Several years ago, we diversified our cattle and hay operation to include soybean production on new and existing acres. lt has been an exciting venture for us and a different kind of personal competition of increasing our yields year over year while on the other side of the operation also increasing our cow numbers and hay production. Recently, Emily had the opportunity to travel to the southeast Asian countries of Cambodia, Vietnam and Singapore to see firsthand the ways the United Soybean Board is helping increase the export demand of US Soy and US Soy-fed products.

Truly bringing our very best to the 2023 Michigan Beef Expo selling as Lot 705. As a family we discussed when we put a halter on this one last weekend that he might be the best Gelbvieh bull we have ever raised. He is a culmination of three decades of careful breeding for excellence in every qualitative and quantitative trait. Bulletproof build and performance and pedigree that will suit even the top tier of seedstock producers.

So the obvious question why sell him at the Michigan Beef Expo? Because we believe in never forgetting where we came from and more than ever it is providing us clarity in our path forward in the cow business. We believe in live appraisal. We believe that every customer at every segment in the industry deserves quality. We believe in investing the time to cultivate lifelong generational repeat customers . We believe in trading loyalty for loyalty. So thank you for over 30 years of buyers at consignment sales and beyond ... that's the "why".

3G Gangster 973G ( AAA19379636) is proof performance Angus can have swag too. He was never a secret, just Overmiller's sight unseen purchase at a week old based solely on his pedigree (LD Capitalist 316 x Baldridge Isabel E765) but they got the added bonus of this profile and 16 EPDs that rank in top 30% of the breed (CE, BW, WW, YW, MARB, $W, $B). Three sons (Lot 95, 101 & 106) sell in Overmiller Gelbvieh & Red Angus Production Sale February 18th.

Update: Tested Diluter Free
3G Ghost Town 913G (1449448) BA38
Ghost Town is one of the most unique and exciting young herd sire prospects we have offered to date. Ghost Town ranks in the top 3% for WW & YW and the top 3%, 30% & 15% respectively for CW, REA, & MARB. Compile his performance and carcass values with the convenience traits of a negative BW, double digit CED coupled with the fact he is Homo polled and slick haired and this one has unlimited real world production potential. Granddams on both sides of his pedigree are some of the most noteworthy females in their respective breeds. On the bottom side 3G Touch of Silver 750T, likely due to her tandem of confirmation and color, was one of the most talked about females we have ever campaigned. And on the top side Baldridge Isabel Y69, dam of Baldridge 38 Special, is a million dollar producer that needs no introduction. Come visit him in Denver.
