CHAIN REACTION

Sire: Eye Candy Dam: Fear This Breed: Maintainer DOB: 3/3/12 BW: 87 lbs.

THC/PHAF Raised by: Cache Creek Cattle Co., NE Owned by: Trausch Farms Semen: $30

His name says it all. Chain Reaction is the result of consistent genetics being passed on from one generation to the next dating back to Eye Candy and Naughty Pine. He was one of the highest selling club calf bull prospects of 2012 commanding $67,000 for 3/4 interest! He possesses many of the same qualities as his predecessors yet in a refreshing unique package. Sound structure, unbelievable hair and above average bone make him a sure shot to produce what the show cattle industry demands. His mother hasn’t missed in 3 years... he’s no accident!

Sire: Walks Alone Dam: Eye Candy’s Full Sister DOB: 3/1/12 BW: 90 lbs.

THC/PHAF Bred by: Trausch Farms Raised by: Depies/Goehring, WI Owned by: Trausch Farms Semen: $30

Every once in a while a bull comes along that creates an impact and Sugar Rush after being displayed in Denver showed the world that he is what everyone has been waiting for! Combining Walks Alone who needs no introduction with a full sister to the ever popular Eye Candy truly created a genetic masterpiece! He is built with such explosive power yet remains soft middled and sound with great bone and a big foot. He possesses an incredible amount of hair which is no surprise given his pedigree. This is one that will be a “cow changer” and we recommend using him on females needing to be powered up that could also use added bone mass and hair. The stage is set and he holds a very bright future so make sure to be a part of what is to come!

Sire: Fast Freddy Dam: Ice Pick Cross DOB: 2/6/2012 BW: 86 lbs.

THC/PHAF Breeder: K & K Cattle Co., PA Owners: Trausch Farms & K & K Cattle Co. Semen: $25

Take a close look at this Fast Freddy son and you will notice he carries and extremely wide based build and an incredible amount of shear power and stoutness through his hip and top. This bull comes to us out of the very first calf crop from his sire and proves the consistency of Trausch Farms genetics. He has a shot more Maine in his pedigree which enables him to produce registerable calves as an added bonus. Definitely a refreshing breeding piece that offers an ability to add performance and power to a cowherd.

Sire: Eye Candy Dam: Char Cross DOB: March 10, 2012 BW: 84 lbs.

THC/PHAF Breeder: Sugar Creek Farms, Iowa Owners: Trausch Farms & Lonnie Sievers, IA Semen: $25

This smokey Eye Candy son we feel is what our sire line-up has been needing in order to offer our customers what they have been asking for. He was by far the best Charolais influence bull in the yards at Denver this year and became very well recieved. This is a bull that will produce those colored cattle that are becoming popular to sell and with an outcross mother it enables him to be bred to a larger variety of pedigrees. Structurally correct, stout featured and of course has the Eye Candy hair which all together makes him a very well rounded package.

Here he is folks...the new king of the south! Solid Gold is one of the most prolific bulls in the business for producing slick shear cattle that win and this son we feel could be his successor! His pedigree gets even better when you analyze his mother coming from the famed Hoo Doo operation.

He just offers so much in such a complete package. It’s hard to poke a hole in him.

THC/PHAF Owners: Trausch Farms & O’Kief Club Calves Semen: $25

RICO

Truly a crowd favorite in the yards in Denver 2012. It was said by many who saw him that he is the most complete bull on display. Big boned, big footed, motley faced, and super hairy and loads of style. What more could you want in a bull? His dam is truly a diva among prominent donors at Larry O’Kief’s. He has mated this great donor to all the industry favorites, but Jawbreaker is the one that puts it all together. He’s just so complete and stylish you can’t miss with him.

THF/PHAF Semen: $25

Calving Ease!

One of the most unique maternal bulls we have ever had the chance to own and promote! This bull has a pedigree that will produce all kinds of females that we anticipate will be very popular for years to come. With I-80 semen in short supply and Maximus being deceased, Pillow Talk will put both of these female producing pedigrees in one complete package! This one has all kinds of hair and bone and look so try him... you won’t be dissapointed!

PIlLOW TALK

The blonde bombshell. Cattlemen from all walks of life fell in love with 90 Proof in Denver 21012.

He is just so eye appealing. He possesses the great ability to produce great show calves as well as awesome replacement breeding stock. With that show steer look, 90 Proof was such a hit with everyone who saw him, that ABS picked him up right away in Denver. “This one should make the slick shear steers we need in Texas” as said by a reputable cattle producer. While another cattleman from Wyoming said, “he is more interested in the females his bull could produce.” This bull just hits all aspects of the cattle industry. Whether it’s breeding cattle or show worthy livestock we feel this dual registered individual brings a lot of quality to the table and will produce the right kind for todays times.

One of the most exciting Maine-Anjou bulls we have ever come across! This was the high selling bull in the Bushy Park Farms club calf bull sale and it was for a good reason... he is not like anything else on the market when you analyze his build. His mother is a purebred Maine cow originating out of Canada with a different pedigree than you will find anythwere else. If you want huge bone and foot size with hair that will hang off every inch of your calves, then this is a must use sire for your herd. Not to mention that every calf out of him is a paperable MaineTainer. He is tested double clean and has a 72lb. birth weight! We feel he is a bull that lots of our customers have been looking for us to provide them, so here he is. We expect great things from this one!

Carpe Diem is one of the most versatile bulls we have ever come across. He works so well on heifers - just ask Greg Kroupa, Kris Black, Ryan Went and many other top cattlemen across the country. He will produce champion steers, heifers and high quality replacement females. If this isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reason enought to breed to him, his daughters are becoming some of the top donors for many club calf producers.

