COMPLETE BUYER'S LIST

The National Guernsey Convention sale was held on June 27 in Greenville, Illinois. The fancy lineup was appreciated by the large crowd in attendance and averaged $4,586 on 43 live lots and choices while 61 embryos averged $516 each.

The top seller at $17,700 was the 2009 HM All-American Jr. 2-Year-Old Adams Creek Regal Dancer, EX-92. She was consigned by Brian and Kristi Dinderman of Illinois and purchased by Land of Living of Mechanicsburg, Ohio. The contender was Style Crest Dairy of Edmonton, Kentucky. Fresh since November 2010, she sold with 3 embryos by Levi. Her dam was a VG-85 Glacier with over 900F and she is sired by Friendship Regal. Dancer was bred by Steve and Debbie Nuttleman of Bangor, Wisconsin, and sold in the 2009 Upper Midwest Spring Sale in Wisconsin for $3150 as a bred heifer.

The second high seller at $12,000 was the 2010 All-American Spring Calf - Moziers Spider Angelique-ET. This daughter of Coulee Crest Luxury Spider-ET is out of a Tiller from a VG-85 granddam. The next dam, scored VG, is a full sister to the dam of Madison Reserve Grand Moziers Lux Anne of Lavon Farms, EX-92. The heifer herself looked stunning all week in the stall and entered the ring with the same grace that won her admirers throughout the show season in 2010. She was purchased by David, May and Jason Henisee of Mt. Joy, Pennsylvania, and consigned by Dr. John Mozier of Louisburg, Kansas.

Maplehurst Magicman Bathsheba dominated the showring in Canada for the last two years for her owners Maplehurst Farm of Lynden, Ontario. Her trip south was much anticipated and resulted in an $11,000 sale to Leroy Kipp of Hazel Green, Wisconsin. This huge Sr. 2-Year-Old for 2011 recently scored VG-88 in Canada and is from a VG-88 JB Dam with over 23,000M. The next dam was an EX-90 Royal Winter Fair Grand Champion with 27,000M, followed by an EX-90 Frank and the immortal EX-94 Laeschland TS Biddy cow. Several All-Americans and show winners from both sides of the border have come from thsi family over the past decade.
