Welcome…Welcome to our 21st Annual Adair Ranch Bull and Heifer Sale. The 2013 season blessed us with above average crops and silage in our area as well as tremendous grass for the entire season. One of the greatest blessings over the past 21 years has to be the wonderful people we have met and the friends we have made in the Simmental business. Thank you for your interest and support of our program during this time.

Our cow herd is calving in April and May thus aligning the cows nutritional requirements with peak seasonal grass production. We have applied heavy selection pressure to our cowherd for sound udders, feet and fleshing ability. Our cows utilize standing corn, stubble grazing, chaff piles, swath grazing, bale grazing and stock piled pasture through the winter months. The first year the bulls are wintered on a growing ration and then on grass from mid-April to mid-November when we start to feed a balanced high roughage ration. This set of bulls born in April/May have the potential to cover more cows in the first season.

Sires represented in our 2014 sale include TNT Blackberry U215, TNT Gunsmoke U223, TNT Tanker U263, Red Beckton Hustler S426, SAV Pioneer 7301, KEN X-Emplare 822X, KEN X-Plodition 863X, KEN X-Plosive 866X, TNT Fire It Up Y365, RFS Red Iron T20, and MRL Red Force 12U.

We have an excellent set of Simmental influenced heifers including red blaze-faced and black heifers. These heifers are consigned by our valued bull customers and represent some exceptional commercial cattlemen.

If you have any questions about the bulls or females, contact Ken or Bruce. Definitely stop by the ranch to appraise the bulls prior to the sale or join us in Provost on March 19, 2014 for a beef lunch with the sale at 1:00 pm.

“We have grown our Simm-Angus program, on both the sire and the dam side, long enough to get a feel for their value. We were concerned about how consistent and predictable they would be. If you cut me I’d bleed Simmental blood and feel there will always be a demand for the purebreds. We have spent a lot of time researching the Angus and Red Angus breeds and truly feel when you cross the best of both breeds; Simmental with Angus or Red Angus, very few purebreds of either breed can compete. They are proving to be extremely predictable and consistent.”Kevin Thompson, TNT Simmentals, Almont, ND
