A
All right, so I'm extremely excited for the opportunity to be able to represent a recurring customer of mine. So fortunate enough, I've been able to have an awesome friendship with Clay Morrison. We've been able to represent him before and we're going to continue to represent him. So what we're going to be doing is essentially highlighting the four lots that he has there in the Lubbock Light sale that we did an introduction and a preview on that is happening this upcoming Saturday. He's got four lots in there that we're going to discuss and I'm pretty pumped up about them. They're pretty unique in their own rights. So first off, Clay, thank you for coming on and allowing us to do this for you. And with that, is there anything you want to leave the audience with before we dive into the lots?
- [00:42]
B
No, I don't think so. I'm happy to be back on. As far as the Ludic light sales go, we're going to have four head there. They're going to be lots 19 through 22. Love to chit chat about them for just a sec.
- [00:52]
A
Absolutely. Those four lots will be found on steer bidder for anybody. There's two different platforms for that Lubbock Light steel, but Clays are going to be on steer bidder. So Starting with lot 19, this is going to be an in God we trust. Out of a cow you call 71, 108, which is an out there headliner. This is a char or aoc extremely good dual purpose calf. In my mind. I think he's dense haired enough to definitely be a contender there at Fort Worth, but he also reads to have awesome shape up high and he reads to be extremely burly and robust about the center portion of his body, so. But his feet and legs are phenomenal. So I think to be highlighted there maybe at the turf, even at San Antonio would be really neat.
- [01:26]
B
Yeah, I agree with that. I think the the calf might be recognizable to some people. He was lot one in our March sale and we thought he was bringing a little bit under the money on his caliber of calf was so we had a backup plan for him. But when the Lubbock Light steel popped up, we thought it'd be a good time to to re rack him and and offer him again in a maybe a setting where he could stand and get some other ones and, you know, be evaluated by some more people. He's a calf that we really like all the way around with an he'll jackpot. Well, if you need a Fort Worth one, he could do that for you. I think he'll slick as good as any of them. Pedigree and build wise calf that just has very few holes and a lot of cool pieces. I think you can do a lot of stuff with him.
- [02:03]
A
Yeah, for sure. Lot 20 is your next prospect for the Lubbock Lights deal in God We Trust on a monopoly whiskey cow. This be a char or aoc. I mean you list just from San Antonio to Houston. I think that indicates that one that he's just an awesome slick sharing machine. I think he's got real nice hair coat to mess with and have fun with over the summer and fall. But I think this thing slicked off between San Antonio and Houston time. I think what what the indicator of that is is where he ends up in the state of Texas, what family has him and end up just where he needs to be. 12 o' clock at.
- [02:37]
B
Yeah, the Kef has really nice quality hair, but he just doesn't leg hair. For me to call him a Fort Worth caliber one just to talk about him a little bit. He's actually out of a heifer that we sold in our heifer sale a few years back to get a little plug in for our heifer sale that'll be coming up here in first week of June. The whiskey side of that cow pedigree would have raised the champion charolay two years ago at San Antonio and 24 for the Zaishang family with one that Tusa had sold for us. And that monopoly daughter is real good. Follows her a lot. And the the in God mating would make him I guess a 3/4 sib to the one that won it. San Antonio's, you know, kind of a lot of predictability in this mating and then as far as the calf goes, not good enough hair for your jackpots and your county show. If you got a one of those that pays real good. But build wise I don't think you can make one better. As far as his feet and legs, he's really soft and correct on his feet and legs. Doesn't take a bad step. And I think the best part about this calf is he's just in my opinion about perfect in his center body. The way he goes from his shoulder into his heart into his rib and from there back. I don't think you can make one much better. I think he's a calf that really feeds well, easy to maintain and manage and a calf that right at the end is going to be there right in the mix.
- [03:49]
A
Oh, I completely agree with that statement. Lot 21 is next of yours prospects and this can be a knock knock solid gold calf. He could be Red Cross, but you also list potential Red Angus. So I'm going to go ahead and assume that you probably pulled right.
- [04:01]
B
Yes, he's smooth pole, he's got a short fat head and a good eye. I'm not an expert on the Red Angus and I've seen him get kicked out for who knows what reason when they look like they might have got in. But I think he's one that would be worth trying if that's something you're interested in. And I think you'd have better than average odds of getting him in full transparency.
- [04:16]
A
I think you get that one in the Red Angus that you got an elite Red Angus show steer and that's not to take away if he doesn't make it in the Red Angus to go in the Red Cross. I think he's a really nice calf either way. He reads to be just like a dense made awesome hind legged calf that's got a lot of shape up high.
- [04:30]
B
Yeah, for sure. He's, he's really good made, he's got really good center body. I'm a big stickler on rib shape and all that stuff that makes a good slick shear and steer. So I think he fits that mold just right. And then as far as like the classifying deal, I think I've had some cabs that I thought were good Red Angus that maybe at the end we decided to run them Red Cross because of better weight breaks or more sail holes or something like that. But you know, one that I think you could definitely try to jackpot that way. And, and it might be in the cards at the end but either way looks like maybe a middleweight Red Cross, one that you could be real tough with in both breeds. Oh, for sure.
- [05:01]
A
Lot 22 is next. This is another one of your prospects and the last one of the Lubbock lights. Deal. And just reading the matings, it sounds like you were trying to make a Hereford and he come down. Not the right marking but I think it worked out perfect because I think he's an awesome main prospect. The calf reads to be a little greener compared to the few that we've talked about of yours. But I don't think that works to his demise because the calf's build is incredible.
- [05:22]
B
Yeah, this is a calf that we found over the sale weekend, you know, out in the back pen somewhere. And you know, he was skinny. I think if that thing would have been Hereford marked, I don't think that he would have been cut just without out there. His pieces are. But a calf that I love is a slick shear in Maine. He's fuzzy enough. If you needed him to be a, you know, a three through five or six at Fort Worth, you could make that work. And his color would stand out for sure. The calf has got some of the most unique pieces of anything you're going to stumble across as far as head and neck and how sharp and youthful he is up there. And then a calf that's super athletic in the way he goes. I will, just as a disclaimer, say that his attitude started out pretty rough, but he's getting better all the time. But I would say that probably a more experienced showman or at least a bigger kid is going to be beneficial, especially early on. But a calf that I think will get broke. And then on another thing, we found a hernia on him the day before our pictures when we were final clipping him. And we'll get that taken care of and, you know, care for him for the two or three weeks until he's healed up for whoever his new owner is before we get him to you.
- [06:21]
A
Awesome. And I go ahead and assume that all four calves will be up for display there at Cook's garage.
- [06:25]
B
Yep, we'll be at Cook's. I think the plan is to have them tied up from about 5 to 6 and then loosen a pin from 6 to 8. Yeah, if we'll have them tied up and if you'd rather see them loose, that'll be a little later in the evening. But they'll be there the whole window from 5 to 8 for people to check them out. Just for a little housekeeping. We are going to take all four of our Lubbock lights calves over to Patchke's red barn on Friday at lunch, and they will be there until they go to Cooks on Saturday afternoon. And I think as far as I know, all the steer bitter consigners will have their calves there at Patchke's red barn for that day and a half.

A
Perfect. Well, I know that just having a few conversations with you, Clay, that you'd love to talk to anybody and everybody about the cattle that are going to be there, and I'm extremely excited to see them myself become a huge fan of Morrison Livestock, and I'm really excited to to see them myself. So with that said, thank you for entrusting us to represent you, and I'm very excited to see them all once again. Empowerment's here, and we'll see y' all next time.
