The bulls have all been fed together. Our goal was to average a 3.3# A.D.G. as we believe that fat bulls are not practical. The bulls have been vaccinated with 8 way, Cattle Master 4 (or equivalent), One Shot (or equivalent), Fusogard, Myco-Bac B, and Inforce 3. All bulls have been wormed with Dectomax poured with Clean Up II and have been fertility and P.A.P. tested. All bulls Trich and PI-BVD tested negative. Average daily gain and scrotal circumference will be available on sale day. Genetic Defects - we have searched all pedigrees to the best of our ability and all bulls selling are free from any known defects.
Bulls traveling to UT, WY, NM, and ID - All “Pot of Gold” bulls will have been tested once for trichomoniasis, found negative, and are ready to haul on sale day. The veterinarian will write a health and entry permit for you. Bulls traveling to AZ will require further testing that will take “extra time to get results.”
Hauling of Bulls/Feed - All bulls may be hauled directly from the sale or can be delivered to a central location as needed. Bulls can be fed at Sutton Farm and Feedlot for $6.00 per day until March 29th. “Pot of Gold” can help with these arrangements but the owner of bull(s) will be responsible for all vet costs, feed costs, and liability on the bull(s). For information or pickup from Sutton Farm and Feedlot call Bill Sutton at (970) 433-8126.
Dear Fellow Beef Producers,
Welcome to the 34th annual “POT OF GOLD” Gelbvieh and Balancer Bull Sale!
In the cattle business and agriculture, producers are always needing to make changes and adjustments to their operations to make things work. For Pot of Gold, our lease on the sale barn ended after last year’s sale and the new location for the sale will be at the Montrose Event Center in Montrose, Colorado. The Event Center is a fantastic facility, and we are thankful for Montrose County’s help in securing this facility for our use. Due to the change in location and new logistics, we have decided not to run the bulls through the ring. Instead, the bulls will be shown on big screen televisions during the bidding process. The bulls will be on site at the Event Center on Wednesday afternoon through Friday of sale week for your viewing. The pens will be set up near the sale ring. Please come early to pick the bulls that will work well for your operation!
As always, we will be offering high quality bulls that have been sorted to bring you only the best.
And something new to our sale is the addition of some top-end Simmental bulls and 20 open Gelbvieh and Balancer heifers.
Feel free to go by the feed pen behind the old sale barn at 62687 Jay Jay Road in Montrose anytime and walk through the bulls or give us a call and we will meet you there. Videos of the bulls can be found at www.gelbviehbulls.net one week before the sale. The sale starts at 12 noon (MST) on Friday the 28th of February right after a complimentary lunch.
If the weather is a problem, leave your trailer at home until you can pick up your bulls or arrangements can be made at the sale to have them delivered. Bulls can be left at the feedlot after the sale to continue to grow for $6 per bull per day until March 29th.
Calving and just can’t make the sale? Go to www.DVAuction.com and sign up ahead of the sale to bid on-line, or as always you can leave a bid with us. Thanks for your continued support and we look forward to seeing you at the sale!
Sincerely,
“Pot of Gold” Bull Sale
Please allow enough time to view bulls to make your selections ahead of the sale.

Combines growth and milk information to predict the weaning weight performance of calves from a sire’s daughters.
Calving ease direct (CED): Percent of unassisted births of a bull’s calves when he is used on heifers. A higher number is favorable, meaning better calving ease. This EPD can be vital to a rancher looking to decrease the amount of calves pulled in his herd.
Milk (Milk): The genetic ability of a sire’s daughters to produce milk expressed in pounds of weaning weight.
CED = calving ease direct TM = total maternal
Calving ease maternal (CEM): Represented as percent of unassisted births in a sire’s first-calving daughters. A higher number represents more favorable calving ease. This EPD is important to a rancher’s bottom line because it predicts which animals produce daughters with a genetic pre-disposition to calve unassisted as heifers.
Gelbvieh and Balancer® cattle offer maternal superiority through increased longevity, added fertility and more pounds of calf weaned per cow exposed. In addition, Gelbvieh and Balancer females offer a small mature cow size, more maternal milk and reach puberty at an earlier age.
BW = birth weight CEM = daughters calving ease
WW = weaning weight RE = ribeye area
YW = yearling weight MB = marbling
MILK = milk FPI = feeder profit index
Stayability (ST): Predicts the genetic difference, in terms of percent probability, that a bull’s daughters will stay productive within a herd to at least six year of age. The stayability EPD is one of the best measures currently available to compare a bull’s ability to produce females with reproductive longevity.
ST = stayability
Birth weight (BW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for birth weight of the calf.
TM = Combines growth and milk info. to predict the weaning weight performance of calves from a sire’s daughters
Weaning weight (WW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 205 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning.
U.S. Meat Animal Research Center data shows Gelbvieh females have the smallest mature cow size of the four major Continental breeds. The Gelbvieh breed was the only breed in the study to reduce mature cow sizeat an average of 1,382 pounds Gelbvieh-sired females had the lowest fiveyear-old cow weight.
