For those of you whom are repeat customers, we thank you for the opportunity to earn your business and hope to continue our relationships. Those of you whom are prospective customers, we would appreciate the opportunity to earn your business. We at WMCC fully appreciate each and every one of our customers, whether it be a single straw of semen or our highest auctioned animal. Each customer is valued and appreciated equally. We enjoy hearing the progeny reports & customer feedback on how these cattle perform, as that s our barometer for success. This set of cattle is fantastic. Each year I believe we put together a better set than the last; I can t wait until you see this set of cattle. We ve earned a reputation for selling cattle that work well in many facets of the industry. We primarily use the Sim-Angus cross for their ability to be more efficient, fertile, and attractive than the cattle of purebred status. This cross is also ideal for club calf producers and commercial producers alike. You simply cannot make a better cow than with the Simmental x Angus cross, in my opinion. We believe these cattle should be efficient, sound, good tempered, attractive, and fertile. We invite each and every one of you to Muscatine, IA on January 4th to evaluate the cattle we ve put together for your appraisal. We re sure you will find something to improve your herd, whether it is bred females, embryos, or bulls. Happy Holidays and God Bless, Willie, Leah, Beau, Maverick and Sterling Morris WILLIE MORRIS CATTLE ph: 319.269.0844 www.williemorriscattle.com Visit our site for updated photos & videos! On behalf of Dwyer Cattle Services, Willie Morris Cattle Company, and the elite set of consignors who complement this year s sale offering, we welcome you to the 2014 installment of the Royal Edge. This year s sale brings you the opportunity to purchase some of the hottest and most time-tested genetics in the cattle industry today. This set of bred females are as deep a set as has ever been offered in this sale s history, and the herd bull prospects are extremely unique in their pedigree & quality. Cattle purchased from past Royal Edge sales have gone on to make top end donors and brood cows. Currently, the cattle industry as a whole is facing one of the best times to add youth to your herd. Pound cows are reaching some of the highest levels they have ever seen, and the need for beef is growing each and every week. With that the need arises to put young fresh genetics into your herd. This year s offering has cattle that will fit every type of operation. From elite show cattle to top quality replacements, Willie and his consignors have brought their best for you to evaluate. If you have any questions, feel free to contact any member of the sale management team. Thank you in advance for your evaluation of this year s offering, and we hope to see you in Muscatine, Iowa.
