Since offering Boombox and Jumanji as our lot 1 bulls in 2020 - and their subsequent tremendous success - we have received so many compliments from breeders who say they just truly appreciate the opportunity to have access to be partners with us in our best upcoming young bulls. For the fall born offering, we are offering buyer’s choice half-interest of the two full brothers of Captain x 100. One is horned. One is polled. We have had tremendous interest in both - and numerous offers to purchase them privately at the ranch. So, in order to offer these genetics to the world - we are selling them here.

Modern Twist on Proven Cow Families
BRC 100/7, the dam of Lot 1, is likely the most renowned polled Brahman cow in the world. After she passed away in 2021, her impact will still be very prevalent but access to direct sons or daughters of 100 will be few and far between. 100 was the first and only polled National Champion female herself and cemented her name in history as the mother of Noble and Polled Phenom. These young bulls are sired by Captain - the bull who has taken the breed by storm because of his incredible phenotype, which brings the Jennessa cow family into the mix. These bulls are backed by Jennessa and 98 - two of BRC’s most proven cow families.
Bred to Make an Impact - A Bloodline of Champions
Tugboat Captain 125 is smooth polled and Captain America 128 is the horned brother. Great ones don’t just happen - they are results of years and years of planned breeding, careful selection, and building one generation after the next to always improve. These bulls 5-generation pedigree include: • 39 Register of Renown or Vanguard animals • 8 Houston Grand or Reserve Champion Bulls • 3 National Champion Bulls • 3 National Grand Champion Females • 1 Houston Grand Champion Female Name another bull selling this spring with that resume.
Current and Future Breeding Potential
These two bulls are a little different in the way they are put together, but definitely have one thing in common, they are both really good. BRC Tugboat Captain is the more shapely, expressively muscled bull of the pair, while Captain America is the bigger boned bull who puts together a show-stopping profile view. Let us not forget that fundamentally, both are extremely functional being sound made, excellent footed, and good in their sheaths. As a bonus, they both have the pigment to make them versatile for breeding to both red or grey cows with tremendous success.
A visual pedigree of the confidence of Lot 1
How Half-Interests Work
This lot is selling half-interest (50% ownership and 50% possession) in the buyers choice. Should the buyer wish to purchase half interest in both bulls, they may take the final bid price x 2. Selection must be made by June 5, 2021. If the bulls are collected as AI sires, BRC and new buyers will split all future income and semen collection expense 50/50. As an added incentive, Brahman Country Genetics LLC (our global semen sales company) will coordinate all semen sales and promotion on these tremendous young bulls!

Unique Pedigree, Proven Ancestors
Sired by 835/7 who is a JDH Compian son out of a 380/6 daughter. This bull was a past high seller in the Performance Bull Sale. As a herd sire at Ingram Angus, he was selected for his real world traits of low birth weight, moderate, easy fleshing, extremely sound, just a fault free type bull. Melody’s dam, 390/8 is a moderate framed, easy fleshing direct daughter of JDH Charley 590/6 who was a past high selling heifer calf in the 2016 Internet Sale. She is extremely productive, just as you would expect from the great Charley line. This is a rare pedigree that just isn’t offered very often.
Vintage, Timeless Breeding
There is always value in a little bit of a throwback pedigree. Names like Compian, Charley, Gregory and Karu just to name a few, stack up in her four generation pedigree. Numerically, she charts a very balanced EPD profile with 11 traits in the to 25% of the breed.
Current and Future Potential
We see Melody as a big time cow prospect because of her ample bone, width of base, and depth of body. Yet, she displays so much femininity while remaining extremely fluid in motion, which is why we think her potential is endless. June 1, 2021 at dvauction.com 5

Rarely does an August born heifer calf, who is selling first of June already come with a winning track record. Wonder is the very popular calf at side of the 2021 International Champion Female: BRC 805/8. She has already received much praise because of her phenotype, but genetically, she is extremely unique being out of 805/8 and sired by 788/8, which makes her double bred 380/6. Also, her paternal grand dam is a full sister to Noble, while her maternal grand dam is the great 775/7 donor cow who has already proven herself as a producer of champions.

