Polaris Introduces Two New Rangers
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.
More is better. There is power in
numbers. Two heads are better
than one. All of these old cliches
still ring true today, and Polaris
has captured the understanding
that with more choices comes
more opportunities. That is the
case with this year’s new Polaris
Ranger line-up.
With two new models, the Po
laris Ranger 2x4 and the Polaris
Ranger 4x4, the question isn’t
what can one do with a Polaris
Ranger, but what can’t one do
with a Polaris Ranger?
Polaris Rangers have been
used for every job imaginable,
from safely carrying hunting
equipment deep into the woods,
to helping farmers and ranchers
haul weed killer, insecticides
and feed for the herd. With the
invention of the Polaris Ranger
LUBBOCK, Texas State
grain sorghum association presi
dents took their concerns and
recommendations to Washing
ton, D.C., during a State Presi
dents’ Washington Fly-In on
April 3-S, coordinated by the
National Grain Sorghum Pro
ducers (NGSP).
Meetings with members of
Congress, agency officials and
key staff centered on sorghum
producers’ views regarding such
issues as the need for equaliza
Weilbach Chosen Renaissance
Specialist For Franklin Co.
ROARING SPRING (Blair
Co.) Renaissance Nutrition,
Inc. has appointed Jacques
Weilbach of Waynesboro, as a
nutritional consultant and dairy
specialist for Franklin County.
He brings to Renaissance a vari
ety of agricultural qualifica
tions, including extensive work
on both large and small dairy
farms in South Africa, and
degree work in the field of dairy
management and nutrition.
Weilbach has worked on several
farms in the U.S., helping to ad
vance their programs toward in
creased productivity and
improved profitability. Raised
on a dairy farm in South Africa,
he has a broad perspective of
dairy farming and agriculture,
which compliments his work on
farms. He understands the need
for utilizing available and up-to
date technology in rationing and
farm management skills. Weil
bach and his wife have two sons
and reside in Waynesboro. His
most recent employment was
with Mason Dixon Farms in
2x4 and 4x4, many impossibili
ties are now possible. Some
might use a Polaris Ranger to
shuttle clients to a remote lake
that has a difficult portage to
trek through, while others might
use it to carry out a trophy buck
from deep within the woods.
The possibilities are endless.
“There are just some things in
life not meant for man to do,’’
said Mitchell Johnson, Polaris
ATV General Manager. “That’s
why we’ve introduced the Po
laris Ranger family. With a go
anywhere, do anything attitude,
there’s not much you can’t do
with this machine.”
In addition to the Polaris
Ranger 6x6 and the new models
of the Polaris Ranger family, a
number of accessories have been
made which are designed for the
Polaris Rangers.
With such accessories as a 72-

search funding, emergency as
sistance and regulations. The
delegation also was present
during a House Committee on
Agriculture hearing devoted to
NGSP recommendations for the
2002 Farm Bill.
Producers making the trip
were Leo Bindel, NGSP presi
dent; Greg Shelor, Kansas Grain
Sorghum Producers Association
president; Kenny Tevis, Miss-
Pennsylvania.
In addition to extensive work
in nutritional and farm manage
ment consulting, Weilbach will
be overseeing the sales and dis
tribution of Renaissance prod
ucts into his area. This includes
products that are manufactured
by Renaissance, such as custom
and standard mineral/vitamin
premixes, calf milk replacers,
and products distributed by the
company that have been ap
proved for sale into the market
after extensive research and
testing.
Weilbach will also continue
ongoing training offered
through Renaissance in a vari
ety of up-to-date methods and
technical topics, which are de
signed to assist farmers in op
timizing ration programs and
making the most of homegrown
forages. Additionally, he will be
working extensively with
computer-based ration pro
grams, forage and water analy
sis, recommendation and sale of
corn, grass, and alfalfa seeds,
forage preservatives, and much
more.

moved with ease. Front brush
guards, radiator rock guards, an
assortment of all-terrain tires
and true four- and six-wheel

toughest of landscapes.
Whether one is a business

and practical tool a Polaris
Ranger can be for them.

million. Sales in the Pure Polaris
