FAVORITE QUOTE OF THE LATE LEONARD WULF

Why???WHY ARE THE HOOK AND WULF FAMILIES WORKING TOGETHER?Honestly analyzing talents and resources along with business goals, it becomes obvious a TEAM pulling in the same direction can accomplish more than an individual effort. Jim and Tom have known each other since meeting as teenagers showing cattle at the MN State Fair 4-H show in the mid 1970’s. While each was passionate about their breed of cattle, there was a mutual respect for how each competed: fairly and honestly. Through the decades, the beef industry and specifically the seedstock business would cause their paths to cross and the same mutual respect for each family’s growing operations was shared. When Jim and Twyla decided to make a business decision to purchase their own ranch, Tom was contacted to consult about purchasing Simmental seedstock. The two families have been working cooperatively together, while keeping their individual ownership and operations.

WHY COWS AT WULF’S AND BULLS GAIN TESTED AT HOOK’S?Once you lay eyes on the rolling glacial ridge pastures and ranch where the Wulf’s live, one is hard pressed to find a better cow/calf environment and set-up in the upper Midwest. Couple this with Wulf’s 40+ years’ experience in seedstock production; it makes sense to run both families’ cows together increasing the contemporary group size and subsequent accuracy. Having a good feed supply and existing lot space, Hook’s was the logical site to develop the bulls and gather all the scan , DNA and performance information as they were one of the first in the Simmental breed to provide this data for their customers.

WHY DNA TEST, ULTRASOUND AND PERFORMANCE TEST ALL OF THE BULLS?The answer is simple: To provide our fellow beef producers with the most accurate and compre-hensive data to make their seedstock selections. The bull selections made this spring will affect cowherds well beyond the next decade….. Make your selection from a seedstock provider who gives you all the data to make a wise decision.

SALE MANAGEMENT

BRED FOR Balance

PAGE 2 HOOK AND WULF

On behalf of the Hook and Wulf families and our growing team at Allied Genetic Resources, I would like to personally invite you to the first of what I am sure will be many events for the new Bred for Balance team. Focused programs and planned improvement describe so much of what these two families mean to the beef business. When you combine that drive with a consistent commitment to customers these two families have built strong independent brands for value. Now, in 2015 these brands are joining forces and pulling together to create something unique and better. Once again everyone has the opportunity to benefit from their commitment to concentrate great genetics and ulti-mately make better cattle at the Feb. 13 sale in Tracy MN. Whether you have interest in some of the most genetically advanced bulls available anywhere or wish to consider the list of herd improving females offered you will absolutely be impressed by the quality of the offering.

This year’s sale will be a full auction event and will utilize video tech-nology to present the bulls through the ring sale day. Please plan to be with us on the 13th or feel free to contact one of the sale staff with any questions or needs you may have.

Sincerely,

Marty RoppAllied Genetic Resources
