Dam Sire:
Without a doubt, one of the best steers we’ve offered in the LOTF Sale. This orange steer is a flat-out STUD! Sired by the great Bet On Red and out of an IGWT cow Grace Cattle purchased from Oklahoma, this big boned, heavy muscled, and extremely sound steer will be the lead off steer in this year’s sale. This calf just offers so much center mass and true skeletal width. His combination of true power, balance, structural integrity, and hair, makes him an easy standout in this year’s sale and an easy choice if you want to go win a show! He was bred and raised by Grace Cattle.

Lot #7 - HUNTER BIDEN’S LAPTOP X CHOPPIN WOOD/ANGUS
sire:
DOB:
Dam Sire:
This HBL steer comes to us from Maddie Neuschwander. He’s designed right from the ground up. He carries a massive top into a long and level square hip. Speaking of hip, this calf is big pinned when you get behind him. This steer, who has great hair and a sound foundation, has an amazing sweep to his belly when you study him on the profile. This steer packs a lot of power and good into his moderate frame. He will be one that’s easy to manage for the first-year exhibitor, yet competitive enough for the more experienced showman.

Dam sire:
This perfectly balanced and massively muscled smoke steer comes to us from our longtime friends at Hinton Cattle. When you study on this steer, you can’t find a fault. This flexible and free moving steer is so well made through his front end and ties a perfectly angled shoulder into a big ol’ gorilla back. He possesses massive rib shape and carries that mass into a soft flank. The power and design of this steer’s hip and his hindleg is impressive! This steer is going to be competitive on the jackpot scene and one I wouldn’t want to show against at my fair

Check out this red steer! Sired by the original MAB, this steer is just cool. Bred by Boyer Farms, “Ricky Bobby” is a fan favorite. Not only is this calf packing power, but he also has personality.

He’s made right and offers a ton of product. He’s a steer where you appreciate his natural muscle expression, rib shape, and depth of flank. Who doesn’t love one with good red hair? Here is one of the more bulletproof prospect steers in the sale!

Dam Sire:
This end of January born steer is the one we call, “Mark”. Mark is an extra embryo that was included in the package we purchased from the 2021 Frozen Classic Sale. One thing we do know is he’s no relation to his Simmental flush mate, tag 13. Mark is the perfect market steer calf. He is a competitive calf who is very structurally sound, big topped, stout, and he has plenty of hair, giving him that extra show ring appeal. This steer has a tremendously soft middle and will be an easy feeding project. This calf is one of the best natured in the offering, again making Mark the perfect market steer project for any exhibitor.

Here’s the second Purebred Simmental steer being offered in this year’s sale.

Dam Sire:
If you are looking for a later steer who is the most efficient converter for those late summer or early fall fairs, look no further. The clubby bull Choppin Wood has done incredible things for our program and for numerous others. Kane Damon showed a full sib to this calf in 2017 and found lots of success. That steer of Kane’s finished in the top 5 that year at the Linn County Fair. When you study this steer, it’s easy to see that he’s great structured, well muscled, and balances extremely well. A power and performance steer here. He will be an easy feeding steer perfect for those who are looking for one they can push the entire way to their endpoint.
