Soldiers Prayer O God, we know you care about each of your children, around the globe. We praise your loving kindness, your merciful grace. This day we lift to you our troops. So far from home and family, they do their best to serve with faithfulness and honor. Hold them tightly, Holy One. Give them courage. As they endure harsh conditions, loneliness and great danger, let them know your nearness. Help them feel your love, and comfort the families left behind. Also, we pray for the end of war. We pray for your strength, your wisdom and your reconciliation. That the serving men and women of every nation might be at home, wrapped in their families, we seek your peace, here on earth, as in heaven. Creator, bless us all as we pray in your holy name. Amen.

To all military personnel in our circle of cattle friends: We can never begin to thank you enough for what you have done and continue to do for our country. God bless each and every one of you. The Moser and Michaelis Families

I get asked often where the cover photos come from for our catalog every year. The answer is simple. They come from pictures taken during our every day life. My dear college friend, Dee Weeda, who has run her Angus cows here on Moser Ranch since 2010 and has graciously allowed us to manage them for her, snapped this year’s cover photo while we were out checking cattle together this summer. This is the 4th year for Dee’s bulls to be in our sale. She is a savvy cattlewoman and we enjoy working with her. This catalog is my compilation of our year’s work and day-to-day life, and our family is proud to share it with you. Special thanks to LivestockDirect.net for advising on and the printing of this representation of who we are. -Lisa Moser

Harry and Lisa Moser and Family 3063 26th Road, Wheaton, Kansas 66521 Welcome to our Family's 24th Bull Sale! Thank you for taking time to evaluate our 2015 sale offering. Our focus, as it has always been, is to improve your bottom line with genetics that will efficiently produce a product that is of high quality and in demand to meet what our industry-and most importantly what the consumer-wants. This is our way of life, we have to do it right to survive. As in the past, our catalog is in sale order. Doing this every year is a challenge! We wait until ultrasound and gain information are gathered and studied before we sort the bulls for sale order. Blending numbers, phenotype, ET sets of brothers and different breeds of cattle provides a long afternoon's challenge to lay out the catalog, but it happened on October 10th. It took Rex and Harry three and a half hours to sift through bulls, even after the morning "preliminary sort," and again, they discussed how deep the quality runs in our offering this year. There are 20 Angus bulls, the most we have ever offered, and they are an impressive set. They will hold their own against any Angus bulls that will be sold in the next year. Our entire offering includes calving ease, performance, carcass and maternal bulls, as well as many "combination bulls" that excel in of all those traits. All but one sale bull are positive for marbling EPD, and that lone bull is at zero. Ultimately, it all comes down to pounds, but quality has and will again secure premiums in the future. With Moser genetics you can be ready to collect the rewards for pounds and quality. Over the years, folks who attend our sale are impressed with the easy, straightforward approach we use to market our bulls. Our auctioneer has been with us for 24 years. He owns Holton Livestock Exchange, a local sale barn, and he can call most of our customers by name as they buy bulls. Our ringmen are attentive to your bidding, and are professionally cognizant of our customers' desire to know where they stand in the bidding process. New in our catalog this year is the registration number for every bull. Note: Most of the Simmental and SimAngus bull numbers are in parenthesis, meaning they are not actually registered yet, but when we do register them after the sale, that number will be their registration number. Having this information in the catalog enables you to look up any Simmental or Percentage bull in the ASA database, or Angus in the AAA database, if you would like a more extensive look at their pedigree and performance prior to sale day. Give us a call or shoot us a text or an email and make arrangements to come and see the bulls here on the ranch prior to sale day. Or, if you'd rather, a bull video will be online at www.moserranch. com or the LivestockDirect.net website. This is the second best year ever for those of us in the beef industry. Please take some time to study the top of page 27 to see what calf prices have done in the past. Even with these exceptional prices, there is still an opportunity to be at the top of today's market with cattle of proven genetics and proven track records. Join us to become a part of our total industry focus to raise the best possible beef. Being seedstock and commercial producers puts us in a unique position when compared to many purebred breeders. Our intention on the Moser Ranch is to raise cattle that will work for you, not the other way around. Along that line, we develop our bulls much differently than most breeders. Please read about our bull management on pages 6 & 8. What you will find in our bull pens are calves that are ready to go to work and stay in your herd for many useful years.

