THE WINDY WILLOWS PROGRAM Useful information: It is our goal to provide you with information that will help you make accurate bull selection decisions, whatever the traits you are interested in. Calving Ease: Growth: Maternal: Carcass: Fertility:

birth wts, EPDs and CE & CE Elite designations adjusted wts, EPDs and current wts. Milk EPDs ultrasound ribeye area, fat thickness and marbling scrotal circumferences and breeding soundness exam Current weights and scrotal circumferences will be available sale day or call us! We'd be happy to show you the dams of the bulls selling; just ask us!

Calving Ease and Birth Weight: Our breeding program has emphasized reasonable birth weights and the average birth weight of our calves has decreased markedly in recent years. Our cows and heifers calve without problems. In 2012 we calved 40 heifers and assisted only 1 and at time of this writing we have not assisted a heifer in 2013. Bull Development: All of our bulls are grown on grass and mother's milk prior to weaning. They receive no creep feed! After weaning the bulls from both herds are fed together in a large pen and developed on a high protein cereal silage and alfalfa hay ration with mineral/vitamin fortified 14% pellets and rolled barley. This enables the bulls to express their growth potential without excessive fattening. Customer Service: We would be pleased to assist customers with their bull selections, just ask us! Remember too, we offer free delivery within 200 miles or save $50 if you pick up your bull on sale day. We stand behind our bulls 100%. We have confidence in our bulls, but if you have a problem, call us, we want to help! Sale Eligibility: Only the best bulls sell. Each bull must meet our expectations before he can meet yours guaranteed! Affordable: Real good bulls at prices you can live with; you get exceptional value from our bulls!

Welcome to the 10th annual Windy Willows & Guest

Bull & Female Sale

W

elcome to Windy Willow & Guests 2013 Bull Sale. It is a real pleasure to work with folks whose product works as hard for their new owners as it does at Windy Willows. Features this year are another set of Chisum sons, bulls with added volume, hair and easy fleshing ability. Sitz Upward again has put his stamp on his sons with style, carcass volume and the fact that Upward remains as one of the most popular leading A.I. sires of choice. The high selling Everblack Kodiak has left a correct, heavy haired, impressive set of sons – the sire was unfortunately lost so these will be in short supply. Windy Willows practices a no nonsense program – the resulting information is real with no compromise. Hence cattle who produce in a manner with no surprises. Rest assure that these folks have an exceptional level of breeder integrity and an unmatched warranty backing their product. They will work with you! Carcass evaluation is used at Windy Willows, both for themselves and for you, the valued customers. It simply is another tool for your selection process. Come and enjoy the hospitality, cattle fellowship and help evaluate the cattle offering of both Charolais bulls and Angus bulls and females. Take advantage of the never ending search for new genetics that ranches appreciate. If you are unable to attend, then please do not hesitate to call anyone – we can help you with your needs in mind. Rob Holowaychuk, OBI

Carcass Data In order to use body composition EPD’s or ultrasound data to its full potential, a breeder must have an understanding of the ultrasound terminology. Several of the ultrasound measurements are comparable to the familiar carcass measurements. The data is simply collected on yearling bulls and heifers instead of market ready steers. Take a step back from looking at the numbers and become comfortable with the terminology. ULTRASOUND CARCASS MEASUREMENTS Rib Fat/Backfat: An external fat measurement taken between the 12th and13th Reported in inches. Rib fat is the main trait that affects percent lean meat yield ie; A1, A2, A3, & A4. Percent lean meat yield is the calculation that estimates the percent of lean muscle on the carcass. For example, a lean meat yield of 60% on a 1000lb carcass would have 600lbs of lean muscle and 400lbs of bone and fat. Ribeye Area (REA): An area measurement of the loin or ribeye muscle. Reported in square inches. While an increase in backfat will lower the percent lean meat yield an increase in REA will raise the percent lean meat yield. Rump Fat: An external fat measurement taken from an image collected between the hooks and the pins of the animal. Reported in inches. The rump fat measurement, coupled with the rib fat measurement will increase the accuracy of percent lean meat yield. Intramuscular Fat (%IMF)/ Marbling: This measurement determines the amount of fat within the muscle. Reported in “%”, it is used to determine the quality grade of the carcass. As %IMF increases so does juiciness, flavor, and tenderness, all factors affecting eating quality.

