2014 Allied Genetic Resources SimGenetics Semen Guide

--2--

Welcome to the 2014 addition of Allied Semen and Genetics Now in the 4th year of service we are proud of the lineup of valuable and unique genetics offered through our business. Were also proud that all the sires in the Allied catalog are offered by the independent ranchers and farmers who bred and or own them. This is possible, largely because of our continued partnership with ORIgen Inc. Their charge to promote Breeder to Breeder genetic opportunities helps us to promote independent success through cooperative effort. The breeder owners of the Allied bulls stand by the reputation of their genetics because of generations of selection for profit driving traits with consistency and a firm commitment to customer service. By combining their years of experience in the seedstock business with the reputation of ORIgen Inc. for semen quality and health protection, you can be confi-dent of both the value and quality of the semen distributed. Bulls in the directory sporting the Select Sires logo are offered dually by Select Sires and Allied through our cooperative Future Track program. Semen on those sires is available both from ORIgen as well as your Select Sires professional representative.In the Allied catalog you will find a solid balance of genetics with 22 Purebred and Simmental bulls along with 25 SimAngus bulls, 1 high value Angus bull as well as an exciting young Red Angus sire. Headlining them are breed leaders and improvers regardless of your specific needs or genetic goals. In addition we hope you will be impressed by the unique genetic packages and outcross opportunities available among the list of sires. There too are more than 30 additional options for profit enhancing bulls on our web site at www.alliedgeneticresourc-es.com as well as a few videos of the bulls in our line up.Third party verification of genetic value is crucial and should be on your requirement list when you purchase genetics. Properly collected data, from large, well designed contemporary groups, processed by a reputable third party using the most up to date technology available to the beef business is the only way to insure you are getting what you need and pay for. That is why we lean on the time tested and high integrity genetic evaluations performed by American Simmental and American Angus to characterize the value of our line-up. These folks truly have your best interest at heart and strive to provide the best road map available for genetic progress world-wide and not just black box, undocumented promises of value. Thank you for considering the sires offered by the owners of Allied Genetic Resources. We are proud of our bull line-up and hope you will find genetics here that can move your program forward and your profitability to new levels. If you would like to visit further about these sires or to order genetics, please call one of our representatives or breeder owners.

GIBBS 0689X CRIMSON TIDE//ASA#2602503

CRIMSON TIDE is fast gaining popularity as the big numbered growth, maternal, and carcass sire producing progeny with a striking look. Last fall he sired the high selling percentage Simmental bull in a very strong Gibbs Farms 2013 Sale in Alabama where sons and daughters were in high demand. Recently in the 3C Christensen & NLC Ranch Sale in South Dakota, 7 sons commanded a very strong $5,393 sire group average and in the Power Genetics McCook Sale, 6 sons from Hill View Farm in Kentucky averaged $6,125. Wide spread customer acceptance is the most important added value a sire can have. Out of a high producing, outcross pedigree cow family, CRIMSON TIDE has a high probability of producing females that can make a large positive economic impact on a breeding program. There is far more to CRIMSON TIDE than just his striking blaze-face look. He has the numbers and predictability to add value to the industry for many years.

If youve searched, you know that you can almost count the number of good, truly outcross bulls available on one hand. Game Plan is one of those rare options. Game Plan returns the power and muscling you expect from the long proven program at Heartland Cattle Co. Since R42X is one of the few bulls available with no Legacy in his pedigree and so provides some fresh mating options for purebred breeders, but his SimAngus sons are turning heads even more quickly. The leadoff group of bulls at T-Heart Ranch this year were half bloods sired by Game Plan. Deep sided, thick, sound structured and uniform they have a great commercial bull phenotype and were very popular with the folks in the seats. Game Plan is both homozygous black and homozygous polled and will bring muscle and power in one solid package. Use Game Plan to add performance, volume, muscle and new genetics.

Searching for a purebred go to bull for almost any situation? X4 is that all purpose, blue collar purebred sire with extra maternal value. Calving ease, growth, maternal calving ease, milk, marbling, yield gradeOlie X4 is finally a solid replacement for his deceased and famous sire. He currently sets in the top 2% of the breed for CE EPD, BW EPD and is one of the highest ranking purebred bulls available for dollars profit in the All Purpose Index EPD. The dam side of his pedigree is outcross and really good. His dam was the best bred heifer to sell in the dispersal of the famous Skillestead Ranch herd. That is why he has more depth, fleshing ability, base width and structural correctness than any other M229 son you will find. X4 is also a great choice for Angus females to add substance, muscling, bone along with ideal foot size and shape. If you want to see what a model foot is for a mature bull, X4 has it with near perfect set and flex, even toes and a great heel. X4 is also available from your Select Sires representative through the Future Track program.

