WEST FORK RANCH
CHAROLAIS & RED ANGUS PRIVATE TREATY BULL SALE
Dear Producers,
We are excited to offer our top set of Charolais and Red Angus bulls. Enclosed is a listing of the bulls. At West Fork Ranch, we continue to strive for uniformity, along with performance and these bulls show great potential. Comments from those who have already viewed the bulls say they look like the best set of bulls we've had. The bulls are developed on a growing ration, which is not designed for high gains, but to keep them growing, while maintaining their natural thickness and muscle.
This year we are again going to hold a Private Treaty Sale the first Saturday in March. The sale process will be similar to a silent auction. The bulls will be split into pens with a base price listed on each pen. Buyers will receive a buyer number and a card where you will list any bulls you are interested in bidding on. At Noon, we will place on a master board, your buyer number on the bull(s) that you have marked on your card. Starting at 1:00 p.m., there will be a bid-off between the buyers who match with a given bull. We will start with the bull with the most interest on him. Putting your number on a bull does not obligate you to bid on that bull but gives you the option to bid. At any time you may remove your number from a bull. After the first round of bidding, we will take a short break to view the bulls that have not sold. The bidding will then be open to everyone on the remaining bulls. We have chosen this merchandising format to give all our customers the opportunity to purchase from our entire group of bulls. You are welcome to stop at the ranch to view the bulls prior to the sale. If you are interested in bidding on a bull, but are unable to attend on sale day, we will work with you. Phone bids will be accepted.
We will keep the bulls until mid-April. Bulls purchased on March 6 th will be delivered free of charge within 200 miles. All bulls are guaranteed to be breeders. Any bull that has not been proven a breeder within 90 days after June 1 st , if in healthy condition, may be returned to us, at the buyer's expense. West Fork Ranch reserves the right to test the bull. Any bulls that do not sell on March 6 th will be for sale at private treaty after that day.
If you need more information or you would like to view the bulls prior to March 6 th , please call. Scheduling a time to look at the bulls allows us to better serve you. We would be happy to visit with you and offer our help in choosing the bull(s) that will fit your program. We can e-mail digital photos on any bull of interest. If I can be of assistance, please call my cell phone at 308-750-8708 .
We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, March 6 th . Plan to join us for lunch.
Thank you,
Roseann