Proof that real world cattle with carcass, udder, and foot quality can still turn heads in the show ring.
Current and Future Potential
BRC 101 is an extremely powerful, thick made female who does what is so hard in animal breeding - blending mass and performance while maintaining a lady-like look, strong topline, and smooth build. This female is a culmination of decades mating elite bulls to matriarch cows, and we think it shows. No shortcuts...just integrity, hard work, faith, and a little luck --- that is how Wonders are made. June 1, 2021 at dvauction.com

Dam of Lot 4 - 2015 International Grand Champion Brahman Female
Sire of Lot 4 - BRC’s 194/7, a bull with limited semen available, adding to the allure of Hot Blue Blaze.
Show Heifer Deluxe
Hot Blue Blaze comes from a collaboration with Steve, Nancy and Elle Martin at Wichita Ranch, original home of Captain. Blaze is a blending one of our all time great herd bulls (194/7) with their unforgettable 2015 International Champion, Miss V8 844/7. This beautiful profiling female never gives a bad look. She’s so feminine fronted, level topped, square built, and still stout made; which is why we think she’s destined for a show heifer.
Stacked Pedigree of the Elite of the Elite
194/7 and 844/7 have track records that speak for themselves in terms of individual show ring success and championship progeny. If we dig a little deeper though, and study back in pedigrees, Hot Blue Blaze brings in greats
like Liberty, Remington, Datapack, Charley, 700/3, Suva 203, Karu and Superstroke. This pedigree is bulletproof.
Current and Future Potential
Take her in the show ring, gather all the prizes, and then use her success on the halter to market her genetics moving forward. On top of her killer style, thickness, and a pedigree full of industry icons; she fuses phenotype and extra pigment with breed leading carcass figures. With a pedigree free of Elmo/Lawford, we think this female sets up perfectly to combine with Noble genetics. The Martin’s have a breeding philosophy of “always add to the top” and we think Hot Blue Blaze is a highlight female in this sale who will instantly stand at the top of any ranch in the world.

Royally Bred in True BRC Fashion
We could spend a day talking over this heifers pedigree. This is the first Dutton born at BRC. She combines so many of the great cows our herd has been built around with a modern twist. Being sired by Dutton, not only does she bring the iconic combo of the great Noble and matriarch female Boom Shaka Laka 21/8, but also her mother is the 835/7 donor cow who is the dam of our 160/8 herd bull we own with Arms Cattle, our 622/8 donor cow who was a Houston division champion, as well as many others.
Maternal Power on Both Sides
Oftentimes, the story is as important as the animal itself, and 114’s pedigree is stacked with great cows with storied production. Lady Lupita blends in two of the all time best females from BRC: 382/7 and 341/7 - two females who have been side by side their entires lives from the show ring to the pasture now as mature cows. Shortcut a few details, back in 2013, 341/7 was the favorite female on the show string that we had the highest hopes for at the International that year, but as fate would have it we also decided to load up 382/7 and take her to show because she was more moderate and something we thought that years judge may appreciate. 382/7 was selected International Champion that day, 341 was 2nd in class and Reserve Senior Champion behind her, and the rest is history. Both cows have gone on to do great things with 382/7 raising 21/8 who was two time International champion, and here recently 341/7 produced BRC Come on Eileen 75 female who was Reserve Calf Champion at the 2021 International show.
Current and Future Breeding Potential
BRC Lady Lupita is very impressive to look at. It is very hard to make cattle with this much natural depth of body and muscle mass, that maintain her level of femininity, smoothness, and look. She has a very bright future as a show heifer, and the look and pedigree of a future donor cow.
BRC’s all time greatest females stand behind Lot 5. A legend in the making.

Fresh and Different Pedigree for Polled Lines
Sired by 750/7, lot 6 is another example of the diversity of pedigrees in this group of sale heifers. Not only is this the opportunity to invest in polled genetics, but it brings 750 into the equation which makes this heifer an outcross to today’s more popular polled lines.
Power to Elevate or Jumpstart Any Polled Program
In the April 2021 Brahman Journal, BRC was featured as having the #1 polled bull and female in terms of show ring success (279 and 797). So while our numbers are small, the BRC polled program is known as the go-to source for excellence in polled cattle. This year, we have one polled heifer to sell and here she is. Her dam is one of the most popular polled cows for visitors who
come by the ranch because of her unique blend of look, performance, power and functionality. 120 exhibits a lot of the characteristics that paved the way for her mother to become a front pasture donor cow. The fact that she is out of the 98/6 cow family further cements her value to her new owner.
Current and Future Breeding Potential
We are very confident in Girl’s Got Rhythm 120. She has become a favorite at the barn for her combination of look and functionality. Her feminine front end ties into a smooth shoulder and gives her a very angular look. She’s also deep bodied, sound structured and very high quality. As a bonus to her function, she comes with some of her mother’s performance and stoutness. A great candidate for a polled show heifer and donor. June 1, 2021 at dvauction.com 13