The headline above tells the whole story on E-Z-3. They are smaller frame, massive muscle, big middle individuals with a lot of eye appeal, but most importantly, they have proven to be very marketable, especially in bull sales to commercial cattlemen. When you analyze his EPDs and $ Index Values, he is one of those sires that is just sort of average across the board, but his acceptance and demand in commercial bull sales has proven to be far from average. He does a great job of siring a cookie cutter look and it is a look that has been proven highly acceptable. E-Z-3 is a Purebred Simmental that comes from the same high producing cow that produced the SimAngus sires TNT DUAL FOCUS and TNT FINALE. Many breeders saw E-Z-3 last summer at Cow Camp Ranch where he was admired for his massive rib, thick muscle, and extremely sound structure. He was looking great and plans had been made for a mature photo when he was found dead one morning, totally unexplained, all alone in a bull lot. We have no clue what happened, but obviously there will never be any additional semen produced, so when the current inventory is depleted, he will no longer be available.

First Assents dam, Oval F Nicholette N433, is simply a great cow, period. This Joker daughter has generated one outstanding progeny after another for the Adcocks in Illinois and still has maintained the great looks she had when she was reserve female at Louisville years ago. First Assent is her Upgrade son and the top seller of the 2012 Flying H Genetics sale in Missouri. Upgrade does some great things on the sire side for performance and mass, but finding one with nearly ideal structure and large testicle size is difficult. 117Y excels in areas where Upgrade is not strong. Athletic, large testicled and attractive he still comes with the punch of high ranking Weaning, Yearling, Milk MWW and REA EPDs. He also is a breed leader for improving Tenderness genetics. His first calves selling this year had eye catching style, balance, outstanding depth of rib, structure and performance. Stop by Hayes Ranch just outside of Bozeman Montana to see him in person or just breed to him and make better Simmentals.

For those looking for a purebred Dikemans Sure Bet son that is physically awesome with extra thickness and substance, Sure Fire is it! More good news, he now too is the #1 Tenderness EPD Purebred bull in the ASA database! Sure Fire is an extremely sound 3 year old now and has maintained his muscling and natural width. The peoples choice and $19,000 top seller at the 2012 Cow Camp Ranch Spring Bull Sale, Sure Fire calves are clean on the profile, level stout with plenty of bone and big correct feet. He ranks in the top 2% for both REA EPD and top 5% for Marbling. Sure Fires dam has been a tremendously fertile donor with nearly 60 ET calves reported in the ASA database. He is homozygous black and polled.

MF STRAIGHTFORWARD Y9//ASA#2587760

Y9 is an old school, purebred power bull and a son of Nichols Manifest with more attractive and correct structure. The big surprise may be yet to come however. Reports from his first users say the calves are born much, much smaller than predicted! With the kind of performance promise he offers this could be big news moving Straight-forward. The growth performance of Manifest progeny is well documented. MF Straightforward adds to that legacy with more physical appeal for marketing. Rugged, thick and massive boned, Y9 just might be the purebred growth enhancing bull many have been searching for. He ranks in the top 2% for Weaning EPD and top 1% for YW EPD along with a top 1% figure in the Maternal Calving Ease category and top 2% for Maternal Weaning Weight. Not surprisingly he fits solidly in the top 4% of the breed for Terminal Index. He is tested homozygous black and polled. Check out the unique and high value maternal side of his pedigree as well.

Monte delivers what other go to Purebred growth bulls do, but he does it with more calving ease, consistency and marbling as well as siring some of the most gentile cattle you will find. Oh, and did I mention he is a great outcross choice too? His very large set of sons at the 2014 Bulls of the Big Sky sale were the choice of many of the best commercial producers in the seats and Lassles took home their pick for use at LRS. Bottom line is that Monte is just a dang good purebred bull. A homozygous black, homozygous polled son of GW Lucky Charm out of a massive LRS Revolution daughter, Monte has proven himself with deep, wide bodied sons and feminine, maternally bred daughters. A true balanced trait bull, you will see EPD values in the high end of percentile rank across the board including Weaning and Yearling Weight EPDs in the top 2% of the breed. Sound structure, volume, thickness, balance and great disposition are strengths of every single calf he sires. Hes the kind of purebred bull you can use on almost any cow.

WS BOX OFFICE A179//ASA#2731168

WS Box Office is one of the most exciting Hot Beef sons to date. He is an ET son out of a very moderate-framed black LBR Crockett Dam with an excellent production record. Box Office was Wilkinson Farms number one indexing bull in both marbling and ribeye in a very strong ET contemporary group which included a full brother, 2 half brothers and several Beef King sons, as well. Hes a very sound-moving, deep-quartered bull with an outcross pedigree backed by two very consistent cows in the Wilkinson herd- each with tremen-dous performance and carcass records. Use Box office to add growth, maternal weaning weight and dominant carcass traits for the next generation. He is DNA tested both homozygous black and polled.

