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

The cattle and grain markets are going to stay strong forquite a while and it makes as much sense to invest in goodquality livestock as any opportunity out there. A core group ofthese females, in an aggressive program that utilizes embryotransplant may generate hefty profits for their new owner.Visit with Mike or myself and we will be happy to share withyou some of the many success stories customers have hadwith his cattle. Study this sale book and come to Rosevilleprepared to invest in your programs future. You won’t regretit. As always if I can assist in any way, please feel free tocontact me.

Thank You

Bred May 20-28 to BC ClassicExposed to New Look 101 x Panda Sons

Lot 1What a picture to start off the 2011 Heart of the Herd sale catalog. I told Mears to be readythe second she walked in the pen. The great ones always stick it within the first few sec-onds. 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 onewill be heard from again and I’m sure it will be sooner than later.

HUSTON R26Meyer 734

PANDAApril 2010


Lot 2Where do you start! A full sib to the $38,000 Denver hit LONG TIME COMING. Also a fullsib to the Meyer heifer that brought $15,000 for 1/2 interest in last year’s auction. Whenthe smoke all settles I really don’t know which one of Panda’s 24 calves thus far I like thebest! 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!!



HUSTON R18 ET

Heat WaveR199 Aftershock x Angus

April 2010Bred May 20-28 to BC Classic

Exposed to New Look 101 x Panda Sons

Lot 3What can I tell you that you obviously can’t see for yourself? This is really good stuff hereguys. Brandon, Dustin and Skip what do you guys think? I know its been a terrible sum-mer 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!



HUSTON R44Aftershock

B72 Afershock x LuttonMarch 2010


Lot 4This is one of, if not the best Aftershock bred heifer we have ever offered at p ublic auction!She is also the only Afteshock bred heifer in the sale. Everyone has finally seen just howinfluential these dams are.





HUSTON R11Irish Whiskey

7093 BR MidlandMarch 2010


Lot 5R11 marks the first Irish Whiskey we have ever sold at a HCC Sale. I chuckled to myselfwhen 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, theinfluence of Irish Whiskey. If there is a better Whiskey bred selling anywhere this fall/winterI would like to be the first to see her!! Buckle Up!!


R72 3C Macho x AngusMarch 2010


Lot 6I 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 hisbrother bought a handful of cows from us and raised a few of these heifers! Congrats myfriend! If it were not for R11, R13 would blow your mind. This is one hell of a pair of breds!!





HUSTON R14Monopoly

W95 Bates x LuttonApril 2010


Lot 7Folks, I made mention in last years catalog that I was really excited about keeping myMonopolys for females. Once you take the time to study this heifer in person, as well asher pictures, I’m sure you will feel the same as I do. This heifer is good enough to havebeen in anyone’s showstring. This heifer is worth every penny she brings!!

Lot 8Well, 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 doubtI stop anytime soon. There is a reason she made the cut to have her mug in the ads.



HUSTON R4Cheap Trick

Y565 Ali x AngusMarch 2010


HUSTON R16Heat Wave

W20383 Meyer 734 x MaineApril 2010


Lot 9Like I have said many times before, there are not a lot of Heat Waves that look likegood cows. HOWEVER, there are exceptions to every rule! This heifer is absolutelyover the top INCREDIBLE. Like I have told everyone, I don’t have a favorite, but if youdon’t make an attempt to own this one, I don’t want to hear about it for YEARS to come.This might be a once in a lifetime opportunity!



HUSTON R10Monopoly

B61 Flex x AngusMarch 2010


Lot 10For those of you who might not recognize the grand sire Flex, he is a Whiplash son raisedby my good friends, the LeClaires, of Riverton, WY. This heifer has been one of my fa-vorites since weaning last fall. I truely believe Monopoly mated back to these maternalsires will make daughters that will etch their name in the history books. The sky is the limitwith these genetics.




W66 Maine Break x AngusApril 2010


Lot 11How many guys are lucky enough to have heifers calves look like this out of their 9 yr. oldclean up bull. I bought Hanson from Griswold many years ago and now you know why westill use him! These 3 daughters are nothing short of amazing! Paternal sister to Lot 1 & 12.




W11 HF Bando 1961 x AngusMarch 2010


Lot 12The third and final Hanson daughter. I sure wish I hadn’t used so many new bulls – I’m notone to mention names – but I’d rather had more clean up calves!! A lot of these breds areout of our base cows that I’m proud to say are now owned by Tyler & Julie Thernes ofHooper, Nebraska! Thank you Tyler and Good Luck!



HUSTON R30Total Solution

R22 Aftershock x AngusApril 2010


Lot 13Club Calf producers, gather around. With all the hype the last few years about theTotal Solution daughters, I got one for you to evaluate. This bred is even backed byone of my best young Aftershock cows. This heifer has enough look & power to evencarry a TH & PHA clean sire!



