Welcome to the Sale
Welcome friends to the inaugural McMurphy Farms Fall Production Sale. We have been selling a select group of females in the fall over the past few years online, but we felt like it was time to get some people to the headquarters to see what we have been working on over the past 2 decades. This year is our first live sale that will include some elite females along with some exceptional age- advantaged bulls that we would normally hold until the Trusted Performance Bull Sale in March. These are younger, Spring-born bulls that we would have had to push too hard to market the first of March. We have a great track record with longevity in our bulls when we don’t push them too hard, too early. We also feel like 18-month-old bulls are the sweet spot for most of our customers and we continue to get calls for bulls for fall calving herds. The females we have in the offering this year are too good to not come see in person. We truly believe if you make the trip to Northwest Oklahoma you will not be disappointed. These females are from the best genetics we have generated over the past 20 years. Please do yourself a favor and come look!
Our family has worked extremely hard to provide you with what we think are as good and as deep a set of Red Angus Cattle that you will find in the country. We hope you enjoy the offering as much as we do and are confident you will find something that will help you move your program forward. Cattle are available anytime for you to view and evaluate and we would love to visit with you about their genetics and how we think they will fit your goals. We want to make sure you know that we will help market or purchase your offspring out of our genetics because we want you to be successful in your business and we know our genetics value!
Thank you again for taking a look at what we have to offer and if there’s not one for you this year please think of us again next year when considering a breeding piece or herd sire to your operation.
Sincerely,
The McMurphy Family

RETAINED INTEREST
McMurphy Farms will retain 1/3 semen interest in all bulls unless otherwise noted in the catalog.
One of the most dynamic things about the beef industry is its diversity and the opportunities offered within. From ranch to rail, the possibilities to raise a family and make a sustainable living are very real. For those who embrace those opportunities and utilize great business practices with discipline are generally around for multiple generations. Also, for those who are willing to make sacrifices when needed, those willing to go without for a period to endure a challenge to come out on the right side of the situation, and those who pass that grit and determination on to the next generation through example, those operations become empires. Randy and Paula McMurphy are salt of the earth people who are very involved in their Western Oklahoma community. They provided the bare necessities to fuel a fire and passion for production agriculture for each of their two sons. The desire and the ability to execute jointly is why McMurphy Farms is what it is today with the foundation for the next generation to carry the torch.
Both Casey and Cody married well and are greatly blessed with children who share the same desire for the ranching and agricultural lifestyle. The third generation is very active in 4-H, FFA, and youth livestock activities. They are competitive within the states of Texas and Oklahoma for various livestock projects and on a national level as well with their Red Angus stock. A junior project for both of the brothers has evolved into what we know as McMurphy Farms today. In the beginning, this was a commercially focused ranch entity, and that is why, as producers of seedstock, they know and understand what the commercial rancher and cattleman need for their operations at the end of the day.
The ownership is involved in nearly every facet of the business. From finance and risk management to nutrition and the feeding sector to reproduction and genetics, both Casey and Cody are very knowledgeable. That’s why this female sale is an event that Red Angus and commercial cattlemen should pay attention to as it will be an annual event and an event that will grow in size and number from year to year as they continue to grow and expand the McMurphy brand.
As you flip through the pages of this sale book, you will find it dense in cow family with several maternal and full siblings representing both sexes. The quality is as good as they have ever offered, and as more and more sample the program, they return to tie into what’s next to come. The quality of the females is as good as they have ever offered. As for the bulls, they may very well be as deep in quality from one to the next as they have ever assembled for public appraisal as well. Feet is a buzzword industry wide, and we are certain that the hoof structure and skeletal integrity of this set of stock would improve a big swath of the Red Angus cattle out there as well as any operation they are introduced to commercially. All are ready to go to work for you and should have the credentials to enhance your cattle experience.
The Innovation Ag Marketing team strongly encourages you to attend the first live auction fall event at McMurphy Farms, west of Alva, Oklahoma. We also encourage you to contact Cody or Casey about scheduling a preliminary visit to view the stock and the program before sale day. This time of year can be consumed with family, athletics, church and community commitments, so know that the McMurphy Family and the marketing firm are available at any time to answer any questions about the offering. Thank you for your interest.
