New for 2011 Sire!!


CHAMP

Raised by Allan Kohlhaas Family (Lu Verne, IA)
Sire: Friction
Dam: Heat Wave x Sunseeker

Owners:
Matt Lautner 515.450.2800
Allan Kohlhaas Family 515.341.2435

"Champ" descends from two dominating Iowa State Fair champions shown by Mandy Kohlhaas! His mother was Reserve Grand Champion Market Heifer at the 2009 Iowa State Fair and his grandmother was Grand Champion Market Heifer for Mandy at the 2007 Iowa State Fair! Talk about Cow Power!!!!! We will have our upcoming promotional flyer posted on the blog on wednesday! Needless to say we are trying to buy every great bull raised in the country this year and we strongly believe "Champ" fits into our growing 2011 bull line-up nicely! Look for "Champ" in Denver in January. We feel he will create quite a stir!

Rookie of the year

Our criteria for selecting Tiger Woods as rookie of the year was based on number of straws used in 2009 compared to the number of good calves we have seen in 2010. Thanks for the support!

Breaking News on Boardwalk

Updated New Owners:
Matt Lautner 515.450.2800
Lautner Farms 515.386.3284

I'd like to thank Joe Piffer for his involvement in Boardwalk, Joe has made the tough decision to sell his 1/4 semen interest to Lautner Farms. Joe was an excellent partner on the bull and we highly enjoyed working with him. Boardwalk is now valued at over $100,000 making him the first 6 digit club calf sire ever! As we stated yesterday nearly all semen is now being sold directly through the owners so if your spring and summer breeding plans involve Boardwalk contact me or Phil to insure that you recieve your semen in satifactory time! Once again thanks Joe and we look forward to doing business in the future!

Boardwalk: The most popular bull of 2010!!



Owners: Matt Lautner, Joe Piffer, Lautner Farms


We are very pleased and excited with the response to Boardwalk semen sales. Matt Lautner Cattle, Joe Piffer, and Lautner Farms would like to thank the many breeders who have included Boardwalk in their 2010 breeding plans. Nearly 100% of the semen is being sold exclusively by the owners and not through distributors, so if you are getting close to your breeding time we encourage you to contact an owner directly as to assure you recieve your semen on time! Matt Lautner Cattle distributes %75 of all semen collected on Boardwalk. For example if Boardwalk collects 100 units, Matt Lautner Cattle has 75 units to sell while Lautner Farms has 25 units. Other semen companies will likely not have any until later in June.

Once again thanks!!
