Test Period: Bulls went on test October 31, 2017 after a three week adjustment period and went off test on January 23, 2018. Genetic Disorders: All bulls were proven free of non-lethal genetic defects at time of sale. All bulls have been genomic tested for enhanced EPDs. Performance/Catalog Information:

Adj. 205-d and 365-d WT are in accordance to the bulls breed association.

Feed/Gain is the pounds of feed needed per pound of gain. This figure is adjusted according to the Beef Improvement Federation for differences in weights of the bulls.

Ratios are the bull’s trait measurement divided by the average trait measurement of all bulls within that breed.

Scrotal, Pelvic, and Frame measurements were adjusted according to the Beef Improvement Federation

Carcass data is actual measurement according to the CUP lab

Sale index =25% EPD ratio + 25% ADG ratio + 30% F/G ratio + 10% REA ratio + 10% IMF ratio. ABBREVIATIONS: Jr. – Junior or Sr. – Senior and then Ang – Angus; S x A – Simmental x Angus cross;

Sim – Simmental; Here – Hereford; RAng – Red Angus RFI: Residual Feed Intake is a measurement based on what we would have predicted the bull to have to eat to meet its energy requirements compared to his actual intake. An RFI of 0 means that the bull’s intake was as predicted (average). An RFI that is negative (-) means that the bull’s intake was less than predicted and the bull is more energy efficient. An RFI that is positive (+) means that the bull’s intake was greater than predicted and is not as energy efficient. All announcements and/or changes that need to be made after the printing of this catalog will take precedence over printed material in this catalog. All inquiries/concerns should be addressed to: Rebecca Atkinson @ 618-453-5000 or [email protected]

ATTENTION BUYERS: bulls can be left for up to 4 days after the sale but then a $15/day fee will be applied. All arrangements will need to be made with Rebecca Atkinson

The test station can assist you with coordinating bull delivery, if needed, please just let us know the night of the sale!

General EPDs: Calving Ease Direct (CED), is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. It predicts the average difference in ease with which a sire's calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers.

Birth Weight EPD (BW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire's ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Weaning Weight EPD (WW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire's ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Yearling Weight EPD (YW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire's ability to transmit yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Maternal Milk EPD (Milk), is a predictor of a sire's genetic merit for milk and mothering ability as expressed in his daughters compared to daughters of other sires. In other words, it is that part of a calf's weaning weight attributed to milk and mothering ability.

$W and $B, is an index value expressed in dollars per head for weaned calf value and beef value.

API and TI, is an index that evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd if you are keep replacements; while TI is an index that evaluates sires for use in a terminal sire breeding program.

HB and GM, is an index that evaluates the sire for use on Red Angus cows if you are retaining the heifers; while GM is an index used for feeders in the feed yard and on the rail.

Want a bull for your heifers? See table below for minimum CE to qualify as a heifer bull, then look for a HB in the catalog which will denote that the bull has been identified as acceptable for breeding heifers.

SILENT AUCTION: The Livestock Judging Team will be hosting a silent auction prior and during the sale. The winning bids will be announced after the sale.

HEIFER SALE: we are sorry to announce that no heifers were consigned this year, our sincere apologies!!
