FROM SIX BIG SKY AREA BREEDERS

Bulls of the Big sky Customers and Friends, When Bulls of the Big Sky group first came together one goal was to do something larger and better than any of these experienced group of breeders could do alone. By focusing on customer needs, consistent improvement and industry demands they are quickly accomplishing that goal. In just a few short years the Bulls of the Big Sky brand has come to signify well bred, ideally developed and right priced bulls that are ready to go to work in any environment and generate value for their new owners. Over the years these breeders have always stuck to their roots when it comes to offering great maternal value by focusing on the cow portion of the genetics equation. Then by adding improved calving ease, growth and carcass traits to the mix, the value proposition is clear. These bulls are simply bred to add profit for commercial cattle producers. Service is the second crucial component to your genetic provider decision. That service includes professional development to help insure multiple years of ranch service. By setting nutritional goals to keep daily gains in a modest range, overall health and longevity can be maximized while still providing a product that is big and strong enough to go to work in year one. If your bulls aren’t giving you 3-5 years of service like they should, consider trying some of these slower developed bulls on for size. They are bred and fed to last. This program is part of the reason why so many large, profit oriented ranches chose to source genetics from Bulls of the Big Sky. In my opinion this year’s selection is a full step ahead of any offering to date from this group and includes a set of red bulls that will turn your head. I am confident you will appreciate the consistency, performance and docility of the bulls even more than in the past. If you have interest or any questions about the 2017 Bulls of the Big Sky lineup, please give me a call at 406-581-7835 or email to mroppagr@gmail.com. Sincerely, Marty Ropp Allied Genetic Resources Montana Bulls for Blue The Bulls for Blue program is designed to support FFA members getting a start in their own beef production projects through Bulls for Blue start up funds. 10% of the 10th selling bull will be donated to the Montana FFA Foundation. These funds will support Supervised Agricultural Experience projects related to the beef industry. Purchase your next herd sire and support Montana FFA and the future of the beef industry!

Selling Approximately: 175 Yearling Bulls Purebred Simmental and SimAngusTM/Red Angus and Angus Black and Reds

Feeding and Delivery: Bulls will be fed free of charge back at Veltkamp's bull development facility in Manhattan, Montana until April 1, 2017. During that time, we will semen test and give your bulls a Breeding Soundness Exam. If a buyer wishes to keep their bull at Veltkamp's after April 1st, feed beyond April 1st and freight will be left to the buyer. We begin delivering bulls by the last week of March and early April. If you have special delivery requests, please let us know at the time of the sale. Feed charges will be $3.00 per head per day for those that request their bulls remain at Veltkamp’s after our delivery time. Bulls taken by the buyer immediately after the sale will receive a $150 discount, but we remind you that we will not have had the opportunity to semen test bulls taken by a buyer immediately after the sale, and we recommend that the buyers arrange for semen testing at their ranch prior to turnout.

Notice to Canadian Buyers: Bulls of the Big Sky will provide free delivery to the US side of Port of Entry at Sweetgrass, MT and pay for the cost of regular health papers. The Buyer is responsible for the cost of additional Canadian or Provincial Health Requirements.

Notice to Out of State Buyers: Please know your state health requirements prior to sale day. If your state requires Trich testing on 12 months or younger, the bull(s) will not be able to leave Montana immediately after the sale and must return to Veltkamp’s for testing. Though Bulls of the Big Sky pays for the cost of all regular health papers, the cost of Trich testing and other state specific health requirements will be the responsibility of the Buyer and will be billed to the Buyer.

The Bulls of the Big Sky delivery and feed policy is: • Buyer takes purchased bull(s) home immediately after sale: $150 per head discount. Fertility testing is Buyer’s responsibility. • Buyer requests that purchased bulls(s) return to Veltkamp’s after the sale until Breeder delivery on or about April 1: No Discount on price of bull(s) but no charge for feed and no charge for delivery for the first 300 miles, until on or about April1 Breeder delivery. • Buyer requests that purchased bull(s) return to Veltkamp’s after the sale and remain at Veltkamp’s beyond the Breeder delivery date on or about April 1: No discount on price of bull(s) but no charge for feed up to the Breeder delivery date on or April 1. After the Breeder delivery date on or about April 1, Buyer will pay $3.00/head/day for feed and must either pay for delivery (because Buyer requested that the purchased bull stay at Veltkamp’s beyond Breeder’s regular delivery) or pick up the purchased bull(s) himself at Veltkamp’s. • For purchased bulls traveling beyond 300 miles prior to the Buyer delivery date on or about April 1, the most economical trucking available will be arranged and the buyer will receive a 300-mile credit towards the total delivery cost. • Volume Buyer Delivery Special: Bulls of the Big Sky will make special delivery arrangements and discounts for large volume buyers on an individual basis.