Calving Ease with a whole lot more! Yellowstone is the new go-to purebred bull for balanced, multi-trait strength and valuable type improvement. Many breeders and commercial producers discovered Yellowstone as the obvious choice for their purebred heifers, but are very excited to be getting more. In fact the very first Yellowstone son to sell (CLRS Shock Force) fetched $36,000 at the Clear Spring sale in February and cre-ated quite a stir. Wonderful structure, great profile, balance and thickness accompany all those great EPD values that set him in the top 1% for API and just out of the top 1% for TI profit. Ranking in the top 2% of the breed for both CE and Birth Weight and still at +111 for his YW EPD, he exemplifies what a spread bull should bring to the table. Yel-lowstone was the high selling black bull from the Hook Farms offering in 2012 and his potential to change herds genetically for the better is nearly limitless. Need a Purebred bull to breed heifers or to improve marketability for higher birth weight cows or any cows, consider Yellowstone.

WS HOT BEEF X38//ASA#2548377

WS Hot Beef has proven to be THE most consistent bull used to increase and pass on marbling to his progeny. The last two years, the IMF index on his calves has been 117 among the Wilkinson Farms scanned progeny. Considering that the average IMF Index on those calves dams was 99, is pretty impressive. The maternal potential of his offspring is exciting too! His first daughters calved this spring. They make tremendous mothers which possess beautiful udders and also have calm dispositions. Red or black, the mating options are countless. The dam side of his pedigree contains great outcross options for making better females with performance- Hart Four Lane, Rains Black Bold-stock and all the way back to Black Mick. Hot Beefs dam has 7 calves reported with an average nursing ratio of 105 and average IMF ratio of 126.

PALEFACE has the biggest, best shaped foot that you will find on a Purebred Simmental bull anywhere and he is transmitting his excellent foot and leg soundness to his progeny with high accuracy. Packing tremendous muscle and rib shape into a smaller frame size, PALEFACE is producing the commercial cattlemans kind of sons . . . thick, wide, sound, and big scrotal. Coming from a high producing cow family, PALEFACE ranks in the top 3% of the breed for Milk EPD along with high MCE and his moderate, big capacity, sound structure makes him an excellent choice for producing high value replacement females. All things considered, PALEFACE is the obvious choice Purebred Simmental sire for making high value blaze-face F1 half-blood calves, whether you want to produce commercial bulls, replacement females, or feedlot cattle, he can make a positive economic impact. He is a dollars and sense sire.

PATHWAY brings a little different pedigree twist along with multiple cows in his pedigree with industry leading progeny records. He is literally cow family stacked four generations deep top and bottom. As an individual he was well above contemporary group average for every measured performance and ultrasound scan trait. He ranks in the top 1% of the breed for $API and Marbling EPD, top 5% for $TI, top 4% for CE EPD, and top 10% for BW EPD, plus extreme high maternal value. The industry has been buzzing about finding a new Purebred Simmental sire with a little different pedigree, so give PATHWAY a chance to lead you down the right trail to something new. If you will closely analyze all his individual data, his cow family production, and his very sound, attractive structure, you will see that PATHWAY is pointing you in the right direction for that new genetic venture. NEWS FLASH . . . first PATHWAY calves on the ground at McDonald Farms and Bill reports they were born small with good vigor, are growing fast, and appear to be really deep middle. There will be a large number of calves born this spring in the ASA Carcass Merit Program and several additional breeder herds.

THR NORTHERN 2109//ASA#2677699

Producers searching for a tremendous red bull with an outcross pedigree have been turning to Northern to provide value and unique red pedigree. Physically you will be impressed with his depth and rib mass in addition to the athleticism of this TNT Axis son. His heterozygous polled status is really the only thing keeping him from being more widely used, but if you are searching for high quality and outcross genetics for use on homozygous polled or Red Angus females, put Northern on your list to use this year. Northern too was raised at over 7500 feet of altitude and came through his PAP testing with flying colors. Use Northern to increase growth and volume. He currently ranks in the top 3% for YW EPD and the top 1% for improving Yield Grade.