Thank you for considering Moser Ranch genetics. See you on November 14thThe Moser and Michaelis Families

Buyer Information DELIVERY Moser Ranch will pick up the first $250/head on transportation expenses on bulls averaging $5000. We will assist buyers in making the most economical trucking arrangements for other bulls. Transportation is at buyer's risk; please insure your purchases. See insurance information below.

BULL MANAGEMENT

Fall bulls were weaned here on the ranch on April 3, 2015. On April 26 they were moved to fescue until July 6, when they were moved to native. Spring bulls were weaned in large lots in October 20, 2014, then wintered on a growing ration. They spent the spring on brome and fescue and were moved to native grass on July 15. On August 16th, all bulls were weighed in for the start of the gain test. Fall bulls are in an 80 acre native pasture, and spring bulls in a 30 acre native pasture. Target gain was 3.2#/ day. Results are listed in the catalog. The ration consists of corn silage, ground grass hay, wet distillers, cracked corn and a base mineral & vitamin premix. WE FEEL VERY STRONGLY THAT "RANGE DEVELOPING" OUR BULLS AND NOT PUSHING THEM HARD ON TEST allows them to express their genetics on a more realistic level, stay more structurally sound, and they are presented to you at sale time in "breeding appropriate" condition scores. Please remember that these bulls are still growing, and will continue to do so for at least the next year to year and a half. Until breeding season, they need to stay on a similar plain of nutrition, 5-7# of grain in addition to silage or hay.

BULL CARE OPTION

If you are unable to take your bull(s) at this time, we offer the following care option: We will feed any purchases free of charge until December 1, 2015. From December 1st to April 1, 2016, we will feed the bulls for $325.00/head. This fee includes normal care and feeding and a spring semen test. Any out of the ordinary expenses-vet, etc.-will be the responsibility of the owner. After April 1, a charge of $3.00/head/day will incur. The $325.00 will be charged at settlement. They will be cared for as they have been prior to the sale. SELLER WILL ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR INJURY OR DEATH OF ANIMAL(S). Insurance is readily available to cover bulls in the event of loss of use or mortality.

INSURANCE

At settlement, the option will be available for you to purchase "Full Mortality Coverage" on your bulls for death from all natural causes and accidental causes including life-threatening injuries. Rates are as follows: 1 month/2.4% of purchase value; 3 months/3.6%, 6 months/4%, 1 year/ 6%. Agent is Sheila Jensen, Jensen Livestock Agency. Cell 785.374.4372, or call 785.262.1116. NEW THIS YEAR: "LOSS OF USE & MORTALITY" COVERAGE. Through Copeland Insurance; agent is Lance Sharp. Cell 785.656.2686. Cost is 12% of purchase value for 1 year coverage. In the event you use this coverage, you will receive 80% of value of bull less salvage value. BOTH AGENTS WILL BE PRESENT ON SALE DAY. IF BULLS WINTER AT THE MOSER RANCH, WE ENCOURAGE COVERAGE.

CATALOG EPD INFORMATION

Fall 2015 breed average EPDs for active Simmental, SimAngus and Angus sires can be found on page 7. You can directly compare the Moser Bulls of each breed to the current active sires for each respective breed on page 7.

