P

lease accept our invitation to join us at Mound Creek Ranch for our Annual Bull Sale and Registered Female Offering. Since moving to present ranch headquarters this sale will be the 11th bull sale annually held at Mound Creek. In total we have been in the registered seedstock business for 26 years over which time we have seen countless changes take place in the cattle business. We realized years ago we had to become more accountable, not only to our program, but more importantly to our friends in the producers side of this industry.

The purpose of our genetic program and the tireless approach to this effort is our never-ending quest to raise the best beef bulls in the country.

Beef bulls! Don’t you love the sound of that? Beef bulls! Bulls whose sole purpose is to positively affect the profitability of our customer’s programs by influencing their ability to raise ever increasing pounds of beef in an efficient, economical, and cost effective manner while doing so with fewer annual inputs.

In evaluating our genetic progress since 2006 we have increased our adjusted weaning weights by 85 lbs., our adjusted yearling weights over 100 lbs., scrotal circumference by 1.5 cm., ribeye size by nearly two square inches, and IMF value by 1.4%. During this same time period we placed our cow herd in a spring-only 75 day calving season and placed a zero tolerance on females that fail to breed, develop structural and skeletal problems, present udder quality issues, and are substandard in overall calf raising value. Most importantly we put the cow herd on an accountability watch list in forage intense environment removing those cows from our producing herd that prove substandard in paying their annual fare. Their resulting sons, and our future sale bulls, are bombarded with our ever increasing standards for calving ease, increased performance, testicle size, early puberty, carcass merit, structural soundness, fleshing ability, stayability, maternal value, and the list goes on. Our standards are the highest in the country to insure, and assure, the bulls we offer meet the above stated objective.

Would be pretty easy to coast a little since our annual bull sales in Texas and Georgia have been highly successful every year since their inception. Our friends and customers seem to appreciate our continuing efforts and our bulls seem to be doing their intended job. We will continue pushing the window for true genetic improvement in the areas of calving ease, performance, early fertility, soundness, carcass merit, and maternal strength. As the saying goes, we can sure keep doing what we’ve been doing. We have developed a strong program by adding more genetic value as compared to our competitors. Simply put, we know we can keep adding more and more of those valuable pounds. However, continuing to do the same old thing has never been good enough for our program so it’s time to chase that next genetic horizon.

As has always been the case we have never looked for short term solutions to long term problems. Always tried to crystal ball this business looking five to ten years in the future when making breeding and program decisions today. Must do more with less! We know we can make more pounds, however we are now embarking upon a program to help us identify the TRUE ECONOMY OF MAKING THOSE POUNDS. We had to change our bull development to some degree compared to the past. However, very exciting to truly measure genetic differences for economy and efficiency of making more pounds of beef.

Residual Feed Intake (RFI) is defined as the difference between actual feed intake and feed intake predicted on the basis of the animal’s daily gain and maintenance requirements for its body weight. For a given period of time every bull in this sale noted with an RFI, DMI, and R InX in its performance line was tested at Genetic Development Center just south of College Station, Texas in a feeding environment that measured every bite or pound of feed consumed against every pound of gain. The calculation is very complex because mathematical statistics are used to determine the RFI value from thousands and thousands of measurements per bull. A more negative RFI is favored as this indicates less feed intake for given weight and gain. These measurements also allow the computation of daily Dry Matter Intake (DMI) noted in lbs. consumed per day. Finally, R InX is an index given as a percentage above or below the group average calculated using the RFI value, Average Daily Gain during test period, and Adjusted Yearling Weight. A higher R InX indicates a more desirable overall ranking based within the test group.

As in making genetic change for any trait the use of RFI in our selection program will be well thought out, well designed, and considered of high importance. We know we can select for improved RFI without affecting the genetics of production. We know that selecting for improved RFI in the female herd has proven to translate to improved economy and cow efficiency in a pasture environment. We know that selecting for improved RFI can increase net dollars returned in the feedlot. We know that more efficient animals consume less feed or forage thereby allowing more animal units on a fixed unit of land. We are convinced the economy of being in the cattle business has to be addressed from a genetic design point of view and therefore the economy of efficiency is the next frontier to be tackled. We must figure out how to do more with less!

