Welcome to Our OnlinePRODUCTION SALE!

SALE INFORMATION This will be a limited auction private treaty sale. Bidders can contact Hook Farms via email (preferred) or by phone to place their bids. Bidding will be done in $100 increments. Starting bids will be listed by the bulls. If only one person bids on a given bull, they will purchase the animal for the base price. Bidding will conclude at 4:00 pm on February 7, 2014. Payment is to be made at the conclusion of the sale. Hook Farms guarantees the integrity of the bidding process. Our goal is to represent our cattle honestly and to arrive at fair market value for our genetics. No “running” of a bidder will take place. Hook Farms’ integrity is worth more to our family than any dishonest monetary gain. Sight unseen purchases are guaranteed to the buyers satisfaction.

• All Cattle sell under Terms and Conditions of the American Simmental Association.• Bulls will be fertility tested and guaranteed yearling breeders.

• FREE DELIVERY of bulls in Minnesota and surrounding states with FREE FEEDING until April 1st.

• All bulls have been tested BVD-PI negative and the Hook Farms herd is annually monitored for Johnes and Leukosis by the Minnesota Board of Animal Health.

• We will provide delivery of the bulls or coordinate trucking to keep the expense reasonable.• Hook Farms will retain 50% semen interest in all the bulls selling.

• All bulls have been 50K tested!

Hook Farms strives to provide the most current and accurate data to assist in your bull buying decision. While actual data and ratios are important, the EPDs provide the most accurate prediction of the animal’s genetic merit for a given trait. Instead of focusing on the particular value for a trait, we strongly recommend comparing the animals percentile rank relative to the rest of the Simmental population. We believe this will assist you in selecting bulls to move your herd in the genetic direction you are striving to achieve. The API and TI Indexes give you a good barometer of how the bulls will perform on a dollar basis relative to keeping replacement and/or producing terminal offspring. All bulls have been 50K tested to give seedstock producers the most accurate genetic profile available in the beef industry.

Bidding will conclude at 4:00 pm CST on February 7, 2014• Bidding on Embryos will be in $50 increments •