ULTRASOUND Craig Hays from Critical Insights collected ultrasound images on spring bulls on April 15, 2015. He also collected ultrasound images on our fall bulls on October 1, 2015. We have been providing ultrasound information in one form or another to our customers since 1996. The following thoughts about ultrasound are important to remember: 1. The American Simmental Association utilizes the ultrasound information in the calculation of the carcass EPDs that they generate. So, the data itself is already figured into the carcass EPDs. We feel that using the carcass EPDs is a more accurate way to make your selection than by using the adjusted raw ultrasound data. To help with this transition, we have developed a "Plus System" and also supplied you with the in-herd ratio for each measured trait. The system reads as such in the catalog: +++ means a bull scanned in the upper 1/3* for that trait (REA or MRB)

HERD HEALTH Dr. Randall Hobrock, Concordia, Kansas, and Dr. Ann Buchanan, Olsburg, KS, are our herd veterinarians. Health papers will be in order for all cattle. Spring Bull Health Work-May: Vaccinations-Ultrabac 7, Inforce 3, One Shot, Piliguard Pinkeye. August: Bovi Gold 5, One Shot, Dectomax. Fall Bull Health Work-November: Vaccinations-Ultrabac 7, Inforce 3, One Shot, Dectomax. April: Bovi Gold 5 Booster, One Shot, Dectomax, Piliguard Pinkeye.

++ means a bull scanned in the middle 1/3* for that trait (REA or MRB)

ALL BULLS HAVE BEEN TESTED FOR BVD PI, TRICHOMONIASIS and LEUKOSIS SEMEN TESTING All bulls were semen tested on October 27, 2015 in

+ means a bull scanned in the lower 1/3* for that trait (REA or MRB) (*the upper, middle or lower 1/3 of each bull's contemporary group) If you want the raw data on a particular bull, let us know and we can supply it. 2. Fat thickness amounts vary greatly depending on feeding. Our bulls are set up to gain 3.25#/day on test. THEY ARE NOT FAT.

the event that you want to put them out with cows immediately. For bulls not working until Spring 2015, a re-check is recommended at that time.

RULE OF THUMB CONCERNING BULL USE Put a yearling bull with no more than 20-25 cows, and pull him away from the cowherd after a 45 to 80 day breeding season. The older spring born bulls can handle up to 30-35 cows, but please pull them away from the breeding herd after a 45-80 season as well. Young bulls need time to regain condition lost during breeding, and to help them continue to grow and develop properly and rebuild fertility. Fall worming and a complete vaccination schedule is recommended.

RETAINED SEMEN INTEREST

The Moser Ranch is retaining a 1/3 semen interest in all polled bulls in the offering. You will own full possession and salvage value of the animal. In the event that semen sales become a reality on your purchase, the Moser Ranch is basically retaining the right to 1/3 of the semen sales revenue. If you sell the bull to another cattleman, the 1/3 semen interest is still retained by the Moser Ranch. We reserve the right to collect bulls of interest to us at buyer's convenience and seller's expense.

EMBRYO TRANSFER

Cross Country Genetics North, Westmoreland, KS, has been our ET company since we started doing embryo transfer in 1991. Drs. Kirk Gray and Clay Breiner and their staff have done a great job for us the past 24 years, and we appreciate their efforts.

5% REPEAT BUYER DISCOUNT

In an effort to reward loyal bull customers, we are pleased to continue our "Repeat Buyer Discount" policy this year. This is how it works: If you purchased a bull (or bulls) in our November 8, 2014 sale, you will receive 5% off your total bull purchase in this November 14, 2015 sale. This is a continuous credit policy, which is in effect each year. This 5% discount is determined after all credits have been subtracted from the gross purchase price. FOR THOSE CUSTOMERS WHO USE EXCLUSIVELY MOSER GENETICS FOR THEIR BREEDING STOCK BUT MAY NOT PURCHASE BULLS EVERY YEAR, you can plan on being able to use this repeat discount as well. PLEASE LET THE GIRLS KNOW AT SETTLEMENT IF YOU PURCHASE AND USE MOSER GENETICS EXCLUSIVELY IN YOUR HERD. This is our way of saying "Thank You" to all our bull buyers. -our thanks to Gardiner Angus Ranch, Ashland, KS, for allowing us to use their basic idea of the 5% repeat customer discount and adapt it to our program. (2006)

