Lot #1 - Trust In Me X Choppin Wood (not registered)

sire: 

DOB:

Dam:

Maddie Neuschwander has done it again! She is bringing us another elite female. Out of this year’s offerings, she has been the heifer that definitely turns heads in the sale pen. One look from the side and it’s hard to miss her profile that screams CHAMPION. Lot 1 is a true power female - deep sided, round ribbed, and also super stout. What’s truly impressive is she comes with the added extension through her front end that we want every show heifer to have. Get her on the move and this one’s hip and hind leg will only solidify her spot in your top. This combination along with all her hair makes her destined to hang banners. After her show career is over you need to put this one in the donor pen! This heifer will need a more experienced showman.

Lot #2 - Bindi Bird GC (Half Blood Simmental #4377906) 

sire: 

DOB:

Dam:

This heifer, from Grace Cattle, is out of the same cow that produced last year’s Lot 1 female, purchased by the Silacci family. Talk about an ultra-broody and deep bodied female. This one is a soft middled, extra stout heifer that is so robust in her center body, while still throwing her head up on the plant. A truly valuable piece for any herd. I’d be excited to see this gal find success in the showring and in the cow herd where she’s sure to raise you some cool show steers.

Lot #3 - BDR X Black Granite (not registered)  

sire: 

DOB:

Dam:

Take a look here! This female covers all the basics. Body, build, balance. She has all that outward curvature to her center, and still is so correct in her angles; it only makes sense she stamps that clean silhouette from the side. If you don’t get on this one, you could be standing behind her in the showring. This one is a mainstay for any program and goes back to an old school bull that completely changed the show steer industry. And when considering her as replacement female, this heifer goes back to a cow the Colsons purchased from Arcuri Ranches – so she has cow power in her blood. This is one the Colsons will likely regret letting go.

Lot #4 - TS Raining Rolex Money (ACA #551990)

sire: 

DOB:

Dam:

Of the commercial heifers, this one has the storied pedigree. Lot 4’s grandmother is the great Rio, a female that completely changed the program for Colson Cattle. This heifer is out of the cow we call Rain, who was Rio’s first heifer and offered in the ’21 LOTF sale. Rain was purchased by the Murray family and hung numerous banners during the ’21 & ’22 show seasons. Like her mother, this heifer has an attractive front end, and her killer hind leg will definitely pull you in. I’ll be honest with you; I don’t think it’s hard to look past her tail head when she comes with that kind of sweeping shape and curvature to her rib, all while balancing up her tremendous muscle and power. We can’t wait to see this ultra functional female standing in front of the backdrops just as her mother did.

The breeding value in this one is unmatched! Don’t let her leave you standing!

DOB:

Dam:

Here’s a female that is sure to draw lots of attention! A favorite for sure, this is a rare opportunity to own a heifer out of the 2016 Oregon State Fair ROV Jr. Heifer Calf Champion and Reserve Grand Champion Female.

And if you’ve been following the Angus Breed, you know the success these Ever Entense females have had, and you can add Silveiras Style in the pedigree on the dam’s side. Numerous banners have been hung at the Arcuri Ranch and Colson Cattle because of this cow family. If you are looking for a replacement production female to elevate your herd or a show heifer that will be a showstopper, you can't go wrong with this one.

sire: 

DOB:

Dam Sire:

Pay attention to this steer! Here is one that will be very competitive on the jackpot scene, while also appealing to many county fair judges. This steer is super sound, has great angles, tons of power, and a very bold and easy feeding rib cage. And with the temperatures dropping, his hair will only DOUBLE! And if this isn’t enough, this calf is an HBL. Maddie Neuschwander’s program just won the 2024 Linn County Fair Supreme Champion Market Steer with an HBL son. Bid with confidence or you will regret not standing at the backdrop with him!