Certainly our program will never be based on single trait selection. Never has and never will. Therefore we will continue to improve the genetic pounds you purchase from Mound Creek. Improved weaning and yearling weight measures will continue to be a key factor in our herd sire selections when blended with predictable calving ease, maternal traits, and carcass merit. And yes, with RFI as well. One trait will never create the perfect bull but all traits working together has a chance.

We sell beef by the pound and there is strong opinion and evidence that a pound of beef will be worth more in 2013 than ever before. Our bulls will sire more of those valuable pounds than you will find elsewhere. You will not have to go through page after page of hype in this catalog designed to convince you. The measured information is the best we have ever presented and the bulls top to bottom are the best we have raised to date. They sell themselves.

As always, we give thanks to God as we are blessed to be in agriculture where we get to feel a good horse underneath, see calves born, and the beauty of a great sunset. We invite you to be with us on March 15 and 16. Good food and good friends will be the normal for this time frame.

If you like shotgun sports bring your gun, let us know, and plan to enjoy the fun of our clay target range at Four Oaks Shooting Sports on March 17. Look forward to seeing you in March.

Registration Number: Bulls noted with “R” number are Registered Brangus.

Those noted with a “UB” number are Ultra-Blacks, indicating they are a Brangus-Angus blend. “AX” recorded bulls are appendix registered purebred Brangus that have non-typical Brangus color pattern.

Polled/Scurs: Denotes bulls that are either smooth polled or have the presence of scurs or slick spots. Those bulls noted as “scurs” typically have had scurs removed post-weaning.

Summit Cow or Summit Sire: Are noted in pedigrees with the word Summit or the abbreviation (SC or SS). Initially, must maintain a calving interval of 380 days or less, weaning at least 3 calves. The weaning weight ratio for all calves must average at least 105%. Once a Summit Cow has earned her distinction she will always be noted as such. A sire is given Summit status once he has at least 5 daughters reach Summit Cow status Individual Performance Weight Per Day of Age (WDA): In pounds and calculated by dividing the actual yearling weight taken on weigh day by the number of days of age on weigh day.

Average Daily Gain (ADG): Expressed in pounds gained on a daily basis while animal on gain test. Calculated by taking the weight gained between weaning weigh date and yearling weigh date and dividing this weight by the number of days between those two weight points.

Birth Weight (BW): Actual weight at birth, expressed in pounds.

Weaning Weight (205): Weaning weight adjusted to a constant 205 days.

Takes into account differences in days of age at weaning and age of dam .

Weaning Weight (Ratio): A direct comparison of an individual to all other individuals in its weaning contemporary group. Expressed as a percentage with 100 being the average for the group.

Yearling Weight (365): Yearling weight adjusted to a constant 365 days. Takes into account differences in days of age at yearling time, average daily gain post-weaning, and adjusted 205 weight.

Yearling Weight (Ratio): A direct comparison of an individual to all other individuals in its yearling contemporary group. Expressed as a percentage with 100 being the average for the group.

Scrotal Circumference (SC): Testicular circumference, measured in centimeters, and adjusted to 365 days of age.

Residual Feed Intake RFI (Residual Feed Intake): A feed efficeincy trait that quantifies variation in feed intake that is unrelated to body weight and average daily gain. Measures animals that consume less feed than expected for a given body weight and growth rate.

DMI (Dry Matter Intake): Daily dry matter intake expressed in pounds per day.

R InX (Residual Feed Intake Index): Expressed in % above or below average of group. Calculated using actual measured RFI, average daily gain during test period, and adjusted yearling weight where the RFI and average daily gain benefits the index while advantages in adjusted yearling weight decreases the index.

Date of Birth Generation Ultrasound Calving Ease, Gain Data Residual Feed Intake

Ultrasound Fat (FAT): Measured in inches and adjusted to 365 days.

Intramuscular Fat (IMF): Measured as a percentage and used as a predictor of genetic marbling value.

