Greetings Fellow Cattlemen,

What a great time to be in the cattle business! Please join us Saturday, November 22, 2014 at 1:00 pm at the farm for our sixth annual production sale and our strongest line-up yet!

Now, I’m not one to toot my own horn, but this is undoubtedly the best set of cattle we’ve ever offered and the kind that any cattleman (or woman) should be proud to raise. It’s taken 38 years of rigid selection to produce the cattle in this offering but it was worth the wait. And it’s extremely exciting to see the fruits of our labor becoming top producers in herds around the country. These cattle have rock solid genetics, breed-leading performance and outstanding phenotype with consistency and style. They are the result of stacking multi-generations of breed greats, including our own bloodlines.

These cattle are athletes raised in real-world environments, bred to travel rough terrain, designed to efficiently convert grass to meat, thrive on fescue, and withstand wide temperature extremes which are routinely experienced in these mountains.

They are multi-purpose cattle. Whether you’re a purebred breeder, commercial cow-calf producer, or want to win in the show ring, there’s something here for you.

The bulls, whether SimAngus™ or purebred, are extremely uniform and rugged. And the females, SimAngus™ and purebred, are feminine, have nice udders and exceptional dispositions, and each one should be staying in our herd. Then finally, the embryos are from our elite donors including King Pin’s dam, who have proven themselves top performers time and time again. And lastly, I’d like to extend a sincere “thank you” to the talented, dedicated individuals who have helped make this sale possible. Special thanks to Barry Armstrong and his fencing crew for their efforts year-round. Without the help of everyone involved this sale wouldn’t be possible.

Again, we are extremely proud to present this offering and we’re committed to sharing our top genetics. Please visit our website to view the on-line catalog and videos. Our video auction is held in an 1860’s barn decorated with old farm implements and antiques. Come and view the cattle on this historic Century Farm and enjoy the southern hospitality. And as always, thank you for your friendship year-round and for your interest in our program!If you have questions or need assistance please contact us.

Lisa ZirkleShenandoah Valley Simmentals

At this time I want to invite you to Shenandoah Valley Simmentals owned and operated on a daily basis by Lisa Zirkle. The sale will be held at the farm in Quicksburg, Virginia on Saturday November 22nd at 1:00. Lisa has been raising quality, performance oriented Simmentals for 30 plus years. Shenandoah has been selling bulls privately for many years plus has had five production sales. Lisa resides on a century farm that was originally settled in 1735. You will find a great hospitality by Lisa and her crew plus you find great Simmental genetics that have been proven for many generations. This sale is a unique setting and is beautiful so it needs to be a must attend for any serious breeder.

The sale offering is strong and anyone should find quite attractive from a buyers stand point. The bulls are stout and ready to go work for your program whether commercial or purebred. The bulls will offer calving ease and performance plus will be a wide range of pedigrees. Please call Lisa on the bulls and any other lots, she knows this offering inside and out. This year there is a few older bulls that are two year olds, they are impressive and no doubt will get the job done. As far as the females, Lisa would like to keep them all however this year “ the Valley” sale offering is stronger than ever with great purebreds and SimAngus™. This year is offering will include some special embryos lots and some semen from some of Shenandoah Valleys top herd sires. Remember King Pin is In the Genex lineup and should be on your list to sample. Last years sale was a big success with cattle selling to 12 states from Florida to South Dakota. Again, every lot in this sale is backed by years of building strong, production oriented, real world traits.

This years sale offering will be on display on Friday and Saturday and you will be able to view at your leisure. The data, current EPDs, scrotal information, and additional information will be available. On sale day the cattle will not be taken thru the ring. All bulls and females in the sale had video footage taken of them and you will see on screen. Matter of fact, I would encourage all parties to view the video clips of each lot prior to sale week.

We can’t say enough good things about Groovin’. This homozygous black Trailblazer son out of a second calf heifer has unlimited potential. With 9 EPDs in the top 30% of the breed, he excels in the growth, maternal and carcass arenas.

This meat wagon is packed with mass and power, high capacity, a wide top, and yet is long-strided and rambles with ease. Groovin’ should sire low birth weight calves that push the scales on sale day.

She’s up-headed and clean-fronted with plenty of volume, has a beautiful profile and a pretty udder. What would I change about her??? Absolutely nothing.

Black Ruby Family

During the Civil War northern troops scoured the countryside killing livestock and stealing or destroying food that may sustain the Confederates. The original barn was burned and livestock slaughtered. The fire made windowpanes in the house too hot to touch. The barn was rebuilt after the war and today it is our sale barn.

Here’s a diamond in the rough just waiting for the opportunity to prove the type of calves he can sire. Diamond Jim is a natural calf of our cornerstone donor, Red Silk, who’s no stranger to Simmental breeders. At 16 years of age, she’s still raising a rock solid calf every year and remains a prolific donor. Cattle with her longevity, performance and style are hard to find. Combining the Red Silk family with that of Black Ruby produced this powerful bull. He has a calm disposition and balanced EPDs with plenty of maternal ability and growth, and an adjusted weaning weight of 799 pounds. He’s moderate, extremely clean-lined, strong-topped and heavy muscled with a wide, square hip. Use this high capacity sire to add growth, muscle, eye-appeal and maternal ability. He should produce outstanding females that are the focal point of any herd.

Boogie Woogie is a SVS Snap Shot daughter who combines the genetics of Right-On and Red Snapper on the sire’s side with those of Bold Cat and Pollfleck on the dam’s side. These older genetics still produce the right kind of rock solid cattle that perform. With solid EPDs, she’s a high maternal female in the top 4% of the breed for milk and 10% for maternal weaning weight with an adjusted weaning weight of 717. She’s a high-volume, easy-fleshing, strong-topped, pretty-fronted, feminine female that travels with ease. And she’s doing an outstanding job raising her solid black Ranch Hand bull calf. Genetics with this magnitude of performance are few and far between.

What is this? It was dried by Native Americans and baked in bread, makes a delicious jam, and is loved by wildlife. First it’s green, then turns orange, but don’t taste it until it turns deep red/purple after a heavy frost. If you do it will make your mouth pucker. The persimmon!

American Made is a blaze-face, homozygous black SVS Humdinger son, probably the last to ever be sold. Those of you who are familiar with these genetics know their value. American Made is clean-fronted, long and well-muscled in a moderate frame, and has an excellent disposition. His maternal sibling, SVS Sweet Dream, was successfully shown by Lyndsey Grove of Virginia in multiple interstate shows. While American Made has balanced EPDs and will certainly sire calves that grow, take advantage of Humdinger’s special talent which was siring amazingly productive, stylish females. With a stayability in the top 5% of the breed, American Made, like his sire, should excel in producing females that are the keepin’ kind.

The Confederates had heavy casualties during the Civil War. Rural homes were often used as makeshift hospitals. Artificial limbs were made from black willows since the wood is soft, light and easy to whittle. All black willows on this farm were harvested for limbs and after the war cuttings were collected from a neighboring farm and replanted. They still grow along our stream, and always will.
