DRAKE SIMMENTAL Bull and Female Sale
1.28.22 Drake Sale Facility Centerville, IA 1:00 pm (ct)
Welcome to the Sale. On behalf of Drake Simmental, Drake Cattle Co., Harlan Cattle Co. and Iron Creek Cattle Co. We welcome you to the 2022 Drake Sale. The theme for this sale is higher quality in higher quantity, all backed by science. While we have been proud of the offering every year, we believe we have achieved our goal of offering even more elite genetic individuals for your consideration at this year’s sale. We continue to scour the country for genetics that offer you and us unique opportunities to excel in the ever competitive cattle industry. What do we mean when we say “elite genetics”? For us, the evaluation process is rigorous but straight forward. We start with the disqualifiers. No bull or female will be considered for our program unless it excels at calving ease, disposition (docility) and structural soundness. These traits are non-negotiable. Thereafter we will take as much growth, maternal and carcass merit as we can get without giving in to extremes. It is easy to be intoxicated by extreme weaning and yearling weights-but we want to make sure that weight doesn’t come with unsustainable size or feet and leg problems. For us, we seek a moderate framed animal that calves easy, has a mild disposition and sound structure as the base-and then we maximize growth, carcass and maternal traits on top of that base. Only by applying this philosophy relentlessly in our female retention and acquisition planning, and in our AI, embryo transplant and herd bull selection decisions, can we achieve the results we desire. With respect to herd bulls, our goal is for the calves out of our own herd bulls to have virtually the same genetic merit as the bulls we use in AI. We believe the 70 bulls, 24 bred heifers and 10 open heifers in this sale reflect the results of applying the above philosophy consistently over time. You will find in this offering scale crushing bulls with outstanding genetic merit and good looks. We believe that science, as long as it is not manipulated by politicians, is a key part of the path forward in beef production excellence. We are using two tools in this regard to improve the accuracy of the information we have for your review on each animal. First, as many of the bulls as possible will have genomically enhanced EPDs. Standard EPDs tell us what we should expect based on the performance of the animals parents and other relatives. Genomically enhanced EPDs are derived from an actual tissue sample of the animal and tell us what genes that animal ACTUALLY RECEIVED at the time of conception. This means the genomically enhanced EPDs are much more accurate in telling us how the individual animal and its offspring will perform. Second, we have utilized the RightChoice program developed by our partners at Allied Genetic Resources, which identifies those bulls with unique genetic value for calving ease (ACE designation), outstanding terminal traits such as added performance, pay weight and end product value (ATM designation) or genomic plus bulls that provide consistent, balanced genetic improvement for both cost reduction and income producing traits without genetic set backs (G+ designation). The process of evaluation combines the long-proven value of EPDs with very specific genomic information about the individual animal to determine in what areas, if any, that animal will excel. The above genetic analysis has been conducted on nearly all of the bulls in this offering. You will find bulls from cows whose genetics trace back decades on our farms as well as cutting edge genetics acquired from around the country. The latter includes bulls sired by the $44,000 Eagle and out of the number one All Purpose Index purebred female in the entire Simmental breed, the Matron F202 cow, as well as a son of the $85,000 EGL Firesteel bull out of one of the top donors in the country, TJ Miss 38W. The offering also includes two outstanding Angus bulls from our growing Angus program. Regardless of their backgrounds, however, you will find 70 elite balance bulls with the genetics to power your program to greater profitability. We once again offer an outstanding set of bred heifers set to calve shortly after the sale to the top bulls in the country (including a bred heifer carrying a Guardian heifer calf with a Planned Mating API of 189 due in February) and a set of excellent open heifers that will both show and be outstanding producers. All of the females were chosen from our “keeper pen”-you won’t find any culls here. We appreciate your interest in and patronage to our program and look forward to discussing any needs or questions you may have and to being one of your preferred genetics providers for decades to come. Thank you.

