Rockin R Simmentals 11th Annual Production Sale

Page 1


Rockin’ R

Welcome!

Welcome to our 2026 production sale!

This past year has been a good one for the cattle industry. Hopefully, things will continue favorable for a while longer.

We have many things to be thankful for this year. Michelle got her first heifer calf after five bulls out of her favorite cow. I am recovering well after breaking my back in a car accident.

We had twice as many heifers born as bulls in 2025. So this year we are offering 10 bulls for sale. There are 4 purebred and 6 Simmental cross bulls, along with 6 bred heifers and 8 bred cows in our 2026 offering.

We strive to remain at about 30 to calve each year so you can expect more bred heifers in the 2027 sale.

Every bull and bred heifer in the sale has been genomically tested - GGP 100k.

All their EPDS reflect this improved accuracy to aid you in your selection process. Every bred animal has been ultrasound for pregnancy status.

Should you wish to look over the offering, or need any help understanding the information please call or stop by anytime.

Thank you for your interest in our cattle. Please plan to join us in person or view online on February 18th.

Sincerely,

Rockin’ R Simmentals, Larry & Michelle Tourdot N1504 County Highway K Mauston, WI 53948 (608)432-2853 (c) / (608)253-5025 (h)

Announcements

Announcements made sale day and from the auction block during the sale take precedence over printed material associated with this sale. Anyone attending this sale attends at their own risk. Breeders or any of the sale staff will not be held responsible for any personal injury while attending this sale.

EPDs

EPDs in this catalog, for all animals, are from the American Simmental Association on January 19, 2026. Every bull in the 2026 offering has Genomic Enhanced EPDs. Adding a DNA test to your decision is like knowing…

• 25+ calving ease scores

• 22 birth weights

• 25+ weaning weights

• 25+ yearling weights

• Stayability/Productivity records on 15 daughters

• 6 carcass weights

• 10 marbling scores

• 8 ribeye area measurements

Terms & Conditions

We guarantee all bulls to be breeders and we reserve the right to test any bull in question as a non-breeder for at least 180 days before making an adjustment. If the bull is declared a sound breeder by a competent veterinarian, the bull will be returned to the buyer at the buyer’s expense. In the case an adjustment is required it will be made with a replacement of equal value to the animal in question, credit towards the purchase of another animal or return of the purchase price.

Each animal becomes property and therefore is also the risk of the purchaser after it is sold. We guarantee the cattle to be healthy sale day.

We guarantee all sight unseen purchases. Call ahead of time and we will go over the offering. You can leave a bid with us or a representative. You will be treated as if you are here at the sale.

All cattle sell under the terms and conditions of the American Simmental Association, which may be viewed online at, tinyurl.com/asasaleterms Certificates of registry will be supplied by the seller.

Each bull will be sold to the buyer with 100% ownership and semen rights.

Herd Health

All the bulls were calfhood vaccinated with Alpha 7/MB-1. At turn out they were treated with Long Range. Pre-weaning shots were Bovi-Shield Gold 5 and Ultrabac 7/Somubac. At weaning they were boosted with Bovi-Shield Gold 5 and given One Shot. Post weaning they received their second Ultrabac/Somubac and were injected with Valcor.

The females are all OCV for Bangs. Pre-breeding they received Bovi-Shield Gold FP 5VL5. At turnout all were given Long Range. In the fall all were boosted with Triangle 10HB and given Valcor. The heifers were given ScourGuard 4KC in late December. On January 18th the heifers received their booster of ScourGuard 4KC.

Bull Buyers Quick Guide to EPDs

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. For example, if sires A and B have EPDs of +10 and -5, a 15-unit difference would be expected in their progeny (moving from -5 to +10 yields 15 units). Key to using EPDs is knowing in what units they are expressed. For example, if the above case referred to weaning weight EPDs, sire A would be expected to sire 15 pounds more weaning weight than sire B. If calving ease was the trait, sire A would be expected to sire 15 percent more unassisted births in first-calf heifers; in other words, if sire B sired 30 assists in a group of 100 heifers, we would expect sire A to require 15 assists. A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s EPDs rank him relative to other bulls in the breed. For more detailed information about EPDs and $ indexes, visit www.simmental.org. Listed below are the units in which ASA EPDs are expressed:

All-Purpose Index (API): Dollars per cow exposed under an all-purposesire scenario. (See $ Indexes for more details.)

Back Fat (BF): Inches of carcass backfat at 475 days.

Birth Weight (BW): Pounds of birth weight.

Calving Ease (CE): Percent of unassisted births when used on heifers.

Carcass Weight (CW): Pounds of carcass weight at 475 days.

Docility (DOC): Percent of offspring receiving a disposition score of 1 (docile).

Maternal Calving Ease (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in firstcalving daughters.

Milk (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk.

Marbling (MRB): Carcass marbling score at 475 days.

Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk and growth.

Ribeye Area (REA): Square inches of carcass ribeye at 475 days.

Stayability (STAY): Percent of daughters remaining in the cowherd at six years of age.

Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario. (See TI for more details.)

Warner-Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF): Pounds of force required to shear a rib-eye steak.

Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight.

Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight.

Yield Grade (YG): Carcass yield grade score at 475 days.

$ Indexes: Though EPDs allow for the comparison of genetic levels for many economically important traits, they only provide pieces of the economic puzzle. This is where $ indexes come in. Through well-conceived, rigorous mathematical computation, $ indexes blend EPDs and economics to estimate an animal’s overall impact on integrated commercial production. The same technology that led to the dramatic progress in swine, poultry and dairy genetics over the last several decades was used to develop the following $ indexes:

All-Purpose Index (API): Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd (bred to both Angus first-calf heifers and mature cows) with the portion of their daughters required to maintain herd size retained and the remaining heifers and steers put on feed and sold grade and yield.

Terminal Index (TI): Evaluates sires for use on mature Angus cows with all offspring put on feed and sold grade and yield.

Using API and TI: First, determine which index to use; if you are keeping replacements use API, if not, use TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference between bulls. (As described above, index units are in dollars per cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth compared to another. Put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a +50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr.=$6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed. For more detailed information about EPDs and $ indexes, visit: www.simmental.org

Important disclaimer: DO NOT compare index values of purebreds of different breeds, hybrids of different breed composition or purebreds with hybrids — our system was not developed to make valid comparison among these groups. Therefore, you must first determine the breed and breed composition appropriate for your herd and use index values to compare animals within that population.