REA & IMF (Marbling)

Rib Fat

Rump Fat

USING ULTRASOUND DATA TO SELECT BULLS 1. Fat levels, including marbling, will normally be higher in steers than in similarly fed bulls due to the lack of testosterone. 2. Carcass traits such as ribeye area (REA) and marbling (%IMF) are highly heritable, therefore using sires with high ultrasound scores for these traits will significantly improve carcass quality. 3. Significant premiums are being paid by packers for carcasses that meet high quality grade and yield grade standards. There are extra profits to be made! 4. Less backfat is not always better! Extremely low backfat bulls may sire steers with high yield grades, but they may be slow to finish. Their heifer counterparts may reach puberty later and have more difficulty milking, rebreeding and maintaining a short calving interval. On the other hand, overfat bulls may have reduced fertility. 5. Evaluate your cowherd, decide what kind of progeny you wish to produce and choose bulls with the ultrasound data to match your needs. 2


WHAT THE NUMBERS MEAN! Windy Willows Farms have been performance testing our herd on the Canadian Angus Performance Program (CAP) since its inception.. We use the information within our own herd and we pride ourselves in providing useful performance information to you so that you can use it to help select the bull or bulls that best suit your operation. We do understand, however, that all these numbers can be mind boggling. This page will try to make some sense of the performance information that is provided in this catalog so that you may use it more effectively.

YW EPD – the difference in yearling weight you would expect between a bull’s calves and calves from a bull with a YW EPD of 0. Bulls with higher YW EPDs will sire heavier calves at yearling age. MILK EPD – the difference in weaning weight attributable to milking ability you would expect from a bull’s daughters’ progeny and progeny of daughters of a bull with a MILK EPD of 0. Bulls with higher MILK EPDs will sire daughters that will have heavier calves at weaning due to their milking ability. Average EPD - It is helpful to know the average EPD for all calves born in 2012. BW WW YW MILK 2012 Black average +2.8 +42 +76 +18 2012 Red average -0.2 +48 +71 +17

GROWTH TRAITS Birth Weight (BW) – the actual weight of the calf taken within 24 hours of birth, not a guess and not a taped estimate. Calving Ease (CE) – describes the type of birth. Codes used are: U – unassisted, E – easy pull, H – hard pull, M – malpresentation and S – surgical. Age of Dam (AOD) – age of dam at time of calving. Two year olds, 3 year olds and very old cows tend to have lighter calves at birth. Weaning Weight (WW) or (Adjusted 205 Day Wt) - the weight taken at weaning and adjusted to 205 days of age, also adjusted for the age of dam. Weaning Index or Adjusted 205 Day Index – a means of comparing an individual bull’s weaning weight to the average weaning weight of his group. Weaning weights and indexes are only comparable within the herd of origin, not between herds. Yearling Weight (YW) – the weight taken at end of test and adjusted to 365 days of age. Average Daily Gain (ADG) – the average daily gain while on 112 day gain test. The gain test begins after a 28 day adjustment period to allow bulls from the 4 different herds to adapt to a common environment at the feedlot. ADG Index – a means of comparing an individual bull’s ADG to the average of his group. It is expressed as a percentage of the group ADG. Weight Per Day of Age (WPDA) – the weight of a bull at end of test divided by his age in days. WPDA Index - a means of relating an individual bull’s WPDA to the average of his group. It is expressed as a percentage of the group WPDA. What is an EPD? (Expected Progeny Difference) – An EPD is a measure of differences in a trait that will be expected from progeny of different sires. EPDs are expressed in pounds plus (+) or minus (-) a zero standard. Why are EPDs valuable as a selection tool? – EPDs can be used to compare bulls in different herds within the same breed. They are based on an individual’s performance as well as that of his relatives and progeny. They factor out the management and environmental differences that may exist between herds. Accuracy (Acc) – the more information that is used to calculate an EPD, the more reliable it is. Accuracies are expressed as a number between 0 and 1. The closer the accuracy is to 1, the greater the probability that the EPD will not change with the addition of more information. BW EPD - the difference in birth weight you would expect between a bull’s calves and calves from a bull with a BW EPD of 0. It is a much more accurate indication of expected progeny birth weight than the bull’s own BW. All the Black bulls designated as Calving Ease in this catalog have BW EPDs of +3.0 or less. Black bulls designated as Calving Ease Elite have BW EPDs below +1.0. WW EPD – the difference in weaning weight you would expect between a bull’s calves and calves from a bull with a WW EPD of 0. Bulls with higher WW EPDs will sire heavier calves at weaning.