Hired Man quite possibly might be the one we all have been waiting for. To top it off, we have seen quite a few baldy calves out of him. Hired Man calf reports have been between 85 to 95 lbs. and are very consistent. Hired Man works great on Heat Wave and Heat Seeker cows, as well as Angus and Shorthorn cows. We’ve found that using Hired Man on those shorter spined cows that need to be powered up seems to be working the best. He has sired many great bulls and show calves across the country and his calves have topped a lot of sales. There is no where to go but up with this bull. He is definitely living up to his reputation of being one of the great sires.

THF/PHAC Owners: Trausch Farms, Cattle Hill Farms, Hara Farms, Riley Farms & Steve Homerding

This bull is huge footed and big boned for being double clean and throws extremely good hair as well. His sire is an Ali out of Smilin’ Bob’s mother called Big Dog that has been a very consistent producer for Gartens in Kansas. If you are looking for a consistent bull with a different twist to pedigree this one will raise show cattle that are easy to sell all day long... he’s already proven that!

Semen: $25

Frank is a moderate framed Irish Whiskey son out of a world class cow similar to Hairietta. This bull should be a no miss for anyone. Frank’s first three calf crops have been high sellers across the country. He is so very consistent and the no miss genetics that fit very well into club calf herds.

Frank will add bone, power, and mass that will work well on your TH Carrier cows as he is TH Free. We love this bull and know you won’t be disappointed in what he can do for you.

Ego Trip

Sire: N. Improvement Dam: Habanero Breed: MaineTainer /Chi Reg. #: 381867 DOB: 1/8/07 BW: 76 lbs.

THF/PHAF Owners: Trausch Farms, Rowe, Ferguson & Shatto Semen: $25 A bull all of us have been waiting for. His dam is the $82,000 valued record-setting top seller of the 2005 Frozen Gold Sale. She is a foundation Habanero X Draftpick cow that surpassed the $150,000 mark in sales. Northern Ice has a sister named PUPS Dream Girl who is one popular young lady and already off to a good start in her early career with a Tyson heifer who sold for $6,000 this past fall and a flush that sold for $7,2000. Northern Ice calves come small, with vigor and grow rapidly. What a calving ease bull in a TH free and PHA free package whose calves become stout, hairy and sound that can be sued in clubby, maternal or commercial herds. He will produce progeny that will work and be profitable. Show’em, sell’em or keep’em - you won’t go wrong. Did we mention proven?

“We used Ego Trip exclusively on first calf heifers and had nine calves. 6 calves sold for show prospects for an average of $2,800. 2 calves have been retained as replacement heifers and only 1 calf went to the sale barn. This year we used Ego Trip on all our first calf heifers and so far Semen: $25 have had ten calves and birth weights have ranged from 55-75lbs. Ego Trip will throw a clean front end, square hip, good bone and sill soften them up in the middle. Our experience is that Ego Trip calves just like his sire Ali. ” - Chad Rieck, Rieck Club Calves, Creston, Iowa

THC/PHAF Semen: $25

If power is what you want, welcome to the Gun Show. This son of Naughty Pine has power through and through backed by the infamous donor cow, Bailey (Whasssup daughter). He is a full sib to the Vickland heifer sold in our 06/07 sale that was a many time champion for them and went on to be an integral part of their herd. This combination does not miss and Truth Hurts proves that yet again.

This bull offers so much power, muscle, hair and bone. He is a sure bet, count on it!

This bull just may be the one we have been expecting Hired Man to produce and it’s no surprise. Hired Man breeds so consistently, he was sure to produce a son even better than he is. And, we believe this is the one of several. He is big boned, sound moving, huge hipped and freak necked. Combine that with loads and loads of hair. The bull is natural and this picture was taken just five days after he was weaned out of the stock field. He has a wonderful disposition and I just can’t say enough about this bull. He’s just that inmpressive.

Here’s a full sib to Master of Puppets and Monopoly. Same genetics, tremendously predictable bulls. Hurley does not disappoint. He’s big boned, big footed Semen: $25 and loads of style.

Hurley can be bred exactly like his full sibs.

He was turned out to pasture at Trausch Farms last spring and got the job done. We are very excited to see his calves later this spring. The bull will not disappoint.

Here is a blue roan bull with all the power in the world. His first calves are on the ground and already winning shows as feeder calves. They were all very marketable, nothing went unsold, with a $3,500 average of the cow. His mother is sired by the great DF Vegas who produced the Grand Champion ShorthornPlus female for the Aegerter Family. Hannibal makes Blueberry Wine a dual registerable bull. You won’t be disappointed with the progeny of this bull.

This simmental bull is destined to be a breed changer. Cookie cutter calves is a term we associate with Muhammad’s calves. His progeny are long fronted with tons of hair. This TH & PHA Free bull is being used by many breeders with carrier cows from border to border. Plus, he’s a great out cross for Dream on genetics.

Muhammad has sired the Grand Champion Pen of Three Percentage Heifers, 2007 NWSS and the Reserve Grand Champion Pen of Three Percentage Heifers, 2008 NWSS. Muhammad’s daughters are making awesome cows, with beautiful udders, consistent birth weights and style to burn. This bull can do it all, from the show ring to the pasture. He is the one to try for 2013. Plus, Muhammad’s sire, Mr. MT and his dam, Nichols Julia F34 have both written their success stories right here. Both his sire and dam have passed on the ability to transmit genetic success at a highly consistent rate in both male and female progeny.

This bull puts a big foot, bone and loads of hair in his calves. Cowboy Troy has been a very successful part of the Trausch Farm breeding program, as well as many top herds across the country. Finally, here is a Purebred Angus bull that has the ability to make show steers on clubby cows.
