Dear Friends and Cattle Producers,

Welcome to Texas for the Sixth Annual Texas Wagyu Association production sale. I am very proud to represent this outstanding offering of cattle from this very progressive group of breeders. Many of the consignors in this year’s sale have had cattle in this sale since the beginning in 2010, and we have grown the sale stronger in quality every year.

I would like to congratulate all of you in the cattle business today. We have all endured many challenges and challenging years, but we are now taking advantage of a profitable market not realized in decades. The future of the livestock industry projects to be solid for several years to come. Many drought stricken areas are recovering and looking to rebuild their inventories with top notch cattle that will be accepted favorably by the consumer. The Wagyu Breed provides a unique opportunity to fulfill these demands by producing a healthy source of protein with an unparalleled flavor experience. It is no surprise that the Wagyu breed is one of the fastest growing breeds of cattle in the United States,

I am confident that as you study this catalog you will find that we are offering cattle that will fit almost any pro-gram. The quality runs very high in both pedigree and phenotype. There are many opportunities here to expand your herd, or if you are new to the livestock industry, we have many matron cows to build a herd around.

Be sure to join us on Friday for an informative and fun day featuring Wagyu Beef. If you have any questions about the cattle, or if we can help you with anything, please do not hesitate to contact myself or any of the consignors listed in this catalog.

Sincerely,Robert Schach erRobert Schacher

Lots 15 and 16 are two full sisters sired by Red Galaxy the fine son of Kalanga Red Star and full brother to VBV ROA AKABASHI who sold at the 2012 TWA Sale for $44,000! If you have not seen this fantastic bull, here is a video of him: http://www.semenzorrillos.comlopenday/index.phpoption=com content&view=arti-cle&id=689&Itemid=852 or go to Semenzorrillos.com website click on “Otras Razas”, click “Akaushi Wagyu” then click “VBV ROA RED GALAXY”. It is very impressive! I bought his semen from Sexing Technologies; they were about out of straws the last time I called. Now that he is in Columbia it may be more difficult to obtain this quality bull’s genetics. Their black dam is a daughter of Itoshigefuji TF147 the largest foundation bull at 2640 lbs. David Blackmore in Australia is especially fond of TF 147’s daughters for their ability to raise a calf on grass. The dam is very wide and I estimate her weight at 1200 lbs. I like the way she has grown compared to the mostly Tajima lines I have had. I like T-bone steaks and if an animal goes over 30 months the government forces the butcher to discard the spine, so no T-bones. At least that is what the butchers in our area do. With these heifers you may get carcasses that can grow much more quickly for market, especially using a good growth sire. These wonderful heifers will be a great outcross to any fullblood operation especially if you want size, growth, and milk. Their Wagyu lines are: Akaushi 50, Tajima 17, Kedaka 2.5, Tottori 1 , Itozakura 18.5, Shimane 3.5, and Okayama 7.5. Odds of a red calf being born if bred to Akaushi line is 50. Both heifers are free of recessives by parentage and both have scored a wonderful AA on the SCDto have the better fat. All the progeny of these heifers will have at least one A marker of the good fat for tasty, buttery Oleic acid fat. 3. Their Wagyu lines are: Akaushi 50%, Tajima 17%, Kedaka 2.5%, Tottori 1% , Itozakura 18.5%, Shimane 3.5%, and Okayama 7.5%. Odds of a red calf being born if bred to Akaushi line is 50%. Lots 15 and 16 sell open.

B3FU, CHSFU, CL16FU, F11FUOffering two lots of four embryos each. The sire is a grandson of TWA Kajikari whose semen was unable to be exported from Australia. Darley Stud had this to say of TWA Kajikari: “When it comes to the siring ability of TWA Kajikari (IMP USA), his progeny have shown that they are worth their weight in gold. On researching Hikari (IMP lAP) sons at stud in Australia, it became clear that TWA Kajikari (IMP USA) delivered outstanding EBV’s in his progeny with the biggest advantage being that the EBV birth weight of his progeny is half that of the other stud sires sired by Hikari (IMP lAP). This makes TWA Kajikari (IMP USA) one of the most important sires within the Akaushi breed.” A001 is a nice thick bull who scored VA on the SCD test and his video is on Youtube here: https:llwww.youtube.comlwatch?v=l1ZrX-sI34Iw or you can do a Google search with the keywords: A001 youtube Dana. The dam is a recessive free daughter of Itoshigefuji TF 147 and scores AA on the SCD test. The embryos are stored at Genex in Strafford, MO and buyer is responsible for delivery.