Here's an excellent herd sire prospect that is an outcross to most of the red Sim Genetics out there. The combination of the added depth, thickness, and carcass value of Gold Rush and the maternal value of his dam really worked well. Temptation is a flushmate to the Superman bull that sold to Crosshair Simmental in 2015. I have five of these flushmate sibs and they all are excellent footed, beautiful uddered, productive females that you could build a program around. Ratios of 103 BW, 105 WW, 101 YW, top 10% API and top 3% TI. DNA HD tested.

One of the first Baltics to sell and the only one in the Bulls of the Big Sky Sale this year. He is a very clean made, fancy calf and appears like he could be a calving ease prospect. We really like the Baltics and expect great things from him in the future. Take a look at the scan data on this bull. He ratioed 111 IMF, 92 BF and 104 REA.

We retained some semen on Gold Rush in 2015 because we liked the depth and carcass value we hoped he would bring. He has done those things and we are very pleased with the results. This bull would be a excellent choice to use on Angus or percentage cows to increase REA and cutability. Ratios of 103 BW, 104 WW, 102 YW, and 102 REA.

624D is a thick, deep, wide based, red bull that will add pounds to your calves. He has been a favorite from birth that is stout structured and big footed. This bull's ADG was 4.12 pounds and the bulls are fed a growing ration rather than pushed for maximum gain. We want to maintain healthy feet and stomachs. He weaned off his dam at 790 pounds on August 18.

Buddy is a solid black with a star on his head little powerhouse. He has been super quiet and eager to be a part of the activities since he was a calf. He is one of the younger calves yet he has certainly performed at the feedlot. Top 10% API and 20% TI shows his ability to work in any situation and make some fancy calves. His dam came from the Nelson Mature Cow Dispersal Sale and we are excited to have her.

S44D is an ideal calf. He started at 80 pounds and weaned off at 895. His numbers are balanced from each end as well. He is long and powerful from a long standing cow family. Could be a great asset to any herd.

This was the first set of calves out of SRF Thunderbolt that came from the Edge of the West Sale. This is a nice moderate framed well muscled calf out of a Begger's cow that has done us a nice job over the years. His BW ratio of 104 and 111 WW ratio should excite some.

This Break Free son is a nice outcross. No Legacy on either side. Out of a first calf Monte heifer that ratiod 102 for WW. His numbers are solid across the board from CE though growth and carcass traits.

F66D was the calf you watched all summer. He really stood out next to his 1300 lb. dam, especially when he weaned off at 885 with a ratio of 125. His Olie dam is a little too quiet but he does get that laid back personality…except when it comes to eating. Over 4.3 ADG on test. Little bigger frame but lots of length and muscle.

U15D is a little courser made bull than the rest of his siblings, yet still has the muscle and usefulness that is needed. He is however out of a 2002 model cow. She has had 12 calves with a 364 day interval at a BW ratio 102. Her level of production has been solid and consistent for the past 14 years and she is still kicking. His ADG for the 2nd half of the test was 4.57 with an overall average of 3.73. Bulls are fed for a 3 lb. ADG.

The Z538 sire has done a great job for us, making some very nice bulls and females over the years. U42D is a prime example of the power and muscle that he adds to his calves. With a WW ratio of 107, he didn't stop there. U42D stood out at 4.31 overall on the test. Going over to his EPD's you will notice he is in the top 1% for 6 traits! Here is a pound maker bull.

Here is a performer! When you start at 81 and wean off at 955, things are working. He ratioed 127 for WW. His maternal brother was a favorite half Red Angus last year. This guy has a bigger splash of white on his head and a little more frame but lots of performance in real life and on paper. Solid numbers across the board landing him in the top 10% API and top 1% TI.

This is the first set of Convoy calves that we have had and we really do like them. Very clean fronted, good traveling type of calf. His BW was only 70 so he ratiod 110. Between his fanciness and his balanced numbers, he should make some nice calves.

QUICK GUIDE

to ASA EPDs and $ INDEXES

Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs): EPDs are the most accurate and effective tool available for comparing genetic levels. In using EPDs, the difference between two sires’ EPDs represents the unit difference expected in the performance of their progeny. For example, if sires A and B have EPDs 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 EPDs is knowing what units they are expressed in. For example, if the above case referred to weaning weight EPDs, 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 EPDs rank him relative to other bulls in the breed. For percentile rankings or more detailed information about EPDs and $ indexes visit www.simmental.org. Listed below are the units ASA EPDs 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 EPDs 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 well-conceived, rigorous mathematical computation, $ indexes blend EPDs 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 herd 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 and 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 EPDs, 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 buying 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 EPDs and $ indexes
