Dear Cattle Producers,
It is a pleasure for American Marketing Service to be associated with the Cadillac of Brangus Sale.
Don and Keith and their families are great to work with and have a true love for Brangus cattle.
We have known Don and have been familiar with their program for over 30 years. During that time
Thomas and Sons always has produced real world Brangus cattle, both registered and commercial,
that are perfectly suited to work in the fescue country of Missouri and adapted to go anywhere.
It is always a pleasure to work with Keith and Don in selecting the sale offering at Thomas and Sons.
You don
’
t have to worry about whether you can have a really good cow or pair or not. The gates
are opened and the great ones are available. As Don says, “ We want to sell good ones for our
customers!”
Don Thomas and Sons have built their program on proven Brangus cows that have earned their keep
in real world conditions. To that mix, they have constantly added the freshest genetics of the breeds
most powerful and popular bulls. Their current herd bull battery features twice Grand Champion
Mighty Mouse; the cowherd builder Lombardi; the good LTD son, Jayhawk; the really good breeding
Lambert son, Abilene; and Csonka; Magnum; and Presidente sons. They have recently added FDR
from Skyhawk Brangus and are way excited about his service on many of the sale cattle.
The offering consists of powerful young pairs with an outstanding set of calves at side. We will be
splitting the February and March heifer and bull calves at side, and they are good. We will also sell
a select group of young cows and bred heifers that are really nice. These cattle are all carrying the
service of the Don Thomas and Sons fresh and powerful herd bull battery. In addition we will feature
a fancy set of open heifers with the quality to go anywhere. The bulls in the sale, while limited in
number, are as powerful as a group as any that will sell this fall. Look closely at the good Singletary,
Lombardi and Ultrablack bulls on the front end of the offering.
Of special interest will be the 175 head strong commercial offering. There will be first calf heifer
pairs and bred and open heifers. They are as good as have ever been offered in this sale. After two
summers of severe drought, most of Missouri has had plentiful rains in 2014. If you need a top set of
commercial females from five head to a truck load, you should be in Missouri, September 13th.
We invite you to preview the offering at
or on DV Auctions, and to join us in
Madison, Missouri on September 12th and 13th for good Brangus cattle, good fellowship and good
food. If any of us with American Marketing Service can be of any assistance in your travel plans or in
helping with your cattle selections, please do not hesitate to contact us.
