This is not a mortality insurance policy nor does it cover mismanagement or neglect. We do not cover injuries sustained prior to the breeding season if your Gerloff bull is turned out with other bulls. We highly recommend insuring your purchase after the sale as this will protect your investment in the event of injury prior to the first breeding season.
If an open heifer is determined to be a non-breeder, then we would ask you to sell her or return her and would offer you the difference in her purchase price minus the salvage value as credit in the future sale. All cows selling with calves or examined pregnant will carry their own guarantee. We would suggest that normal care needs to be exercised toward these cattle and particularly that the yearling bulls are not allowed to get too thin. All claims must be made by May 15, 2026. Buyer will be responsible for purchasing AI certificates.
Gerloff Farms 18th Annual Bull Fest & Female Sale
119 Years and 6 Generations!
Gerloff Farms: Celebrating 119 Years Across Six Generations!
Gerloff Farms has been dedicated to the livestock industry since 1906, which makes it 119 years old! The Gerloff family operates a truly family-oriented cattle business. Now in its seventh generation, few seedstock sources in America have such impressive credentials!
Charlie Gerloff, a senior member of the team, is truly one of a kind! He has a passion for Angus cattle and the community surrounding them, and throughout the years, he has made significant contributions to the improvement of the Angus breed.
As time has passed, the next generation has become very active in the operation. Everyone at Gerloff Angus plays a vital role. Dakota closely collaborates with his grandfather, Charlie, on bull marketing and development. He has developed into an excellent seedstock producer and understands the importance of having a profitable bull. Lance, Scott, and Kim are tireless workers and keep the entire Gerloff Program on target. Lance and Becky’s daughter, Olivia, has had a brilliant career showing Angus cattle, and today she is recognized as one of the top young judges in the livestock industry. Charlie Gerloff and his family are unique people. They love the cattle industry, take pride in their customers, and truly have a herd of superior seedstock.
Repeat customers are a cornerstone of the Gerloff seedstock program, with many buyers returning time after time, generation after generation. The team at Gerloff Farms stands behind every animal they sell, ensuring there are no unexpected or unpleasant surprises. When you buy a bull from Gerloff, you can be confident in their focus on profitability, reliability, and customer satisfaction. You will truly enjoy doing business with them. I look forward to seeing you at this important sale!
Sincerely,
The enthusiasm of calf prices can’t be ignored. Some will be glad just to ride the wave of these historic times. However, others (likely you) won’t just settle to “go along”. You are looking to maximize all the value available for you. For your family. You need to get some sense of what your operation looks like over the next number of years. That is going to take tremendous genetic potential and genetic balance. The Gerloff bulls offer that. Just study those API numbers. Your future demands clear thinking. This lineup adds clarity. The GF team has the courage to put all bulls on the same genetic system so you can directly compare any bull in the catalog. No smoke and mirrors. Who else has the courage to do that? To add clarity for you? You need innovative thinking. You know things will be a bit different looking forward. The GF family has once again proven their personal willingness to innovate and think differently. The Gerloffs are marking history as the first seedstock operation anywhere to offer every bull they sell with the simple to use 701x xTpro tag. That means if you spend $6500 or more on your bull purchase you will be able to monitor the location, health, and mounting performance of your bull remotely from anywhere simply by a quick click on your phone. The Gerloffs are investing aggressively to ensure your relationship with them pays off. So that you stay passionate and profitable in the beef business. My only question. Do your other seedstock options do the same?

Quick Reference to ASA EPD and $ Indexes
Expected Progeny Differences (EPD): EPD are the most accurate and effective tool available for comparing genetic levels. In using EPD, the difference between two sires’ EPD represents the unit difference expected in the performance of their progeny. For example, if sires A and B have EPD 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 EPD is knowing what units they are expressed in. For example, if the above case referred to weaning weight EPD, A would be expected to sire 15-pounds more weaning weight than B. If calving ease were the trait, A would be expected to sire 15-percent more unassisted births in first-calf heifers; in other words, if B sired 30 assists in a group of 100 heifers, we’d expect A to require 15 assists. A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s EPD rank him relative to other bulls in the breed. For percentile rankings or more detailed information about EPD and $ indexes visit www.simmental.org. Listed below are the units ASA EPD are expressed in:
All-Purpose Index (API): Dollars per cow exposed under an all-purpose-sire scenario. (See below for more details.)
Back Fat (BF): Inches of backfat.
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.
Maternal Calving Ease (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in first-calving daughters.
Milk (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk.
Marbling (MRB): Marbling score.
Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk and growth.
Ribeye Area (REA): Square inches of ribeye.
Warner-Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF):
Pounds of force required to shear a steak.
Stayability (STAY): Percent of daughters remaining in the cowherd at 6 years of age.
Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario. (See below for more details.)
Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight.
Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight.
Yield Grade (YG): Yield grade score.
$ Indexes: Though EPD allow for the comparison of genetic levels for many economically important traits, they only provide a piece of the economic puzzle. That’s where $ indexes come in. Through wellconceived, rigorous mathematical computation, $ indexes blend EPD and economics to estimate an animal’s overall impact on your bottom line. 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 her d size retained and the remaining heifers and steers put on feed and sold grade and yield.
Terminal Index (TI): Evaluates sire for use on mature Angus cows with all offspring put on feed an d sold grade and yield.
Using API and TI: First, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping replacements use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPD, 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. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buyin g 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 percentile rankings or more detailed information about EPD and $ indexes visit www.simmental.org.

My wife and I purchased our first bull from Charlie Gerloff nearly 10 years ago. That initial purchase proved to be the foundation of something much bigger. Over time, we have continued to add Gerloff bulls, and in the process, built an entire cowherd around Gerloff genetics. The results have been outstanding. The bulls have performed with consistency, and the cows and heifers we’ve retained have developed into a productive, reliable, herd that we are proud of. We’ve been very pleased with every purchase and the impact these genetics have had on our program and the Gerloff Family that stands behind it.

“For over two decades we have been running Gerloff Farms bulls, and our herd has evolved into a premium Cow/ Calf operation because of it. Their genetics provide us with a herd that thrives on fescue, mothers that calve easily and calves that pack on pounds once they hit the ground. If you’re looking to maximize profits in your herd with minimal inputs, then give them a call.”

We bought our first Gerloff bull back in 2015 when we hadn’t really met any of the Gerloff family yet. Now, jumping to 2025, 90% of my genetics are Gerloff influenced. I bought several bulls and females over the years, and they have become an extended family. They always stand behind their bulls and females and are always doing what's needed to keep up with the times and take care of their Customers!
