PERFORMANCE TESTED BULL SALEFRIDAY, MARCH 12, 2021 // 6:00 PM // COLCHESTER, IL

W E S T E R N I L L I N O I S U N I V E R S I T Y

Breeders, Fellow Cattleman and Friends,

I invite your inspection and welcome your attendance to this years Western Illinois University‘s annual bull test sale . For 49 years, this test, has assisted breeders, produc-ers and cattlemen to identify and measure important performance traits, profit mak-ing indicators and value added genetic markers . Today, the demand for documented performance tested bulls and quality genetics is not only strong but important as ever .

For this years test, more emphasis was put on management and soundness, including foot quality; with a focus on getting the bulls in the right shape and condition to avoid melt down; without sacrificing performance. Also, 3-large exercise pens were built and all bulls on test had access to these . As a result, the bulls are more athletic and ready for service, and you can bid with confidence knowing that these bulls will go out and work .

Analyze your cow herd and your calf crop to identify those traits in which you need improvement . Use the valuable data provided by the WIU bull test, to assist in picking your next herd sire that possesses those traits that are needed to improve not only your calf crop, but your cow herd as well . Remember the bull you need may not be the same bull your neighbor needs to improve your bottom line . Choosing the right bull for your operation can make a $20 .00 to $30 .00 / CWT difference or more, when selling your calf crop, per year .

The Western Illinois Univesity bull test has built a tradition and a relationship between producers / breeders, alumni and students for almsot 5 decades; and in some cases 3 generations of a family .

As an Alumni of Western Illinois University, I’m proud to say that I have been asso-ciated with the WIU Bull test for the past 30 years . I have personally seen this sale grow, to become one of the well respected performance bull tests within the Midwest . Should you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to call Keela Trennepohl or my self . We look forward to seeing you at the sale .

Thank you in advance, for your consideration

Monte W . Lowderman Auctioneer, CAI . Cell: 309-255-0110Office: 309-833-5543Email: monte@lowderman .com

Dear Valued Customers,

I would like to thank you for your interest in the 49th Annual 2021 WIU Performance Test-ed Bull Sale . Performance tests provide wean-ing to yearling comparison performance data among different breeders and genetics . Bulls are rigorously tested prior to arrival being negative for PI-BVD, anaplasmosis, and free of all known genetic defects . Their dams are also tested Johnes negative . They have been vaccinated properly with a respiratory (4-way), clostridal (7-way +somnus), and Pasteurella as well as dewormed for internal and external parasites . During the test, they received multi-min, dewormer, vaccinated for vibro and lep-to, and tested brucellosis free . They have also all passed a breeding soundness exam and have been ultrasound scanned for carcass in-formation. They have received a high fiber ra-tion complete with chelated minerals, biotin, yeast, and rumensin to ensure gain has been optimized and that they will be ready to breed cows . Also, the bulls had access to outdoor runs to keep them more active during devel-opment. I challenge you to find another bull developer that gives you the certainty that the WIU bull test does . These breeders have brought you their best bulls and WIU has giv-en them the best care possible . We are con-tinuously striving to be the best at what we do by making improvements and progressing with the cattle industry . I look forward to see-ing you all on March 12th . Please call or email with any questions or if I can be of assistance when selecting your 2021 herd sires .

BULL TEST OPERATION AND DATA COLLECTED FACILITIES: The bulls had access to free choice hay and feed, covered shelter bedded with corn stalks, and 160’ long outdoor runs. TESTING PERIOD: The bulls began their 90-day test on November 4, 2020 after a 21-day adjust-ment period and came off of test on January 29, 2021 . RATION: Bulls were fed a complete pellet with a NEg of 0 .495 Mcal/lb and 12% CP . The ration consisted of 73% highly digestible fiber sources (wheat middlings, soyhulls, and cottonseed hulls), 22% corn, and a vitamin-mineral premix with rumensin . This ration adds in developing bulls by optimizing gain without compromising breeding ability and foot quality . ON/OFF TEST WEIGHTS: Weights are the av-erage of two consecutive weights taken at the beginning and end of the bull test .ADG: Average Daily Gain over the entire test period . The test group ratio is also provided .INDEXES: Calculated as 70% ADG + 15% REA + 15% IMF . Indexes were calculated within breed index .