A Rock Solid Program...the Moser Ranch

American Simmental Association's EPDs and $ INDEXES...and then "Our Take" on Bull Selection Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs) EPDs are the most accurate and effective tool available for comparing genetic levels. In using EPDs, the difference between two sires' EPDs represents the unit difference expected in the performance of their progeny. The EPDs are generated by actual data turned in by Simmental and SimAngus breeders. Dollar Indexes ($ INDEXES) (DOLLAR INDEXES) $ Indexes blend EPDs and economics to estimate an animal's overall impact on your bottom line and

are expressed in dollars/cow exposed. They are a very simplified method to use in bull selection. All-Purpose Index (API) Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd with a portion of the daughters kept back as replacements to maintain herd size and the remaining calf crop put on feed and sold grade & yield. Terminal Index (TI) Evaluates sire for use on mature Angus cows with all offspring put on feed and sold grade & yield. To use API or TI: First, determine which index to use; if you're keeping replacements use API, if not, use TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference between bulls.

Harry & Lisa's thoughts on Bull Selection...You can make your bull selection truly your own. Decide what is important in your program. Then explore the appropriate EPDs or Indexes. Next, visually evaluate those animals that fall into your accepted range of those numbers. Don't oversimplify, but don't select your herdsires using only the numbers either. "Mathematizing" is happening in all breeds; associations are providing all kinds of new figuresindexes, some dollar figures, etc. These are formulated by some estimations and assumptions. When it gets right down to the nuts and bolts of bull selection, use the proven science and keep the other number "tools" in perspective, look at the bulls, consider the seedstock source-their use of proven genetics, their services and their approach to raising real-world cattle in a real-world environment, and then try to buy your herdsires at a reasonable price. You will not be disappointed in Moser Ranch's cattle, our guarantee, or our service.

A Rock Solid Program...the Moser Ranch

MOSER RANCH SERVICES OUR PERSONAL ALLIANCE WITH YOU, OUR CUSTOMER remains at the top of our priority list. (Since 1993) We will continue to take the time necessary to explore new marketing avenues and alliances so that our customers will have access to some of the most progressive marketing opportunities in the country. Customer service is one of our highest priorities-get in touch with us via email or phone calls anytime concerning your calf crop or the cattle you purchase. Contact us if you want us to make a personal herd visit, or feel free to come to our place and explore our operation as we also get to know you and yours. We still believe that one-on-one is the best way to get to know customers. MOSER PREVACC CALF SALES (Since October 2001) Over 5900 head of customer cattle have sold through Moser Influence LMA-VACC sales at Holton Livestock Exchange, Holton, Kansas. Our sale is held in conjunction with Holton Livestock's regular fall LMA-VACC Sale. We must know at least 45 days in advance whether you plan to consign to our PreVacc Sale because of veterinary health work that must be done and paperwork that must be filed. This marketing avenue will keep you on track with the changes the industry is implementing as far as age and source verification, animal ID, and "age of animal" issues for beef's international markets. It is a VALUABLE option! Contact us or call Dan Harris at 785.364.4114 at Holton Holton Livestock Exchange, Holton, Kansas Livestock Exchange to consign. COMMERCIAL CUSTOMER FEMALE SALES (Since 2006) Females sired by Moser bulls and meeting certain other requirements will be eligible to sell at a Moser sponsored annual sale. Our 10th annual sale is scheduled for January 2016, at Holton Livestock Exchange. If you are interested in this option, please check with us one to two months in advance of sale day so that we can determine your opportunities.

