Welcome to our 23rd sale! Dear Cattlemen and Cattlewomen,
Left to right: Kyle, Abby, Lilly and Kayla Helms.
Bryan, Shannon and Savannah Helms.
Mother Nature sure gave us a tumble this past year! Even as we are putting this catalog together we see the struggles of the weather - from postponing pictures due to subzero temperatures, ice storms, and unbelievable mud – things have been a bit volatile. Regardless, we are Cattlemen; we are tough and we always figure out how to get the job done. It is with that very mindset that we have selected this set of bulls and heifers for this spring sale. These cattle will get it done for you. We culled the bulls harder than ever to ensure that only the right bulls are offered. Whether you are in need of larger framed terminal bulls, maternal bulls, or the well-balanced all around good bull, we have you covered. If a heifer bull is what you need, be sure to look for the “Show Me Select” stamp within the lot boxes of the qualifying bulls. From beginning to end, the quality runs deep in this sale.
We will wrap up the sale with an awesome set of replacement heifers. We will be offering 15 Open and ready to breed fancy black heifers, one lot of 5 SpringBred Red Balancers, and a really salty set of Fall-Bred Red Balancers. If you are looking to rebuild your cow numbers after the drought, be sure to come and look these heifers up! As always please feel free to call ahead to visit about the bulls or feel free to stop by and look through the cattle ahead of sale day to make your selections.

Flying H Genetics’ Grown On Grass Bull Sale | 3
G rown on G rass tm — F escue A dapted B ulls WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? BRED 4 PROFIT is fairly easy to explain, we’re talking genetics both measured and observed. Utilizing DNA enhanced EPD’s combined with phenotypic criteria we can make genetic progress in multiple traits at the same time. These tools allow us to produce Superior Genetics and some not so superior genetics that must be eliminated. With Flying H Genetics 17 Quality Standards as our guide we can now produce more Superior Genetics than ever before. BUILT 2 WORK is a challenge because it requires us to do what is right not necessarily the most profitable. For many decades, most bulls sold have been developed for Sale Day--clipped and washed and fattened to look their very best so they’ll bring more money. Not a bad idea from the seller’s side of the fence, but what about the bull and the bull buyer? Why is it so hard to put the buyer and the bull first when deciding how to develop sale bulls? Excess FAT is detrimental to both the bull’s longevity and the buyer’s ability to evaluate true muscling, thickness and growth. Does 200 pounds of extra fat really make the bull more muscular or growthy just because he weighs 200 pounds more? NO! We know EPD’s predict genetics, did you know that FAT predicts lazy, bad footed bulls.
Flying H Genetics has been developing ROUGHAGE ‘N READY and GROWN ON GRASS/FESCUE ADAPTED Bulls for years because it’s better for the bulls and our customers. Bulls developed into athletic, muscular and aggressive breeding machines, with hard, sound feet and legs, correct structure and guaranteed breeders. Take your pick—Superior Genetics BRED 2 WORK!
Are Fescue Adapted Bulls Better? Have you ever run a marathon, taken a driving test, played golf or went deer hunting without getting prepared? I doubt it, but if you did you probably did not do very well. So, why would you buy fat, lazy bulls that are fed way too much corn to look good and thick and then turn them out to work at breeding cows on Fescue grass for which they are not prepared? Yes, Fescue Adapted, Grown On Grass® bulls are better because their superior genetics are designed and developed to work for a living. They are athletic, conditioned and ready to do the job you expect them to do. They will not be fat but they are muscular, structurally sound with good feet and legs, and conditioned to work hard for you. Even if you don’t have Fescue grass, being Grown On Grass® ensures that our bulls will be able to perform, breed, and thrive on ANY type of grass/forage. It took a while to “figure it out” but developing bulls on Fescue Grass in Missouri is a customer friendly, proven concept that really does work. Our customers tell us our Grown On Grass® Fescue Adapted bulls are more aggressive, breed more cows and last longer because of the way we develop them. FLYING H GENETICS FESCUE ADAPTED BULLS ARE BETTER BECAUSE YOU GET SUPERIOR GENETICS DEVELOPED TO DO THE JOB YOU EXPECT THEM TO DO WITHOUT ANY FRUSTRATING DELAYS!

