Welcome Fellow Producers!

Linda and I would like to welcome you all to our 14th Annual Montana Angus Female Bonanza

We are very excited about this year’s offering. In the sale there are 2684 total bred heifers of which 1880 head are AI bred to Connealy Countdown, and 804 head are pasture bred to LBW Vermilion Ranch bulls, a high percentage of which are Countdown sons. Countdown is, no question, as good of a heifer bull as we have ever used at Vermilion. His calves come early in gestation, they are very consistant and maybe most important, they continue to grow. You will like them at weaning. The bred heifers in this sale are as high a quality as we have ever offered with a high percentage sired by top Vermilion bulls. They were the front end out of the 14,000 head we started with.

A real feature in the offering are the 1936 two to four year old cows of which 657 are 2 coming 3’s and 1279 3 and 4 year olds that are all bred to high performing Vermilion Angus bulls. These cows weaned a fancy set of calves and bred back with a 95% preg. rate. Most of them were bred to Connealy Spur, SAV Privilege and Countdown sons. They are the real Montana Angus Female Bonanza kind!

Our entire family has been very blessed to have the opportunity to grow up not only in the purebred industry, but we have been very involved in the feeding and merchandising of feeder cattle and replacement type cattle.

Our philosophy and our PROGRAM from the very beginning fourteen years ago has been to breed high quality Angus females to top quality Angus bulls that are bred alike, that have some look, performance and maternal momma cows behind them. Over the years we have come to believe if we were going to be successful not only in breeding cattle but also merchandising and feeding cattle, our cattle have to reflect this philosophy. We’re proud that this offering of females represents our program in every way.

All of the females have been ultrasound preg tested by Dr. Ralph Miller, the best in the business. This will be the largest volume of high quality Angus females in America to sell that have been sexed and sorted into short day calving groups. There are two huge advantages to buying sexed females in tight calving groups: Number 1, you have a very uniform calf crop and Number 2, and most importantly, your breed-up on these females the following year should be substantially higher than a set of females that calve for 60 days.

There are so many people that Linda and I would like to thank that makes this sale and program happen. We sure want to thank all our kids and their spouses, our nephews, nieces, brother and sisters, the entire Kading family and Bob and Susie Young for their support, sweat and efforts they have given us. Also, we couldn’t operate without Merrill and Kathleen Ostrum and their crew. Then there is Ralph and Candace Miller and J.D. Vukonich at the White Sulphur Unit along with Juanita, Turk and Jenny Stovall and their entire crew and finally, Hugh and Jerrid Broadus and their family on the Colstrip units. All these folks put their heart and soul into making the Montana Angus Female Bonanza sale successful.

As always, we stand behind these females 100%. If you have problems, let me know and we’ll make it right.

Thanks so much for your interest. We are truly proud of this set of females.

Sincerely,

Joe & Linda & Family

• AI Bred to 1880 Head• A high percentage of the bulls used to pasture breed heifers are half

brother sons of Countdown

COUNTDOWN is proving himself as one of the elite calving ease bulls of the Angus breed. His calves come light, early, and have a whole lot of “get up and go” at birth. They are very uniform in their kind and makeup and best of all, they have a lot of grow and performance in them. No question, COUNTDOWN is the best calving ease bull we have ever used at the Vermilion Ranch.