SIMCHOICE (Since 2007) Age & Source verifying your cattle pays worthwhile dividends, and the Moser Ranch is proud to offer this service to our customers. 3570 Moser-sired customer calves have been tagged thus far. Contact us to get your calves enrolled. SimChoice is regulated MicroBeef. WINTER BULL CARE (Since 2006) Please study the Bull Care Option on page 6 of this catalog. If you donâ€™t have a place to keep your bull until you need him next spring, we offer a very economical program to have your bull cared for here at our ranch through April 1, 2016, just as he has been for the past three months. You'll have your genetics purchased, and you can rest assured your bulls will be ready to work for you next spring. Guaranteed. COMPREHENSIVE INSURANCE (Since 2007) With the value of cattle being what it is these days, your herd sire purchase represents an investment in quality which deserves protection. Please read on page 6 about an opportunity you will have at our sale to purchase a Comprehensive Insurance Policy on your investment at very reasonable rates. BULL MANAGEMENT (Since 1993) Just a few additional notes concerning our bull development (found at the top of page 6). Our unique approach to range growing our bulls allows them to stay sound. They ARE NOT in a feedlot setting during the gain test, and they ARE NOT fed a hot ration, but instead, a growing ration. Genetics can be expressed favorably under these conditions. Our bulls are hard and structurally sound. They won't boast 1400# yearling weights, but they will go out and breed cows, keep their condition, and transmit their proven genetics to their offspring. Many customers have commented on how our bulls hold together during breeding season.

Please call us at 785.396.4328 or 785.456.3101 with any questions you may have about ANY of Moser Ranch Services

The Moser Ranch Mission Statement for the 21st Century : The Moser Ranch is dedicated to the efficient production of a high quality beef product that will consistently be a very satisfying eating experience. By constantly monitoring measurable goals for our genetics, we are confident that our cattle ARE working for our customers. Continued customer and consumer education concerning beef and the beef industry, as well as pursuing marketing enhancements for our customers' products will also remain priorities in our program. -Established December 1999 by the Moser Ranch

This line shows how the individual animal ratioed within his contemporary group for all traits measured. Contemporary groups are: Spring Yearling Simmental & Percentage Bulls, Yearling Simmental & Percentage Bulls, Spring Yearling Angus Bulls, Yearling Angus Bulls.

Calving Ease-Percent of unassisted births when used on heifers. The HIGHER the CE number, the better.

Birthweight-Pounds of birth weight. The LOWER the BW number, the lighter the bull's calves will be at birth.

Weaning Weight-Pounds of weaning weight. The HIGHER the WW number, the more pounds weaned.

Yearling Weight-Pounds of yearling weight. The HIGHER the YW number, the more pounds at yearling.

MCE

Maternal Calving Ease-Percent of unassisted births in bull's first-calving daughters. HIGHER number is better.

Milk

Milk-Pounds of weaning weight due to milk. Available feed resources are important to consider when selecting for milk.

MWW

Maternal Weaning Weight-Pounds of weaning weight due to milk and growth combined.

Carcass Trait EPDs and What They Measure: CW

Carcass Weight-Pounds of carcass weight.

Back Fat-Inches of backfat measured at the 12th and 13th rib. The LOWER the number, the less fat cover on the carcass.

REA YG MRB

Ribeye Area-Square inches of ribeye muscle when the carcass is split between the 12th and 13th ribs. LARGER number, the better. Yield Grade-Yield Grade score. Estimates average differences in cutability at a given endpoint. LOWER YG number, the better. Marbling-Numerical marbling score. The HIGHER the MRB number, the better.

Other Information Provided on Bulls: API

Mom Moser: Incredible Baker, Mom, Mother-in-Law, Grandma, Great-Grandma

Harry’s mom, Elaine Moser, is 84 years young, and still makes bread on a regular basis. When Harry and his 5 siblings were growing up, she made 8 loaves of bread every 5 days. There is no telling how many 1000’s of loaves of bread this woman has made in the last 60 years since she married LaVerne, who convinced her to start baking bread (in bulk!) using an Army recipe he brought home from the Korean War. Her baking is a delicious event to experience, especially when it’s “time for coffee” at the Moser home in North Dakota. She brings the snickerdoodles, sugar cookies, peanut butter cookies, oatmeal raisin cookies and molasses cookies for our sale every year. She’s pictured here deep frying her famous bread dough. Topped with butter, chocolate syrup, or strawberry jam, or maple syrup or white syrup or powdered sugar, fried bread dough is a taste of heaven! A wonderful mother to all of her family, this lady never ceases to amaze us. Thank you for your love, your support, and your homemade bread!