A Note from the Sale Manager Welcome to the 2021 Drake Bull & Female Sale! The Drake & Harlan families have no doubt outdone themselves with the deepest set of bulls and females to date. The Drake family’s storied history in the Simmental business has entailed Denver champions and consistent winners in the show ring. However, the dedication to deliver high valued commercial bulls has never wavered; this commitment can be felt from cover to cover in this offering. The beef business is looking bright as we enter into the early stages of 2022. Strong demand for beef and a shrinking US cowherd has created higher calf prices; this prediction goes throughout 2022. The time for herd expansion and prosperity in the cow calf sector of our business has finally arrived. If you have not made the trip to Centerville to check out the Drake offering the last few years, this should be the year you attend. This year’s offering is absolutely cutting-edge genetics which represent some of the finest performance genetics in the country; additionally, all of these maintain the striking phenotype associated with the Drake program. The blend of embryo transfer calves, along with proven producers from the Drake cowherd, truly make for an exciting offering. Every bull in the sale will be marketed with genomic enhanced EPDs along with the Rightchoice genomic screening. Be sure to check out the logos closely -- we feel this can be a valuable tool for customers. We hope we can have you join us January 28th at the new sale facility in Centerville. If you can’t be there in person, please plan on catching the sale on dvauction.com. Do not hesitate in giving us a call if you need any assistance. Sincerely, Marty Ropp and Corey Wilkins
Drake and Iron Creek Bull Guarantee We guarantee every bull purchased in this sale to be a breeder (defined as the ability to settle healthy cows by the time the bull is 18 months of age) with the exception of: • Bull calves sold at side of dam; • Injury or disease occurring to the animal after time of sale; • Negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the purchaser; or • Bulls shown competitively after sale. In the event an animal is claimed to be a non-breeder, the animal may be returned to us, at the buyer’s expense, if in good physical condition and the return is in compliance with the health requirements of the state of Iowa. We shall be entitled to a six (6) month trial period following the return in which to prove the animal is a breeder. If at the end of such six months we are unable to establish that the animal is a breeder, we will, at our option, replace the animal with another of equal value or refund the purchase price. Either option shall be deemed full satisfaction and settlement. All of the legal jargon aside, we view the bull guarantee as a good faith neighbor’s agreement with you. We will act in good faith to determine if there was or is an issue with the bull and if there is we will make it right with you. In exchange we ask that you act in good faith as well. Please manage the bulls with common sense-provide sufficient feed and shelter, keep in mind the bull’s age when turning him out and monitor his condition. A young bull turned out with 50 cows in a snow covered pasture eventually won’t breed cows-but it isn’t his fault. We appreciate your business and will always work with you to do what is right. Please also work with us and most importantly care for the bulls in a common sense way. Thank you.

Anthem is perhaps the overall standout in this can’t miss flush. Anthem ranks in the top 25% for 15 different traits and G+ ACE indexes and top 2% for 9 traits and indexes including top 2% calving ease, top 4% weaning weight, top 2% yearling weight, HOOK’S EAGLE 63 Sire of Lots 1-4. top 2% average daily gain, top 2% maternal calving ease, top 2% carcass weight, top 1% marbling, top 1% ribeye area, top 1% All Purpose Index (190.2) and top 1% terminal index (107.6). Don’t miss those stats-Anthem is in the top 2% for CALVING EASE AND GROWTH with a monster API and TI. You may get tired of reading it but our goal is to calve easy, grow fast and efficiently, have outstanding maternal and carcass traits and put it in an attractive, docile package. Anthem definitely carries the “look” to be an outstanding breeding bull and a semen seller. Note Anthem posted an adjusted weaning weight of 793 pounds and yearling weight of 1373 pounds off a modest 82 pound birth weight. You will note that Anthem’s RightChoice analysis confirms what his genomically enhanced EPDs tell us as he is BOTH an Accredited Calving Ease sire and a Genomic Plus (G+) sire. This bull is confirmed by the best genetic tools available to be an assured easy calving bull that excels in reducing risks and costs and increasing income from his calves. Seedstock and serious commercial breeders take a look at Anthem. S

IRON CREEK 1776 036J Sells as Lot 2. We may be as excited by this group of bulls as any we have ever produced. The dam is our lead donor, the $14,000 KBHR Matron of Honor 202F. Matron, for nearly 2 years now, has consistently been either the Number 1 or 2 All Purpose Index purebred Simmental female in the entire breed. She is extremely fertile and has bred on one straw of semen each year. Matron is a moderate framed beautifully fronted mother cow with a near perfect udder and outstanding maternal instincts. She moves on flexible joints and within an excellent structure. The sire of this group is the $44,000 Hook’s Eagle-perhaps the most used Simmental bull in the country in 2021. And for good reason. No bull puts the pounds on a moderate frame like Eagle. And they are docile and make excellent mothers. One of our first Eagle daughters produced the Lot 36 bull in this year’s sale that gained over 5 pounds per day and posted a 1582 pound yearling weight. Eagles flatout perform-either as bulls or cows. Buy one or all but know you are buying bulls that will produce and are capable of selling semen. Please study these EPDs-these bulls are absolute unicorns when it comes to calving ease, growth, carcass and maternal traits-Elite Balance Bulls all the way through.

