33rd Annual Blue River Gang Sale - Sunday, February 8th

Welcome All Fellow Cattlemen!

Welcome to our 33rd Annual Simmental, Sim-Angus & Angus Production Sale!

First and foremost, we would like to send out a big thank you to everyone who has supported this sale in the past; without you we would not have as successful of a sale as we do today. We truly believe that this is one of the most powerful and complete sets of cattle we have ever offered. As many already know, there are four consignors that make up the Blue River Gang and we all strive for the same goal, which is to provide cattle that will improve your herd on all levels. Through the years of having this sale, we have experienced the ups and downs of the cattle market and have persevered through all, never changing our common goal. As you all know, cattle prices are very desirable right now and look to stay there for the next few years to come. It’s times like these where cattlemen can take advantage of the current markets to improve their quality of cattle for the not so fortunate times down the road and it would be our honor to help you with these improvements. Every year, our open heifers sold on this sale are eligible for a futurity show held in June at the Ruth farm following the sale. With $1500 of total winnings over nine places, this can be a very worthwhile event. The futurity is not limited to just 4-H and FFA members. It is open to anybody purchasing heifers at our sale. We hope everyone can make plans to attend the 33rd annual Blue River Gang Sale. If you have any questions with the sale offering, please feel free to contact any of the breeders or the sale management. Hope to see you on sale day!

We personally feel this heifer would compete very well in a purebred Simmental class. It is hard to make heifers this correct and this powerful with a zipper front end like this girl possesses. She has been shown and is very gentle. She’s got the look, and the pedigree is there, the rest is up to you.

This heifer comes from TLT Cattle, Travis and Lindsay Truksa. Mr. Confidence does a great job of stamping his calves with a great middle, great hip, and making them structurally sound and this girl is no exception. She has that show heifer look and is bred to be a great momma cow down the road. Halter Broke!

Believe me, this heifer is every bit as good as her sister. This heifer excels on her feet, has enough power and balance to compete in the show ring and has a pedigree and the EPDs that will make an impact on any herd! Halter Broke!

This solid red heifer will make any one take a second look. Her mother was an old show heifer of ours who has delivered year after year and this might be one of her best. A heifer that will compete every time in the show ring and then go out and make an excellent cow. These Hardcore cattle make great females and with him now deceased, I wouldn’t imagine there will be too many running around, so take advantage of this opportunity. Halter Broke!

This heifer comes from TLT Cattle, Travis and Lindsay Truksa. They brought their best this year, so take advantage. The 632 cow has raised one of the top weaning weight calves year in and year out and has sold a bull or heifer for them every year since they acquired her as a heifer. The production of this heifer could turn out to be very profitable, so don’t miss this great looking heifer. Halter Broke!

This heifer is a true sale feature! No need to go into a lot of detail on how she looks, her picture should do enough talking for her. This heifer on the move is where she stands out even more; she does an extremely good job of filling her tracks, and has great flex in her rear wheels. The pedigree is there, the quality is there, she is show broke and ready for the backdrop! Full brother sells as Lot 53.

An own daughter of Meyer 734, and out of Chris Beutler’s Belle donor cow. This mating has worked time and time again creating very powerful females in some big name herds. We were fortunate enough that the egg split on this embryo, so we retained one heifer and are offering her to you. Think of her as a bred. The value of this perfect blazed faced heifer with this look and pedigree would be terrific! Halter Broke!

This commercial heifer is one of our stoutest in our offering. Powerful heifers like these that possess this much depth of body, but remain this feminine are true assets that can be used in several different ways. Breed her clubby or Simmental, I think that you will like your result every time. This heifer comes from a great milking cow family. Halter Broke!

A few years back, a full sibling to these bulls sold and he topped the sale. After years of successful mating out of our 412 Angus donor, we decided to flush her right back to Ollie and man, we’re sure glad we did! The performance in these three bulls is tremendous and I would imagine they are going to put it right back into their calves. Whether you are looking to add pounds to your calves or are looking to increase maternal traits, these bulls should cover both areas of production and have the numbers to back them. These bulls would be a great addition to any herd.

It is hard to poke a hole in this guy! This is one of the most complete bulls that has ever been raised on this farm. Excellent depth of body, rib shape, ties into a great front end, but the most impressive aspect of this bull is how correct he is and how well he moves. He is also supported by great numbers. This bull has been a favorite of many and was named Champion Junior Percentage Bull Calf at the 2014 NE State Fair. B 520 is out of a highly functional cow that has a tremendous udder and mothering abilities.

The phenomenal first calf crops by Angus Valley have exceeded all expectations and proven him as a consistant calving ease sire who transmits growth, muscle, performance and eye catching style. SAV Angus Valley 1867 will be one of the most impacting calving ease sires to ever surface from the Schaff Angus Valley program.

I love the way this female is made: long bodied, good middled, and ties into a great front end. The only reason we are letting this female go is because she is bred a little too late for our needs. Vet called for a late May to June calf.

We originally bought this female from Willers Mitten Brand. Since she has been in production, she has had three calves. All of them have been steers that have sold on our fallclub calf sale. We were hoping for a heifer with this mating, so we had her pasture exposed to Mr. Confidence. For as good as the steers have looked, a female out of this young cow could be very valuable. Anything with Whiskey in its blood is a hot ticket, so don’t miss out on this one. This was Cassie’s only cow and if there wasn’t a wedding and collegeto pay for, this female would not be leaving the farm!
