Dear Friends:
On behalf of the OSU Purebred Beef Cattle Center and the Department of Animal Science, wel-
come to the 34th Annual OSU Cowboy Classic. We are very excited about this sale offering and
believe that we have an exceptional group of cattle to offer. We hope that you will be able to join
us on
Sunday, April 7, 2013
.
This sale features many of the most elite cow families in the Angus breed and a set of females
that could serve as the foundation of any herd. Included are a tremendous set of young, pro-
ductive cows with spring-born calves and a set of heifers that will favorably compare to any you
can find.
The bulls are very good and ready to be out with cows. They are sound, powerful and problem-
free while offering reliable genetics to add value to your cow herd and keep your operation
profitable. All bulls sell with our breeding soundness guarantee.
You will notice that several lots were selected, based on individual performance and pedigree,
to be Zoetis 50K tested, and they now have genomically enhanced EPDs. We believe strongly that
this technology offers increased confidence to you, the buyer, that the genetics you are invest-
ing in will meet or exceed your expectations.
Thanks for taking the time to look through this catalog and attend the sale. If you are unable to
attend the sale, absentee bidding will be available on the internet through DVAuction, or feel free
to contact any member of the sale staff.
We remain committed to our objective of customer satisfaction, and we are here to help you find
cattle that will work well in your program. The cattle can be viewed anytime between now and
April 7th. We look forward to the opportunity to show you the cattle and answer any questions
you may have.
Sincerely,
Mark Z. Johnson