SIMMENTAL AND SIMANGUS™ YEARLING BULLS
E3J is an Accredited GenomicPlus (G+) bull with an outstanding genomically enhanced EPD profile to back up this evaluation. Sired by the bull and female maker, Platte River E3J also stems from an outstanding cow family. A number of years ago dad had a June heifer that I just couldn’t take my eyes off of-she had “bull maker” written all over her. So I bought her (Summer Sunrise) and bred her to TJ Diesel our $20,000 selection from Triangle J Ranch that produced consistently outstanding females. The heifer resulting from that breeding has produced this exciting sire with EPDs in the top 30% for calving ease, 3% yearling weight, 5% yearling weight, 15% average daily gain, 10% milk, 2% maternal weaning weight, 4% docility, 35% API and 15% TI. Generations of excellence confirmed by genomically enhanced EPDs and the RightChoice genetic analysis.

ADG 3.94 If you want to put more fleshing ability and less feed in your cows, have a look here. X04J will sire great females and attractive feeder calves. Right Choice gives him a “G+” rating to put more profit in your herd. YW 1244

G128J represents a unique opportunity to obtain a bull with the great looks of a Franchise son and the great genomic G+ ATM value of an Eagle. His mother is an Eagle daughter out of our D651 donor that we call Girl Boss. Girl Boss is a massive bodied, broody, big milking female-so you can imagine what her Eagle daughter looks like. Combine that power with the good looks and strong genetics of Franchise and you get this outstanding package-phenotypically very attractive and powerful and even better under the skin. G128J is in an Accredited Genomic Plus (G+) and an Accredited Terminal Mate (ATM) under the RightChoice genetic analysis- a combination that assures you of general genetic excellence for low maintenance costs and high market value combined with specific excellence in the areas of pay weight and carcass value. His genomically enhanced EPDs place him in the top 35% of the breed for calving ease, 4% for weaning weight and yearling weight, 10% gain, 15% maternal weaning weight, 4% for docility, 25% for marbling, 10% for ribeye area, 4% for shear, 15% for All Purpose Index and 5% for Terminal Index. G128G went from an actual birthweight of 66 pounds to a yearling weight of 1302 pounds. A sire from the hottest genetics in the country positioned to move a herd forward in every economically important way. POWERED BY

IRON CREEK 22J
LOT
TOP GENOMICS
Another unique mating that combines two of the greatest cow families in the Simmental breed. 22J is out of the TJ 38W donor and LCDR Makin’ Waves, a son of the undisputed queen of Simmental donors, WS Miss Sugar C4. 22J is outstanding for calving ease (top 15% calving ease and top 4% birth weight) and again excels in the maternal traits by being in the top 20% for maternal calving ease, top 1% for maternal milk, 5% for maternal weaning weight, 15% for stay, 5% for docility and 15% for carcass weight. His top 15% API and top 25% TI reflect his over all genetic value. If you value the convenience traits of calving ease and maternal value then 22J is a bull to consider. Also consider him if you desire to reduce risks and costs and enhance your revenue as 22J has been identified as an Accredited Genomic Plus (G+) sire. IRON CREEK 22J Sells as Lot 34.
SIMMENTAL AND SIMANGUS™ YEARLING BULLS
The TJ 38W female is one of the most popular and prolific donors in the Simmental breed. The most recent of her many accomplishments include her son, TJ Teardrop, topping the 2019 Triangle J Sale at $40,000 and a daughter selling for $15,000 as the high selling open heifer at the 2020 Triangle J sale. We purchased these embryos in an effort to provide different and unique genetics to our bull customers and are pleased with the results. These bulls are calving ease and maternal specialists with great looks and backed by an iconic Simmental female.

