b r u n i n g fa r m s PRODUCTION SALE

FEB . 21 , 2 0 1 6 3:00 IN THE AFTERNOON FA I R B U R Y , N E B R A S K A

Welcome,

Thank you for your interest in our inaugural Production Sale. Selling private treaty in the past, this sale is the culmination of more than 40 years of offering quality and proven Angus genetics. I know these bulls and females will work hard for you just as they have for us.

Our operation allows us to see each calf crop from beginning to end, helping us to dial in on performance and provide the relevant genetics that are essential for progressive cattlemen.

The success of this sale will not be measured by the average highs, lows or bargains - only by the animals that sold, positively impacting the cattleman’s operation so that as an industry we can progressively breed for better beef.

Respectfully,

REISS, FRED & FRANK BRUNING

P H O T O G R A P H Y and video was done by the phenomenal Morgan Meisenheimer. Though her pictures are unrivaled, her help with all other aspects of laying out this sale was invaluable and so greatly appreciated. @morganleighmeisenheimer facebook.com/MLMeisenheimer C ATA L O G & W E B S I T E designed by Heather Oentrich (soon-to-be Bruning). She has been keeping me organized since 2010, so this was only a small task. @featha_heatha A W H O L E L O T O F T H A N K S to everyone who has helped us out this far. The preparation and organization of this sale would not have been possible without the help from many close friends and great cattlemen. Frank Bruning always says, “You’re only as good as the people you surround yourself with,” and we know that holds true as we have some exceptional friends and neighbors that we can not say “thank you” enough to: Tyler Hartwell, Jake Bruss, Trevor Birky, Cory Voss, Calvin Dix, Michael Cox DVM, Kirk Willoughby, Tim Hochstetler, David Lee, and Andrew Dorn. Grandpa Frank also occasionally mentions, “It’s hard to soar with the eagles when you’re surrounded by turkeys...”

U. S . P R E M I U M B E E F is a marketing company which provides an opportunity for beef producers to retain ownership of the beef they produce from ranch to retail. It is owned by beef producers who produce high quality cattle that will go into value-added beef products designed to meet consumer’s demands.

B R U N I N G FA R M S has been a U.S. Premium Beef shareholder since 2001. For the last 15 years, we have collected individual carcass data to track genetic improvement.

In 2015, four pot loads of home-bred and raised Bruning Farms genetics graded 10 0 % C H O I C E and an average 17.8% P R I M E with 28 % Y I E L D G R A D E 2 and 5 5 % Y I E L D G R A D E 3.

In all, nearly 300 head of cattle averaged 98% USDA Choice or higher.

2 01 6 P R O D U C TI O N S A LE

If you look at the progeny of Connealy In Focus 4925 and rank them by end product, you will find that ‘C08’ stands 17th for $B, and of those 17 sons, this bull is the first son that is double digit CED. He stems from an elite calving ease 1023 daughter that is front pasture material. This moderate milk female is perfect uddered, positive $EN and produces a scale crusher time and time again. Like his father, this bull will sire moderate framed, deep-ribbed, functional cattle but perhaps his biggest claim to fame may be the females that he leaves behind. C08 should be an udder improver.

C08 is the top 1% $W and $B, top 2% WW, top 3% RE.

TEN X FLUSHMATE SONS

These two bulls represent one of our favorite Angus matings: Ten X on a good Predestined Female.

These ET Full Brothers are Below 1 for BW, top 10% CW, top 2% MARB, top 10% $W, top 4% $G, top 3% $B, top 25% heifer pregnancy and bottom 50% mature weight and height. Ten X is the Angus breed’s leading sire for annual registrations. He is a highly proven curve bender who excels in all EPD traits, from birth to carcass and does it with a pedigree that is outcross to many bloodlines. He comes from a strong maternal base from the highly respected Arntzen program and combines calving ease with outlier carcass values. The Dam 127S is the donor dam of several of the Angus bulls selling and has left her mark as being the most prolific of our Predestined daughters. She has a near ideal udder and her sons will leave you with an ideal-sized, efficient cow herd. 61, the famous donor dam of 127S, combines a progeny birth weight ratio of 92, progeny weaning and yearling ratios of 108 and 105 on five natural calves with 125 head evaluated by ultrasound and 42 daughters in production in the AHIR program. Maternal siblings to 127s include the ABS Global sire E&B 1680 Precision 1023 and a multitude of top-selling females.

This select group of heifers was purchased out of the sandhills of Nebraska shortly after weaning.They were developed on a diet of corn stalks, native grass, and very little protein supplementation to gain 1.1lbs per day through 45 days post breeding, in order to ensure a long, reproductively efficient presence in the herd.

Synchronized and artificially bred, the sire of all calves offered is Barstow Final Answer W73 whom is represented heavily throughout the production sale. W73 has made given us excellent progeny both males and females, as you have seen, and we feel the heifer calves offered will be replacement quality. Heifers were administered their second shot of ScourGuard two weeks prior to calving. Calves are roughly 1 month of age and bulls are still intact. They are tagged with their own individual numbers on the bottom, and their dam’s above theirs. They are also given a tattoo in each ear matching the bottom tag number.

EXPECTED PROGENY DIFFERENCES (EPD) C A LV I N G E A S E D I R E C T (C E D ) 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.

B I R T H W E I G H T E P D ( B W ) , expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

W E A N I N G W E I G H T E P D ( W W ) , expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Y E A R L I N G W E I G H T E P D ( Y W ) , expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

M AT E R N A L M I L K E P D ( M I L K ) 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.

C O W E N E R G Y VA L U E ( $ E N ) , expressed in dollar savings per cow per year, assesses differences in cow energy requirements as an expected dollar savings difference in daughters of sires. A larger value is more favorable when comparing two animals (more

dollars saved on feed energy expenses). Components for computing the cow $EN savings difference include lactation energy requirements and energy costs associated with differences in mature cow size.

M A R B L I N G E P D ( M A R B ) , expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

R I B E Y E A R E A E P D ( R E ) , expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

M AT E R N A L M I L K E P D ( M I L K ) 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 E A N E D C A L F VA L U E ( $ W ) , an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for preweaning merit. $W includes both revenue and cost adjustments associated with differences in birth weight, weaning direct growth, maternal milk and mature cow size.

B E E F VA L U E ($ B ), an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for postweaning and carcass value compared to progeny of other sires.