Lot #9 - Red Angus Bull X I-80 

sire: 

DOB:

Dam Sire:

This is the youngest steer in the sale. He is green, but when you study him you will notice he has all the right pieces to compete. In fact, everyone who has looked at him in the pen recognizes he will be the sleeper of the sale because of his age. A little more time and feed, and this guy will be the real deal. We think his overall quality can take care of the rest based on the characteristics he represents. I mean, this fella packs a ton of muscle onto this skeleton and has one of the more expressive tops already. Don't sleep on him knowing he will get better every single day.

sire: 

DOB:

Dam Sire:

If you want to be ultra-competitive on the jackpot scene or try to win a haired or slick show, this guy is for you. This beastly looking steer offers as much muscle and stoutness of feature as any. And with his natural head carriage and square build, he is one that leans into the elite category. It only makes sense, his mother, a full blood Simmental, won several titles before Colsons purchased the dam from the Gohrs Crown Jewel event in 2019. As each day passes, this stud gets better and better and the folks who have been through the pens agree, this might be the calf to own.

sire: 

DOB:

Dam Sire:

Grace Cattle is at it again as they bring us this ultra cool peach-colored calf, and he is one to get excited about! His ultra shapely rib, stout features, and extra power are pieces anyone will have some fun feeding. But what sets him apart is his unrivaled look from the side, as he comes clean through his front one third and sets down an attractive hip and hind leg. If you're wondering where this guy's future lies, ask Connor Northern who purchased the orange steer from Grace Cattle in last year’s LOTF Sale… You’ll find him at the backdrop at multiple shows.

Are we ever excited about the future of this one! A few things… First, this is Samantha’s favorite steer in the sale. I mean, if you’re looking for a dead broke steer that has all the power and the look of a show calf, then look no further. The extra shot of look this brockle offers, combined with his prospect steer pieces and flashy color will catch some looks in the ring for sure. His mellow personality is perfect for any age showman. He’s beginner ready and senior year good! And did we mention, his mother is the GREAT RIO?! Again, Rio is the cow that has hung, or who has produced cattle, that have hung numerous banners in the recent years. Get in on Sam’s pick!

sire: 

DOB:

Dam Sire:

Those fall jackpots are calling this one’s name. This blazed faced calf, who looks just like his daddy, and is out of an IGWT cow Colsons purchased from JWR in 2019, might be the best steer that Colson Cattle has raised to date. He might be the most complete steer to ever be offered through the LOTF Sale to date. To keep it simple, he’s long necked, extended, and still bold bodied and stout out of his hip. There’s a ton of potential in this steer whether you want to get him in the ring this fall or wait till your end-goal show! Either way, this calf will find the banners and buckles, period!

sire: 

DOB:

Dam Sire:

If you like a good county fair meat and potatoes kind of steer who is still going to be very competitive, then this one for you. He’s ultra stout structured and easily one of the growthier calves we have to offer. With the extra growth, it gives him lots of versatility to achieve many different endpoints. It’s hard not to appreciate the foot shape and bone in this one. And he’s still a calf that reads with plenty of muscle. If you’re looking for a calf that will find his way to the top end of most county fair shows without breaking your feed budget, then you’ll want to consider this dude.

sire: 

DOB:

Dam Sire:

If this red calf doesn’t catch your eye, or if he doesn’t look familiar right off the bat, then maybe you will recognize his stout and powerful build, massive hip, explosive top, and awesome attitude. Last year’s sale had a red calf we called Ricky Bobby. We’d like to introduce you to RB2. This is a full-blooded sib to last year’s calf, right down to the pen you will find him in at the sale facility. He’s a carbon copy of last year’s steer from Boyers, but better – especially as you evaluate him from the shoulder forward. He is packed full of muscle and hip shape, stands on a big ol’ set of pipes, and there’s no question this easy feeding calf has what it takes to be a great show steer. Sired by the one and only, even though they made several clones, Man Amongst Boys!

We realize this goggle-eyed calf may not blow you away in any specific area, but he and his flashy hair are sure to turn into a great county fair project! This steer also has a fantastic attitude and is one that has enough muscle shape that he can be shown as a slick. A little work on the Hereford hair, and you’ll have yourself a nice show steer. He is a steer that is sound, functional, and one that will be productive for you. Don’t hesitate to go in on this future fat steer’s practical body shape and flashy look. Another steer offered by Boyers and sired by the iconic show bull, Man Amongst Boys!

sire: 

DOB:

Dam Sire:

Without question, here’s one of the best profiling steers in the sale. In fact, this epically bred steer comes to us via The Frozen Classic Sale held by Griswolds each year. This ¾ blood Simme would be a great candidate for someone looking to make a run at junior nationals. The calf is deep bodied, stout muscled, big footed, sexy fronted, and moves like a cat. He has just enough blaze to get noticed without it being too much. He’s a levelheaded calf that we have sure been impressed with. With the cow power in this calf’s pedigree and with him being sired by the breed redefining bull, SAM, I think it’s easy for you to imagine yourself at the end of a halter in front of a jr. national’s backdrop.