SIMMENTAL AND SIMANGUS™ YEARLING BULLS
This bull excels in every way that matters to cattlemen and women. Sired by KBHR High Road and out of a beautiful Cowboy Cut daughter, he weighed just 76 pounds at birth and posted an adjusted weaning weight of 703 pounds and then gained over 4 pounds per day to establish a yearling weight of 1354 pounds. And what do the two genetic tests tell us about G959J? The RightChoice analysis reveals that he is both an Accredited Genomic Plus (G+) and Accredited Calving Ease (ACE) sire!! He will calve easy and pass on those genetics most important to lowering costs and increasing revenue – reducing your risk significantly. His genomically enhanced EPDs reflect elite balance across all traits as he is in the top 35% of 16 of the 18 traits and indexes including top 25% calving ease, 10% weaning weight, 15% yearling weight, 15% maternal calving ease, 5% milk, 3% maternal weaning weight, 1% stay, 15% docility, 25% marbling, 20% ribeye area, 15% shear, 4% All Purpose Index (165!) and top 5% Terminal Index. A low risk, high reward sire.
TOP GENOMICS
Need some power in your calves? Iron Creek G22J weighed 75 pounds at birth and posted an adjusted weaning weight of 777 pounds. He then gained over 5 pounds a day to post an adjusted yearling weight of 1582 pounds!!! And his genomically enhanced EPDs prove that his moderate calving ease and explosive growth are no accident. G22J boasts EPDs in the top 30% for calving ease, 3% for weaning weight, 4% for yearling weight, 3% for maternal weaning weight, 3% for docility, 5% for carcass weight, 15% for marbling, 1% for ribeye area, 4% API (166) and 1% for terminal index (98.1). This bull is as “can’t miss” as you can make one-sired by the popular KBHR High Road and out of a first calf Eagle daughter that stems from one of our most consistently high performing cow families. And if looks are important to you -rest easy as G22J displays a fantastic phenotype-strong topped, powerful and deep with a long clean front. This bull is in the top 35% of 16 of the 18 EPD traits and indexes and in the top 10% of 10! An Elite Balance Bull at its best. His over all elite genetic profile is confirmed by the RightChoice genetic analysis which confirms G22J as an Accredited Genomic Plus (G+) bull-meaning that he will eliminate a lot of the genetic setbacks that some bulls can bring and he excels in traits focused on cost reduction and income production. Less risk, less cost and more income-all confirmed by genomically enhanced EPDs and the RightChoice analysis.

Iron Horse 773J is a High Road son out of an outstanding first calf Eagle daughter that entered our donor program this year. Iron Horse ran with his dam at a different location and therefore we did not obtain genetic samples and he was not pushed on his ration. Rather he was brought along on mostly forage. Despite this fact he posted a weaning weight of 710 pounds and a yearling weight of 1218 pounds. His EPDs reflect his genetic value. Iron Horse is in the top 30% of 15 of the 18 traits and indexes measured by the American Simmental Association including top 25% calving ease, top 1% weaning, 2% yearling, 5% gain, 5% milk, 1% maternal weaning weight, 3% Docility, 5% carcass weight, 10% marbling, 1% ribeye area, 10% shear, 5% All Purpose Index (164!) and 1% Terminal Index (102!). Iron Horse will deliver easy calving, exceptional growth, strong maternal traits and top tier carcass value. He is a bull literally designed to do it all.
SIMMENTAL AND SIMANGUS™ YEARLING BULLS
KHBR HIGH ROAD E283 If you like a little extra frame and an abundance of growth you will be impressed with the High Road sons. The sons will push the envelope in terms of terminal merit not only increasing payweight but injecting carcass quality and yield. The KBHR High Road sons have also proofed to work extremely well in the fescue belt and will improve hair shedding.

B3J is sired by TJ American Fortitude. We absolutely love our Fortitude calves and we were sickened to lose him last G+ year. His calves are moderate in frame, massive in body and good on the move. You won’t see us sell many Fortitude daughters because we believe they will be outstanding bull producers in the future. This herd sire is out of our Summer Sunrise female we purchased from Larry and Carol Drake for $6,000 a number of years ago and she and her offspring continue to produce outstanding calves year after year. B3J weighed 78 pounds at birth, 691 pounds at weaning and gained 4 pounds per day to post an unofficial yearling weight of 1386 pounds. The RightChoice analysis identifies B3J as an Accredited Genomic Plus (G+) bull and his EPDs place him in the top 25% for weaning weight, 35% for yearling weight, 15% for milk, and 15% for maternal weaning weight. A sound, low risk bull with the genetics to cut costs and increase profits. • ACCREDITED GENOMIC PLUS •

