Welcome

We would like to welcome you to the 10th annual Frese Angus and Hereford bull sale. Thank you for taking time to consider our program and this sale offering. Whether you sell calves at weaning, finish them, or are hoping for replacement females I believe there are bulls in this offering that will fit your needs.

directions

We will again have a live auction in our shop that will be broadcast on DV Auction. I encourage you to attend the sale in person as technology isn’t perfect. With that said we believe DV Auction is a great option and if you’re unable to be here in person you can bid through their platform. Please remember to register ahead of the sale. We also invite you to stop anytime prior to sale day to look through the bulls.

The bulls we are offering will be 18 months or 2 years old when most people turn out. We feel this gives you the customer a more durable bull that can cover more cows, and hold up longer.

As the customer you are the most important part of our business, we realize that without you we couldn’t do what we enjoy here everyday. An enormous amount of time and energy is spent to find and utilize top genetics both in our herd and from around the country. With that said we truly appreciate feedback from you, this is the way we are able to know what we’re doing right, and what we need to improve.

We look forward to visiting with each of you on sale day, or anytime by call, text, email, or in person. You are encouraged to stop out and see the bulls here at home before the sale. We love having you at the sale on sale day, but since that isn’t always possible, the sale will be online at DV Auction. We can also take orders if that’s more convenient for you. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions about our sale or our program.

The 224 bull has been selected as lot 1 both for what he has done as well as the cows behind him. A huge birth to yearling EPD spread on a heifer bull with a good look. He has an individual weaning ratio of 111 and yearling ratio of 114. His dam 406 has progeny weaning ratios of 5@112, and his grand dam 133 has progeny weaning ratios of 10@109. These cows get it done, and this bull is a good one.

164 is a neat looking bull out of a productive young cow. We have flushed his mother, and there are maternal brothers by Resource and Sherman selling later in the sale. This heifer bull is in the top 10% for CED, top 15% for BW, top 20% for Ribeye, and top 2% for $M.

In the past we’ve had many questions about ET calf weights and why we print them as ET only.

Over the years there have been recip cows that consitently produce high or low BW calves no matter the matings. We utilize AngusGS across all the bulls to add accuracy to EPD’s, but especially ET calves. We are printing the BW on the ET calves this year, however we felt it would be good to offer an explanation and encourage you to look beyond actual ET weights high or low, as they are heavily influenced by an unrelated recip.

This is a deep bodied powerful bull that goes back to the 287 donor cow. The Architect calves have been good every year we’ve used him and 174 is no exception.

6

374 is the result of an embryo purchase, he is a moderate framed dense bodied bull. He has a pedigree stacked with good cows, going back to the great 4136 cow from SAV. A little different bull and pedigree that we think is a good addition. His flush sister is looking good in the replacement pen.

Friday, February 27 | 1:00 PM CST

Lot’s 10-13 are flush brothers out of the 170 donor and sired by Sherman. These bulls flush brothers and maternal brothers have been well received in past years.

These brothers have calving ease, carcass, and growth along with a good look.

A flush sister is the dam of lot 4.

This is Maggie’s bull, he’s a deep bodied gentle Gable son that would work for heifers. His dam is a good uddered Protocol daughter out of the good 287 donor.

294 is a maternal brother to the lot 2 bull last year and out of the 516 donor. This bull ratioed 103@weaning and 107@yearling. His mother is 10 years old and raising another good bull calf. She has a great look and udder. Expect a lot more maternal brothers to this bull in the future.

S A V Resource 1441 These 3 Resource brothers out of the 170 donor are thick made and moderate framed. They are maternal brothers to lot 2 as well as the flush brothers out of Sherman who are lots 10-13. Their flush brothers in last years sale were well received.

Very high growth out of one of the real good looking cows in the herd. He has top 5% WW and Milk EPD’s to go along with top 10% YW and top 15% $M. This is a good cow bull.

614 is Maggie’s bull and is a maternal brother to lot 1 in last year’s sale. He is a younger calf, but he’s done well. Top 2% Milk and $M EPD’s. He has top foot and carcass EPD’s as well. His young dam has 2 progeny weaning ratios at 108. Good younger bull here.

These 2 flush brothers are out of the good 738 donor and sired by Craftsman. Their dam has been and continues to be flushed heavily with excellent results. She is a powerful, good footed and good uddered cow who is a 3rd generation donor. These bulls had a large group of flush brothers on last years sale and we are using one in our herd.

Lawson owns their oldest flush sister and she has a very nice bull calf at side.

This is a heifer bull out of a first calf heifer. Someone messed up this guy’s freeze brand, maybe me, but don’t let that fool you he’s a good bull. With only a 69lb actual BW he should be calving ease.

154 is a good powerful cow bull out of a good Tahoe daughter.

Very good EPD’s for Claw and Angle as well as $M. This bull doesn’t stand out on EPD’s, but solid everywhere and he’s got a good look.

AMERICAN ANGUS ASSOCIATION SELECTION TOOLS Expected Progeny Difference (EPD), is the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to the progeny of other animals listed in the database. EPDs are expressed in units of measure for the trait, plus or minus. Interim EPDs may appear on young animals when their performance has yet to be incorporated into the American Angus Association National Cattle Evaluation (NCE) procedures. This EPD will be preceded by an “I”, and may or may not include the animal’s own performance record for a particular trait, depending on its availability, appropriate contemporary grouping, or data edits needed for NCE.

