Look for more info in the future on this endeavor! We look forward to SD being represented well at Jr Nationals this summer in St. Paul, MN. If anyone would like to attend we are planning to organize travel as best we can. Get ahold of me (President and Jr Advisor) Clay Duxbury or Bridget Twedt, who has put a lot of work and time into coordinating for this event.

Jock and I would like to say thank you toall our customers!! Hearing of your successwith our genetics is what keeps us raisingregistered cattle. We had a decent year moistureand weather wise. This year’s offering includesmany embryo transfer calves that will allow youto purchase many full brothers. There are severalsons out of our Turning Point bull (who isdeceased) that just keeps impressing us with hiscalves’ ability to perform, maintain eye appealand their overall do-ability. One of his son WCSEL DORADO sold to Accelerated Genetics andHart Simmentals and we retained his full brotherWCS McClintock two years ago, their sons anddaughters look impressive. We strive to raisebulls with outcross genetics to our breed thatwill excel in all areas of the beef industry. Ibelieve this will become more important withlower calf prices that we have all seen this year.Bulls that sire more pounds will play a majorrole in your bottom dollar. We can assist youwith the marketing of your calves as well.

The Simmental and SimAngusTM cattleperform well on the rail, in the feed yard, and as momma cows for us and our customers.MARC research shows that hybrid vigor allowsthe cows to maintain their condition, rebreedquicker and produce more pounds of calf percow exposed than straight bred cows. Theresearch shows they will generate over $100profit, they have a 25% increased lifetimeproductivity, and stay in production 38% longer.

We are very proud of the quality, not quantityof bulls we offer. We cull 2/3 of the calf crop toleave only the best. The mothers to these bullsare not pampered or given any special treatmentover the commercial cows. We believe they need

to perform under the same environment andperform at a higher standard. We select for lowto moderate BWs with exceptional growth,maternal and carcass traits.

The bulls are developed so they will not melt,will continue to grow, and stay sound for youduring the breeding season. They will be sementested, and we will work with you on wintering.We highly recommend purchasing insurance onyour investment, and we can assist you infinding a good company to work with.

We offer a sight-unseen guarantee. The bullsthis year are very impressive in their geneticmakeup and phenotype. There is a wide selec-tion from heifer bulls to performance bulls. WCS is very proud of this group of bulls. It paysto own good bulls that will add pounds to yourcalf crop and leave tremendous females.

Stop by and take a look or give us a call to visit about the bulls or anything else. Ourwebsite is located on breedingcattlepage.com.Videos will be available on most of the bulls.Also, see us on facebook in the near future.

Ultrasound data will be available on the bullsas well!!!
