Performance, Pedigree, Power Bull Sale H Saturday, February 6 H 12:00 NOON Lamoni, IA
Welcome Fellow Cattlemen and Cattlewomen!

Ruby Cattle Co.
DeAR FeLLOW CAttLemeN AND CAttLeWOmeN,
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the 6th Annual Performance, Pedigree, Power Bull Sale. Prices are at a profitable level and still historically high. With the dip in the cattle market, efficient cattle are paying dividends now more than ever.
We feel that this set of bulls is the best that we have offered for sale to date. Our cowherd is run like any commercial cowherd. With the moderate feed costs that we are faced with, we demand that our cows be efficient and are able to convert forage into pounds. Efficient, sensibly frame sized cattle have proved their economic value now more than ever.
We realize there are many bull sales as to which you can find a bull and we thank you for your consideration. We want to emphasize the fact that when you buy one of our bulls, you are not just buying a bull, but buying into a program that is committed to providing you the best product available
anywhere. Every year we have people come through that have been to other sales and tell us that our bulls are as good or better than anywhere they have been.
All of the bulls have been ultrasounded and that data is available. They have also been fertility tested and will be ready to go to work. We provided you with this information to be let our bulls be as transparent as possible. We want you to be informed as you can be about your new purchase. I have always said that if breeders are not providing you with this data, they are trying to hide something.Again this year, our bulls were developed on Purina’s Impact Grower. This was an easy decision for us due to all of the positive feedback from the past bull sales. We had many reports how impressed buyers were that their bulls didn’t melt after turnout and they stayed good on their feet and legs. Our bulls have also been BVD-PI tested negative.
Once again we will offer a handful of select Angus bulls. We think these bulls
complement our Simmentals very well as they are stout made, easy doing, efficient cattle that are sound and still have a good look to them. If you are looking for a stout made, traditionally built Angus bull, take a look at these.
There is no better time than now to invest in top genetics for your herd. Extra pounds at the livestock markets are returning big dividends, and we are confident we have the bulls to add those pounds. As you look through the offering, we believe we have several great maternal sires available as well. Looking forward, the daughters from these bulls will add to your bottom line for years to come. We also invite you to come see the bulls on the side of their dams in the summer, which is where we feel they are the most impressive, and you get to see the factory that stands behind them. Please feel free to call us with any questions regarding the sale offering.

Black Baldy Polled Purebred Bull H Tattoo: 4B16BD: 9-23-14 H Adj BW: 74 H Adj WW: 730
This baldy stud has been one of my favorites all year long. He has really never had a bad day and has really done everything right. He has a 109 birth ratio, a 110 weaning ratio, a 107 yearling ratio, a 102 marbling ratio, and a 105 REA ratio. He looks good on paper, but wait until you see him. This full faced baldy is an attractive made, stout made bull that is deep bodied and long sided. His dam has 2 calves with a 126 birth ratio. Buy with confidence here.

The Madden bull is really raising the bar here. He is siring stout made, high performance cattle that come easy and scan well. His first daughters in production have calved unassisted and have great udders. They are prolific mothers and are passing their quality to their offspring. I would highly recommend this sire group to the pickiest of cattlemen. Take good look at this sire group, the quality runs deep here.

These next 9 bulls are all Madden sons out of Ohlde bred Angus cows. The cows these bulls are out of are feminine, moderate framed, sound made cows with beautiful udders. When you mate them with the power and performance of Madden, you can’t go wrong. Buy one of these bulls, buy a handful, or buy them all, you can’t go wrong. I truly feel these bulls represent where the cattle industry is heading. They are the right size, they are functional, and they will be profitable.

Here are three full brothers out of our great 711T cow. She has produced some really good bulls in the past including one that was a high seller sired by Final Answer. These are great numbered bulls that should be calving ease and still grow very strong. I was lucky enough to get a heifer out of this mating and she is one of our best replacements. Take a good look here.

If you want muscle, if you want body depth, if you want pounds, than take a look here. Since the day this bull hit the ground, he has been full throttle. I absolutely love his Meyer 734 dam. We flushed her for the first time this spring and she made 22 good embryos. Here is a dual purpose bull that will raise heavy steer calves and great replacements.

This bull’s dam consistently puts bulls top bulls in the sale. She has had several high sellers as well and we have some very nice daughters out of her. If I were to pick a cow to have a 1000 copies of, this would be her. Her Madden son this year is her natural calf and also happens to be the high 205 day bull as well. The guess work is done here, buy with confidence.

If you asked me what cow we have purchased from Foundation Cattle is my favorite, I would tell you this bull’s mother. She is an absolutely beautiful cow with a great udder. This Madden bull is as stout as they come and is long as a freight train. He too is one that will add pounds to your steers and leave you with great replacements.

