BULL SALE Fellow Cattlemen,

It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to our 23rd annual bull sale. It has been another great year working with producers across the country. Having the ability to help place your feeder cattle, and to purchase your open replacement heifers, has given us the opportunity to analyze the impact of TH genetics in a vast array of environments. This analysis has a direct impact on our breeding decisions, resulting in the bulls we present to you here for your evaluation.

I would have to say with each passing year of working with our Topp Herefords customers, it has become more and more evident that working together we are better, stronger, and more viable.

The strength of our F1-focused feeder program has continued to grow. We continue to invest in systems that allow our bull buyers to present their calves to feeders who are looking for quality cattle sourced from known genetics. 2022 was our highest volume yet for moving our bull customers’ feeder calves through Topp Herefords marketing programs.

Our F1 heifer program continues to strengthen as well. In partnership with Bill Pitz of Pitz Farms in Iowa, we bought back about 2500 head of TH-sired, first cut, replacement-quality heifers and placed another 1,000 head with the trusted heifer development programs of Little Timber Farms/Rachel Gray and Broken Arrow S Ranch/Dallas Schott. It has been a sincere pleasure working with these operations. Thank you to all our valued Topp Herefords clients for raising the bar on the heifers we were able to provide these three operations.

We are excited to again have Tyler Schau presenting his expertise on risk management at our annual Cattlemen’s Banquet on Thursday, February 9th. Tyler will discuss the essentials of making your feeder calf marketing decisions, so come ready to learn and ask questions! Also, Tyler will be presenting before the meal, so if you want good seats for supper be sure to get there early.

Along with Tyler, we will be holding roundtable discussions with the primary feedlots that procure TH genetics. This annual event has turned into a very informative evening and will lead into our sale the next day at the ranch, which will be our largest offering yet of 230 Hereford Bulls. We look forward to seeing you!

A COMMON SENSE APPROACH TO GENETIC EXCELLENCE

In today’s world, cattle producers have more tools available than ever before to enhance the profitability of their operation. Theoretically, one can sort out their next herd bull while sitting in the comfort of their office in front of a computer. Genomic testing and EPDs are powerful tools that, used in the proper context, can enhance your final product. However, at Topp Herefords we feel that it is only a piece of a very simple puzzle that, at times, is made far too complex.

The cow herd at Topp Herefords is built on a foundation of four core values: udder quality, soundness, fertility and pounds. The structure by which we analyze these traits may be called old-fashioned by some. However, the process is real and exceptionally ruthless. Udder quality is determined at calving time by a simple 1-2 rating system. A 1 is great and a 2 is cull. Soundness is determined during spring vaccination season. A female with a cracked foot, bad joints, poor disposition or hard-doing is sorted off and not even bred. Fertility sorts itself out quickly with a 45-day breeding season. Last but not least, pounds weaned. If they don’t bring in a heavy calf, there is a pretty good chance she won’t be calving here next spring.

Finally, genomics and EPDs enter the equation. These tools become very usable at this point in the selection process—after all our culling procedures have been processed. With the added accuracy of GE-EPDs, making decisions based on these numbers is valuable because you can be assured the animal has also passed the real tests of our cow herd’s ability to produce profit.

To ensure the quality and integrity of the ratios and EPDs, we put all of the year’s calves together in the data set and the calves are separated at the AHA by age and sex. Not all programs are equal in this regard. When you choose Topp Herefords, you can rest assured you are getting what you pay for.

TOPP HEREFORDS

We want to improve the profitability of your ranch —Ryan Topp

Improving Your Profitability

Our primary purpose is to provide you a consistent source of premium Hereford genetics, but we take it a step further. We believe that a true Seedstock operation’s responsibility is to develop genetics and systems that ultimately help drive the beef industry forward. Therefore, our success is measured largely by our contribution to the sustainability of our commercial cow-calf customers. We have been working diligently to create a multi-layer system that helps improve the health and profitability of your operation.

There is Power in Choice

There are proven strategies the generations before us have successfully utilized. Still, looking beyond the box that we are accustomed to can help us make optimal decisions. Having choices is transformative. By diversifying your portfolio you strengthen your position and create a marketing strategy customized for your particular operation.

Develop Your Financial Strategy

Cattle producers are used to gambling. We play the market, bet our livelihood on our ability to catch the market at its high, and then take what we get. But markets aren’t always predictable. There are multiple tools available to help you manage risk, strengthen your marketing strategies and help improve your long-term financial effectiveness. Why ignore those?