X263 has always impressed us with his growth and carcass prowess, but it appears his long term legacy may be in the powerhouse production of his daughters. If you believe you are beginning to lose some ground for Milk and Maternal Weaning Weight in your herd, Beefmaker will bring you back to higher production on the maternal side. Ranking in the top 1% for Milk EPD and being a true breed leader for Maternal Weaning Weight EPD X263 stems from two renown maternal pedigrees and his outcross dam (JDJ Nova x ASR Cactus Red) has a track record to prove it. 7 calves weaned at average ratio 108, she has an average yearling ratio of 111 then wins on the carcass side with 105 and 112 respectively for the IMF and REA ratios on 5 bull calves. Whether you use X263 to add pounds of calf or keep high value daughters, youll be glad you did. X263 sons have topped the red side of the sale bulls for Bulls of the Big Sky the past 2 years.

HOOK`S YUKON 80Y//ASA#2612543

Yukon is solidifying his position as a logical successor to Beef King, his famous sire. A true balanced trait bull he currently ranks in top 25% of all Purebred Simmental bulls in 15 different EPD catagories! Yukon sires lots of muscle as well (Top 1% REA EPD), particularly for a bull used so often a choice for red purebred heifers. He also excels on the maternal side being one of the highest ranking bulls in the breed for Ma-ternal Calving Ease and Maternal Weaning Weight EPD. When you combine that with his top 10% spot for direct WW EPD, you can count on many years of increased feeder weights from both his calves and his daughters calves. Yukon calves come easy at birth, but find another gear for growth as they get older. You will be impressed with the thickness and substance he sires in all his progeny. His dam Hooks Mika too is among the most valuable red purebred females anywhere and is a model cow for production and phenotype. She is also the dam of the calving ease and maternal specialist Hooks Xpectation at Allied. Yukon too will greatly improve sheath quality and front ends.

MR ISHEE RED RENNOVATOR//ASA#2650666

Purebred red outcross seedstock bulls are very difficult to find and many dont deliver the kind of punch and muscle that so many herds count on for their customers. Rennovator is a total outcross to almost all other red pedigreed cattle in the Simmental breed. You have to go back four or five generations on either side of his pedigree to find the red pedigrees that form his foundation and he traces back to some of the best. His perfectly uddered Fortunate Son dam has already weaned 3 calves at 107 ratio and is a maternal sister to both Mr Ishee Catalyst (ABS) and Mr Ishee Red Density. Rennovator is absolutely a power bull and bred to be that way. As a yearling he dominated his contemporary group for width, muscling and substance of bone and foot. Expect him to sire added weaning and yearling weights along with improvement in both marbling and ribeye area genetics. Rennovator has no Shear Force, Beef Maker, Dream On or Rushmore in his pedigree.

GW RIGHT PATTERN 602Y//ASA#2605939

For those needing balanced, across the board genetic improvement and an outcross to a Nichols Legacy lines, look to Right Pattern as a proven option. blood sires have largely become the new outcross solutions to promoting diversity and Right Patterns pedigree brings unique pieces to that puzzle. His dam is by GW Lucky Man and out of an OCC Emblazon dam and she has been one of the really good ones for Gateway Simmental in Montana. With a 368 day calving interval over 5 calves and averaging 118 ratio for birth weight, 105 at weaning, then 114 for IMF and 103 REA she has done the job time after time and helps secure Right Patterns value as a maternal sire. Youll find Right Pattern ranking in the top 1% for API dollars too among bulls capable of siring purebred offspring. Expect him to add that extra, necessary rib and fleshing ability to purebred cows.

IR EXPEDITION W413//ASA#2543279

Balanced, across the board genetic value out of one of the best donors and Lucky One daughters in the breed. Expedition is out of a real cow family, not just a group of pretty ones! His dam has posted average weaning ratios of 112 and her Preferred Stock x Bold Future Dam has done one better at 118 average nursing ratio. Expedition himself posted whopping ratios of 140 at weaning, 124 at Yearling and 126 for IMF. On the sire side, Dual Focus offers the best of both Angus and Simmental genetics, making him one of the most highly used SimAngus bulls in history. Use Expedition to advance profitabil-ity by improving a host of traits. With additional proof this year he now boasts 164 and 88 dollar value index EPDs for API and TI respectively, he is a breed leader regardless of whether you compare him to the hybrid breed leaders or the pure-breds. Remember, blood sires are the ultimate outcross for purebred females to make new purebreds with unique utility and value. W413 is Homozygous Black and Polled. Calving Ease, Growth, Maternal Weaning Weight and top 1% Marbling all in one attractive package.

