HULA
HEREFORDS Bull & Female Sale Welcome! It has been another year of volatile markets with an opportunity to make some profits if you caught the right swing. Through the good and bad markets, one thing holds true: high quality, consistent, proven cattle still top the markets in all segments of this business. These are traits and genetic profile we have been able to build here at Hula Herefords with 4 generations of Hereford breeding, knowledge, and experience. We are proud to offer top of the line cattle that will increase profits. You will also see over the coming years our increased usage of bulls that we’ve raised within our own program. Bri closed out another solid year in the show ring having success with both her cattle and horses. She was Champion Novice Showman, Champion Hereford Heifer and Champion Hereford Bull. On the horse side of things she was Reserve Champion Novice Showman and Reserve Champion All Around Horseman along with several other class winners. While the show ring is fun and gives a general idea of where we stand in respect to our peers, we still understand that pounds sold at weaning or grade and yield at slaughter are your top priority. We continue to strive for high performing, balanced, efficient cattle that will work in the commercial cattleman’s industry. This is evident in the strides we have taken to give you as much information as possible about our stock. As stated in the footnotes we were very long on heifers and short on bulls this years. That is why you see our own heifers in both the fall and spring sales. This is also why there is a limited bull offering this year. We don’t sell bulls just for the sake of selling bulls. Each bull we sell must earn his own merit as to why his genetics should carry on. Quality starts from the ground up, and I know I speak for my entire family when I say that functional correctness and disposition are our top priorities. We focus on balancing phenotype and EPD’s to provide a high quality offering. Whether you are a long time purchaser of Hula Hereford genetics or are a first time buyer, we thank you for your support and interest in our program. Should you have any questions, please feel free to call, text, or email one of the individuals listed on the next page. We will be happy to discuss any lot with you. If you are in the area please stop by. Visitors are always welcome. We invite you to our Creston location February 9, 2019, to evaluate our offering, place your bids and enjoy lunch on us! Sincerely, The Hula’s

Bri showed this bull as a cow calf pair and individually this past summer. He stood 4th in a very tough class at Junior Nationals. He is better than breed average in 20 of the 21 breed EPD traits. He is as balanced as they come and outstanding in his rib shape and hip structure.

HEREFORD EPD BASICS What is an EPD? An Expected Progeny Difference (EPD) is a measure of the genetic merit of an animal using relevant performance and pedigree information in a process called Best Linear Unbiased Prediction. EPDs are expressed in the units of measure. For example, birth weight is expressed in lb. and ribeye area in square inches. EPDs come from performance data that producers submit on their cattle. From this data, researchers look at the differences between animals raised in the same environment (contemporary groups) and ascertain the portion of that difference that is due to genetics (heritability). How the different traits relate to each other and interact together (correlations) is also accounted for in the analysis. They can then directly compare genetic differences among animals using the pedigree information contained in the registries of all PACE member countries. The result is a value that can be directly compared between animals and across environments, an EPD.