HUSTON R7 ET

Heat WaveR199 Aftershock x Angus



Lot 14She is a full sister to the black & white Lot 3 heifer but just a frame size smaller. What shegives up in size she might have surpassed in quality. There aren’t many in the entire salebuilt any better than her! Full sib to Lot 3.



HUSTON R37Alias

Y7132 Commercial AngusApril 2010


Lot 1 5Pound for pound this beauty could be about as good as any bred I sell Nov. 20th! These Alias daughters out of our commercial grade Angus cows work awesome for club calf production! Extremely stout structured and smooth moving! Take an extra longlook here. How ’bout the rib shape this one has?



HUSTON R19 ET

March 2010Bred May 20-28 to BC Classic


Lot 1 6This Charloias composite isa BIG TIMER! Her motherwas our 3rd high seller inthe 2009 sale. The qualitywas 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.

Talk about royally bred. I want to thank Brad Smith and the boys that host the FIRSTCLASS FEMALE SALE. I purchased this breds mother there a couple years ago –solid investment! Thanks Brad!

Lot 17




P616 Aftershock x AngusMarch 2010


This little Whiskey bred is absolutely made to a “T”. Although a notch smaller than her twocontemporaries, she lacks nothing in quality compared to them. Do not be afraid to addthis heifer to any progressive program!

Lot 18



HUSTON R343 C Macho

Lot 20There I went again, stacking the Meyer 734 genetics. Crazy thing is, it works damn nearall the time. This is a really solid bred. Very moderate for a higher percentage Simmental.



HUSTON R15Smooth Sailing

Y4032 x Commercial AngusApril 2010


Lot 21Just a little different pedigree but the exact same results. I’m guessing TH free by looksand if thats the case, stack up the Heat Wave genetics. If not, try a good Meyer son. Long Time Coming ring a bell?



HUSTON R2Strictly Business

P419 x AngusMarch 2010


Lot 22I bought a bunch of Strictly Business semen years ago and never really used the stuff.Silly me, because they are really nice, fault free cattle that have a place in the club calfindustry!



HUSTON R5Monopoly

W70 Full Flush x AngusApril 2010


Lot 23We are selling 8 of these Monopoly daughters in this offering. I honestly don’t know if I havea favorite. R5, along with the other 7, is damn near flawless in her design. These paternalsisters are ideal in terms of size, shape & structure. I would send any of the 8, anywheresight unseen.




B66 Aftershock x Who Made WhoMarch 2010


Lot 24This heifer has striking similarities to the R10 Monopoly bred. I see heifers like this one in3 or 4 years as impact females in the club calf world. When you get the pleasure of seeingthese cattle in person, take your time and really study their composition. Regardless oftheir sires, I think you would agree that the cattle are very consistent in their structure.



HUSTON R3Cheap Trick

W80 Woodhill Supreme x AngusMarch 2010


Lot 25Plain & simple, these breds are the kind that make it profitable for you the customer. Don’t cost a lot but will make A LOT!



HUSTON R9 ET

DCC New Look 101PANDA



Lot 26The fourth and final New Look x PANDA heifer that we will sell. 3A brought $5000, 3B$9750 & 3C’s 1/2 interest brought $5500 in last years sale. I’m not saying this one is bet-ter or worse than those 3 but one thing is for sure, Panda’s offspring are absolutely incred-ible. Here is one of two golden opportunities to still tie into the genetics from one of, if not,the best cow in the business.




G82 3C Macho x AngusMarch 2010


Lot 27If you like them long necked, big ribbed with a shot more bone, then R1 needs to be onyour list. I think everyone agrees these type of mainstream genetics work in the club calf& composite business.

I had to blow the dust off a few of my oldNFL daughters to see if they still worked! Iused to use a lot of NFL years ago, becauseI never could afford the Draft Pick semen.Guess the old rips can still stamp them out!Probably a no brainer guys.

Hate to sound like a broken record, but thissweet little brockle face has the look andpedigree to find her way to the top of anyones 2 year old pasture. This heifer isprobably the most comfortable in terms ofskeletal composition as any of theMonopolys. STUDY THESE BREDS!

Monopoly



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

It took some serious arm twisting for TJ to convince me to use theClassic bull. I told him that I was only using one Angus bull on all300 virgin heifers. The more I studied the bull and his pedigree the more intrigued I became. We are expecting great things frommating these composite heifers to BC Classic.

I realize a lot of people were on the fence regarding the Monopolycalves two years ago, I don’t think that is the case any longer. Monopoly sired calves have literally dominated sales across thecountry and show no sign of letting up. With tight supplies of old Heat Wave and original Monopoly semen, I’ve once again demon-strated my commitment to offering only the finest genetics available.