FRAME SCORE: Based on hip height and age at hip height measurement using the BIF guide-lines . Will be available on sale day .SCROTAL CIRCUMFERENCE: Measured in centi-meters and adjusted using BIF guidelines . This trait is correlated to the bull’s semen producing ability as well as the fertility and age of puberty of his offspring . Will be available on sale day .12TH RIB FAT: Fat thickness in inches at the rump and between the 12th and 13th ribs mea-sured using real-time ultrasound and adjusted using breed association and BIF guidelines .RIBEYE AREA: Ribeye area in square inches between the 12th and 13th ribs measured using real-time ultrasound and adjusted using breed association and BIF guidelines .MARBLING: Marbling score estimated using real-time ultrasound and adjusted using breed association guidelines . Adjusted percent intra-muscular fat is converted to a potential quality grade using BIF guidelines . GENETIC DEFECTS: All bulls in the sale are free of known lethal genetic defects at the time of test registration . Bulls that are DDC will be allowed sell but will be noted as such .

WIU Performance Bull Test

EPD DEFINITIONSProduction, Maternal, and Carcass EPDS are listed for all breeds • Indices are breed specificEPDs as printed in the catalog should only be com-pared within breed as they are not representative of an across breed EPDPRODUCTION EPDS CE/CED – Calving Ease Direct Predicts the average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease .BW/Brth – Birth weight Expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires .WW – Weaning Weight Expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires .YW – Yearling Weight EPD Expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to trans-mit yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires .SC – Scrotal Circumference EPD Expressed in centimeters, is a predictor of the difference in transmitting ability for scrotal size compared to that of other sires .MATERNAL EPDS Milk – Maternal Milk A predictor of a sire’s genetic merit for milk and mothering ability as expressed in his daughters compared to daugh-ters of other sires . STAY – Stayability Percent of daughters remain-ing in the cowherd at 6 years of age .CARCASS EPDS Fat/BF – Fat Thickness Expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in external fat thick-ness at the 12th rib of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires .Marb – Marbling Expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires .RE/REA – Ribeye Area EPD Expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires .

INDICIES Simmental API – All Purpose Index Dollars per cow exposed under an all-purpose-sire scenario . Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd (heifers and mature cows) with the portion of their daughters required to maintain herd size retained and the remaining heifers and steers put on feed and sold grade and yield .TI – Terminal Index Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario . Evaluates sires for use on mature cows with all offspring put on feed and sold under grade and yield .Angus $M – Maternal Weaned Calf Value, an index, expressed in dollars per head, predicts profit-ability differences from conception to weaning with the underlying breeding objective assum-ing that individuals retain their own replacement females within herd and sell the rest of the cull female and all male progeny as feeder calves . The model assumes commercial producers will replace 25% of their breeding females in the first generation and 20% of their breeding females in each subsequent generation .$W – Weaned Calf Value expressed in dollars per head, to predict profitability differences in progeny due to genetics from birth to weaning . The underlying objective being producers will re-tain 20% of the female progeny as replacements and sell the rest of the cull females and their male counterparts as feeder calves .$B – Beef Value a terminal index, expressed in dollars per carcass, to predict profitability differences in progeny due to genetics for post-weaning and carcass traits . This terminal index assumes commercial producers wean all male and female progeny, retain ownership of these animals through the feedlot phase and market these animals on a carcass grid . $C – Combined Value an index, expressed in dollars per head, which includes all traits that make up both Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M) and Beef Value ($B) with the objective that commercial producers will replace 20% of their breeding females per year with replacement heifers retained within their own herd . The remaining cull heifer and steer progeny are then assumed to be sent to the feedlot where the producers retain ownership of those cattle and sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid .

If you are looking for a bull that will not only add pounds, but also style and a good look, put a big circle around TAG 112 . As an added bonus, I also think that he is heifer safe . He comes from the ever-popular Reba cow family with a notch of the great ACW Ironhide thrown in on the dams side . He is sired by FHEN Halftime also known for calving ease and one that is siring champions across the country. Buy this bull with confidence to add value to your herd.

Here is a well designed high growth bull (YW over 1400#) landing here as Lot 31 . This mating has been very successful the last two years producing large ribeye, long bodied cattle that really produce pounds of beef when they cross the scales. Don’t overlook this stout beef bull because he’ll work in all facets of the beef industry .

Really attractive patterned, solid red, 3/4 blood Simmental with a big top and hip . The maternal greatness bred into this guy should generate some valuable replacement females . His paternal grandam is the immortal 8543U, the most recognized cow in the Simmental breed . His 10 year old dam comes from our Rachel cow family who is best noted for their great structure, fertility, and udder quality. These maternal characteristics are solidified by his top 25% Milk epd . Whether you sell your cattle by the pound, or are looking to expand your herd, he fits the bill. Red cattle are in high demand, ride the red wave
