WELCOME CATTLEMEN to our 15th Annual Gelbvieh
and Balancer bull sale. As always the bulls have been
performance tested, ultrasounded for carcass, semen
tested, and the black bulls have been DNA tested for
homo black and been marked in the catalogue. Hope-
fully this information will help you make the best possi-
ble decision on what bull best fits your program.
Scrotal measurements will be available sale day or on
the website.
This year’s offering has never been better with the
quality running deep throughout the offering. Whether
you are looking for blacks or reds, Balancer or PB Gel-
bvieh the selection of bulls is outstanding.
If you have any questions on this year’s bulls, feel free
to contact Dustin, Jerry Mettler, or myself. We will do
our best to answer any questions you might have.
In closing, I would like to thanks all our friends, neigh-
bors, and customers for all your support this last year.
Sincerely,
Steve & Denise Schroeder