Analyze this bull’s numbers and his looks and you will understand why we are excited by the Handyman calves. At G+ ACE the actual individual performance level he weighed a mild 71 pounds at birth, posted a strong 702 pound adjusted weaning weight and then….HE GAINED 5.06 POUNDS PER DAY TO ESTABLISH A 1502 POUND YEARLING WEIGHT!! His genomically enhanced EPDs back up all his performance data and show him in the top 10% for calving ease, 10% for weaning weight, 4% for yearling weight, 3% for average daily gain, 2% for maternal calving ease, 10% for maternal weaning weight, 1% for carcass weight, 10% for marbling and API and 3% for Terminal Index. One of the top gaining and top yearling weight bulls in the sale-all with a top 10% calving ease EPD and a 71 pound birth weight. Finally, the RightChoice genetic analysis establishes G937J as both an Accredited Calving Ease sire and a Genomic Plus (G+) sire. Elite balance on four legs. • ACCREDITED GENOMIC PLUS •

ADG 3.76 Love this bull. When you combine “Handyman” and Platte G+ ACE River you produce the ultimate female. Easy keeping, low maintenance, easy calving, good milking and nice disposition with EPDs like this. CE top 4%, WW top 30%, MCE top 10%, Milk top 10%, MWW top 15%, Stay top 4%, and TI top 15%. To top it off he ranks in the top 10% for API at 160. G202J is such a common sense bull that can do all this for you and make life easy. Dam is a first calf heifer and no creep feed. To add to this the Right Choice Analysis gives him the ACE logo meaning your heifer calving season will be more successful as these bulls will deliver consistent and predictable calving ease. Right Choice also gives him the ATM logo meaning he will add performance, pay weight, and end product value at market. YW 1265

Ok we are going to try this again. We sold a few outstanding Angus bulls in the sale last year and, while they were reasonably well received, we are not sure they were as appreciated as perhaps they deserved! We know many of MONTANA BLACKBIRD 7250 Dam of Lot 54. you come to southern Iowa in search of Simmental and SimAngus genetics and we are certainly pleased that you do. However, if you have not considered an Angus bull in the past, or if you have but just never thought to contact us, please take a close look at the two Angus bulls in the sale this year and evaluate their performance, pedigree and genetic value. Firebrand is sired by the $450,000 GAR Hometown and out of what one industry leader described as the perfect Angus cow, Montana Blackbird 7250. Blackbird came out of the Montana Ranch sale as a $36,000 powerhouse and has not disappointed. Firebrand personifies what Iron Creek Cattle Co is striving to produce- phenotypically attractive animals with broad based genetic excellence. Firebrand ranks in the top 20% of the Angus breed for birth weight, 15% for weaning weight, yearling weight and gain, 25% maternal calving ease, 15% for milk, 5% for marbling, 3% for ribeye, 4% $W, 10% $F, 2% $G, 2% $B (essentially the Angus version of the Terminal Index) and 2% $C (the Angus version of All Purpose Index). If we put Firebrand in the Simmental data base he is in the top 4% for calving ease, 25% weaning, 10% yearling, 5% gain, 1% maternal calving ease, 1% carcass weight, 1% marbling, 4% All Purpose Index and 3% Terminal Index. Firebrand weighed a mild 80 pounds at birth and grew to an adjusted weaning weight of 784 pounds and yearling weight of 1339 pounds. Outstanding Angus genetics that will compete with the best Angus bulls in the country for genetic value.

Full Measure is sired by the King-maker Poss Maverick (the sire of the $900,000 Poss Deadwood) and out of the $40,000 RB Lady Blaster female we own with Riley Brothers. A full sister to Full Measure sold in the recent Riley RB LADY BLASTER 412-7532 Dam of Lot 55. Bros. sale for $20,000 and she is one of many from the Lady family to be well received, including Lady Blaster’s $20,000 mother, Lady Comanchero and back to RB Lady Standard 305-0790 that sold for $55,000 to Whitestone Farm at the 2015 World Class Sale. Full Measure also offers broad based genetic excellence with genomically enhanced EPDs in the top 25% of the Angus breed for birthweight, 15% for weaning and yearling weight, 5% for gain, 3% milk, 10% marbling, 25% ribeye, 2% $W, 20% $F, 4% $G, 10% $B and 10% $C. If we place Full Measure in the Simmental data base he ranks in the top 25% for birth weight, 15% weaning weight, 5% yearling weight, 3% gain, 25% maternal calving ease, 15% maternal weaning weight, 20% docility, 1% carcass weight, 1% marbling, 15% API and 4% Terminal Index. Full Measure weighed 82 pounds at birth, weaned off at an adjusted weaning weight of 734 pounds and then gained 4.24 pounds per day to establish an adjusted yearling weight of 1412 pounds. A power bull with good calving ease and outstanding carcass value.