CCR GRAVITY 9064A//ASA#2725676

More and more serious breeders are considering the outcross and unique trait value of Simmental bulls to help reach their outcross goals and make improvement. Commercial producers to who want to take advantage of Simmental genetics for more muscle, growth and cutability, but still arent sure about using purebreds often find these bulls a terrific middle ground for their needs as well. Gravity really fits the needs of both. Among bulls capable of siring Purebred Simmental offspring, he offers top 1% value for the profit driven All Purpose Index because of his balanced leadership in an array of traits including Calving Ease, Birth Weight, Maternal Calving Ease, Milk, Maternal Weaning Weight, Docility, Ribeye and improved Tenderness. Even with all of that you can still expect above average growth and wonderful, sound structured phenotype. His dam, Apple, short for CCR MS Apple 9332W, is the key here. After weaning her first natural calf at nursing ratio 128 she went right into the Cow Camp donor program. One of the widest based and nicest uddered In Dew Time daughters you will ever see, her embryo progeny dominated the top end of the 2014 Cow Camp bull sale with Gravity and his full brother CCR Wide Range topping the offering both fetching more than $20,000. Gravitys half brother sired by CCR Catalyst then topped the SimAngus portion of the sale. You will find him, CCR Spartan 9124A in the Allied directory as well. All of these Apple sons created a sensation and will moving forward.

Pure power and performance with all the muscle and volume you could possibly ask for! Avenue was the Lot #1 and powerhouse W/C United son that led off the 2014 NLC/3C bull sale. With plenty of breeder friends bidding sale day he brought $31,000 to top the event and solidify his place among the elite seedstock bulls to sell this spring. Avenue offers top 1% rankings for all growth traits (WW, YW and CW EPDs) and does it all without adding unnecessary extra frame. Individually he ratioed 115 with 74 contemporaries at yearling and still posted a birth weight below herd average. MR NLC AVENUE shares the same maternal grand dam with the widely used Genex sire MR NLC UPGRADE. Use this unique blood United son to sire the next generation of purebred cattle with the extra volume, rib shape and center body dimension every breeder is looking for.

Hooks Shear Force for many years has set a very high bar with his ability to generate profit in nearly all aspects of the beef business. Fortified could very well be the homozygous black Shear Force son that furthers the legacy of his famous sire by adding additional growth genetics and an even more pleasing phenotype. Physically he is impressive with extra depth of chest floor and more flank than most Shear Force sons. Additionally he offers greater testicular size than many of his brothers and is nearly ideal for structure on the move. His beautiful Bismarck dam too looks to be a top young cow in the Double J Farms cow herd. From a genetic improvement perspective Fortified ranks above breed average for every single trait reported by the ASA and in the top 20% or better in 12 catagories. With that said it should be no surprise that he easily ranks in the top 5% for All Purpose Profitability.

GW LUCKY BOY 252U//ASA#2471391

Lucky Boy is the kind of bull that can make a long term positive impact on just about any herd. Whether you use him as a heifer bull to produce purebred offspring out of purebred heifers or as a long term investment to make tremendous percentage females, Lucky Boy is solid for value. We consider our high value group of Simmental bulls to be comparable to purebreds from a percentile rank standpoint, because they can be used on purebred cows to make purebred offspring. 252U ranks in the top 1% for Calving Ease, 15% for yearling growth and 5% for Marbling in addition to being a tenderness and disposition improver. For use on purebreds to make purebreds he ranks in the top 1% for the API and top 3% for TI dollar profit indexes. Lucky Boy is a homozygous black, homozygous polled, non-spotting son of the growth and carcass sire GW Lucky Man 644N that sires substantially less birth weight with the same powerful growth performance and carcass value. His progeny are deeper sided, easier fleshing and more structurally correct behind than those sired by his popular sire and are more conservative for mature size. Ratioing 128 and 116 respectively for weaning and yearling weights among the Gateway offering of 2009, he was the lot #1 and top selling bull in the GW sale. Lucky Boy does just about everything right including producing some of the nicest uddered, fleshiest young daughters you will find.

Axis has settled in as a great option to improve growth, maternal value and disposi-tion and is an outcross to most major pedigrees, particularly when used to make reds. When it was discovered that Axis was heterozygous black, interest in the young sire was initially slowed to some extent. Since that time he is proving to be a wonderful maternal sire that generates the kind of growth performance that used to be the norm among high percentage Simmental sires. Axis ranks in the top 1% of the breed for WW EPD, YW EPD, and REA EPD and in the top 10% for Maternal Weaning Weight, Marbling and TI EPDs making him one of the most well rounded growth bulls available that is eligible to sire purebred offspring. One more plus is that even with that explosive growth to a year, his daughters are maturing early and will make right sized, very gentle cows with wonderful udder structure.

