We would like to welcome you to the 2018 Performance On The Platte Charolais Bull & Female Sale. A lot has happened in the last year. We continue to grow at a progressive rate. We have doubled the number of bulls we can offer and have decided to sell some females on the sale as well. We have grown not only in numbers but are also offering a higher quality offering, with a much greater depth of quality within the bull division. We are very excited about the offering you will see in this catalog. This year we have introduced some new sire groups, have utilized more A.I. sires and have also incorporated embryo transfer to more rapidly move our programs forward. We are using some of the most influential genetics the Charolais breed has to offer as well as some of the proven sires you have come to rely on in our programs. Even though we have multiple breeders with bulls in the offering, we are working together using similar genetics to offer a “Program” of genetics to you. This past year Charolais sired calves have made a major impact in the industry. Ranchers are really buzzing and looking to using Charolais sires in their breeding programs as these Char-X calves have been topping the market. Some of our customer’s calves have topped the market on Superior’s Video Auctions and at major sale barns in Nebraska and Kansas. This is very exciting to see, indeed. In the catalog you will find some full brothers, many ¾ brothers and bulls cataloged in sire groups so you can find half-brothers easily. Buying like genetics will help ranchers who purchase multiple bulls add consistency to their calf crops. Our bulls have been selected heavily for calving ease, above average growth, fertility, gentle dispositions and above average carcass traits. We like to stress selection pressure on Economically Relevant Traits that will help our customers become more profitable. We look forward to seeing you on sale day. Please call any one of us to answer questions regarding the sale cattle, directions or accommodations. If you would like to come view the offering before sale day, please let us know in advance. Videos will be available online in late January and if you are unable to make the sale, watch and bid online at www.DVAuction.com or call for phone bids. We sincerely appreciate your interest and look forward to doing business with you.

SELLING FALL POSSESSION & 1/2 SEMEN INTEREST • What a lot to start our 2nd Annual Bull Sale with. We couldn’t think of a better way than to offer some of the hottest genetics in the Charolais breed as our Lot 1. The sire of this bull, Outsider, is one of the hottest bulls on the market M&M Ms Carbine 1567 PLD commanding up to $800 per straw of semen. Outsider progeny have been dominating the major national shows and topping sales across the country. Outsider sold for $23,000 on the Thomas Ranch herd dispersal in 2015. His dam, M&M Ms Carbine 1567 PLD, brought $67,500 on the same dispersal sale. Speaking of impressive females and cow families, is Outer Limit’s dam, M6 Ms 104’s Zsa Zsa 687. The Zsa Zsa cow combines the well proven former ABS Global sire, M6 Grid Maker 104 PET and Thomas SwisserSweet (“Zsa Zsa”) a former National Champion female, who is also the mother to the infamous Firewater. You could write a book about the impact of the pedigrees behind Outer Limits, to say the least. • The Rennert’s and Vision cattle purchased a flush on Zsa Zsa 687 and knew they need to flush her to Outsider. The flush proved to be successful, producing Outer Limits and 4 full sisters to him. One of his full sisters sold this past fall on the Thomas Ranch Pasture Sale where she stole the hearts of many sale seekers to bring $15,000. • Now, let’s talk about what Outer Limits brings to the table! He was born with an 83 lb. birthweight, he weighed 875 lbs. at weaning to ratio 118 and continues to lead the pen as one of the heaviest bulls in this offering, surpassing many bulls who are over a month older than he is. He ranks in the top 20% CE; Top 15% for WW & Milk; Top 6% YW; Top 5% MTL & TSI. He is a true performance sire with a special look that the most discriminating cattle breeder can appreciate. • We feel confident enough in Outer Limits, that we are retaining Spring Possession and Half Semen Interest in him. The buyer of this lot will get 50% Semen Interest and Fall or late Summer possession. We feel he will be an impact sire and we hope you will as well.

RENN Recourse 708E

This is a powerful set of bulls that will put some serious pounds on a set of calves. They are the result of a flush we did with Resource and our proven donor, LT ETN Quinn 6346, who is the dam of last year’s high-selling bull at $9,250 purchased by Pesek Charolais. Quinn is a powerful donor female sired by M6 Grid Maker 104 PET, who produces deep bodied, easy fleshing, feed efficient offspring with extra muscle and body. These boys bring balanced genetics, with powerful growth and muscle in a “Rancher’s Kind” of package.

LT ETN Quinn 6346 is a proven donor cow we have had for a couple years. She was raised in the great Eaton program in Montana and was selected by Brent Thiel as a Pick Of The Herd purchased through the National Western Stock Show. She is a daughter of the great former ABS Global sire, M6 Grid Maker 104 PET, who is well known for making great females and is a carcass bull ranking very high for REA and Marbling. Her 2016 born son, RENN Lexington 6346 was the high selling bull in last year’s Performance On The Platte Bull Sale selling to Pesek Charolais. These full brothers sired by the $44,000 half interest Resource are among the top gaining bulls on test for this sale. They should offer moderate birth, impressive growth, efﬁciency and muscle along with strong carcass traits. These bulls were calved out of large framed, mature Angus cows. You pick which ones are your favorite, but they should all be a great addition to your herd.

