Welcome Cattlemen: We would like to invite you to our 2010 production sale.

After a long, snowy and cold winter it is time for calving

and to see if our breeding decisions we made last year are

working. We have bulls and females that will work for you in the

future. We try to use a balance of traits with extra emphasis

on birth weight and disposition. Mike and I have bought a farm with feeding facilities for

about 1,000 head, so we can feed or customize feed more

calves of our bull buyers. Talk to me if you are interested

in having your calves backgrounded.

Leave your trailer at home we will deliver your bulls

after the sale. Buy with confidence that your purchase will work and

we will stand behind it. If you have any questions about anything in the sale call

me, Mike or Joel Edge. We look forward to seeing you on

Sale Day.Sincerely,

Gordy LudensLudens Family Limousin(605) 238-5659, (605) 661-6470 cell Gordy



Emphasis on:– Calving Ease – Disposition– Muscle – Feedlot Performance

Bred heifers & cows ... We have chosen to put some young cows along with some heifers on the sale. We put five Nero females on the sale, they make extremely good cows with the light birth weights, high maternal and super dispositions. They are bred to some of the popular AI sires in the breed. If you have the Wulf catalog Lot 5 is out of Primestar and a Nero cow that we sold in our 2007 sale.