Foot Angle (Angle), expressed in units of foot-angle score, a lower EPD is more favorable, indicating a sire will produce progeny with an angle closer to 45 degrees at the pastern and appropriate toe length and heel depth compared to another sire.

Docility (DOC), expressed as a difference in yearling cattle temperament, with a higher value indicating more favorable docility in a sire’s offspring compared to another sire.

Fat Thickness EPD (Fat), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in external fat thickness at the 12th rib (as measured between the 12th and 13th ribs) of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

$VALUE INDEXES $Value Indexes, expressed in dollars per head, are multi-trait selection indexes where a higher value suggests more profit. The $Value is an estimate of how future progeny of each sire are Pulmonary Arterial Pressure EPD (PAP), expressed in millimeters of Mercury (mmHg), with a expected to perform, on average, compared to progeny of other sires if sires were randomly lower EPD being more favorable indicating a sire should produce progeny with a lower PAP score mated to cows and if calves were exposed to the same environment. to decrease the risk of progeny contracting high altitude disease most commonly experienced at Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M), expressed in dollars per head, predicts profitability Accuracy (ACC), is the reliability that can be placed on the EPD. Accuracy will range from 0 to 1 5,500 ft or greater in elevation. differences in progeny due to genetics from conception to weaning by decreasing mature cow with an accuracy closer to 1.0 indicating higher reliability. Accuracy is impacted by the amount Hair Shed EPD (HS), expressed in units of hair shed score, with a lower EPD being more size and improving docility, foot structure and fertility while maintaining weaning weights of information that is included in the analysis including individual genotype and performance favorable. This indicates a sire should produce progeny who shed their winter coat earlier in consistent with today’s production. records as well as number of progeny and ancestral records. the spring and has improved environmental adaptability in heat stressed areas and grazing endophyte-infected (hot) fescue.

Weaned Calf Value ($W), expressed in dollars per head, provides the expected difference in PRODUCTION future progeny pre-weaning performance from birth to weaning.

Calving Ease Direct (CED), expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, MATERNAL Energy Value ($EN), expressed in dollar savings per cow per year with a larger value being with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. It predicts the average Heifer Pregnancy (HP), is a selection tool to increase the probability or chance of a sire’s more favorable. It assesses differences in cow energy requirements, due to maternal milk and difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers. daughters becoming pregnant as first–calf heifers during a normal breeding season. A higher mature cow size.

EPD is the more favorable direction, and the EPD is reported in percentage units.

Birth Weight (BW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit birth weight Feedlot Value ($F), expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future to his progeny compared to that of other sires.

Calving Ease Maternal (CEM), expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, progeny performance for post-weaning feedlot merit (growth and feed efficiency) compared to with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf daughters. It predicts the average progeny of other sires assuming producers retain ownership of cattle through the feedlot phase Weaning Weight (WW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit ease with which a sire’s daughters will calve as first-calf heifers when compared to daughters and sell on a carcass-weight basis. weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. of other sires.

Grid Value ($G), expressed in dollars per carcass, is the expected average difference in future Yearling Weight (YW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling Maternal Milk (Milk), expressed in pounds of calf weaned, is a predictor of a sire’s genetic progeny performance for carcass grid merit, including quality and yield grade attributes, growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. merit for milk and mothering ability in his daughters. In other words, it is the part of the calf’s compared to progeny of other sires. weaning weight attributes to milk and mothering ability.

Residual Average Daily Gain (RADG), feed efficiency expressed in pounds per day, is a Beef Value ($B), expressed in dollars per carcass, represents the expected average differences predictor of a sire’s genetic ability for post-weaning gain in future progeny compared to that of Mature Weight (MW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the difference in mature weight of in the progeny post-weaning performance and carcass value compared to progeny of other other sires, given a constant amount of feed consumed. daughters of a sire compared to the daughters of other sires. sires. This index assumes commercial producers wean all male and female progeny, retain ownership of these animals through the feedlot and sell on a carcass merit grid.

Dry Matter Intake (DMI), expressed in pounds per day, is a predictor of difference in Mature Height (MH), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the difference in mature height of a transmitting ability for feed intake during the post-weaning phase, compared to that of other sire’s daughters compared to daughters of other sires.

Combined Value ($C), expressed in dollars per head, which includes all traits that make up sires. both Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M) and Beef Value ($B) with the objective that commercial CARCASS producers will replace 20% of their breeding females per year with replacement heifers retained Yearling Height (YH), expressed in inches, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling Carcass Weight (CW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the differences in hot carcass within their own herd. The remaining cull heifer and steer progeny are then assumed to be height compared to that of other sires. weight of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. sent to the feedlot where the producers retain ownership of those cattle and sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid.

Scrotal Circumference (SC), expressed in centimeters, is a predictor of the difference in Marbling (Marb), expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a sire’s transmitting scrotal size compared to that of other sires. progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

MANAGEMENT Claw Set (Claw), expressed in units of claw-set score, a lower EPD is more favorable, indicating Ribeye Area (RE), expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. a sire will produce progeny with more symmetrical, even and appropriately spaced toes compared to another sire.