Quality Breeding
The first Boomtown sired calf we have been able to offer and she has us very excited about that bull moving forward because this heifer is really nice. She is out of a beautiful, very functional female that Williams Ranch raised from a George x Superstroke daughter who has been doing an excellent job.
Excellent Genotype
Sired by Boomtown, 121 brings the 21/8 matriarch cow into her immediate pedigree. That value speaks for itself. She also carries the 100/7 cow from her sire side of the pedigree which goes to show that good cattle have good cow families backing them up. 121 is no exception to that. She has
generations of influencers in her pedigree and it’s expressed in her high end phenotype. A touch of Superstroke breeding is also an eye catcher.
Current and Future Breeding Potential
Here is an excellent opportunity to add a very attractive and functional cow prospect to your genetic pool with a modern, extremely marketable pedigree. Study her picture and video, this female has an elite look - especially for such a young age. She’s very upheaded, level, good pigmented, and just flat out high quality. This heifer brings extra growth to this group of sale heifers for those seeking a larger frame female. But, she complements her frame size with plenty of body and thickness. Trust that this female has tremendous upside and generating potential for her new owner.

Unique Mating from The Gulf Coast Brahman Mecca
This female exemplifies the functionality that is known from the Garrett Brahman herd. She is not only high quality, but she is a perfect outcross that so many of us need in the breed. This heifer is sired by 259/7 who built a reputation as a sire that made cattle good, functional and real world relevant. He was also the 2013 Reserve National Champion. On 123’s dam side, she brings genetics that are so unique and make this a huge opportunity for folks in the market for new, fresh bloodlines.
The Brahman Version of “Belly Draggers”
Study this heifers mothers picture. Look at the volume, the depth, the spring of rib, the natural capacity. Angus guys call these “Belly Draggers”
- but you don’t see this type too often in Brahman. We think this cow is one of the most unique we have seen. This female is absolutely massive bodied, moderate framed, tremendously easy fleshing, and just a downright good cow. Let’s not forget that Garrett Cattle have been known for their tremendous udder quality and fertility over many many years. This mating has us fired up.
Current and Future Breeding Potential
Little Miss Sunshine is a great example of excellence in strategic animal breeding at work. Only a November, the signs of her future are all there. Sound, moderate, big bodied, and easy fleshing. One of the most unique heifers in the offering, because she combines so many of the functional traits with still a really neat look and plenty of stoutness and power. June 1, 2021 at dvauction.com 17

The Famous BRC “Mystery Lot”
What Will It Be?
Login at 7:00 a.m. CST June 1st to find out.
Mollie came up with the concept of a “mystery lot” in our May 2020 sale, and it was a huge hit! That particular mystery lot was 2 units of semen on Dutton. In the fall sale, it was 2 units on BRC’s 160/8 meat wagon herd bull. This year, as of press time, we haven’t decided what it will be. Some ideas have been tossed around include half interest in a proven herd bull, selling a donor cow, some frozen embryos, semen, something with the Brahman beef, and a few other fun things. So, right now - it’s up in the air. Login at 7:00 a.m. on sale day to find out what this one will be!

After a few emails, Rachel recognized that Orrin was extremely serious about investing in only the best. Rachel typed, “Let me get you in touch with my husband, he is probably more knowledgeable than me.” And Orrin replied that his family business had plenty of smart, capable women in it and he was perfectly fine continuing to do the deal with me. That sentiment of respect for women in ranching and in business is something that has stuck with us from day one. That’s the kind of great people you’ll find at Ingram Angus.
We met about ten years ago, and both Steve and Brandon and Nancy and Rachel instantly hit it off as fast friends. We own 694 together, the 2013 Reserve National Champion Female. One year we even spontaneously bought the high selling heifer lot at Houston together. Through the decade, we have partnered together on many cattle deals, and each one always seems to be more enjoyable than the next. Last year, the Martin’s gave us an opportunity to buy into their famed bull - Captain - and the joy and excellence that Captain has brought both our herds has just been indescribable.
Ingram Angus operates a little over 3,000 acres in Tennessee, and serves as a leading Angus seedstock operation providing Angus bulls and females to beef producers throughout the southeast and the nation.
Over the last six years, the Ingram team has become some of our most trusted friends in the cattle business. We are proud to use their Angus bulls in our commercial herd - they do great in Texas. We even flushed 100/7 to one of their Angus bulls! We have traveled together, and love visiting their farm in Tennessee. We work together in managing their Brahman herd to maximize the quality they have invested in over the last six years. They are smart, savvy, business-minded ranchers who - like us - only accept excellence and are willing to put in the time, sweat, and effort to turn dreams into reality. We are proud to collaborate with the Ingram team on Lot 2. If you need Angus bulls for ranching in the south, we 100% recommend Ingram Angus. “Integrity is what we stand by: good quality people who deal with good quality cattle.” - Orrin Ingram, Owner, Ingram Angus