GW REDESTINED 642X//ASA#2566964

Redestined returns dollars and profit to the ranch, period. He ranks in the top 10% of the breed for 8 different traits and all of them are the ones that help put dollars in your pocket. As a terminal sire he may not have an equal anywere. He currently ranks #2 among all SimGenetics bulls for value on the Terminal Index and is #1 among bulls that can sire purebred offspring. I hear all the time that you cant select for marbling without taking all of the ribeye out of cattle, Redestined proves that is dead wrong. He is in the top 10 proven sires for improving ribeye size and ranks 13th for Marbling EPD. Where are you going to find that combination in any other bull or breed. He is a homozygous polled, totally outcross blood. His pedigree reads as follows sired by GW Predestined 701T (GAR Predestined x GW Lucky Strike) and out of a TOSU Orlando x GW high Density 22E x Lchmn Lucky Buck. That makes him an outcross to not only the population of red SimGenetics, but to most black SimGenetics as well. Redestined is a tested carrier for Developmental Duplication (DD), but that does not diminish his ability to add substantial profit especially in a terminal situation.

GW PREMIER 734Y//ASA#2606048

Solid progeny data proof from multiple breeder herds as well as the ASA & Montana State University Heifer Calving Project has proven PREMIER as a very high calving ease SimAngus sire, he is a proven Heifer Bull. His realistic retail price and volume discount program offered through ORIgen makes him a very economical and obvious choice for use in large scale heifer breeding projects. Along with the top 1% rank in calving ease come high maternal, carcass value, and top 1% rank in the breed for ten-derness. The PREMIER calves have proven to be small at birth with excellent vigor & he offers an enormous amount of genetic added value that is available for a small price tag.

J BAR J NIGHTRIDE 225Z//ASA#2628568

A heifer bull that offers a lot more than calving ease and low birth weight, NIGHTRIDE brings huge added economic value to the table. In addition to his breed leading CE and BW EPDs, he offers breed leading carcass EPDs and $ Index Values in a pedigree a little different than most other heavily used SimAngus sires. NIGHTRIDE would be a great choice for large scale heifer breeding projects, so be sure to request information about the volume discount program offered through ORIgen. His first calves are already on the ground in several herds this spring and all comets are that he will be a true heifer bull. As an individual, NIGHTRIDE is a smaller frame size bull with tremendous muscle and rib shape. He travels very athletically on a big, sound structured hoof and literally has a stunning profile. His soft made leg structure, free flowing movement, and attrac-tive appearance make him a pleasure to view. NIGHTRIDE has been tested free of all known genetic defects.

CLRS ARIAT 876 A//ASA#2735693

Ariat was the lot #1 bull at the 2014 Clear Springs inaugural bull sale and along with the other high selling sons of the Hooks Xcellence 87X donor, had a lot of fans. Phenotypically, 876A is nearly untouchable for quality. As one of the first sons of WC United to sell he offered a powerhouse combination of depth, thickness and structure with an absolutely awesome profile and front end. One of the greatest values of SimAngus is the ability to combine the highest quality genetics from the two most proven databases and profit driven breeds available into a complete package of value. SAV Bismarck, SAV Final Answer and Mytty In Focus is a formidable combination of genetics on the Angus side with some of the best maternal genetics the Simmental breed has to offer with Shear Force, Pacesetter and Hummer on the Continental side. Ariat too is designed to promote growth ranking solidly in the top 5% of all SimAngus bulls for weaning and yearling weight genetics and should deliver moderation of frame even with the extra pay-weight he promises to generate.

TJ MAKERS MARK 215Y//ASA#2631021

Before we get into the fact that Makers Mark was the top selling and physically most imposing and striking bull of the Triangle J 2012 bull sale, lets talk about his potential to make great cows. His dam is TJ Jezebel 53J. If that name doesnt ring a bell, look her record up in the ASA database (2054358). She has 10 natural calf records with average ratios as follows, Birth Weight 102, Weaning Weight 110 and Yearling Weight 111. To go with that she currently has 46 embryo calves reported and is a full sister to the great TJ 57J the Gambler. Combining her prowess with SAV Bismarck will just add to the maternal potential as his daughters are respected across the country. Genetically, Makers Mark ranks in the top 10% or higher for Yearling, Maternal Weaning Weight, Milk, REA, API and TI. So Makers Mark just might be your best choice to make serious progress for maternal and end product traits while breeding cattle you like to look at too. 215Y is homozygous black and homozygous polled.

MR NLC ENTREPRENEUR 1227//ASA#2656649

1227 is an up and coming all around sire and a great way to use the consistent mus-cling, rib and performance of TNT Tanker without the extra birth weight and below zero Marbling EPD. In fact, Entrepreneur adds value in both these areas with a type and attractive look everyone will appreciate and pay for. You will not find a bull with any more ideal structure and soundness than Entrepreneur that has his muscling, style and balance. If he will mass produce his own phenotype in his progeny, they will be incred-ibly easy to market. 1227 currently ranks in the top 15% for Marbling EPD, 10% for REA EPD and is in the top quarter of the breed for reduced birth weight genetics. His first large set of calves are being born now and should bring his BW EPD even lower.

