JDH MR. ELMO MANSO Miss V8 824/8, the dam of Mr. V8 524/9, make the cut. +MR. V8 458/7 NATIONAL CHAMPION Miss V8 824/8 brings her own extraordinary pedigree and accolades to the MISS V8 100/7 (P) table. The 2020 International Champion Female (and 2019 Reserve), her NATIONAL CHAMPION MISS V8 824/8 +MR. V8 380/6 pedigree features the iconic Noble x 380 cross and +Miss V8 21/8 “Boom INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION #1 REGISTER OF RENOWN Shaka Laka,” a National and two-time International Champion. Her early +MISS V8 21/8 +MISS V8 382/7 contributions as a donor confirm her status as one of our premier young 2X INT’L & NATIONAL CHAMPION INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION cows, making her the perfect match for Pathfinder.

Phenotypically, Mr. V8 524/9 checks all the boxes. He has a striking dark pigmented color with a hint of red tinge. The largest framed of the four bulls in the lot, he offers eye appeal, style, and a profile that catches your attention. The possibilities with this bull will make you stop and think.

One-half interest sells as a choice lot. Winning bidder will select their choice from Lots 6A through 6D.