From sharing our love of cattle and ranching to enjoying family trips, family traditions, eating at good restaurants, riding around the pastures together for hours, laughing, and of course a good ol’ trip to South Texas Tack, the Martin family of Wichita Ranch are some of our most treasured friends.
Probably the coolest thing about our friendship is the friendship that our children have developed. When Elle, Mollie and Annie get together - these girls are setting the world on fire. These young ladies are as knowledgeable about Brahman cattle as any adults in the world. It’s fun to just sit back and listen to them talking about cattle, horses, and their dreams for the future. I think one of the keys to our strong friendship is that both of us are working hard to share a lifetime love of ranching with those we hold dear - our families. These dreams are more than just owning cattle. They’re a means of using land, animals, and passion to make exceptional memories and build your own family’s legacy for generations to come. “For many, many years, our family’s been in the cattle business and we’ve had a lot of relationships. The relationship we have with the Cutrer’s is a special one.” - Nancy Martin, Wichita Ranch

Williams Ranch @ Turkey Creek, Sugarland, Texas
Do you ever have those moments where someone says exactly what you need to hear at the exact moment you need it? Last May, Kevin Williams, owner of Williams Ranch @ Turkey Creek told us a scripture that has been one of our guiding statements in the BRC operations: “And let us not be weary in well doing; for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good to all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith. - Galatians 6:9-10. When you’re partners with people like Kevin and Ursula Williams, it’s just a joy. And while Kevin isn’t necessarily a cattleman by training, he has taken the Williams Ranch program and established it as a fault-free, functional program. He’s built a program that’ll rival any herd in the USA for consistency, uniformity, and functionality. For the last few years, we have collaborated together in sharing herd bulls like 194, and Boomtown. Kevin’s ranch is just up the road near Sugarland, and he is a rancher who’s doing everything right. He has built a female program of cows with exceptional fertility, great udders, gentle dispositions, easy fleshing ability, and cows that just flat do their job. But, each year, Kevin continues to raise the bar in his program by getting better. This year, we are partners together in two hot new AI sires - 542 and Independence 22.
Garrett Cattle Co., Danbury, Texas
On a cold rainy day in winter 2019, Garrett Harvey came and visited us. The weather was the only way we could get Garrett out of the fields. Sitting at our kitchen table, we mapped out a plan for working together in what we described as a “super collaborator.” But, this friendship goes way way further back than just 2019. Garrett’s great grandpa and Rachel’s grandpa have been lifelong friends. JT Garrett got into the cattle business in the mid 1940s. In the early 1940s, he formed a cattle partnership called “The Lazy 3” between JT Garrett (Garrett’s Paw Paw), Leon Locke, and Edgar Hudgins. Well, “The Lazy 3” hired Sloan Williams (Rachel’s Dadaw) as part of their working crew. Before he passed away, we spent most every Sunday at Dadaw’s house listening to old stories - and some of his favorites were memories from working the cow crew with three of his mentors. Dadaw also purchased many females through the years from Jacko and Nancy Garrett for his private herd. So a few years ago, the ‘next generation’ decided to team up. And, it’s been a blast. That’s actually why we chose the name “Little Miss Sunshine” for our first collaboration together. As Garrett described our partnership, ‘It’s happy, bright, peaceful, relaxing, and just plain easy.”
It’s friends like Kevin and Ursula that make life worthwhile. In another famous Kevin quote, “Friendship is like a really good pair of boots. They can go to the dance, the meetings, the stock show, through rain, the mud, even the fire. When they get worn, they can be polished and re-soled and feel brand new.”
In the last year, the highlight of our partnership has been co-owning Dutton together. The Dutton calves mated to Garrett’s cows were a home run. Garrett also bred 259 as a natural service sire in the summer of 2020, and 259 died peacefully at their ranch. Little Miss Sunshine is a result of that collaboration. Brandon, Garrett and Keaton have burned up the road from Boling to Danbury because it’s always so fun to see the new calves and think about the future.
Thank you Kevin and Ursula for your unforgettable friendship, and the opportunity to work together in something we both love so dearly - the passion for Brahman!
It is a true joy when young people can share such a burning passion for innovation, but still cherish the traditions and the work done by our heroes like PawPaw and Dadaw - who put both of us where we are today. June 1, 2021 at dvauction.com