It is important to note that Black and Red EPDs cannot be directly compared. Percentile – a ranking of a bull within the population by percentage. It is helpful to know where a bull ranks in the population for a particular trait.

BULL WARRANTY We guarantee to provide you with a sound, fertile bull capable of servicing a reasonable number of cows. In the event that your bull is a non-satisfactory breeder the seller will not, under any circumstances, be responsible for more than the original selling price of any bull or female sold in the sale. The consignors will not provide replacement or credit for physical injury or mismanagement. Therefore we stress the importance of insurance on your bull. An insurance agent will be available on sale day. WINDY WILLOWS RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DRAW SEMEN FOR IN-HERD USE ON ANY BULL IN THE SALE, AT THE BUYER’S CONVENIENCE AND OUR EXPENSE.

Calving Ease & Calving Ease Elite Bulls In response to our customers needs we have designated a group of bulls that we would recommend for heifers based primarily on their Birth Weight EPD. The Black bulls that have been designated Calving Ease (CE) have a BW EPD of +1.0 to +2.8 for this important trait. (Red bulls are 0 to +1.2.) The Black bulls designated as Calving Ease Elite (CEE) have a BW EPD of below +1.0 and are in the top 10% of the breed for low birth weight. (Red bulls are below 0.) Most of these bulls have been bred for calving ease and represent at least two generations of calving ease sires. These designations are guidelines and only you can decide which bulls are most appropriate for your situation. 3

The Canadian Elite Cow Report The Canadian Elite Cow Report is an effort to identify superior cows in the Angus breed. Emphasis is placed on early puberty, breeding and early calving, followed by regularity of calving and above-average performance of the offspring. The Elite Cow Report requires a cow to have a minimum of four calves to determine her regularity of calving and ability to consistently produce calves with a superior weaning weight year after year. We are proud of the number of Elite Cows we have in the Windy Willows herd. A total of 58 of our cows have been designated as Elite Cows and 18 of them are currently in our herd. We are offering 4 bulls and 2 heifers in this sale who are direct offspring of Elite Dams. Maternal ability has been a focus of our program for over 30 years. If you are interested in improving the maternal ability of your cowherd there is no better way than to use a son of a superior cow. We are offering 8 bulls in this sale who are direct sons of Elite dams. Seize the opportunity!

