WOW, talk about a consistent pedigree. This is the 4th year in a row that a Monopoly X Alias calf has been lot 1 in The Showman's Choice Sale. This ET steer out of our Dalia Donor is a full brother to the $42,000 steer in our 2013 sale that went on to be the Grand Champion Steer at Aksarben, shown by Vada Vickland. Of the ET calves, this one reminds us the most of the Vickland steer, he is so complete and sound!

Here she is! A full sister to our top selling heifer from 2013 that Ben Weis successfully showed as Champion Chi at the Iowa Beef Expo and Iowa State Fair and Res Champion Chi at Badger and Aksarben. We feel this heifer is a bigger bellied, more feminine and more extended then her sister was at this stage. If you are looking for a big time Chi Heifer, look no further then Lot 2.

I'm a pretty big fan of the I-80 females and we have a couple in this year's sale that prove why. This one will make a believer out of anyone! She is the daughter of one of Tessa's former show heifers purchased from Matt Lautner and raised by Oakley Kershner. A maternal sister to this heifer was the many time Champion Chi heifer shown by Violet Lapke. Lot 3 is so neat made yet thick and sound-hard to find a hole in this girl. The mother of this heifer will become our next Donor! She has also been shown already and was the Grand Champion heifer at the Afton, Iowa Open Prospect Show.

Lot 4 has been a stud since the day she was born. This MAB is from our Northern Lite Donor that never misses. She has produced several high sellers and Champions over the years. This particular heifer is supper stout but still smooth in her design and sound as a cat. She reminds us of the her brother that was 5th overall at the Ohio State Fair in 2011 shown by Emma Prinz. If you want to play in Market Heifer Division jump in right here!

This Brockle Faced MAB is the perfect example of a "Fat Steer". He is the natural calf out of Dalia, and maternal brother to Vickland's Grand Champion Steer at Aksarben. This one is a truck and has impressed everyone by how super stout he is yet staying so smooth and sound! This one will do some WINNING early and late! He has already started his show career and was Reserve Champion Prospect Steer, Iowa State Fair and Grand Champion Steer Afton, Iowa Open Prospect Show.

Got Shag! Another calf from our Northern Lite Donor that sure doesn't disappoint. She is super hairy, stout, sound and as big of a belly as I have ever seen on a BIM. Plus her attitude is A+ for any showman! We feel she is best suited as a Market Heifer but that is for you to decide.

Charolais colored cattle seem to be the rage now and here is a really cool one! As soon as we put a picture of this heifer on the Blog and Facebook, we started getting texts and people were clicking "Like". Here is one super unique female. She blows people away with her Maternal Look, Freak Neck, Big Body and her Huge Feet. And yes...she too is out of an Alias cow! Her maternal brother was lot #1 and High Selling steer in last year's Showman's Choice Sale purchased by the Otis Family in Montana.

This one could very well be a 'Major Player' in the Maine division, he was the Reserve Champion Prospect Maine Steer at the Iowa State Fair. STOUT-SOUND-STYLE pretty much the 3 things you like about this one. His mother is a first calf heifer we purchased through one of Matt Lautner's online sales. This steer reminds us a lot of the I-80 steer Tyson Tucker purchased in last year's sale and has shown very successfully this year.

There is absolutely no other way to describe this red steer than to say he is really attractive! Those who have seen him have been totally amazed by how square hipped, cool fronted and elephant footed he is. This steer is a maternal brother to last year's high selling heifer in The Showman's Choice Sale purchased by Eric Walker of Arkansas.

Analyze this one real good. She is big footed, clean fronted, sweet profile with depth all the way to her flank. If this one had more condition and the hair she had as a calf she would be at the top of the sale order. We have liked this girl since day 1! Buy her and take her home and watch the magic begin! You will be glad you did!

As good as this heifer is built I wouldn't be afraid to return her to the pasture after her show career...you might just have your next donor!

The final Mittag consignment to The Showman's Choice Sale is a rare opportunity to own a full sister to the lots 1,7 and 15 steers. She is a beautiful blaze face heifer that will make a great show heifer and cow. This heifer is super sound and has that extra look like the rest of her siblings. A full sister to this heifer is the mother to the I-80 steer successfully shown by Tyson Tucker this year and heading to Aksarben.