Lot 52You 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 PANDAwas pregnant. This bull is exactly what I had hoped for. He is absolutely the stoutest, freakiestlooking calf that has walked the pens here at HCC. There will not be a calf at Denver that canequal all the positive characteristics this young sire possesses! Selling FULL POSSESSION.Retaining 1/2 semen interest.

F e at u r e Lot

OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIMEAfter much deliberation, my partner has decided to offer his half interest in PANDA. This cow is believed by many, including myself, to quite possiblybe 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 includedDCC 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 byCopus, 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 preg-nancies: 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 notbuying the recips. They remain possession of HCC. Call Mike for more details 309-368-2615. NO POSSESSION OF PANDA.

Lot 54Sorry, but every time I look at this picture I’m almost speechless! Guys this is what bredcattle need to look like. To be so massive in her design but so fresh and feminine in herappearance is almost to much to fathom. These 15 SOS daughters bred to Monopolywill put ANYONE on the map as a must stop next spring!

I hate to showmy hand, but the reality is, it is my job to tell you the customer how I see things. And I seethis black beauty as a BIG TIMER! Her pattern is perfect.

I’m not going to beat a dead horse here guys but these next few SOSbreds are so damn good you are not going to believe me when I tell you that the picturesjust can’t tell the whole story.

Just a little twist here. A Point Taken out of aSOS x Meyer dam. She is not TH tested so I did not chance it and just bred her to NewLook. Here is one that will slide right intoanybody’s program!

If the first 6 or 7 breds of this division did notmake your heart start racing, then I’m justwasting time & ink. At least grab your neigh-bor and head to Roseville Nov. 20th, we cancall it a post-harvest party if you don’t likethe cattle!

If there were ever a pair ofcattle to keep together, this would be it. It willbe interesting to find out what these 15 cattlewill generate in gross dollars next fall!

Here is the bred that probably has generatedmore positive discussion than most of them.She got very run down as a 2 yr old and I justcould not bring myself to getting rid of her. I will bet ANYONE that she ends up in trans-plant by April 2012! And I will bet ANYONEagain that once you see her in person no onewill take me up on the first bet!

Lot 63When I decided to sell a set of young, maternally bred and highly productive cows Iwanted to make a splash. I figured spending $250/cow on Irish Whiskey semen would bea start. When I got the pictures back from Kevin and saw R10’s picture it would not havemattered what the hell I bred her to. Here is one for the most discriminating cattleman.Cows like R10 will excel no matter the type of operation you are involved with! Don’t forget she was bred to Irish Whiskey!

Lot 64If an Aftershock bred to Whiskey was not good enough, there was only one sire better,Meyer 734! If this cow beds down and spits out a black baldy Irish Whiskey heifer calfnext spring please tell your friends where you bought it at least! These are true foundationtype cows that we are offering Nov. 20th.

Lot 65Here is a sample of the 5 yr. old 3C Macho daughters we are selling Nov. 20th. I believethere are 5 of these paternal sisters that I’m offering up for auction. Just the thought ofhaving Irish Whiskey calves out of cows of this caliber gives me the chills. Call my goodfriend and customer Dana Pruess, 563-320-3331, and ask him what happened when hemated our genetics with Irish Whiskey!

Folks, I would like you to focus your attention on a new division that we have never offered before. This year we will be offer-ing the top 35 commercial Angus bred heifers out of our inventory of nearly 200 head. These heifers represent the exact geneticpool that has been the source of our foundation Angus cows. Mike Corzatt, of Stronghurst, IL, introduced me to these genetics 6years ago. Mike and I have been mating these exact females, which originated in Gordon, NE at the Krebs Angus Ranch, to thelikes 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 oldcows 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 likeLot 54, 55, 57, 63, 64 and 65. It all starts with foundation cows like these. Here lies an opportunity for you folks to really acquiregenetics that I KNOW will be the building blocks for a very profitable run in the in the cattle business. GOOD LUCK!

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 wellmy wife, Tina, did portraying them is this marvelous catalog. These cattle don’t look this good by accident, my righthand 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 ajob well done. Another individual that has almost become a permanent fixture here, Dr. Michael Pugh, of WestwoodGenetics. Dr. Pugh has been here 3 years now and does a wonderful job for us. I highly recommend his services toanyone 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 heardthe 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 possiblecalves 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 bredheifers of ours and has been marketing his calves through the Weisingers & Jones’s private treaty sales. The highseller this year was a Remendy out of one of those cows. The 2009 Grand Champion Market Heifer at the IowaState Fair was raised by one of these cows. Actually Dave just informed me that the Weisingers just purchased thevast 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 bredscarrying 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 areand the things you do for Tina and I do not go unnoticed. Hope to see you in Roseville November 20th!

Mike
