2 Buyers and Visitors, November 4, 2017 We are pleased to welcome you to our 16th annual bred heifer sale. The Best of the Best program is a source of great pride in the Green River Area and one in which a great amount of time and hard work has been invested. Thank you for your interest in this extraordinary set of heifers and the management they represent. In the sale, you will not only have the opportunity to purchase the best of heifers in the state, but purchase heifers from farms who will stand behind them. These heifers are guaranteed bred for 30 days from date of purchase, all are re-pregnancy checked on sale day. For continued improvement in the sale, all heifers were required to be pelvic measured and pregnancy checked by the same individual. If you have a problem with a heifer purchased at this sale, call the owner, your County Extension Agent, or Ben Lloyd of the Kentucky Beef Network. The fact that the heifers pelvic measurement passed 160 sq. cm. at 12 months of age, and passed weight guidelines and visual screening, and are bred to calving ease sires gives you the buyer, a great chance of counting on these heifers being in your herd for many years. Because of our commitment to quality and integrity we take great pride in being the only sale in Western Kentucky offering heifers of this quality, meeting these requirements, with these guarantees. Once again, we thank you for your interest in the Best of the Best program and sale. If we can be of assistance, please feel free to ask.
