Finish Line *x is the first natural calf out of 264 *x. She might not be the most impressive of her full sisters, but when the shows are over with, it’s the one that makes a cow that’s important. She reminds us a lot of some of our old Irish females, super long fronted, and feminine, beautiful udder. To see her in the pasture nursing a calf that never missed a beat is the true definition of a Shorthorn cow. 264 *x is open and ready to flush immediately after the sale. She has been flushed twice producing eight and nine embryos. Her calf is weaned, the weather is cooler and she is in just the right condition to flush multiple times. TH Free.

Selling half interest, possession to be shared by the Vision Group and the new owner. New owner will receive half of all income associated with the bull and pay half of all expenses of promotion and semen collection. 

Polled.
Sometimes you just know. We need a lot of different types of bulls in our breed to go along with our great females. I think the number one problem in our breed is birth weight. Many may argue this, but how many times have you stood there thinking (you know, that would have been a “great one” if he had lived). There are never any guarantees with breeding cattle, but we’ve never raised a bull calf that we are more confident in than “Finish Line”. His physical make-up, extremely smooth through his shoulder, medium bone, long fronted, tremendous style and balance all point to calving ease. Then you get to his pedigree, two of the most dominant females in our breed, Mirage and Mona Lisa mated with two of the most powerful bulls in our breed, Trump X and Legend, have produced a bull calf that we think can impact the breed for years. BW: 75 lbs. TH Free.

Pretty Woman *x is open and ready to flush immediately after the sale. She has not been flushed since calving and will be ready to flush multiple times. She has produced as many as 20 transferable embryos in a flush. From day one Pretty Woman *x was destined for stardom. She has the look, the  parentage and the fertility to produce another chapter in the Shorthorn history books. Beautiful udder, long, feminine front end, bone, thickness, she has it all. Several top breeders have taken advantage of her genetics and haven’t been disappointed. The Skys The Limit! TH  Free.

AF SL KF Pretty Woman 547 *x4101182. Heifer, polled, roan, calved 5/3/05, LE 547. Sired by K-Kim Payton *x.

She can walk and talk, you be the judge but we are very high on this one.


Lot 2A

2b

AF SL KF Pretty Woman 557 *x4101202. Heifer,
polled, red, calved 7/2/05, LE 557. Sired by AF Warrior 195
*x. This heifer is young and was at a cooperator herd so we couldn’t
get a picture. The National Champion Warrior is popping up
more and more in good cattle pedigrees these days. Much like we
predicted about Pretender, Warrior needs to be used again. This
one will show! And when you’re done, who knows, you might
have yourself another “3127”.

Polled. 155 *x is open and ready to flush immediately after the sale. She has been flushed once since calving and produced 12 embryos. Powerful female, powerful parentage. No one can dispute the impact Rose has made in our breed. There are very few of the good females in our breed that would not go back to Dividend somewhere in their pedigree.

Smokey *x is open and ready to flush immediately after the sale. She has been flushed twice since calving producing 14 and 18 embryos. This old “crossbred” cow would be the envy of most purebred cattlemen. The appendix program is here to stay, it’s Hot! Their marketable and if you don’t try to take advantage of it, you’re crazy! When we showed Smokey she was rarely beat-en. We couldn’t count the number of times someone would come up to ask what she was. It was fun to be able to tell them she was half Shorthorn. If she would have been red no one would have ever asked! We believe in the program and we really believe in this cow. The Skys The Limit!
Lot 4A - One package of three embryos sired by Draft Pick (Maine).
Lot 4B - One package of three embryos sired by Han Du Big & Rich (Full brother to Solution and Bloodstone), Guarantee of one pregnancy with each package.
4C - Guaranteed heifer pregnancy sired by Draft Pick; due to calve 3/15/06.
There are very few good Maines that don’t have Draft Pick somewhere in their pedigree.

Horned.
This is the foundation of one of the greatest female lines in our breed. If you don’t care about pedigrees or actually breeding good cattle this lot won’t interest you. If you believe in a foundation to make a good cow herd. This is one to consider. Think of all the popular bulls you can use on her.
