36 Annual Bull Sale th
Saturday April 4, 2015 • 2:00 P.M.
Welcome
to the 36th Annual Towaw Bull Sale.
The last year has been a very good one here at Towaw. We had ample rain and sunshine, producing very good pasture, hay and grain crops. We weaned off as good a group of calves as we have ever produced in our 40 plus years of raising Purebred Red Angus. Mom and Dad continue to enjoy good health and are still spending part of the winter in Arizona. Thomas is over a year past his treatments and is growing like a weed. The twins are enjoying showing cattle and school and cheer activities. As a family we got to spend quite a bit of time at junior shows and really enjoyed it. Jill has also started selling livestock insurance as a new venture.

Kirk & Jill Wildman Thomas, Ryder & Reese
In last year’s catalog we talked about how good of a time it was to be in the cattle business. We wrote about buying price insurance to guarantee $1145 calves and $1445 yearlings. Well the market definitely blew by those numbers and cattle producers had their most profitable year in recent memory! The cattle numbers are down and we, as producers, are certainly reaping the benefits. The markets should be good for another couple of years yet, but this is also a time to look to the future when the prices may start to dip a bit. With the outstanding commercial market it has been easier for us to cull the bulls hard. Of the bull calves born in 2013, only about 40% are on offer in the sale. A big part of your bull purchase this year is not only his calves next spring, but also his daughters’ having their first calf three years from now. We have based our cowherd on the strong economic principles of fertility, longevity and easy fleshiness, and these traits are passed on to their sons. Towaw genetics are right for these times but will also not leave you in the lurch when every cow has to pay her way on a tighter budget. Once again this year Dave, Rhonda, Brooke and Bryce from Rainbow Red Angus are consigning a strong group of yearlings to the sale. Dave and his crew have always been a strong part of the sale and their exciting offering is chock full of new genetics highlighted by their embryo program. Kolby Heaven has been working with Rainbow, as well as our herd, and knows the genetics as well as any of us. All bulls in the sale sell with the same guarantee, and if a problem occurs please contact us so we can work to rectify the situation. We will be starting the sale at 2:00 pm MST. We feel this gives folks time to get things done at home and still have time to look at the bulls prior to the sale. If you can’t make it to the sale we have a sight unseen purchase plan as well as a number of sales staff that would be able to bid on your behalf. We are also working with DLMS who will have the sale broadcast on the internet. The DLMS information will be displayed on future pages where Mark Shologan and his crew can get you set up to bid online. Please join us for lunch prior to the sale, and a meal and refreshments after the sale as well. After a long build up to this day, it sure is nice to relax and visit with customers and friends, both old and new.

Towaw Bull Warranty
Towaw Cattle Co. and Rainbow Red Angus guarantee to sell you a bull that is structurally sound, and a bull that has passed a semen test conducted by a licensed veterinarian.
In short, we guarantee to provide you with a sound breeding bull. If he hasn’t passed a semen test, he doesn’t sell. Should any animal fail to be a satisfactory breeder, he will be replaced with a bull of equal value. Should this not be possible, an adjustment will be made to reflect the bull in question, as a credit towards the purchase of another bull. In no case shall credit exceed the purchase price of the bull. We however, will not provide replacement or adjustment for physical injury or mismanagement. Bearing this in mind, we stress the importance of insurance on your bulls. Should you have a problem with your bull, please call us right away, and we will work with you to make sure you are satisfied with your bull.
Sale Terms
Retained Interests
We are selling some bulls in this sale as 2/3 interest and full possession. The 2/3 interest part means that the seller wishes to retain a 1/3 interest in the bull entitling him to use the bull through artificial insemination and sharing in any future drawing expenses and revenue of semen on a 1/3 basis. Full possession entitles the new owner to all physical rights to the bull. As in any other information, announcements from the block take precedence over any written information in the catalog.