Ribeye Area (REA): In square in. and used as a predictor of ribeye size.

Expected Progeny Difference Expected Progeny Difference (EPD): The genetic predictor of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to the progeny of other animals listed in the breed database.

EPD Accuracy: Since all bulls in this catalog are non-parents, their accuracies are the lowest calculated by our national sire evaluation program. Every EPD reported is either current or an interim EPD. An EPD noted with a “P” is a pedigree EPD which is the average of the parent’s EPDs. Calving Ease Direct (CED): It predicts the average difference in calving ease between selected sires when bred to first calf heifers. Expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births between sires when bred to first calf heifers with the larger number indicating greater calving ease.

Calving Ease Maternal (CEM): It predicts the average calving ease with which a sire’s daughters will calve as first-calf heifers when compared to daughters of a different sire. Expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births with the larger number indicating greater calving ease Birth Weight EPD (BW): In pounds, predicts calf size and calving ease.

Weaning Weight EPD (WW): Expressed in pounds, is a predictor of an animal’s ability to transmit weaning growth to its progeny.

Yearling Weight EPD (YW): Expressed in pounds, is a predictor of an animal’s ability to transmit yearling growth to its progeny.

Milk EPD (Milk): Predicts a sire’s genetic merit for milk and mothering ability as expressed 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.

Maternal & Growth EPD (MG): Expressed in pounds, a genetic predictor of weaning weight by blending a combination of maternal milk and weaning weight value.

Scrotal Circumference EPD (SC): Measured in centimenters at yearling time, predicts testicular size.

Fat Thickness (FAT): In inches, is a predictor for external fat thickness and correlates to fleshing ability and fat cover at harvest time.

Intramuscular Fat (I MF): Expressed as a percentage, is a predictor of transmitting ability for marbling or intra-muscular fat correlating to USDA quality grade at harvest time.

Ribeye Area (REA): Expressed in square inches, is a predictor of transmitting ability of ribeye size and overall muscle mass which is a key component in USDA yield grades.

The most interesting fact to consider in the Righteous discussion is the incredible and exciting trend we have discovered in our initial RFI Test at Genetic Development Center. No question Righteous will sire plenty of pounds and superior carcass merit. However, in this latest test Righteous also proved his ability to add extra value in a very efficient manner by producing the top sire group for Residual Feed Intake and RFI Index across both bulls and heifers.

Volumes have been written about their donor dam Miss NMSU 924 referencing her long term history for fertility and fault free production. At 14 years of age, she ranks as one of the all-time great cows in the entire history of the Brangus breed. At 14, she still has a perfect udder, raising an excellent natural calf, and soon ready to enter our donor program one more time. A full sister to 924Z4 has a set of embryo calves born this spring at that rank as possibly their best set of ET calves born to date.

Bull calf at side sired by MC Launch Pad 129Y12 calved 1-30-13 weighing 66 lbs.

Elegantly designed donor prospect with a fantastic udder and a quality bull calf at side. This eye stopping young cow is sired by Something Special’s full brother and out of the donor that produced two herd sire prospects sold in our 2012 Bull Sale. This 333 cow family originates from an Angus cow we selected 14 years ago as the top pick from the historical Dalebanks Angus herd. These years later we continue to see traits in our 333 family members that led us to that great Angus cow from Dalebanks like udder quality, fertility, fleshing ability, and quality of calf raising value.

MC Jethro 00S3 RBM Ms Jethro 924U2 Miss NMSU 924 Righteous burst upon the breed scene in March 2011 when we sold a 200 straw semen package that broke all existing breed records for a yearling bull. Righteous had just scanned a 17.1 in. ribeye and ranked 109% on his IMF ratio while measuring 41.5 cm scrotal circumference and breaking the 1400 lb. barrier for yearling weight.

Since then his first calves have hit the ground, crushed the scales and now Righteous is picking up steam on the Trait Leader List already moving to the #2 spot for Weaning Weight. We expect that pattern to continue after his first yearling measures have been recorded with phenomenal weights and measures. Interestingly enough, Righteous has also earned our high ranking sire award in our RFI research and would be the #1 Trait Leader for RFI if an EPD were available.