Enjoy the cattle,
Graham Blagg Jered Shipman Tim Anderson
Genetic Selection Information
BELOW YOU WILL FIND DESCRIPTIONS OF THE EPD DATA LISTED IN THIS SALE CATALOG.
EXPECTED PROGENY DIFFERENCE (EPD), is the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to the progeny of other animals listed in the database. EPDs are expressed in units of measure for the trait, plus or minus.
PROS, Profi tability and Sustainability is an all-purpose index that predicts average economic differences in all segments in the beef supply chain. This index is a combination of the breeding objectives modeled in the HerdBuilder and GridMaster selection indexes. In this index, replacement heifers are retained from within the herd and all remaining progeny are fed out to slaughter and sold on a quality-based grid. Traits included in this index include calving ease, growth, HPG, STAY, Mature Weight, Dry Matter Intake and carcass traits. The resulting index is expressed in dollars per head born (Index/High Value).
HERDBUILDER (HB), HerdBuilder is a maternal selection index that predicts the economic differences of animals for traits that are important from conception through weaning. Expressed as dollars per head born, HB is calculated based on the scenario that bulls are mated to heifers and cows, replacement heifers are retained and all remaining progeny are marketed at weaning. Traits included in the HB index include Calving Ease Direct, Calving Ease Maternal, Weaning Weight, Milk, Mature Weight, Heifer Pregnancy and Stayability (Index/High Value).
GRIDMASTER (GM), GridMaster is a selection index that predicts the average economic difference of non-replacement calves through the postweaning phase of production. GM places selection pressure on growth, feedyard performance and carcass traits. Expressed as dollars per head born, GM is calculated based on the scenario that progeny are fed out to slaughter and marketed on a quality-based carcass grid. Traits included in GM include Average Daily Gain, Carcass Weight, Dry Matter Intake, Marbling, Back Fat and Rib Eye Area (Index/High Value).
CALVING EASE DIRECT (CED), predicts the probability of calves being born unassisted out of 2-year-old heifers. It predicts the average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers.
BIRTH WEIGHT EPD (BW), predicts the difference, in pounds, for birth weight, and is also used in the calculation of Calving Ease Direct (CED) EPD.
WEANING WEIGHT EPD (WW), predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 205 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning.
YEARLING WEIGHT EPD (YW), predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to a standard 365 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling.
ADG, Average Daily Gain predicts differences in weight gain between 205 and 365 days of age. (Pounds/High Value)
DMI, Dry Matter Intake predicts differences in daily feed intake as measured in a feedlot during the post-weaning period. (Pounds/Low Value)
MILK EPD (MILK), is a predictor of 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.
ME, Maintenance Energy predicts the difference in maintence energy requirements. (Mcal per Month/Low Value)
HPG, Heifer Pregnancy predicts differences in the percent of daughters who are able to conceive and calve at 2 years of age following exposure to breeding. (Percent/High Value)
CALVING EASE MATERNAL (CEM), predicts the probability of a given animal's daughters calving unassisted at two years of age.
STAYABILITY (STAY) Stayability predicts differences in the ability of an animals’ retained daughters to remain productive in the herd – calve every year – through 6 years of age. (Percent/High Value)
MARBLING EPD (MARB), predicts differences for carcass marbling score as expressed in marbling score units. Higher marbling scores are positively correlated with higher carcass quality grades.
RIBEYE AREA EPD (REA), predicts differences of carcass Rib Eye Area between the 12th and 13th rib. Increased Rib Eye Area has a beneficial effect on Yield Grade which also includes Carcass Weight and Fat Thickness.
YG, Yield Grade predicts differences in USDA Yield Grade, which is calculated using CW, REA and Fat. (Yield Grade Units/Low Value)
CW, Carcass Weight predicts differences in actual hot carcass weight. (Pounds/High Value)
