36th Annual Blue River Gang Sale - Sunday, February 4th

Welcome All Fellow Cattlemen!

Welcome to our 36th Annual Simmental, Sim-Angus & Angus Production Sale!

It’s amazing how quick a calendar year can fly by. It seems like yesterday that we sat down to write this letter. We were very pleased with the feedback from last year’s sale. It varied from calves setting down the scales at weaning time, new offspring that all the visitors loved, and success in the show-ring. Each year we strive to make our quality of cattle increase, and take pride in offering cattle that can work in several different programs. Look through the pictures, come out and see them in person, if you have been to the sale before it won’t take you long to discover that this is our best set yet! We welcome both previous and new customers to call with any questions or to come out and see the cattle in person. Every year on sale day, it’s always great to see the repeat customers that have been here from start and those that have been coming for several years. It is because of our loyal customer base that we can do what we love and offer these cattle, so thank you. Thank you for your interest in our sale, we look forward to seeing you, both customers new and old on sale day! Every year, our open heifers sold on the sale are eligible for a futurity show held mid-summer at the Ruth Farm following the sale. With $1500 of total winnings over 9 places, this is a very worthwhile event. The winnings can then be redeemed at the following year’s sale as credit. The futurity is not limited to just 4-H and FFA members. It is open to anybody purchasing heifers at our sale. We hope everyone can make plans to attend the 36th annual Blue River Gang Sale. If you have any questions with the sale offering, please feel free to contact any of the breeders or the sale management. Hope to see you on sale day!

Last year this girl’s full sister demanded $7,500 and was our sales futurity winner for the Staab Family. I was trying to figure out how we would make one better than her sister then came this girl, and she’s a baldy! Instead of writing a novel on her, I’ll let her picture do the talking. Direct Lock N Load daughters are getting pretty hard to come by, especially ones of this quality! Extremely gentle and ready for the showring.

We truly feel that this heifer is elite! This one has been an absolute standout since birth. One that profiles this good, and gets around this easy should be one that catches the eye of judges all around. After she gets done with her show career, let her become one of your top producing cows. As you look through the catalog, you will find maternal siblings to her that are all top end cattle. There is a lot to get excited about in this one! Has a great disposition and ready for the showring. Maternal siblings in Lots 1, 3, 27 and 63.

You really have to appreciate the way that this heifer profiles. There is a lot of maternal power bred into this heifer. Look into her pedigree, she is an outcross to a majority of the breed. This is the kind that will make a great cow when in production. Great disposition, halter broke.

Here is my favorite purebred heifer in the offering. This is one of the best Turning Point females I have been around. She goes back to our 521 cow who raises a top selling bull for us every year. It is hard to find heifers this powerful that remain so balanced that still carry that elegant look. Have fun showing her then let her work right into being you top producing cow. Halter broke.

This heifer really has come on big time here lately. I’d even go as far to say that she is one of the best show prospects on the sale. If you study her, she is very complete, hard to poke a hole in. She comes from one of our best cow families. This one is very easy to work with and would be great for showmen of all ages.

We might be crazy for selling this one for I truly believe she will be a tremendous cow.

This blazed faced female is bred a lot like Lot 67. This is the type of heifer that will go to work right out the gate. Vet called bred to the Pasture Sire for a late February Calf.

This one has power in the blood and is a flat out good! For a purebred, she has a very good front third, yet remains very powerful all the way through. This is the type that raises high end show animals. Vet called her likely bred to the Angus Calving ease bull Net Present Value for a half blood calf. The work should all be done by sale time!

This may be one of the best bred heifers we have ever offered. Last year, her full sister demanded $7,500. She has two full sibs on this year’s sale as Lots 1 and 27, and a maternal sister in Lot 2. You can see by this female and her siblings that this is a bullet proof mating. The more you study this one, the more you will fall in love. She is an excellent mother with a great udder. To top it off, she has a purebred Bettis heifer calf at her side!

We felt that one area we needed to add higher quality to in our sale offering was our bred heifer division. Typically, we would keep heifers of this caliber back for our own use but we realize we need to offer our best. This white headed one is one of my top picks in this division; she has the potential to make someone a lot of money. Vet called her likely AI bred to the great calving ease bull, Blaze Of Glory for a purebred calf in early February.

Explanation of How to Utilize API and TI IndexesFirst, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping replacements use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference between bulls. (As described to the left, index units are in dollars per cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a $50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed. For more information, visit www.simmental.org.