SIMMENTAL AND SIMANGUS™ AGE-ADVANTAGED BULLS
The fall bulls all ran on their mothers on open range all winter. After weaning they were placed on a simple growing ration high in forage. We wanted to experiment with bringing these bulls along in this manner instead of putting them on a gain test and pushing them. Given the fact we can now determine their genetic merit through the various genetic tests available we wanted to have them range ready and without any of the dangers that can come from pushing bulls on test. We may use this method on all bulls in the future, as we think you will like what you find with this group of powerful herd changers.

The appropriately named Iron Creek Brutus 601H is sired by TJ Platte River and the natural calf out of our 601D donor G+ ATM and features genomically enhanced EPDs in the top 15% of the breed for calving ease, 10% for weaning weight, 15% for yearling weight, 15% for maternal calving ease, 15% for maternal weaning weight, 2% for docility, 25% for marbling, 20% All Purpose Index and 10% for Terminal Index. This outstanding genetic profile was confirmed by the second genetic testing-the RightChoice analysis. Brutus is both an Accredited Genomic Plus (G+) and Accredited Terminal Mate (ATM) under this analysis. He is as risk free as you can find in terms of reducing costs, increasing profits and ramping up pay weights and carcass merit. And he is a lot of fun to look at. POWERED BY

734H is another Platter River son of the 29 B donor and has ATM a bit more grow (as confirmed by his status as a RightChoice Accredited Terminal Mate) and maternal power. His genomically enhanced EPDs place him in the top 35% for calving ease, 10% weaning weight, 15% yearling weight, 1% milk, 1% maternal weaning weight (his daughters will wean off scale busters), 1% docility, 35% ribeye area, 1% shear (extremely tender meat) , 30% All purpose Index and 15% Terminal Index. Again-tried and true genetics with superiority in the key profit traits.
Kuhlcat is the natural bull calf of the 29B donor and the $20,500 Platte River. This appropriately named guy is G+ ATM outstanding phenotypically and just as impressive genetically. The RightChoice genetic analysis finds Kuhlcat to be both an Accredited Genomic Plus (G+) and Accredited Terminal Mate (ATM) sire. Kuhlcat is in the top 25% of the breed for weaning and yearling weight, 1% milk, 3% maternal weaning weight (his daughters will wean off great pay weight!) , top 10% Stay, 5% docility, 25% marbling, 20% Ribeye area, 3% shear, 20% All Purpose Index and 20% Terminal Index.

We purchased Bea for $20,000 as our lead donor several years ago and she have been an outstanding development. In her first three flushes she produced over 100 viable embryos. She breeds on a regular 365 day cycle even with all of the embryo transplant work and is as quiet and docile as they are made. She is also passing her unique combination of massive body and sweet front ends to her offspring. We retain every Bea daughter in the herd and will for some time. They are simply consistently powerful and productive. Her sons will perform the same for you.

1471H is sired by Hook’s Full Figures and out of the 584 donor. We used Full Figures in transplant because of his elite G+ EPD numbers across the board and his moderate frame and “ease of keeping”. We are delighted with both the bulls and heifers and 1471H is a fine example of why. He is an Accredited Genomic Plus (G+) bull pursuant to the RightChoice genetic analysis. You will recall this is an indication that he will, genetically, reduce the risk of going backwards genetically speaking and that he excels in those traits related to reducing costs and improving profitability. Does he ever. 1471H is in the top 2% for ribeye area, 3% for Stay, 10% of the breed for calving ease, birth weight, All Purpose Index (160) and Terminal Index, top 15% for weaning and yearling weight as well as maternal weaning weight and shear, top 20% for gain, maternal calving ease, docility and yield grade and top 30% for milk. That is 15 traits and indexes in the top 30% and 14 in the top 20%. Elite balance bull. POWERED BY

584 is the epitome of elite balance-moderate and efficient in frame, perfect structure and strong EPDs across the board. Her first calf was a powerful Executive Order son that brought $8,000 in our sale. She went straight to the donor pen and has been a prolific producer of eggs. Like the 29B donor, we have retained every female our of 584 as they meet every criteria we have established to be retained in the herd.

