★★ Foundation was the lead-off $105,000 top-selling bull of our 2012 sale, where he sold to a syndicate of some of the most progressive Angus breeders in the nation and is a featured Genex Cooperative sire. As you look through the sale offering you will find the Foundation cattle have tremendous growth and eye appeal while combining superior maternal statistics. Foundation daughters that are now in production exhibit terrific udder quality and maternal characteristics. If you are after pounds and growth with a fresh genetic combination, look close at these Foundation sons.

★★ Aviator was the $77,000 top-selling bull of our 2013 sale where he sold to Poplar Meadows Angus, Houston, B.C. With over 120 progeny on the ground in the U.S. and Canada he has proven himself to be one of the supreme calving-ease bulls in the breed that transmits adequate growth and eye appeal into his progeny. Aviator takes the work out of calving heifers or high birth EPD cows! He is what our commercial producers have demanded; guaranteed calving ease and rapid growth to weaning. As the data supports, Aviator sons will rank in the top 5% of the breed for CED, BW, YW and $Wean values. We plan to continue using Aviator as we feel he has a lot to offer. -Semen is available through ORIgen, Cattle Visions and ABS.

★★ Registry was selected for use in our herd from the 2013 Schaff Angus Valley Sale, where he was a $90,000 sale feature. He offers a unique pedigree that is outcross to most bloodlines and was produced from the famed SAV Madame Pride 0075, who records over $1.4 million in direct progeny sales. Registry is described as a unique outcross, calving-ease bull and presents authentic Angus breed character, natural thickness, abundant muscle and superior foot quality. We are very well pleased with his first calf crop, his progeny are very complete, thick made and docile, thus Registry ranks in the top 1% of all current Angus sires for Docility EPD.

We purchased our first Musgrave Bull in 2012 and have returned each year because of the tremendous bull offering, the solid group of cows that produce these bulls, and the added value of impressive carcass data.

The bulls do what we anticipate, producing consistently low birth weights, good growth, sound, functional cattle with eye appeal and good temperaments.

The cattle are great but the family and customer service has been second to none.

The cows selling represent a cross section of our herd. From a cow that raised a $145,000 bull, to a cow that has only raised a good market calf. Two years ago a cow sold for $6,500 and raised the Reserve Champion Bull at the 2015 National Western Bull Sale Show.

We are retaining all of our top heifer calves and will now be offering more cows than in the past. We think you’ll appreciate these ladies!

Breeding Guarantee We guarantee that all bulls sold through the “Pick’em In Pike” Sale are fertile to the best of our knowledge. Bulls selling for more than $3,000 sell with a breeding guarantee. If a bull is found to be infertile during the first breeding season, we will provide a satisfactory replacement (if available), or issue a credit equal to the bulls purchase price minus the salvage value of $2,000. All cows selling with calves or examined safe in calf will carry their own breeding guarantee.

We would suggest that normal care needs is given to these cattle and particularly that the bulls are not allowed to get too thin. It is good management if your bull is taken away from cows, and reconditioned, between breeding seasons. All claims MUST be made by September 1, 2015. Rest assured if, you have a problem we will do our best to make it right.

– $W and $B Index - Which one do I use? –

Simply explained: If you are selling your calves at weaning and retain replacement females, or background cattle, $Wean has more economic impact on you than $Beef. For those who retain ownership and finish your calves, $Beef will have a great economic impact on you. Keep in mind that both indexes are multi-trait indexes and combine many traits of economic importance. All cattle are eventually harvested so it is still important to incorporate both traits. If the next link in the chain profits with your calves, they are likely to continue paying a premium for those genetics.

We have a great selection of bulls that well exceed breed average for these indexes.

Current Breed Average for $W is +36.35 and $B is +84.61 The following information comes from various articles written by American Angus Association staff.

