Dear Cattlemen,

The recently released 2015 American Angus Association Annual report will document that despite a pullback in commercial cattle industry volume and profitability, all things Angus are on an upswing. Angus registrations are up, new membership enrollment is up, 2015 prices for AL & JEANNE CONOVER 641-227-3537  Fax: 641-227-3792 Angus bulls and females set new records and collectively Angus breeders earned $110 million Email: conover@conoverauction.com more than the prior fiscal year. The Certified Angus Beef program sold 896 million pounds of www.conoverauction.com DAVE SWEENEY 641-373-4340 CAB branded product, the 9th consecutive year of record sales. Even more intriguing is the fact that we set all-time high CAB brand acceptance rates indicating the increasing value of Angus genetics focused on end users. With that being said, it is no time to rest on our laurels. Instead we need to keep “moving the chains” with adoption of new technologies, fresh genetics and a positive attitude which insists that each of us continue to invest in Angus cattle that will accomplish our production goals. The Midwest Connection Sale is one of those opportunities. We invite you to inspect this catalog offering and, even more, attend this prestigious annual Angus event. As always, we invite your pre-sale inquiries and will look forward to greeting our many friends in Bloomfield Iowa on December 20th. Al and Jeanne Conover

Individual Performance: BW 90 lbs, 205 Wt. 890 lbs, WWR 115 with 14 contemporaries. Dam’s Production: 1 NR 115. Scrotal EPD I+1.07. A high level herd sire prospect with individual performance, pedigree and EPD values to back up his exquisite phenotype. His dam is a ﬁrst-calf heifer that came to PS Farms as a bred heifer in the 2014 EXAR Big Event Sale. Her dam, Sitz Henrietta Pride 285U is a $195,000 maternal sister to Sitz Upward 307R, now featured in the Deer Valley ET program. This promising bull is from the second calf crop by EXAR Denver 2002B who was the lead bull in the Grand Champion Carload of Bulls at the 2013 NWSS. He set a record price in the breed when he sold one-third semen interest for $340,000 at the 2013 Express Ranch Sale. This bull ranks in the 5% or better for WW, YW, RADG, RE, $W, $F, and $B while maintaining a CED in the top 20% of current sires. PS Denver Pride 503 will put production and growth into your herd. He is one of the stoutest, biggest ribbed, heaviest muscled bulls in PS history. He is truly a herd bull that will add pounds to the next calf while demonstrated exceptional docility.

Today he is an ABS Global sire that is a four star carcass trait bull in their system. Safeguard has an excellent over-all EPD proﬁle culminating with a $G and $QG in the top 1% as well as a $B in the top 3% of proven sires. • Her sire, Hoover Dam, is a high accuracy calving ease bull that sires tremendous muscle expression, functional soundness and eye appeal.

• The donor dam, SAV Blackcap May 1657 comes from one of the great cow families at Schaff Angus Valley. She has had a tremendous year since selected by Justin Dikoff. Justin would like to thank all the progressive cattlemen that have purchased eggs out of her. Thirty-seven embryos at three auctions have averaged $807 an embryo. • Her dam is the legendary SAV Blackcap May 4136 who has had a tremendous spring by selling a son for $725,000 at the 2015 SAV bull sale plus numerous other high sellers. She is also the dam to the $110,000 SAV Resource whose calves have been sought after all spring. Also sons of hers: SAV Renown, SAV Recharge, SAV Rocky Mountain and SAV Heritage which is the sire to the $275,000 SAV Harvestor. Plus numerous others. • SAV May 2397, the foundation 3rd dam, is a maternal sister to SAV Density and SAV Providence. She is also the dam to SAV Angus Valley 1867. • Embryo sire Barstow Cash was the talk of the 2012 sale season when he sold $108,000 1/3 interest to become the record selling bull at Barstow Angus. Cash is a calving ease bull with strong growth and carcass values. His $W value ranks easily in the top 1% of nonparent bulls. Cash semen demand exceeds the supply, consequently it is in great demand. • Embryo sire, Plattemere Weigh Up K360 is the top YW EPD bull in the Select Sires lineup. His Pathﬁnder dam, Barbara of Plattemere 337, by Retail Product is now an elite donor at Deer Valley. • EXAR Lutton 1831 is the now-deceased Express Ranches herdsire that sired a slew of show ring championships. His rare and nearly non-existent semen sold for $800 per straw at the recent Sharing in the Progress Sale. Lutton in-turn sired Plainview Lutton E102 “Lut” who topped the 2005 Styles Plainview Angus Sale at $17,500 and has gone on to make Angus history of his own. Lutton is also the grandsire of Dameron First Class.
