Dear Fellow Cattlemen,

We would like to say thank you for your past support of the Frank Turner & Sons program. We realize you have many places that you may choose to purchase cattle from and we sincerely appreciate you selecting our cattle for use in your program.

We know this is a very busy time of the year and hope things are going well for your operation. Everyone is working to find ways to increase their efficiency as well as production. Frank Turner and Sons understands those challenges as we face the same obstacles you encounter. As a result of our search for stronger genetics, we traveled to the Gardiner Angus Ranch in Kansas and purchased four new herd sires that we feel will give us an edge thus improving your operations through your continued use of our genetics. The first bull we purchased was Lot 2, GAR Objective 5496, who is the #3 $Beef non-parent bull of the Angus breed. He has an 18.6 inch Adj REA and records a yearling weight EPD of +124. His dam is a maternal sister to GAR Solution. The second bull was Lot 6, GAR Retail Product 6276, who is a powerful Retail Product son that is out of a tremendous Bon View New Design 1407 dam. He has a $Beef of 62.64 with a yearling EPD of +102. The third bull, Lot 16, GAR Objective 7676, is another Objective son with a +61.38 $Beef and a yearling EPD of +112 which places him in the top half of the top 1% of the Angus breed for non-parent bulls. The fourth bull was Lot 153, GAR Chair Rock 5050 K856, who is the #3 non-parent bull of the Angus breed for Rib Eye. He has a 19.7 inch Adj REA. This is a bull that truly will add muscle.

Is Frank Turner and Sons committed to improving our cattle? You bet we are! These bulls used in a selective manner will produce future generations of top quality Angus genetics that will also help to improve your bottom line.

At Frank Turner and Sons we are not into the latest fad nor are we trying to be included in the “you buy from me and we will buy from you” circle. What we are trying to do is produce top quality cattle that will perform and in turn help those who purchase from us.

We would greatly like to know how your Frank Turner and Sons cattle have performed for you, be it good or bad. This is the only way we can survive and keep your business.

You are invited to come by the farm anytime and especially on November 1 when we will host our 2008 Sale.

Let us know if we can assist you in any manner.

Sincerely,

Frank Turner, Owner

David Innes, Manager
