Improved Buying Confidence with Greater Genomic ASSURANCE

Access to more and better information has always been key to making wise decisions. The evolution and improvement of genetic evaluation tools too has given us an ever-clearer picture of the true genetic makeup of cattle and thus a better view of the value proposition. RightMate, powered by Top Genomics LLC is taking the evaluation of genetics and genomics one giant step further. By combining speci c genomic information with the long-proven value of EPDs, this new advancement in technology improves our depth and precision when evaluating the actual ability to transmit value and pro t.

The 3 Accreditation Logos below are designed to simplify bull selection and improve buyer con dence by more accurately describing the genetics o ered and by reducing risk. What this means to you as a customer is a much greater assurance that you are getting both what you want and need from the genetics you purchase. What it means to your seedstock provider is access to RightMate technology that simply sets them apart from the rest of the industry.

Welcome to the 2023 edition of the All Terrian Bull Sale hosted by Bridle Bit Simmentals. Once again the Cook Family, along with the genetic providers Far Out Cattle Ranch and Jones Red Angus, has assembled a set of genetics who will push the industry in a positive direction.

Each bull in the offering was carefully mated to create the most genetic potency possible while maintaining the basic build and phenotype it takes for cattle to thrive in the environmental challenges southeast Colorado offers. Every animal in the offering has genomic information as well as the RightChoice accreditation. The operations involved in the sale are on the leading edge of feed intake data across the industry.

The increased input costs our industry is facing highlight the importance and need for more genetic providers to monitor feed intake. The optimism in the beef business can be felt in feeder cattle prices and the continued demand in high quality American beef. The dwindling US cowherd and the ample moisture in the country points out the need to expand. The opportunity to build back with balanced maternal genetics presents itself March 20. We hope you can be with us on sale day. The bulls will absolutely not disappoint, and the females sold in this sale are making huge impacts across the country. If we can be any assistance, please do not hesitate reaching out to us.

Sincerely,

Marty Ropp, Corey Wilkins and Jared Murnin