MCDF DUAL COMBO 262Z//ASA#2675278

Dual Combo delivers a wonderful array of profit traits and a somewhat unique pedigree being sired by Bills MF Dual Gamber bull and out of a high producing young GLS Combination daughter (first 2 calves average WW ratio 111, YW ratio 112 and IMF ratio120). Dual Combo is the definition of a spread bull too with a Calving Ease EPD in the top 10% of all SimAngus bulls followed up by a Yearling Weight EPD in the top 2% of all choices to improve growth. That is just how you would write it up, but very few bulls deliver that kind of curve bending package. Use 262Z to bolster end product value for both Marbling and Ribeye and take advantage of the profit he offers the industry ranking in the top 3% for All Purpose dollar value index and top 1% for Terminal dollars. Dual Combo is homozygous black and homozygous polled.

GCCR EASY ANSWER Y108//ASA#2622776

Easy Answer is just thatthe answer to a lot of genetic challenges. He is truly among a rare group of sires that offers genetic improvement for almost every economi-cally important trait and is near the top of the list for many of them. How do we make cattle that are born small and easy, but grow fast and offer powerhouse carcass value for marbling and ribeye both? Select for it and use Easy Answer. Among the highest echelon of all SimAngus bulls for his API and TI dollar value indexes, he is bred to generate profits no matter what angle you look at him from. Maternally he combines Dikemans Sure Bet and SAV Final Answer almost guaranteeing long lived, productive daughters as well. Few bulls can match his spread rankings for Birth to Yearling EPD. Easy Answer is homozygous black and polled.

For those who think show cattle cant have big numbers and performance cattle cant have the look, then you had better think again . . . its time to change your play & make the call . . . OMAHA!!! Massive power, traveling on a huge, sound, perfectly shaped hoof best describes this powerhouse sire who racked up big time individual performance and ultrasound scan ratios of BW:100, WW:132, YW:126, IMF:122, and REA:111. He ranks in the top 1% of the breed for WW, YW, MWW, and CW EPDs along with a top 1% ranking for $TI. Even with these huge growth and terminal values, he still maintains breed average EPDs for CE and BW along with top 10% rankings for Milk EPD and $API as well as top 3% rank in the breed for Marbling EPD. Every way you look at him, he is a giant numbered bull that is very sound structured with a striking look. If you are ready to change your play, then make the call . . . OMAHA!!! As you admire the performance and carcass power of this young sire, dont overlook his maternal strength. He comes from the same high producing dam that produced the ABS powerhouse sire, Sharper Image, a sire that has proven to sire the winners.

LRS RANGE BOSS 901Z//ASA#2696837

If you are looking to moderate frame and add keeping quality without sacrificing pounds at weaning, Range Boss offers answers. The photo shows his phenotype well, because Range Boss is a moderate framed, tank of a bull. He definitely is a spread bull currently ranking in the top 15% of the breed for both Calving Ease and Weaning Weight with breed improving values for almost all traits reported across the board. Designed and purchased to make easy keeping, range ready females that can survive in any situation, he is made like few other SimAngus bulls available. Since these daugh-ters are going to have to be very sound for tough conditions, his feet and soundness are nearly ideal. A favorite among sale goers at the 2013 Lassle Simmental sale he is sired by the outcross Koch LC Monte and is homozygous black and homozygous polled. Use Range Boss to make wider based, bigger ribbed Sim-influenced cattle that wont eat you out of house and home just to stay in the herd.

TNT FINALE W241//ASA#2524763

From Alabama, to Illinois, to Iowa, to Montana, to California, FINALE sons have stamped their mark in bull sales and been well received by commercial bull customers. He is a no miss sire for added muscle, massive rib capacity, and a huge, sound structured foot. He is truly a cowmans bull. Sired by one of the top female producing sires in the Angus breed and out of the Simmental icon, TNT Miss R77, he is a maternal brother to TNT Dual Focus and TNT E-Z-3. There is no wonder why he is a sire of great daughters as well as sons. Due to an injury during breeding season last year, the productive life of FINALE came to an end, leaving a very limited supply of semen. The owners have retained enough semen for their personal use and the rest will be sold until depleted. There will be no more produced, so get it while it last.

