I have taken a “long view” in the breeding of these cattle - concentrating on proven bloodlines and dominant cow families to produce repeatable genetics. HERDBUILDER VI represents the distilation of 30 years in pursuing only the Best of Form, Function and Quality. You’ll find pedigrees rich in the greatest Blood of the Breed with the most reaching back to the rock solid influence of Leachman 600U, X339U and GW Mick 838B, followed more recently by the Breed’s maternal powerhouse Black Joker, all time breeding sensation Dream On and the calving ease, milk and carcass star, Shear Force! We are particulary excited this year to offer you an outstanding set of SimAngus cattle that truly showcase the “sweet spot” look and kind of the Simmental x Angus halfblood! 2008 was definitely a lesson in “real” value versus “paper” value as many saw their stock earnings evaporate.

On behalf of Larry Martin Cattle Sales and Jay Bookʼs Northland Farms, I would like to extend an invitation to Herdbuilder VI, a true Simmental and Simmy influence production sal. Jay hasnʼt had a production sale since 2002, but in 2009 has opened up the “front pasture gate.” He is offering one of the deepest quality sets of Simmentals in the Midwest. The Bred Cows are front pasture cows that you would find only selling in a herd dispersal, they are bred to top bulls like Encore, Trademark, Dream On, Shear Force, Dual Focus and Pacemaker. The bred heifers are the top cut from the 2007 Calf Crop, AI bred with several top percentage cattle selling. Junior exhibitors will find only the top show prospects available from Northland Farms, remember Jay hasnʼt been selling any of his heifer calves and you can select from the Best Ones born at Northland Farms in 2008! Commercial and Purebred cattleman can select future “power packed” herd bull prospects that will increase those weaning weights and take care of those horns. Northland farms has been breeding Homozygous Polled cattle longer than any breeder in the Midwest and his Herdbuilder IV production sale sold the famous donor cow 808H that was purchased by Hudson Pines Farm in New York. This is truly a production sale offering an outstanding set of black Simmental cattle!