Flying H Genetics is retaining 50% semen interest in every bull sold. The buyer receives 100% possession and resale or salvage value and 50% semen interest. - If Flying H Genetics chooses to utilize their semen interest, they will coordinate with the owner and pay all expenses for their semen. If a semen sales market develops on a bull, Flying H Genetics will work with the owner to promote and sell semen splitting the expenses and income 50/50. Again, this semen reserve does not affect the buyer’s ability to have full use of and receive full sale price for the bull with the semen reserve following the bull to the new owner. We estimate that this may only affect 1 or 2 bulls per year. If you have questions, please visit with Elliott or Cody at any time.
Abbreviations and Explanations: 1. CE – Calving Ease: the higher the value the greater the calving ease expected in first calf heifers. 2. BW – Birth Weight: expressed in pounds, is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less birth weight. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
WW –Weaning Weight: expressed in pounds, is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less pounds at weaning. YW – Yearling Weight: expressed in pounds, is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less pounds of yearling growth. MK – Milk: is a predictor of his genetic potential for his daughter’s milk and mothering ability. CW – Carcass Weight: expressed in pounds is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less carcass weight. RE – Ribeye Area: expressed in square inches, is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less Ribeye area. MB – Marbling: expressed as a USDA marbling score & reflects his ability to improve marbling.
9. INDEX
4 Simmental influenced cattle: API - All Purpose Index; Hereford influenced cattle: BMI - Baldy Maternal Index; Red Angus influenced cattle: HB - HerdBuilder Index - These indexes calculate the total potential value of his birth, growth, carcass, muscle & maternal genetics. 4 Angus cattle: $B – Beef Value: An index that accounts for all traits relevant to end product profitability (i.e. - growth and carcass performance)
9. INDEX
4 Simmental influenced cattle: TI - Terminal Index; Hereford influenced cattle: CHB - Certified Hereford Beef; Red Angus influenced cattle: GM - GridMaster - These indexes calculate his terminal (non-maternal) value based on growth, muscle & carcass.
4 Gelbvieh influenced cattle: FPI – Feeder Profit Index: An economic selection index designed to aid producers in selecting sires whose progeny will perform in the feedlot and are sold on grade and yield. Well ranking sires for FPI have higher marbling and carcass weight than their contemporaries. As a terminal index, little emphasis is put on maternal traits such as stayability and calving ease. 4 Angus cattle: $W – Weaning Value: expressed in dollars per head, is the expected difference in maternal preweaning performance.
10. Actual SC – Actual Scrotal Circumference: Scrotal circumferences listed here are actual measurements taken on 1/24/2019. Updated measurements will be provided on the supplement sheet the day of the sale. 11. Pedigree
12. FHG STAR RANKING SYSTEM—This system ranks cattle in five major areas of customer genetic needs—Disposition, Growth, Muscle, Carcass and Maternal. In Missouri, where bulls are grown on fescue grass, we measure and rank them in a sixth area of need—Foragability. Disposition—1H & 2H Culled, 3H Good, 4H Better, 5H Best. Growth, Muscle, Carcass, Maternal and Foragability—3H ranking identifies breed average genetics for the trait, a 4H ranks them within the top 50% to 25% of the breed and a 5H ranks them within the top 25% of the breed genetically for the traits. Information used to develop these rankings includes performance measurements of the individual animal, his sire and his dam, EPDs and ultrasound data. Foragability – the scores for this rank system are derived from analysis of three important factors: 1. The individuals Grown On Grass gain ratio (how well he performed when compared to others eating the same fescue grass), 2. We examine the fat thickness of the individual ultrasound results (greater fat cover suggests and more easily fleshing animal) and/or DNA analysis & evaluation of his GE EPDs, and 3. The animals physical design is evaluated for capacity (individuals with more “guts” tend to be better foragers). Our Star Ranking System combines all the data into a simple ranking system to help you easily find the specific genetics you need for a trait or combination of traits. A more complete explanation of the Disposition Star System can be found on page 22. 13. COLOR STATUS - Homo Black (will only produce black calves), Black (carries a red gene, could produce a red calf).
14. POLLED STATUS—Homo Polled (by pedigree or DNA test) will produce only polled calves, Polled or Scurred (not horned). 15. BREED MAKEUP 16. COOPERATOR HERD IDENTIFICATION 17. INDIVIDUAL’S BREED ASSOCIATION ASSIGNED REGISTRATION NUMBER 18. INDIVIDUAL’S BIRTH DATE