Glossary of Sale Information Abbreviations
EPDs: Expected Progeny Differences
CE: Calving Ease, U =Unassisted BW: Actual weight at birth WW: Weaning weight in lbs. Adjusted to 205 days. WI: Weaning Index - Weaning weight as a % of average WW of contemporaries. YW: Yearling weight in lbs. - calculated as adjusted 205 day weight + (ADG on feed x 165 days) YI: Yearling Index - Weight gain from Weaning to Yearling as a % of average gain of contemperaries. AOD: The actual age of the dam when she calved the bull offered for sale.
EPD’s are a powerful tool that is available for making genetic progress. EPD’s incorporate the performance of the individual, along with the performance of all its relatives. CE: Calving ease - the higher number predicts more calving ease. BW: Birth. A lower EPD predicts lower birthweights. WW: Weaning. High weaning EPD’s predict higher weaning weights. YW: Yearling. Higher yearling EPD’s indicate greater expected yearling weights. MILK: Milk EPD should be used to predict the milking ability of the daughters of the bulls in question. Higher milk EPD’s project more milk.
NOTE: All Indexes are calculated within herds, as management may differ somewhat.
Weights and Scrotal Measurements will be available Sale Day.

Donation Heifer
This year Towaw will be donating a heifer with the proceeds going towards two very worthy causes.
Thomas has started training to run two 5km charity runs this summer. All proceeds will go towards sponsoring him in his effort to raise money for the Stollery Children’s Hospital and the Kids With Cancer Society. We will sell tickets in the Dutch Auction Format, $10 per ticket, just prior to selling the bulls. For example, if you bid $100 you will get 10 chances to win the heifer in the draw immediately following the sale. Tickets will be available right up until the time of the draw as well.

Welcome from Wow, another year come and gone, and its bull sale time already! It’s been quite a change for the cattle industry in the last year and cattlemen are finally reaping rewards that are long overdue. We at Rainbow Red Angus are here for the long haul and over the last year have undergone some big ventures to ensure we can provide the industry with the best genetics possible, for years to come. Each time we walk through this year’s bull pen, the same thought continues to come to mind, THIS IS THE BEST SET OF BULLS WE HAVE EVER PRODUCED! Top to bottom they are a group that is more than capable to service your cows and heifers. There are several new sire groups including our new calving ease bull, Turbulence, the production oriented Endorse and Traverse bulls, and our ever reliable power bulls by Recoil.
Dave & Rhonda Bablitz Brooke & Bryce
The bulls are all fed at home, and are available for viewing anytime prior to the sale along with the cowherd. They are fed a pelleted bull ration from HiPro that is spcifically designed with their future in mind. For any question or to arrange a tour don’t hesitate to call Dave (780)785-9115 or Kolby (780)778-1435.

Real feature here. Authority is a flushmate to Red Rainbow Lark 2B, the heifer calf we sold this fall for $26000. She was the heifer calf champion at Olds, Farmfair and Agribition, and a class winner in Denver. Authority himself is as deep sided as they come, with an awesome haircoat and a real good foot under him with lots of heel. He’s attractively made through his front end, is clean chested and broad muzzled. His sire is starting to gain recognition in the breed for producing outstanding females and his dam is our leading donor. Authority is no slouch on paper either, being in the top 5% for WW,YW, TM, CW and REA.

The group of calves we got out of this mating lived up to the extremely high expectations we had for them. These two are big, stout beef bulls, Roadhouse was the Agribition Sr. Bull Calf Champion and is a super heavy muscled, hairy, deep sided bull with a moderate birth weight and lots of performance. Bushwacker is one of the hairiest bulls in the pen, has an amazing temperament and continues to improve every day.

Fast forward a year and Tacoma 8B is now catching the eye of every visitor through the bull pen. Tacoma is absolutely packed with maternal power. His phenomenal dam is an ideal angus female with stunning phenotype, awesome feet, dark red hair coat and a flawless udder. 8B himself has dark red hair, well-shaped black feet, is very balanced and has large, perfectly shaped testicles. On paper he has very balanced EPD’s and is in the top 15% for Maternal Calving Ease, top 15% for Marbling and top 5% for Back Fat.

She is also the mother of last year’s high seller, Defiance, who sold to Meadowvale M Red Angus and Phantom Farms in SK. This bull is a truly unique red angus bull and those that have seen him agree.

black red gene carrier No need to adjust your eyes… he is black! When the Geis Angus program dispersed we thought it was the perfect opportunity to add some different genetics to our herd, in the form of black angus. His mother was at side the high selling cow that day and two years later she is just as impressive as her prolific dam. 49B himself has a low birth weight, 68 lbs, and a 1321 lbs yearling weight! He is moderate framed, extremely hairy and big middled. Being a red carrier he is a little something different with the same old predictability we strive for.