There are no guarantees, but there are ways to improve your profitability longterm. As a Topp Herefords customer, we can help you diversify your marketing portfolio. This is your brand. This is your livelihood. There is power in choice. Let us help you capitalize on it.

Feeder Calf Marketing Options

Through a variety of feeder programs, ranging from spot sales to forward contracting, we can help you capture the added

Baldy Heifer Calf Buyback Program

Retained Ownership Opportunities

Retained ownership gives producers the opportunity to capitalize on the full potential of their calves. We are working to introduce our bull customers to the option of retaining ownership of their calves to the rail.

A COMMON SENSE APPROACH TO GENETIC EXCELLENCE

Selecting your bull battery is one of the most important decisions you make for your program. We get it—we have the same responsibility and understand what an impact this decision has on the future of your operation. With that in mind, we would like to share with you how we assess bulls and how we assess our herd.

The Fundamentals

First and foremost we look for soundness, depth and power, good feet, and good udders. It simply doesn’t matter if an animal’s ratios or EPDs are out of this world if the cattle are inefficient or lack structural soundness.

Ratios

We have utilized ratios as one of the biggest factors in determining how our females are mated or when selecting genetics to bring into our herd.

Ratios for both individual animal performance and performance of offspring over time are important. A performance ratio is the trait score for an individual animal within their contemporary group. We believe that contemporary groups should include as many calves as can be accurately compared. A ratio of 100 is average. Birth weight, weaning weight and yearling weight for an individual animal are common examples of performance ratios.

A dam’s production ratios are the average of the performance of her calves over time. For example, if a cow consistently produces calves that ratio below 100 on birth weight, but always ratio above 100 in weaning and yearling, that’s sound predictability that we refuse to ignore.

We combine ratios with EPDs for a designed result that

EPDs

EPDs allow us to compare the expected performance difference of progeny across herds and in different environments—providing a window into the potential genetic value of a bull or cow relative to the breed as a whole.

For non-parent animals, standard EPDs are statistical projections based on pedigree and individual performance in a registered herd. The accuracy of EPDs improve over time as the performance of progeny are added to the calculation.

Genomic-Enhanced EPDs

At Topp Herefords, we have been DNA testing since 2013. We DNA test to provide parent verification, identify genetic defect status, and increase the accuracy of EPDs.

GE-EPDs on virgin bulls increase the accuracy of EPDs substantially. By way of example, a bull with GE-EPDs has the same level of accuracy for the WW EPD as a bull with 12 recorded progeny.

Genetic Excellence

At Topp Herefords we bring all of the available tools together with experience, disciplined selection, and sound fundamentals to deliver you consistent, premium-quality Hereford genetics.

TH MASTERPLAN 183F has exceeded all our expectations. His progeny are born easy and are extremely vigorous at birth. They are short-marked, big-middled, and have a tremendous birth to weaning spread. Masterplan progeny, like their dam, are the easy-keeping kind. His first daughters are exceptionally gorgeous-uddered and after assessing his progeny past their first breeding season, we are beyond confident in their ability to maintain flesh while working. With high accuracy, 183F puts together antagonistic traits with low BW, while leading the breed in the top 1% for WW & YW, and top 2% for IMF. We just cannot say enough about the abilities of this young up-and-coming sire.

An impressive set of full brothers that tip the scale in terms of power and eye appeal - with an impressive cow family to top it off. Both individuals are true spread bulls out of one of our very elite, up-and-coming donors, 225A. 225A has posted high-end, lifetime growth ratios of 106.8 WW, 107 YW with 112 REA, and 103.5 MPPA.

full brothers of 321E, the dam of TH Innovation 105H, Sadler Ranch’s powerhouse purchased in the 2020 sale. 321E has mated very well regardless of how she is bred. 321E records lifetime ratios of 93 BW, 103.3 WW, and 121.7IMF. When you combine the physical stature of this mating with the genomic excellence of predictability, expect bigtime results.

family of

maternal power. 51E produced the high selling

Royal bull in the 2022 sale, going to Wooden Shoe Farms, 4 Taylors Livestock, ANL Polled Herefords, Brooks Brothers, Golden Oak Livestock and Roselawn Polled Herefords. 51E’s second calf, TH 183F Dignified 179J, was the lot 1 position in last year’s campaign selling to Robbie Gibson, OK and Blairs Ag, Canada. Combine 528K’s maternal lineage with his sire’s ability to consistently provide low birth while packing on performance, Lot 32 is a sure bet.

