Welcome to Back to the Basics VIt is really hard to believe this is already our fifth sale. First and foremost, thank you to our past customers

for putting their trust into our operation. We realize without your support this fifth sale would not be possible.

Second, thank you to everyone for taking the time to review this catalog. Whether you are a repeat customer or

this is the first time to view our catalog, we truly appreciate your interest in our program. Your excitement and

interest is what makes us work harder and strive to produce the best cattle we can.

Every year our goal is relatively simple; to produce a better product then years past for you our customer.

Each of the previous four sales has numerous stories of success in the pasture and in the show ring. Only time

will tell what the fifth offering has in store, but along with many early visitors, I believe this is the best set to

date. Jim once told me that he felt like he got a late start in the cattle industry, and we need to catch up as fast

as we can. Through the purchase of some great donors and an extensive embryo transfer program I feel we have

been able to narrow that gap. We have many siblings, daughters, and granddaughters of some really great cat-

tle in the industry.We are very excited to offer you a very deep set of open heifers. We truly love talking about the cattle

industry and enjoy being part of it. Please feel free to call us anytime with any questions about the show ring,

pasture, or our program. We look forward to seeing you all on the 7th of November. If you are unable to attend

I urge you to check out our website in late October to view videos of all the sale lots. I encourage you to take

advantage of our absentee bidding option through Superior Livestock and feel free to contact any of our sale

consultants with any questions. Once again, we thank you for your support and confidence in our program.

Last year we had the opportunity to buy Boss Beauty 84M. We knew when we bought her we were getting half-interest in a very productivefemale. What we didn’t know was how consistent she was with every calf, and how she was capable of passing on so much power and substanceinto such neat packages. Last year alone, this cow produced over $250,000 in just three head. Whether it is a bull or heifer, her calves seem to riseto the top. Needless to say, we are very excited to be offering you these daughters of 84M.

Owned with Bob May

Everyone knows just how impressive Irish Whiskeydaughters are in production, and this PHA-Free daughter is no exception. Erica 5T was very successful in the show ring for

Taylor Hett and was champion MaineTainer at the Colorado State Fair in 2008. Every judge admired her power and rib shape and ravedabout how this heifer would turn into a great cow. On her firstflush, Mercedes Benz was the choice to bring a little style and hairto the equation, and these two knocked it out of the park. Thesethree sisters are so impressive, in terms of body depth and thatswooping rib shape we are all looking for. They combine so many ofthe right attributes to be successful, not only in the show ring butalso in the pasture. Be sure to check out their flush mate brother onsale day. He will make these three sisters even more valuable.

These two Lot 4 heifers may be the ones we are mostproud of here at BBR. Their mother, BBR Milky Way, waspurchased in our very first sale by Morgan Burke. She hada very successful show career with numerous champi-onships, including Supreme Female Over-All-Breeds of the2008 Nebraska Cattlemen’s Classic. Luckily we kept a flush

in this outstanding young donor from the Burke, Wiese,and Snell program. 4a has been admired by so manyearly visitors. She is the type of MaineTainer female thatis winning today. Ultra cool through her shoulder and

neck, really big hipped, and super shaggy. This one isgoing to be fun to show.

We decided it would be best to split two flushes on MilkyWay, so we decided to make high-percentage Maines withSooner, and we are glad we did. 4b is super stout andhuge bellied for a young high-percentage female.She is still really correct in her type and is reallygood haired. Jump on board the Milky Way trainwith these two impressive sisters.

These two Sooner daughters are like two peas in a pod andare definitely a must-see. They are really big bodied, soundmoving, fault-free individuals that look to be very versatilein any breeding program. With Sooner semen being harderand harder to come by, these direct daughters will be hard-er to find at public auctions, so take advantage.

We purchased JDJ Ms Natalia from Jason Spotanski about three years ago as an open heifer off of Tim Burke’s sale. Even as acalf, this female had donor written all over her. For a purebred Maine, she has an unbelievable amount of rib shape andpower and the type of back leg you wish you could put in all of them. To add a shot of hair and style, we chose Franchise

and got these three beautiful daughters. 8a definitely has a show ring presence. She ties in perfectly through shoulder andfront end and looks like she could be a force to be reckoned with next fall. The b lot is very similar in type and kind. She is the type that

the more you study her, the harder it is to pick any sort of hole in her. The c lot is the most moderate off the three sisters and is definitely the cow ofthe bunch. Choose which one of these sisters fits you program the best, you will be happy with the outcome.

Sire: Monopoly (Heat Wave X Century Touchstone Angus)Dam: Miss Blue (Shorthorn X Maine)

This wonderful red female is going to be a reallygood steer momma. She is a really big bodied,sound moving, shaggy female that is very straightin her lines. She should be in her new owner’sherd for many years to come.

This one is big-time good. This young Monopoly daughteris really big hipped and as stout as a female needs to be.

With all the bone and power this female has, shestill impresses you in terms of a beautiful frontend and plenty of rib shape. Many early visi-tors question whether this female will gomarket heifer or breeding heifer. Whatevershow ring you decide to take this shaggy

female to, she is going to be successful.

A really nice young April heifer. We just useda cane of Monopoly semen last year, and wedid not get a throw away calf out of all ofthem. This youngster has got plenty ofattention all summer. She is really goodnecked and big hipped. I really like howthese Monopoly females are big hipped, yetfairly flat in their design. 22

Fox Milk Maid 1XChianina • Polled • DOB: 5.1.10 Sire: Friction (Full Flush X Meyer 734) Dam: Milk Maid (Heat Wave X Went Charolais)Consigned by Brian Fox & Fox Show Stock

We bought Milkmaid 3 years ago as an open heifer off of TimBurke’s sale. She is a full sib to the very successful smoky bull,Milk Man. Her mating to Friction is her best to date. Thisyoung black heifer was still a touch green at picture time, butshe continues to improve daily. She is extremely cool frontedand super sound. On top of that, she is really good haired for aFriction. These Friction females are pretty sought-after in theclub calf world, and this young may heifer will make money.Milk Maid Dam of Lot 23. 23

BBR Xtra Smooth 1069XHorned • DOB: 4.5.10

Sire: Smoth Sailing (HW X Miss Perfection) Dam: Burke 065 (Meyer 734 X Angus)

We traded some eggs with Burke and got thisSmooth Sailing heifer out of a really good Meyerdonor of his. She is big hipped and powerful withplenty of shag. This one should be fun as a marketheifer and then a future club calf momma.

This white baldy female gets her name because wecouldn't hardly find her in the snow when shecalved. My wife Paula started calling herSnowflake, and the name just stuck. This futureclub calf momma has all the pieces to raise a greatone someday. She is moderate in her design andreally functional looking. She will be a great candi-date for all the Heat Wave sons when she grows upand moves to the front pasture.

Dam of Lot 26.

We bought some pregnant recips from long time friend,Bill Cody. We were looking to get some big-time steers.Instead we ended up with these killer females, and asgood as they are, we are sure glad we did. These sistersare fun to have around the place. They are all a little bitdifferent, but all have tons of potential. They have anawesome cow behind them in Cody 7. In the past twoyears, she has produced over $150,000 in progeny andshows no sign of slowing down. With this maternal gemin their pedigree, there are plenty of success stories tocome from these sisters.