Xavier is a proven heifer bull with big time across the board value to offer both the breed and the beef industry. The first Xavier sons were offered at Hook Farms this spring and were very popular because of their attractive, sound structured phenotype and tremen-dous value on paper. He currently ranks in the top 10% of SimAngus hybrids in 12 EPD categories and is in the top 30% for all of the rest of them, everything. If you run a search for bulls better than -2 pounds of BW EPD with YW EPD at over +130 Xavier is the only bull you will find. Talk about do it all balance! Xavier is by the calving ease specialist MCC Daybreak and is out of the unquestioned queen of bull producers at Toms, Hooks Patti 3P. She currently has sons being used by breeders in 10 states. The distinguished list includes Hooks Admiral 33A, Hooks Zest 36Z, Hooks Cornerstone 5U and Hooks Final Analysis 7U and most of the top sellers for Tom in his 2014 bull sale out of United and Protg.

CCR SPARTAN 9124A//ASA#2725682

Too often these days a bull with a pretty picture is no more than that. Spartans ideal phenotype is difficult to capture even on film. No need for enhancement here, his rib carries down soft and wide front to rear, his top is square and level, his rump and hind leg set is superb and in terms of balance and front end quality you just have a hard time wanting him to be any better. He has no holes genetically either. Genotypically, Spartan ranks in the top 15% of all SimAngus for the 10 most crucial value EPD categories including those predicting calving ease, growth performance, maternal and terminal value traits. Just like the CCR Gravity and CCR Wide Load bulls he was a feature of the 2014 Cow Camp bull sale and just like them he is out of Apple (CCR MS Apple 9332W). She is a great cow and Spartan looks to be a great SimAngus bull. His sire CCR Catalyst was as good a Final Answer son as you will ever find with a remarkable performance proof. Catalyst has been found to be a DD carrier and will no longer find significant use. Take advantage of Spartans tested DDFree status to use the value genetics of Catalyst moving forward.

HOOKS ADMIRAL 33A//ASA#2716194

Earning his name . . . ADMIRAL was the high ranking, standout selection from the 2014 Hook Farms Sale. Tom Hooks sale catalog comment says it all, ADMIRALs gentle disposition, soft structure, and sound hoof quality complement his premier genetic balance. Soggy and sound best describes this Protg sired standout. ADMIRAL is a huge middle, wide based, powerhouse with an enviable BW to YW EPD spread of -1.2 to +139 and comes from the highly proven, top value cow in the Hook Farms herd, Patti 3P. His overall EPD and $ Index profile is very interesting as he ranks in the top 1% of the breed for YW, REA, and $TI while maintaining a top 20% rank for BW and top 10% for Marbling & $API. ADMIRAL does a great job of combining extremes and balance all in one genetic package.

JC MR NATIONAL 610Y//ASA#2616993

Those who say that API value and great phenotype dont go together havent used or laid their eyes on Mr National yet. The number 4 ranking API bull among all SimAngus (+197) and the #2 proven SimAngus bull for Direct Calving Ease, his calves are born easily but catch up fast. Depth of body, wonderful structure and great disposition are just a few of the obvious first traits youll notice with National calves. He obviously has been used very successfully on heifers, but is not a typical heifer bull when you evaluate his frame size and performance. Mr. National has been tested DD free and offers phenomenal end product value in addition to his spread and potential on the maternal side ranking easily in the top 1% for Marbling EPD and TI in addition to his spectacular All Purpose Dollar Value Index. His dam too has earned her way into the donor pen these days because of her amazing production and powerhouse look. She currently has 6 natural calves averaging 103 at weaning and 105 at a year and her 2 bull calves put up an average ratio of 138 for IMF. A direct daughter of US Premium Beef, she is as deep, stout and broody as you can make one. National will absolutely change your mind about having it all.

S D S ALUMNI 115X//ASA#2548149

Of all the bulls in the Gibbs Farms herd sire lineup, ALUMNI has had the busiest schedule of all over the past 3 years. Between collection and 3 natural breeding groups annually, he literally has never had a break and given time to rest and mature the way a bull should, but he has never failed to get his job done well. At this point, all that matters is how good his progeny has proven to be. Through the ASA Carcass Merit Program and retained ownership carcass data from Gibbs Farms and Cow Camp Ranch, ALUMNI ranks in the top 1% of the breed for Marbling, Ribeye, and Tenderness along with top 10% for Yield Grade. He is a carcass value giant that also offers high direct and maternal calving ease, top 1% Milk EPD, excellent docility, and can get all that done in a smaller frame size package. The oldest daughters sired by ALUMNI went into production this spring and they look just like his great South Dakota State University dam. They are smaller frame, big middle, attractive fronted females with picture perfect udder and teats. Considering all EPDs and $ Indexs, the moderated frame size, added muscle, enormous middle, extreme maternal and carcass value along with the look he stamps, ALUMNI may very well be the most complete and balanced economic trait SimAngus sire in the industry today.