—Sire of Lots 46 to 75—

0225 has produced the most consistent set of calves ever sired by an outcross sire at Topp Herefords. Venture progeny are routinely born early, making him a sure-shot, short gestation sire. 96 progeny born at Topp Herefords ratioed 98.3 BW. Progeny hit the ground running with a tremendous amount of birth to weaning growth. 0225 himself displays a moderate frame, explosive rib shape and muscle, with a perfect foot. Venture had impressive individual ratios of 97 BW, 118 WW, 109 YW, 107 REA and 110 IMF. His high producing dam, 6082, displays lifetime ratios of 99.8 BW, 113.3 WW, 104.5 YW, 103.5 REA, 105 IMF.

and Brooks Brothers of Canada. In 2021, 13Y produced sale highlight 910G, and high seller 907G, going to Heartland Herefords, OK. 13Y posts lifetime production ratios of 101.6 BW, 109.2 WW, 108YW, and 101.2 REA. The type and kind that these brothers possess is outstanding. Balanced EPD profiles, powerful phenotype and proven genetics make these three full brothers ones to watch.

195B has become the #1 outcross sire for first calf heifers at TH. Progeny are born easy and very vigorous at birth. Smoke Stack progeny develop into mid-framed calves while exhibiting explosive shape and dimension. His daughters have exceptional udder type while maintaining above-average condition. 195B records lifetime progeny ratios of 98.9 BW, 102 WW, 100 YW, 100 REA and 105.4 IMF. 195B ranks in the top 15% for CED, top 20% BW, WW and YW and the top 10% for REA and IMF amongst the entire AHA database. In his first calf crop, 195B recorded the high selling bull of the 2022 Campaign going to John Harms as well as the popular 138J bull going to GENEX.

TH purchased an in-herd interest in 7327 after seeing him at Ashwood Cattle, OK in the fall of 2020. 7327 is massive in his structure yet holds a potent 7.7 CED, ranking him in the top 10% of the Hereford population. His dam, 403A, also combines the legendary Lambeau 17Y calving ease history to further complement 7327 as a sureshot heifer bull.

Thank you

— Keith —

Grateful to be celebrating Keith’s 10th anniversary at Topp Herefords. Keith’s attention to detail and his passion for Hereford cattle has been a tremendous attribute to Topp Herefords.

Keith is originally from Red Lake Falls, MN and came to us as an intern from NDSU in 2013, where he was pursuing a degree in Animal Science.

After starting with Topp Herefords, Keith established his own registered Hereford operation, Herberg Herefords. He is married to Kelsey and they have one son, Rory.

Keith is now the Seedstock Manager at Topp Herefords.

The Power Bull sire group of the 2023 campaign. 105H was one of the most popular calves of the 2021 sale going to Sadler Ranches, OK. 105H is as big-middled and stout of a Hereford bull as we have ever produced, along with having near perfect foot and joint structure. 105H ranks in the top ½ percent of the entire Hereford population for REA. His prolific dam is one of our lead donors (also owned with Sadler Ranches), with lifetime ratios of 93 BW, 103.3 WW, and 121.7 IMF.

Bulls Two Year Old

This trio of full brothers have extreme eye appeal with a relentless pedigree to back it up. They are out of a top female at the ranch, 13Y, who is responsible for Bottom Line 206E, the high seller of the 2018 sale, sold to Wooden Shoe Farms, ID. As well as the 2021 high seller 910G, owned by Heartland Herefords, OK. Along with extreme longevity, udder type, and eye appeal, note 13Y’s lifetime ratios of 101.6 BW, 109.2 WW, 108 YW, and 101.2 REA.

where Heartland Herefords purchased both 907G and full brother 910G. Because Doug has two full brothers, he has decided to

full possession and 1/2 semen interest in 907G. Topp Herefords is retaining 1/2 semen interest. 907G, in our minds, has the phenotype and mass, along with a very proven maternal factory that has produced consistent superiority over the last decade. 907G was used relatively heavy at TH in 2022 to produce that powerful, scale-crushing phenotype our clients demand.

907G’s dam, 13Y, has been responsible for several top sellers in the last decade. Her consistency and stellar performance are wellknown in her multitude of high-selling sons and daughters. 13Y records lifetime ratios of 109.2 WW and 108 YW, while keeping birth in check at 101.6 BW.
