We were excited to have them and stillare. We have purged our herd a few times since then, culling out the ones that didn’t produce &AI’ing most of the remaining does to bring our herd to where we can expect 200” sons consistentlyat 2 and 3 years of age. Width and tine length are the main points I look for when planningfor the future. My wife Ruth and our family have pitched in and have helpedtremendously. This year we were pleased with what the bucks were doing on our farm withGeyser, a Raindance son, exploding at 3 years old with a score of 343”. He is 23” on the insidewith over 14” G-2’s. We sold him in the fall after breeding with him to Russ Bellar, the owner withEddie Ray Burkholder of X-Factor. The new buck on the block is Showboat, a yearling son ofMaxbo Supreme and Janie, that we purchased from Danny and Vonda Yoder. He is over 20 1/2”on the inside and has the carriage of an aristocrat. We have a lot of confidence in him for thefuture.Hope to see you at the auction!!Lot 1Lot 67FridayExxonFridayBred Doe, 4 Years OldScoutBred Doe, 1 1/2 Years OldAngusMaxChiefScout 252” @2BoomerYellow 36N/AYellow 222Redoy JimRedoy BillDenaYellow 34Buddy 220” @4Zeiglar doeN/AComments: 4 year old bred doe, not bottle fed but calm.