On her dams side we have MICHIFUKU crossed on an own daughter of the high marbling bull, JVP FUKUSURU 068 thus giving a pedigree high in marbling ability. Which makes her an easy cow to to cross on bulls that offer size and growth as her pedigree has an abundance of marbling.

As “KOBE” was in our most recent flush program we are offering her purchaser their choice of three straws of semen from either the bull BAR R SABURO 53Y or BAR R NAKAGISHIRO 56T.

the SteAkS Are high donorsOver the last four years, Clear Creek Cattle and Zen 10 Cattle Co. have purchased a number of cattle from The Texas Steaks Are High Sale. Always leaving pleased and satisfied with their buys. This year we come to the sale in Salado offering eight Full Blood, Genetic Defect free by test cows of quality bloodlines. We acquired these animals in New York from the Empire State Farm’s dispersal to augment our flush program. They were shipped directly to our USDA approved collection facility in Ocala, Florida and as soon as possible we began flushing them. We have frozen over 240 embryos from these matrons and that’s not counting our transfers or the calves they have raised. This has been a rather prolific group of cows that we are bringing to this year’s Texas sale. Since we have just finished flushing these cows we have not had the time to breed them therefore, we are offering three straws of semen for each cow that we are selling with the buyers choice from BAR R SABURO 53Y or BAR R NAKAGISHIRO 56T.

TWA KAJIKARI HIKARIUMEHB BIG AL 502

KALANGA ALMIKO V2277 NAMIKO

B3FU, CHSFU, CL16FU, F11FUOffering an outstanding bull from very rare Australian genetics. A002 is a recessive free son of Red Emperor and grandson of the fabulous TWA Kajikari. TWA Kajikari’s semen could never be exported from Australia so his genetics are very rare. In fact, in the AWA herdbook there are only 4 grandsons of his in the United States and only 2 sired by Red Emperor. Darley Stud in Australia says of TWA Kajikari: “When it comes to the siring ability of TWA Kajikari (IMP USA), his progeny have shown that they are worth their weight in gold. On researching Hikari (IMP JAP) sons at stud in Australia, it became clear that TWA Kajikari (IMP USA) delivered outstanding EBV’s in his progeny with the biggest advantage being that the EBV birth weight of his progeny is half that of the other stud sires sired by Hikari (IMP

JAP). This makes TWA Kajikari (IMP USA) one of the most important sires within the Akaushi breed.” A002 also has Big Al on the maternal and paternal side as well as Hikari on the dam side. His maternal grandmother is Kalanga Almiko V2277; Darley Stud makes a remarkable statement about her: “When mated with the best Akaushi female in the country, Kalanga Almiko V2277 (IMP USA) and TWA Kajikari (IMP USA) result in progeny that produce EBV’s equal and better than their dam. This is a true indication that TWA Kajikari (IMP USA) is producing high quality progeny from a low birth weight point of view. “ A002 would vastly improve the gene pool of American, Canadian, Brazilian or Costa Rican Akaushi lines of Wagyu. A Youtube video of A002, from last September when he was 18 months old, is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOqfW30pIIw or you can do a Google search of “Best of A002 youtube” and that would get you to the video.

Offering a chance to own a Fullblood bull out of the very rare World K’s Nakagishi 5 genetics. Nakagishi 5 was in World K’s last importation and she has only 4 recorded offspring. The sire, Nakagishiro 56T, is the only bull from this cow. Jerry Reeves stated that he believed 56T to be his best looking bull! Of 56T’s 2013 bull calves Jerry offered half interest in a choice of 9 fullblood or 4 pureblood at the Denver 2015 sale. The result was that a half interest of a Nakagishiro son sold for $9000!! So logically these calves that are selling here with full interest must be worth at least $18,000 each. However, the difference is in the dam and the age of

So here is an opportunity to obtain the rare genetics of Nakagishi 5 with a fantastic dam with some good size, growth and milk from the Itoshigefuji genetics. One last important item is all bulls have been tested for SCD and all four bulls scored the best AA markers for the good fat. Every single one of their progeny will have at least one A marker and will have the good buttery Oleic acid fat. Any of these bulls would be ideal for both fullblood operation or a commercial operation. You will get choice of CLV Nakagito B06, B07, B08, or B09.