Several years ago Iron Creek and Drake Simmental selected TJ Miss 9353F from the Triangle J Ranch sale for $10,000 and if you drove out into the pasture…you would pick her out immediately. There is a reason Dad had the word “best” written next to her in the catalog. She is big bodied, long fronted and just ideal. Full Measure is a son of 9353F and Full figures and is in the top 25% for birth weight, 30% gain, 10% milk, 20% maternal weaning weight, 10% docility, 15% carcass weight, 4% ribeye area, 30% shear, 35% All Purpose Index and 30% Terminal Index.

SIMMENTAL AND SIMANGUS™ BRED HEIFERS
We offer you an outstanding set of bred heifers that we believe will be long lasting, easy-fleshing, good milking, excellent calf producers. The EPDs and visual analysis back this up. Many of these were AIed to the breed top sires. TJ Handyman was the clean up bull that bred the heifers not AIed. Look at the three Handyman sired bulls in this sale and you can see what he does in both kind and EPDs. We’ve kept all the heifers he sired this year. The heifers were ultrasound preg tested and this was used to call the calving dates. We do not guarantee they will calve to the AI or calving dates we used. We’ve found in the past that this is fairly accurate.The sex of many of the heifers calves are listed. While this is very accurate we do not guarantee sex. We ask that you pick up the breds within a few days after the sale. Thank you!

The mating of F19H to Guardian creates a heifer calf that will be among the elite in the entire nation when born. The Planned Mating provided by the American Simmental Association indicates the calf will be in the top 1% for All Purpose Index (189!), Terminal Index (105.2!) and marbling, 3% for maternal weaning weight and stay, 4% for weaning weight, 5% for calving ease, birthweight and ribeye area, and top 10% for yearling weight and maternal calving ease. A rare opportunity to leap years ahead in genetics in one month.

ASA QUICK REFERENCE TO EPDS, INDEXES AND $VALUES
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 in what units they are expressed. For example, if the above case referred to weaning weight EPDs, sire A would be expected to sire 15 pounds more weaning weight than sire B. If calving ease was the trait, sire A would be expected to sire 15 percent more unassisted births in first-calf heifers; in other words, if sire B sired 30 assists in a group of 100 heifers, we would expect sire 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 more detailed information about EPDs and $ indexes, visit www.simmental.org. Listed below are the units in which ASA EPDs are expressed: ALL-PURPOSE INDEX (API): Dollars per cow exposed under an all-purpose-sire scenario. (See $ Indexes for more details.) BACK FAT (BF): Inches of carcass backfat at 475 days. 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 at 475 days. STAYABILITY (STAY): Percent of daughters remaining in the cowherd at 6 years of age. DOCILITY (DOC): Percent of offspring receiving a disposition score of 1 (docile). MATERNAL CALVING EASE (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in first-calving daughters. MILK (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk. MARBLING (MARB): Carcass marbling score at 475 days. MATERNAL WEANING WEIGHT (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk and growth. RIBEYE AREA (REA): Square inches of carcass ribeye at 475 days. TERMINAL INDEX (TI): Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario. (See TI for more details.) WEANING WEIGHT (WW): Pounds of weaning weight. YEARLING WEIGHT (YW): Pounds of yearling weight. YIELD GRADE (YG): Carcass yield grade score at 475 days. $ INDEXES: Though EPDs allow for the comparison of genetic levels for many economically important traits, they only provide pieces of the economic puzzle. This is where $ indexes come in. Through well-conceived, rigorous mathematical computation, $ indexes blend EPDs and economics to estimate an animal’s overall impact on integrated commercial production. 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 sires 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 are keeping replacements use API, if not, use 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. 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 more detailed information about EPDs and $indexes, visit: www.simmental.org Important disclaimer: DO NOT compare index values of purebreds of different breeds, hybrids of different breed composition or purebreds with hybrids - our system was not developed to make valid comparison among these groups. Therefore, you must first determine the breed and breed composition appropriate for your herd and use index values to compare animals within that population.
