Focus on the Future 4th Annual Bull Sale
Sunday, March 7, 2021 1:00 pp.m. Baudette,, MN
Welcome Welcome all to our 4th Annual Production Sale. We have decided to call our annual sale “Focus on the Future.” With that, we want you to know that everything we have been doing here for the last several years is for you-our customers and long-time friends. All the decisions we make today, will have an impact on what happens tomorrow, next year, and far into the future. You can buy our bulls with confidence knowing that we have done our best to produce bulls that are easy fleshing, efficient on forage, and have built-in longevity. They excel for growth and carcass qualities, have great dispositions, and will produce excellent replacement females- qualities our cattle are well known for! These characteristics will help your operation excel far into the future! “Focus on the Future” We are very excited for this year’s sale as we have changed to a live and internet auction, so you can now either bid in person at the farm, on the internet through DVAuction, or call in your bids over the phone. Something that will stay the same is all of the great prizes we will be giving away from all of our generous sponsors! These include special buyers, as well as, attendee and kid’s drawings just for coming out to check out our program! As always, we like to grow our bulls for soundness and longevity, and monitor performance on a forage-based diet by raising all bulls without creep feed. With this system, some of the bulls selling reached actual weaning weights of 850 to over 875lbs. on just grass, milk, and mineral by September 12. This is also the 1st year that all bulls selling will have been Angus GS Genomic tested. We were very happy with the results that further back up their performance and verify their parentage. Whether you’re looking for calving ease, growth, or carcass bulls, or a great combination of everything, we have a good selection of bulls that should meet everyone’s needs. We are also offering some of the most complete son’s of Enhance and Magnitude to sell anywhere, with several well qualified stud candidates. As always, your welcome to come check out the cattle ahead of time. Just give me a call. You can also put in a bid if you can’t make it to the sale. If you have any questions about anything your welcomed to call me @ 218-556-3238. Thanks for checking us out and hope to see you sale day! Thanks and God Bless,
Dean, Tillie & Zach

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. Accuracy (ACC), is the reliability that can be placed on the EPD. An accuracy of close to 1.0 indicates higher reliability. Accuracy is impacted whether the animal has a genotype and the number of progeny and ancestral records included in the analysis. Calving Ease Direct (CED), 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. Birth Weight (BW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Weaning Weight (WW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Residual Average Daily Gain (RADG), feed efficiency expressed in pounds per day, is a predictor of a sire’s genetic ability for postweaning gain in future progeny compared to that of other sires, given a constant amount of feed consumed. Yearling Weight (YW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Yearling Height (YH), is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling height, expressed in inches, compared to the that of other sires. Scrotal Circumference (SC), expressed in centimeters, is a predictor of the difference in transmitting ability for scrotal size compared to that of other sires.
Maternal Milk (Milk), is a predictor of a sire’s genetic merit for milk and mothering ability 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. Mature Weight (MW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the difference in mature weight of daughters of a sire compared to the daughters of other sires. Mature Height (MH), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the difference in mature height of a sire’s daughters compared to daughters of other sires. MANAGEMENT Docility (DOC), is 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. Claw Set (Claw), is expressed in units of claw-set score, a lower EPD is more favorable, indicating a sire will produce progeny with more symmetrical, even and appropriately spaced toes. Foot Angle (Angle), is 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. Pulmonary arterial pressure EPD (PAP), is expressed in millimeters of Mercury (mmHg), with a lower EPD being more favorable indicating a sire should produce progeny with a lower PAP score to decrease the risk of progeny contracting high altitude disease most commonly experienced at 5,500 ft or greater in elevation.
CARCASS Carcass Weight (CW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the differences in hot carcass weight of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Marbling (Marb), is expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling MATERNAL score of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Heifer Pregnancy (HP), is a selection tool to increase the probability or chance of Ribeye Area (RE), expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in a sire’s daughters becoming pregnant as first–calf heifers during a normal breeding ribeye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. season. A higher EPD is more favorable. Fat Thickness (Fat), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in Calving Ease Maternal (CEM), is expressed as a difference in percentage of external fat thickness at the 12th rib (as measured between the 12th and 13th ribs) of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. daughters. It predicts the average ease with which a sire’s daughters will calve as first-calf heifers when compared to daughters of other sires.
$VALUE INDEXES $Value Indexes, reported in dollars per head, are multi-trait economic selection indexes where a higher values suggest more profit when comparing two individuals. Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M), expressed in dollars per head, predicts profitability differences in progeny from conception to weaning by decreasing mature cow size and improving docility, foot structure and fertility while maintaining weaning weights consistent with current production. Weaned Calf Value ($W), expressed in dollars per head, provides the expected difference in future progeny preweaning performance from birth to weaning. Cow Energy Value ($EN), is expressed in dollar savings per cow each year due to lower cow maintenance energy requirements (due to lactation and body size) with a larger number being more favorable. Feedlot Value ($F), expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for postweaning feedlot merit (growth and feed efficiency) compared to progeny of other sires assuming producers retain ownership of cattle and sell on a carcass weight basis. Grid Value ($G), expressed in dollars per carcass, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for carcass grid merit, including quality and yield grade attributes, compared to progeny of other sires. Beef Value ($B), expressed in dollars per carcass, represents the expected average differences in the progeny postweaning performance and carcass value compared to progeny of other sires. This index assumes commercial producers wean all male and female progeny, retain ownership of these animals through the feedlot and sell on a carcass merit grid. Combined Value ($C), an index, expressed in dollars per head, includes all traits that make up both $M and $B with the objective that commercial producers will replace 20% of their breeding females per year with replacement heifers retained within their own herd. The remaining cull heifer and steer progeny are then assumed to be sent to the feedlot where the producers retain ownership of those cattle and sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid.