Homozygous Black...Homozygous Polled ~ Exactly what do those terms mean? In our college genetics books, homozygous is defined as having identical alleles at corresponding loci on homologous chromosomes so that the organism breeds true with respect to these loci. (the definition hasn't changed in 30+ years!) Homozygous Black: In simpler terms, a homozygous black bull gives a black gene to his offspring every time. He "breeds true" for color. Black, which is dominant to the red color in cattle, will be the color of every animal sired by a homozygous black bull. IF you have cows that carry the dilution gene, (yellow and gray females carry the dilution gene, as do some lighter red cows) they may give that dilution gene to their offspring, which "dilutes" the black color to gray. The homozygous black bull has nothing to do with the resulting gray individual. Homozygous Polled: Again, a homozygous polled bull will "breed true" and give a polled gene to each of his offspring. The polled gene is dominant to the horned gene, so all offspring from a homozygous polled bull will be polled.

SIMMENTAL BULLS MARKET ANALYSIS We wanted to share a “snapshot” over time about where the calf market has been in the past. The chart and sidebar below show month-by-month pricing from January 2010 through August 2015 for 550# feeder steers. To go back even farther, a few year average prices for Choice 450# Steer Calves: 1996-$64.10, 1999-$92.92, 2002-$100.90, 2005-$140.06 (Cattle-Fax Averages) Why are we showing you this information? Because even with the recent “realignment” since the June 2015 high price, we are still in a very good place in this market comparatively. If you are in this business for the long haul, as most of you are, and genetics, pounds, customer service and reputation are important to you, then we will continue to do all we can to help you capitalize on the superior product you produce.

2015 Average Prices: January $288.00 February $277.00 March $290.00 April $288.00 May $288.00 June $292.00 July $275.00 August $273.00 Source: USDA

It's pronounced "Joe-see-fee-awk" :)

Kayla married an amazing young man from Rozel, KS. Ty comes from a wonderful "bleed purple" KSU family. Kayla is teaching high school Biology and coaching volleyball and track at Larned High School, and Ty farms and ranches with his family.

Scarlet's tank top says says she has some really good news...She's going to be a big sister in January 2016! Her and her dad were trying to be serious in this photo, but soon afterward they both burst out laughing!

The Michaelis family will be growing in late March 2016. A "gender reveal" party immediately after our sale will let us know if it's going to be a boy or a girl. So stay and find out!

Customers and friends share stories with us... Deon & Becky Gocke, NE, have been cattle customers and friends since 2002. They have had a few select fall bulls in our sale for the past several years. Deon will be here sale day as always; track him down if you have questions about his three 2015 bulls.

Thanks to Zoetis, we enjoyed a KC game with customers Phil & Rhonda Perry Edna Elder feeds their Moser bull range cubes out of her hand

Back in 1996, Teresa & Don Schuyler (pictured above with Harry) bought their first Moser genetics-steer and heifer projects for their daughter Andrea. They became faithful bull customers, managing their fescue pastures in Jackson county to the utmost detail, and paying attention to every aspect and number in their beef production enterprise. In the spring of 2003, they purchased a set of 7 replacement heifers from Lisa's father, Paul Skoch. Lisa was AIing them in May 2003 when her father passed away, and so those females have always been near and dear to Don & Teresa (and Lisa!). In 2011, after Don was diagnosed with "Transverse Myelitis", we offered to manage the Schuyler cowherd. Don has fought back from near total paralysis to walking and helping again with their cows. "Old #73," (pictured above in the headgate on 10-6-15), is 1 of 4 of the original 7 Skoch females still in production for Schuylers. At 13 years of age, they have proven their worth. Working together and utilizing both Moser and Schuyler resources and labor, this set of females is now an ET coop herd for Moser Ranch.