CAN'T MAKE IT TO THE SALE? If you just can’t make it to the sale because of weather, calving, prior commitments or whatever, please call us! Collin or any of the sale staff would be happy to discuss the offering with you. We encourage you to plan a trip to the farm to see the bulls and their dams, prior to the sale. We would welcome the opportunity to visit with you about which bulls will meet your needs. On sale day we can make arrangements to have you bid by phone or we would be pleased to personally represent you. We guarantee satisfaction! In the event that the bull purchased for you does not meet your expectations upon delivery, you do not own him! 4

Welcome to the 10th Annual Git ‘R Done Bull and Female Sale

W

e would like to welcome all our friends, neighbours and customers, old and new, to our 10th Anniversary Sale! It seems like yesterday that we held our first sale here at the farm. We are very grateful to everyone who has helped us make this annual event so successful, especially all of our customers. Without your support this sale would not be possible. We are very pleased with the bulls on offer this year. Once again we have an outstanding set of Upward sons and a new and exciting sire group by Chisum. We are also excited about the Kodiak 1W sons on offer, they look awesome! The red bulls include sons of Red U-2 Dynamo 7021T, Red Flying K Wizard 7W and the performance and carcass sire, Red WWF Ambush 197S. The bulls were weaned in early October without creep. Their ration this year was lower in energy than in past years which accounts for the lower yearling weights and average daily gain. The average daily gain up to Feb 19 was just under 3 lbs /day. The bulls look great, probably a little more athletic than in the past and we are confident that they will be fit and ready to breed when you need them. We aim to provide our customers with the best service available and we stand behind our bulls 100%. If you should have a problem, we want to be the first to know so that we can deal with it. Once again we are offering a selection of purebred yearling heifers from the heart of our herd, which include daughters of two of our Elite Dams. New this year will be approximately 25 commercial Black Angus heifers with calves at side. Be sure to check them out! Our friends and neighbours, Garner & Lori Deobald and family from Cedarlea Farms will be joining us with another set of strong yearling Charolais bulls as well as their feature herd sire Gridmaker. They share our commitment to the beef industry and to the success of their customers and we look forward to working with them again.

Michelle, Collin & Hillary

Please plan to join us on Tuesday, April 2. See you then!

His calves at WWF, both bulls and heifers, exhibit his performance and eye appeal. Last year his sons were extremely popular and were among the high sellers. 5

FEATURE: Upper Level is a worthy individual to lead of the 2013 Git 'R Done catalog. His dam is none other than the Catherine cow who has been a very successful donor cow for us. A son sold in last year's sale to Ray Schulhauser at Dysart for his excellent purebred herd. A daughter is a highly prized and productive cow at Jones Land and Cattle Co. at Barrhead, AB and a grandson is in heavy use at Windy Willows. Upper Level is a natural son of the old cow and had a very acceptable birth weight of 82 lbs and then posted a weaning index of 119. Check him out. Here is a herdbull in the making.

FEATURE: Everybody has one or two of those cows that often go unnoticed in the herd but always quietly go about their business and do a bang up job in production. Erica 163N is one such cow! She is very moderate in her frame, maintains herself in nice condition and never seems to have any problems of any kind, a money maker for sure! Upper Class has a big hip, is very long bodied and eye appealing. Ultrasound scan shows him to be well above average for both ribeye area and marbling. His full brother was selected by Duckworth Ranches in last year's sale. 6

Kodiak 1W came to Windy Willows as the top selling bull in the 2010 Everblack Common Sense Bull Sale. He is a 他 brother to the Kodiak 9194 bull at Genex. We were looking for a calving ease bull with thickness and eye appeal and we found him in 1W. He was used on heifers that first year and he did a super job. The Kodiak sons are heavily muscled with lots of hair and a very attractive pattern. We lost him to a shoulder injury and we don't have semen so there won't be many more of his sons and that is very unfortunate! 12

FEATURE: It was really tough to decide which Kodiak 1W son to give the leadoff position in the catalog. Kodiak 103Z gets the nod as he best displays the muscle, hair and style that his sire is noted for. In addition he was one of the highest gaining bulls on test and he scanned the third largest ribeye in the offering. His dam is a very attractive Final Answer daughter. Her first calf, a full sister to 103Z, is one of our best two year olds to calve this year. Check this bull carefully, he could be the one!