G E N O M I C A L LY E N H A N C E D E P D s ( G E E P D s ) :
IGS Releases Multi-breed Genetic Evaluation Powered by BOLT International Genetic Solutions (IGS) is an unprecedented collaboration between progressive breed associations fervently committed to enhancing commercial profitability. The collaboration has yielded the world’s largest genetic evaluation of beef cattle with over 17 million animals and 120,000+ genotypes.
Here are the notable changes you will see with the EPDs:
• Movement of EPDs and Re-Ranking
• Shrinking of EPD range
• Improved use of Genomics/DNA Markers
The table below shows how many progeny records it takes for an animal without genomics to have the same BIF accuracy as the young animal with genomics (but no progeny). In other words, EPDs on a genotyped 1-month-old calf will be as accurate as an animal with birth weight records on 21 calves, weaning weight records on 22 calves, etc. The carcass traits represent actual carcass records, not ultrasound records. You may notice the maternal calving ease gets the least boost from genomics. This is due in part to such few females being genotyped.

In summary, what does this mean for Flying H Genetics’ customers? Flying H Genetics has taken the time, effort and expense to Genomically Enhance, Defect Test and Sire Verify all the bulls in our sale using BOLT. That means you, as our customer, can buy with confidence knowing that these bulls’ genetic predictions are more accurate and proven than with previous systems. By better knowing each bull’s genetic potential you can make more informed breeding decisions to achieve maximum benefit in your cowherd.

Cattle are a herd instinct animal. Separate them from the herd and their natural response is to flee back to the group or fight for their life. Domesticating them has gentled them but their natural instincts of flight and fight are still there at varying degrees. Generally, the sooner and more often cattle are in contact with and handled by humans in a calm, non-threatening way, the more trusting and less flighty or threatened they will feel. Knowing this, our system separates an individual animal from the group into a small pen with one or two people to add a common stressor. Since all cattle have a different disposition (just like people) this will create different degrees of nervousness, flight and fight that can be scored. Scoring the different levels of nervousness, flight and fight allows us to identify different levels of disposition. The scores range from 1 to 5 with 5 being the most calm. This is a subjective score but certain actions help group the cattle into the five different levels. Following is a general description of the type of actions observed while scoring that help rank each individual’s disposition. One Star–animal is very nervous and agitated and is looking for an escape route. Will not stop and stand, tests the fence and will show fight and turn on you if pressed. When the out gate is opened he leaves on the run. He’s always at the back of a group, head up and keeps his distance. He will make others nervous and flighty and is hard to sort from the group. Anything new will create great distress and he will get more agitated the longer he’s held seperately. Due to safety issues, these are culled immediately. Two Star–animal is nervous and very uncomfortable. He will keep moving, walking the fence and trot or run if approached. Not as likely to show fight but will exit fast. Very observant and

keeps his distance even in a group. He will be a little hard to sort from the group. He’s always nervous and flighty in a strange situation. He presents a safety concern and causes handling problems with the whole herd so is culled asap. Three Star–animal is uncomfortable wanting to keep distance. He will stop but is very attentive and moves without much pressure. He’ll exit at a fast walk or slight trot. Handles fine in a group but gets nervous when seperated, wanting to rejoin the herd. Can get excited if pressured or forced out of comfort zone so low stress, low pressure handling helps. Four Star–animal moves when pressure is applied but will stop easily. Will stand and allow you to approach but not get too close. Exits at a walk. Fast movements, loud noises and strange situations will make him nervous. Low stress handling works great. Five Star–animal is very calm and gentle, easy to sort and move. Will stand, allow you to approach and maybe touch him and may even approach you. Needs to be urged to leave the pen. Can get excited but calms down quickly. Responds well to proper handling.
B reeding soundness development & exam Every bull we sell has had a thorough breeding soundness exam of his testicles for size, conformation, and overall quality. His prostate and seminal vesicles are also examined via reticle palpation to make sure he is free of any infection. Each bull has given a high quality semen sample examined under a microscope by a veterinarian. Furthermore, each bull receives the following Pre-Breeding season shots for his protection and durability: • Pour on wormer • Ultrabac 7 – 7 way Blackleg (Clostridial vaccine) • Express 3 VL5 BI – 5 way Lepto, Vibrio, BVD Type 1 & 2, IBR – modified live • Autogenous Pinkeye vaccine – made with local pinkeye strains (7 distinct strains) from around this area.

