Welcome to our 27th Annual Producîon Sale. Its been
another good year to be in the caî©le business here at
Sunnyhill. Weâve been blessed to have good crops, a great
calf crop and, most important, great family and friends
Although market condiîons are not what they were at
their peak, the beef business is sîll proî®table for produc-
ers who work at being a low cost producer. Of course, that
means many diî«erent things to diî«erent producers.
We have always believed that selecîng for balanced traits
with aî©enîon to the details, such as disposiîon, udder
quality and longevity is the key to success in the cow calf
business. We feel that this yearâs sale oî«ering of bulls and
females meet that criteria.
Thanks for your interest, and, as always, visitors are always
welcome and call anyîme with quesîons or comments.
Sincerely,
Kent, Wendy and Emily
Comments from the Sale Manager
GENERATIONS OF GENETICS â THE 27TH ANNU–
AL SALE
Established in 1940, the Sunnyhill Angus herd is enjoying more than 75
years in the Angus business along with AHIR records that date to 1976.
This 27th Annual Angus Production Sale held at the farm near Fairview,
Illinois, will feature another outstanding group of bulls and females.
Spring yearlings, fall yearlings and older bulls will sell with females that
represent a cross section of the herd.
The pedigrees are stacked with leading sires for a combination of calv-
ing ease, performance, maternal strength and carcass merit. Highlights
include several of the very best heifers ever produced and offered by
Sunnyhill. I believe that this is an event that you will not want to miss.
Sires include Quaker Hill Rampage, Werner War Party, Mohnen Im-
pressive, Musgrave Aviator, Deer Valley All In, KCF Bennett
Southside, Basin Excitement, Connealy Black Granite, Fort Knox and
VDAR Cedar Wind, among others.
It is a privilege and pleasure to work with Kent, Wendy and Emily in
the presentation of this solid sale offering that is sure to please. Un-
doubtedly you will be impressed with what you find.
Please donât hesitate to call on us at the American Angus Hall of Fame
if we can be of assistance with your selections. We are here to serve.