Black Polled Purebred Bull H Tattoo: 569CBD: 2-6-15 H Adj BW: 79 H Adj WW: 706
This bull is the result of a mating that has flat worked the last several years. We have retained two full sisters to this bull and one is the dam of the 540C standout bull in this sale. The other is a bred heifer. We sold another sister and she topped the female sale a couple years back. I debated keeping this bull to use for ourselves, but we are getting several Madden daughters around and I don’t think it will work. Our loss is your gain.

The Absolut cattle took our female sale by storm! He was strictly used in a clean up role and produced $20,000 and $17,000 heifer calves in his first calf crop. As nice as his heifers are, his bull calves may be better. They start small and grow hard. They are long bodied cattle that are very sound and attractive. They offer a different twist in the pedigree department as well.

This bull is a maternal brother to several popular bulls in past sales. His dam is always one of the first one to calve every fall and does a nice job raising a calf. This white faced bull is very complete and really hard to poke a hole in. He will make a calf crop better.

This is a big statement, but this is one of my favorite bulls that we have ever raised. I absolutely love this bull. He is cool looking, stout made, deep bodied and super sound. He is backed by an awesome Great Plains cow that had one of the really good Angus bulls in last year’s sale that went to Keith Reed from Nebraska. If you are hunting a really, really good bull, put this one on your list to find. I think he is the real deal.

We sampled Pays To Dream a couple years back and I will be the first to admit that they weren’t my favorite right out of the gate. They are later maturing cattle and if you have some patience, it will be rewarded. The last couple years, we have used him extremely hard. They develop into very practical cattle that are extremely sound made and very complete. We have kept several daughters and they are among the best of our young cows. Buy these bulls with confidence, you will be glad you did.

Here is a full brother in blood the $67,500 high selling heifer in our female sale this past fall. I truly believe that in terms of quality, he is very similar to his heifer counterpart. When you analyze him, he is extremely sound made, loose structured and cool looking. He is very soft in the center part of his body while combining that with more than enough base width and stoutness. Here is a bull that certainly could be shown and is good enough for the most discrimination breeder.

There are some cows, year after year, no matter what you breed them to, will bring in a real good one, and that can be said about the mother of this bull. A couple years back, she had a $9,000 bull that went to the Manske operation in Oklahoma and last year she had another bring $11,250 to good customer Max Boles of Grand River. This Super Stout sired bull is another high quality individual that is super stout and a great data set to go with him. He will add pounds.

Breeder: Nelson Family Farms H If you are looking for a bull to put on cows to add lots of pounds, take a look here. The Wide Tracks have been popular for their added muscle and performance and this one sure does that. We realize he was a bit bigger at birth, but being born unassisted, we are confident that when you put him on cows, you will get along fine and be rewarded with stouter, heavier calves at weaning.

I challenge you to find a purebred bull that is any longer and cleaner fronted than this one is. He is very long bodied and square made and sets down on a big foot with lots of bone and plenty of rib shape. Here is a bull that can add lots of value to a group of calves.

This baldy bull has always been one of my favorites. He is hardy as well, as he had a tougher go than most when he lost his mother this summer and finished the last few weeks on pasture by himself. I love his soundness, softness, and squareness, and the way he combines that with a killer look. A full brother in blood to this bull sold for $75,000 this past fall at the Black Label sale in Texas. The quality is here in this bull, and he comes in a baldy package. The Upper Class cattle have been popular and this is one of the best we have seen. Here is a bull that has loads of potential going forward.

Folks, if you are serious about the beef business, you really need to take a look at this bull. His sire, Incentive, has done a great job of siring predictable, profitable cattle and has left us with an incredible group of daughters. His dam is a Madden x Lucky Dice who is a twin sister to the top selling lot in our female sale a few years back. This bull has really done everything right to this point. He was born unassisted with an actual birth weight of 71# and weaned off with an actual weaning weight of 890#. He has a birth ration of 114 and a weaning ratio of 114 and is still cruising right along. Check out his EPD profile as well. He is
-1.1 on birth to 132 at the year. To top it off, he is very impressive phenotypically as well. Here is a bull that has the potential to leave his mark on the industry.

This fall bull is closely related to the two Style yearling bulls. His dam is a War Party out of the dam of the Style flushmates. He was born unassisted out of a first calf heifer. Like all the Styles we have had, he is attractive looking and soft made while combing that with stoutness and soundness.

Here is a stout made bull that offers calving ease in a high growth package. Take a look here.

We purchased a load of really nice, high performing Angus pairs this spring and these 6 bulls are the top cut from that group. The cows adjusted very well to the fescue and did a great job raising their calves and getting bred back in a short amount of time. These bulls are high EPD bulls that are still very functional in their makeup. They are stout made and sired by some of the hottest genetics in the Angus breed and the same can be said about their dams. Take a look at these bulls if your hunting some high quality Angus genetics.

explanation of how to utilize API and tI IndexesFirst, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping replacements use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference between bulls. (As described to the left, index units are in dollars per cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a $50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed. For more information, visit www.simmental.org.