Because disposition is a very important management and safety issue, Flying H Genetics has researched and developed a system to score all of their cattle, including any cattle sold for breeding purposes, for disposition to eliminate the unacceptable ones. We have been culling on disposition for years but scoring them quantifies and indentifies them more accurately making culling more accurate and effective.

Show Me Select Heifer Qualified It is very important to correctly identify bulls to be used on first calf heifers. Therefore, we use a combination of two tools. We start with the guidelines for heifer bull qualification established by the University of Missouri Extension’s Show-Me Select Heifer Program. This system ranks bulls with the desired amount of calving ease or CE to work on heifers and minimize any chance of calving difficulty due to the size and shape of the calf. The Show-Me Select Program has set minimum thresholds for CE that a bull must have to be used on a heifer. Furthermore, those standards are based on EPDs calculated by breed associations only - i.e. no generically calculated numbers. We also use some data we collect to help strengthen the accuracy of this process. We analyze a bull’s birth weight and physical design to assess their ability to make a “sleep at night” CE bull. All Bulls in this catalog that meet or exceed the standards set by the Show-Me Select Program and our secondary evaluation will be identified by the “Show Me Select Heifer Qualified” stamp in their lot box. If you have any questions contact us and refer to the Show-Me Select website at http://agebb.missouri.edu/select/prgmreq.htm

D eath & I njury W arranty Flying H Genetics has offered to share death and injury losses suffered during the first breading season with customers for years. After some confusion over the old warranty and interest by many customers to cover the full cost of their purchases at a reasonable cost, we have initiated the following warranty: COVERAGE/LIMITATIONS The coverage of this warranty is limited to the first breeding season or a maximum of 6 months from the date of purchase, unless other arrangements are made ahead of time. Indemnity under this warranty covers all death and loss-of-use injuries except those caused by negligence or willful misconduct or mistreatment of the bulls covered. Replacement value will be limited to actual purchase cost of the Flying H Genetics bull covered minus any salvage value or other compensation received by the customer. CLAIMS All claims for death or injury must be reported to Flying H Genetics within 24 hours of discovery and a complete diagnosis by a licensed veterinarian must be reported. INJURED If the injury is not life threatening or permanent and the bull can be returned to service, Flying H Genetics will work with the customer to supply a replacement bull to use at no cost, until the original bull can be returned to service. LOSS DUE TO INJURY If the injury is permanent and prevents the bull from returning to service, Flying H Genetics will supply a replacement bull as close to the original bull’s type and quality as possible to complete the first breeding season. At the end of the breeding season, the customer can keep the bull as
the replacement bull as fulfillment of this warranty or return him to Flying H Genetics and receive credit on a replacement in any upcoming sale. The credit will equal the price of the original bull minus salvage value if any from the original bull. The customer agrees to provide humane care and obtain maximum salvage value from the injured bull. This guarantees the customer a bull to get their cows bred and full compensation for the purchase price of the bull through a replacement they get to pick and price. LOSS DUE TO DEATH When a Flying H Genetics bull dies between the date of purchase and the end of the first breeding season, through no fault of the customer as described above, Flying H Genetics will supply a replacement bull, as close to the original bull’s type and quality as possible, to finish out the breeding season. At the end of the breeding season, the customer can either keep the replacement bull as fulfillment of this warranty or return him to Flying H Genetics and receive credit on a replacement in next year’s sale. This credit will equal the purchase price of the original bull minus any compensation received if insured by an insurance company. This guarantees the customer a bull to get their cows bred and full compensation for the purchase price of the bull through a replacement they get to pick and price. COST Cost for the death and injury warranty will be 10% of purchase price, due at the time of purchase. If a customer chooses not to cover their animal against death and injury, they assume all loss due to death or injury of their bull. This warranty does not affect other customer services like the quality and calving ease guarantees that all Flying H Genetics bulls carry.