Only a handful of sons in this sale but they have pressed the scales while measuring impressive values for both REA and IMF. Certainly we expect Resolute to move up the Trait Leader board once these newest measures have been run through the EPD system. Currently, the handful of Resolute sons in this sale averaged 15.8 in for REA and 5.0 for IMF to respectively ratio 104% and 105%. His first daughters measured well and with impressive pelvic area. When considering Resolute keep in mind his moderated framed, easy fleshing, big ribbed, perfect uddered donor dam.

How much can you afford to pay for a top bull?

The bull in the example is worth $4,500 more due to increased weaning weights as compared to the aver age bull that will keep your weaning weights the same.

The added dollar value a bull is worth increases even

more considering additional dollar values for increased Example: A bull that will add 30 lbs. to the weaning yearling weights, higher quality replacement females, weight of each of his calves mated to 25 cows per year feedlot performance, and improved carcass grid values. Take this formula and put your own figures in and for 4 years and selling the calves for $1.50 per pound. see what the true numbers indicate you can pay.

30 x 25 = 750 x 4 = 3,000 x $1.50 = $4,500 Bull Buying Formula Additional pounds/calf from increased breeding value X # of cows bred to bull per year X # of years bull is used X expected selling price of calves = Additional $$$ you can pay for a better bull

Connealy Freightliner MC Ms Freightliner 000M26 MC Ms 189/4-000J22 Too Cool is polled, homozygous black, and was one of the spotlight bulls we sold in 2010 when he brought $35,000 as our third high selling bull. He is one of the exciting sires in our line-up and an outcross to most of the contributing sires in our genetic lineup. His dam is a full sister to MC New Direction 000M24 who is one of our all-time great ones with proven trait leading performance, maternal value, testicle size, and muscle mass. The sire of Too Cool is the best News Man son in the breed and one that has left an incredible set of daughters sure to maintain the legacy for years to come. We are equally confident that Too Cool will leave a great legacy of legitimate sire producing daughters certain to hang around for years and years.

Herd Sire Prospect • Could be one of the most sought after prospects in the sale offering.

• His sire, Double Take, is gaining recognition as one to add pounds, maternal strength, carcass merit, and calving ease.

• Note his 107% REA ratio, 107% WW ratio, and 110% YW ratio coupled with 40.1 cm scrotal.

• Dam is from one of the best sets of embryo sister born to date at Mound Creek.

• Maternal grand dam is a long time herd favorite and Summit Cow. • This pedigree contains three of the all-time great cows in our programs with 889P4, 000M22, and 924 NMSU. • While he excels in many areas, it his all around balance across the board that catches our eye.

Nimitz of Brinks 75L12 MB Ms Nimitz 129R MB Ms Big Cat 129M3 (SC) Revelation was one of our top selling sire groups in 2011 and this year we have another solid set of Rev sons and other closely related bulls from the same New Direction sire line. Revelation is still the reigning Yearling Weight Trait Leader for the breed and holds the #6 spot for Weaning Weight value, #9 for Scrotal Circumference, and #20 for REA. Once a few more daughters wean calves he will most likely move onto the Milk leader list and the Total Maternal list. If so this will put him on same par with his great sire, New Direction, who has been a National Breed Trait Leader for Weaning Weight, Yearling Weight, Milk Value, Maternal Value, Scrotal Circumference, and Ribeye Area EPD values.

Thick and Beefy Selection • Easy to put him on short list due to overall measured traits and impressive genetic predictors.

• Dam brought $60,000 in 2006 and is considered one of the top Cadence daughters in breed.

• Revelation is a multiple trait leading sire know for high end performance and ribeye measures.

• Collectively, the blending of maternal strengths and performance power adds to his top 2% rank for YW and MG; top 1% for SC; top 4% for WW; 5% for M, 15% for REA; and 20% for IMF EPD values.

• Note his impressive gain from weaning to yearling assisting in a favorable RFI value and a 108% RFI Index.