• What a looker Trailboss is! He was one of our pasture favorites all last summer. He is out of an excellent ﬁrst calf heifer sired by Patriarch. His sire is the Charolais calving ease king LT Rushmore 8060. This bull will certainly be a calving ease bull as he ranks in the top 2% of the breed for Calving Ease and Birth Weight EPDs. Study this handsome bull as he is made really well with a lot of top shape, great shape of rib and is one of the most expressively muscled bulls we are offering.

PATRIOT X Y211 Flushmates This is a special mating! These bulls are the outcome of the first flush we have done on Nichole Y211. Y211 has been a front pasture female for us since she was acquired as a yearling heifer from the Raile herd in Kansas. Y211 accomplished the honor of being named Dam Of Distinction in the breed with her first three calves. Her only daughter has made a remarkable producer in our herd, and she has raised a son we used in our own herd as well as two other sons, one who sold at the Nebraska Cattlemen’s Classic and went to Zeisler Charolais. LT Patriot 4004 was the high selling bull in Lindskov-Thiel’s bull sale commanding $105,000. He is one of the greatest sons of the Legendary Ledger bull who has made a tremendous impact on the Charolais breed. The combination of these two great individuals matched very well and have been very consistent. The bulls were out of big framed Angus recipient cows. We hope you are as excited about these bulls as we are.

BULLS BY: HCR Patriarch 2502 Pld Those who have followed our programs certainly know who HCR Patriarch 2502 is. He has been our lead sire for the past few years and we refer to him as “Mr. Consistent.” Patriarch is definitely the most consistent sire we have ever found. Every one of his progeny have a similar look from the day they are born. He is a proven easy calving bull, whose offspring perform to our expectations. His first daughters are in production and you will see many of their first calves offered in this sale. We love his daughters, but more importantly his sons have done a great job for our customers. This is Pate’s third calf crop we are offering. Note his calving ease, moderate birth weights, solid performance and his predictable above average marbling. We are very confident in these sons of Patriarch.

BULLS BY: CCC WC Bud Heavy 903 Rennert Ranch and Vision Cattle had the opportunity to acquire Bud Heavy as a mature herd sire. Bud Heavy was a nationally recognized sire with many accolades. He was a very successful show bull who was named Reserve National Champion bull in Louisville and was also the Reserve Grand Champion bull at the National Western Stock Show in Denver. Bud was extremely heavy muscled, stout made, long bodied and stayed in great condition no matter the time of year. He offers a great outcross pedigree to many of the popular bloodlines in the breed. Unfortunately, Bud Heavy suffered a leg injury that he couldn’t heal from, and these will be his last natural calves offered for sale. We think you will appreciate the muscle, depth of body and stout construction these yearling bulls have.

BULLS BY: L DK Sniper 5155 Sniper is a new sire group to our program added for his outcross genetics. Sniper has a very low BW of 79 lbs.; a WW of 880 lbs (ratio 115) and a YW ratio of 108. His EPDs are really good and he ranks in the top 5% of the breed for WW. We used this bull as a clean up bull on heifers his ﬁrst year in service and he has some of the younger bulls in the offering. In 2017, we used him very heavily on 21 heifers as well as cleanup on another 40 heifers. At preg check time, Sniper did his job very well. He is siring calves with major capacity, a stylish look, solid performance and added muscle. Expect to see much more out of this sire group in the future.

We didn’t spend near that much on this bull’s mother. 7565 has a weaning ratio of 109 and his WW EPD ranks in the top 20% of the breed. This bull has a distinctive eye catching look, and a level, powerful hip. 7565 comes neat out of his shoulder, takes a long stride and is wide and strong down his top line.

Some of these are ET calves and out of some of our most productive cow families. There isn’t a female in this offering we wouldn’t consider keeping ourselves, so buy with conﬁdence.

• This is a highly maternal bred heifer with lots of cow potential. She will be moderate framed, wide chested, easy ﬂeshing and very productive. She ranks in the top 3% CE; 4% for BW; top 15% MCE and top 20% for Milk EPDs. Look at her pedigree. She could virtually be bred to any popular sire line as an outcross genetic piece. A maternal brother to this heifer sold in last year’s sale for $5,500.

• This heifer has an interesting story behind her. Her dam HC Leader 0086 was the Pick of the Herd offered by Hebbert Charolais and purchased by Wright Charolais out of the National Western Stock Show Sale in Denver. We purchased 0086 from Wright’s a few years ago and she was always one of our favorite pasture eye candy pieces. We recently sold 0086 to Tanner Taubenheim to be ﬂushed in a club calf program. This young lady has a lot of potential whether put to work in a purebred program or for a club calf breeder. We have retained a maternal sister to this heifer, so the cow family legacy will still have a place for us.

• This heifer would be a ¾ sister to the very popular M&M Outsider sire that is catching on like wild ﬁre. Outsider would be the sire to Lot 1 in this sale. We purchased this heifer’s mother at the M&M Dispersal and she is a good producer. This heifer’s WW Ratio is 102. We really like this heifer and would really love to keep her. She is very gentle, has great body shape and length. This is a young jewel who could be a solid asset to any purebred program. She ranks in the top 6% for Milk; top 15% BW and top 20% for Maternal Weaning Weight and above average for BW, CE & Marbling.

• Here is an ET heifer sired by Turton and out of the great donor Three Trees Vanna. There is a lot of cow potential in this female. She has great length of body, desirable sweeping rib shape and she is wide bodied throughout. She will be a powerful brood cow in time. This is one we should really keep.
