2021 Annual Private Treaty Bull Offering
2021 Annual Private Treaty Bull Offering
We would like to invite you to our Annual Private Treaty Bull Offering at our farm. For the last
fifteen years, we have been working to improve our Simmental and SimAngus™ herd to meet the hybrid vigor demand that the commercial cattlemen desire. These bulls were developed on a TMR high forage ration consisting of corn silage, haylage, distillers grain, and free choice fescue hay. All of the bulls have tested negative for BVD-PI and Johnes. The bulls have been color coat tested, with the majority being Homozygous Black. The Genomic enhanced tests are pending. Please give us a call to stop and view the bulls or if you have any questions.
Bentley, Ethan & Seth Bush 5050 Gratz Road Owenton, KY 40359

Follow us on Facebook for videos and sale updates.
Give us a call or stop in and view the bulls!

QUICK REFERENCE 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: Calving Ease (CE): Percent of unassisted births when used on heifers.
Carcass Weight (CW): Pounds of carcass weight.
Birth Weight (BW): Pounds of birth weight
Marbling (Marb): Marbling score.
Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight. Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight. Maternal Calving Ease (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in first-calving daughters. Milk (Milk): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk. Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk and growth. Stayability (STAY): Percent of daughters remaining in the cowherd at 6 years of age
Yield Grade (YG): Yield grade score. Back Fat (BF): Inches of backfat. Ribeye Area (REA): Square inches of ribeye. All-Purpose Index (API): Dollars per cow exposed under an all-purpose-sire scenario. (See below for more details.)
Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario. (See below for more details.) Additional EPDs not shown in catalog: Warner-Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF): Pounds of force required to shear a steak.
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.