A WORD ON $W Ask an experienced cow-calf producer to identify the characteristics of a profitable beef cow and you will probably get a response like this: reproductively sound, calves easily, transmits rapid early growth, enough milk (but not too much), raises an above average calf year after year, moderate mature size, reduced feed energy needs. Cows meeting these requirements will generate more profit, because they do most everything right.

feed and consumption expenses, because faster gaining cattle are typically more feed efficient. $G has quality grade and yield grade components, expressed in dollars per head. Three-year rolling averages for these premiums and discounts are comparable to many industry grids to date. Although some of these premiums may seem conservative with changes seen in the Choice/Select spread, the use of a rolling average provides continuity in the $Values from on genetic evaluation to the next.

A TOOL FOR THE COW HERD Above average outputs (pounds of calf weaned) coupled with average or below average feed inputs are sure to improve the bottom line. But is it even possible to create a cow herd that gets so many things right? Pipe dream or achievable task? Research using the AAA database indicates that it can be done and the $W is the right tool for the job. If your quest is to build a productive and profitable cow herd, the Association’s bio-economic index called weaned calf value or $W, can help you reach that goal.

The EPDs used in $G are marbling, ribeye and fat from the Carcass EPDs.

Weaned Calf Value ($W), an index expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for pre-weaning merit. $W includes both revenue and cost adjustments associated with differences in birth weight, weaning direct growth transmitted to the calf, maternal milk, and mature cow size.

If you select for higher $W animals, the results will generally be more easily growth, moderate mature size, above average (though typically not extreme) milk, and heavier calf weaning weights. Higher $W females get these things right and are constructed in a more desirable package.

USING $W AS A SELECTION TOOL Not every high $W cow will be stamped out of a cookie-cutter mold, of course. $W can and should be used as a genetic selection tool to help build increased profit potential into a cow herd. It will pay producers to pursue higher $W cattle, while at the same time keeping a sharp eye on other individual traits and EPDs, and $Values they deem important in their operations. Doing so can help you build a cow herd that does most everything right.

HOW TO USE FEEDLOT VALUE ($F), GRID VALUE (G) AND BEEF VALUE ($B) In contrast to $W, the Feedlot ($F), Grid ($G) and Beef ($B) $Values are terminal indexes, in that no maternal components are included. These Indexes assume all calves go to market and no replacement females are retained. All of these indexes are reported in dollars per head and can be used to compare animals on how future progeny are expected to perform for post-weaning feedlot and carcass merit.

The $F and $G include revenue and expense components in their derivation and are pulled together to form $B. $F is strictly post-weaning feedlot merit where Yearling Weight EPD along with its relationship to Weaning Weight EPD are key genetic components. Genetics for gain generates revenue. Then the indexes include adjustments for

$B is an overall $Value for post-weaning feedlot and carcass value. It combines $F and $G as a selection tool for quality, red meat yield and pounds produced. The $B is not simply the sum of $F and $G. $Values are business-minded and in the language of economics. They have a great deal to offer the commercial bull buyer in terms of providing a multi-trait selection tool. It is important to remind Angus bull buyers these are one of various tools they use to make their operations successful. Selection indexes will continue to become more widely accepted across the seedstock industry as a means to identify genetics for use in commercial program.

What are EPDs? Average EPDs Angus (Non-Parent Bulls) CED +5, BEPD +1.8, WEPD +49, YEPD +86, RADG +.18, Scrotal +.81, Doc +12, Milk +23, CW +30, Marb +.49, RE +.45.

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.

If you do not have heifers to breed and just need a bull or cows that have calved before, most Angus bulls are acceptable for use on mature cows from a birth weight standpoint.

Weaning Weight EPD - is a prediction of a bull’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny. For example, Bull A has a Weaning Weight EPD of +60 pounds and Bull B has a Weaning Weight EPD of +40 pounds. At weaning, Bull A’s calves will average 20 pounds heavier.

Yearling EPD - Yearling Weight EPD takes into account both pre-weaning and post weaning growth. Yearling weight is the most heritable of all growth traits. You can expect bulls with high yearling EPDs to produce fast gaining calves. If Bull A has a Yearling EPD of +90 and Bull B has a Yearling Weight EPD of +60, Bull A’s calves will average 40 pounds heavier than Bull’s at one year of age.