Main Street came to Windy Willows as the $13,250 high selling bull from the Minburn Bull Sale. Main Street is powerfully made with plenty of bone, a big round foot and a burly masculine carriage. He is long bodied with a strong top, wide rump, and a long thick hair coat. His sons are made exactly the same way and he stamps them all. He sires more performance than any bull we have ever used and currently ranks in the top 2% of the breed for Yearling Weight EPD at +107. While the Main Street sons are cow bulls, their birth weights are very consistent. Main Street has sired over 150 calves here and we have never assisted a cow that was bred to him. Unassisted calving is expected from all our cows. His daughters are broody females, moderate framed with plenty of capacity, well attached udders and abundant milk. Main Street's Milk EPD is +30, putting him in the top 2% of the breed for Milk.

FEATURE: Standard 123Z is the highest weaning index calf in the 2012 calf crop at 127, first out of 65 bulls. That is no small accomplishment. Even more impressive is the fact that this is the second time that Lady 5U has produced the high indexing bull. She may be the best Main Street daughter in the Windy Willows herd. There is more! Not only are his growth and maternal genetics remarkable but he also scanned the largest ribeye in the offering. Powerful genetics here!

We keep a few cows for our good friend Garth Hollinger. His dam is a Main Street daughter that came through the Grasslands Sale. This bull should work well on heifers. Garth hopes you like him, skiing is expensive!

Standard 128Z is a hard working heifer's first calf and he did himself proud at weaning with a 120 index, second out of 27 bulls. Not only did he grow, but he posted the second highest marbling score at Windy Willows this year, indexing 136. The grand dam, Blackbird 112N, may be our best Alliance daughter. Really good pedigree, really good numbers, really good bull!

We didn't AI many heifers in 2011 so this is the only Final Answer in the sale this year. The Final Answers have been very popular in previous sales and this bull deserves your attention. He was the highest indexing bull in his group at weaning at 120, first of 27. That's not all, check his carcass ultrasound numbers, big ribeye and excellent marbling, a combination that is very difficult to obtain. His dam is one of the first Troubadour daughters in production and they look great!

If you finish your calves or if the carcass quality of your calves is important to you, take a serious look at this bull. He scanned the highest %IMF (intramuscular fat or marbling) of all the bulls in the sale indexing 139 for this important trait. Marbling is a highly heritable trait so you can expect his calves to grade very well and that means extra dollars in your pocket.

Ambush did a great job here. He calved easily, his sons were easy to sell and his daughters now form the core of our cowherd. He is gone now but we still have some semen and use a little every year in an effort to get more daughters. The Alliance sired dam has two daughters in the herd and another working for Lazy R Angus at Medicine Hat. 25

This is quite a bull and his dam Blackbird 79N is one of our most highly prized cows. She is an Elite Dam and produced Blackbird 100R, the dam of Upper Cut and an awesome April bull that sold to Danny LeBrun in our 2010 sale. Last year we were surprised to find that she had calved a month earlier than expected. The only explanation we can offer is that one of our sale bulls had some extracurricular activity one night when a gate latch broke. At any rate this bull cannot be registered because we have been unable to identify his sire. His parentage may be disputable but his quality is not!

OPEN HEIFERS

These heifers represent most of the sires currently in use in our herd. They have not been highly fitted and were developed practically to ensure a long and productive life. Windy Willows females have provided previous customers with exceptional value. For example, WWF Windy Blackbird 49R, produced the Junior Bull Calf Champion at Agribition 2010 for Wiwa Creek Angus. WWF Advantage Euthalla 42P produced a leadoff and high selling heifer for Johnson Livestock. WWF Alliance Jennifer 6N produced the Bull Calf Champion at the Saskatchewan Gold Show and is now an embryo donor for Forsyth Ranch. WWF Prime Time Heroine 88M produced a highly successful herdsire for Bad Lands Angus. There are many more! The next success story is yours for the choosing!

We do our best to ensure that our bulls have sound feet and legs. Weather permitting, we will once again display our bulls on packed gravel prior to the sale allowing you to assess their feet with ease.