Smaller numbers = fewer days from breeding to calving
Yearling weight (YW): Predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to a standard 365 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling.
This reduced mature cow-size allows for puberty to be reached at an earlier age, which leads to calving earlier in the season and producing a calf at a younger age. These females are able to wean heavier calves while still maintaining low birth weights and a tight calving interval year after year.
CED = calving ease, how sire’s calves will calve larger numbers = easier calving
CEM = how daughters of sire will calve larger numbers = easier calving
Ribeye area (REA): Differences in ribeye area in inches between the 12th and 13th rib. Greater ribeye areas are preferable.
Marbling (MB): Predicts the differences in the degree of marbling within the ribeye as expressed in marbling score units. Greater marbling numbers are preferable and are an indicator of higher carcass quality grades.
Gelbvieh and Balancer females also excel in stayability, which is the probability a bull’s daughters will remain in the cow herd until at least six years of age. With the high costs associated with the development or purchase of replacement females, sustained reproduction is essential in a herd.
For more information: www.gelbviehbulls.net Click on BREED INFO then to “Understanding EPD’s and How to Use Them ”.
Feeder Profit Index (FPI): An economic selection index designed to aid producers in selecting sires whose progeny will perform in the feedlot and are sold on a grade and yield standpoint. Well ranking sires for FPI have higher marbling and carcass weight than their contemporaries. As a terminal index, little emphasis is put on maternal traits such as stayability and calving ease.
U.S. MARC data, along with American Gelbvieh Association genetic trends, prove that today’s Gelbvieh and Balancer cows are highly productive, offering increased longevity, more manageable mature cow weights, early puberty, quiet disposition and have the ability to calve unassisted while delivering consistent growth.
How To Use EPDs
EPDs are used to compare sires within a breed. Environment is removed so bulls that were raised differently can still be compared.
BW, WW, YW, Milk, and TM are all expressed in pounds. The bigger the number, the more pounds you can expect.
Information Regarding DILUTER FREE: No gray calves when mating a diluter free bull to black or gray cows. All off spring will be black or red. 205 Wt. - This is the weaning weight adjusted to 205 days of age. For example: a bull weighs 650# at 220 days of age with an 80# BW 650# - 80# = 570# (weight gained in 220 days) 570# divided by 220 days = 2.59#/day 2.59# per day x 205 days = 531#
531# + 80# (birth weight) = 661#
With stayability and cow productivity being important factors in cowcalf profitability, adding Gelbvieh and Balancer maternal influence through a crossbreeding program is a great option for commercial producers.
Example: Bull A = BW of 3.2, WW of 68
Bull B = BW of -0.4, WW of 56
An age of dam adjustment is added so that the older cows or heifers can be compared to the average cow. These 205 day weights are figured by the animal’s respective breed office. These adjusted numbers are useful for within herd comparison where environmental factors are the same.
If you are interested in “Pot of Gold”
Bull A’s calves would be expected (on average) to weigh 3.6 pounds more than bull B’s calves at birth.
Bull A’s calves would be expected (on average) to weigh 12 pounds more than Bull B’s calves at weaning.
Scrotal Circumference is a measurement taken to help determine if a bull’s heifers calves will reach puberty earlier than any other bull’s and also sperm production is directly proportional to scrotal size. As of now there is no adjustment for age, but a 32 cm scrotal for a one year old and 36 cm for a two year old is a good standard.
If a bull had 100 calves born to him the average performance of those calves would equal his EPDs.
P.A.P. or Pulmonary Artery Pressure is an indication of a bull’s genetic ability to tolerate high altitudes. The higher the P.A.P score the lower the altitude the bull should be maintained at. Bulls that delvelop brisket may or may not have a genetic problem, but may be the result of an environmental influence such as sickness, feed, or stress.
All bulls have been DNA tested and have Genomically Enhanced EPDs for the most accurate EPDs available! More Informed Genetic Selection Decisions: Purchasing bulls with genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs) allows commercial producers to make selection decisions with less risk due to an increase in the accuracy of a non-parent animal’s EPDs. The addition of genomic data to an EPD is comparable to adding another source of information, like progeny or pedigree records. Specifically on lowly heritable traits, such as reproductive traits, genomic data has the potential to greatly increase the accuracy of an EPD prediction and can be demonstrated.
“The maternal strengths of Gelbvieh are a great advantage in my cowherd. These females are good mothers, have quiet dispositions, claim their calves at birth and milk well.”
- MATT JARVIS, PHILLIPSBURG, KS
Gelbvieh maternal influence in a crossbreeding system offers added fertility, increased longevity, and more pounds of calf weaned per cow exposed.
The crossbred female is 30 percent more productive over her lifetime. Greater productivity equates to more money in the bank.
Using Gelbvieh and Balancer ® genetics can increase profitability through heavier weaning weights, improved feed efficiency as well as heavier, faster gaining feeder cattle.

*When selecting an animal based on a PAP measurement other factors besides those listed above should be considered such as genetics or pedigree, PAP EPD’s , Systolic/Diastolic pressures, breed and previous illness.
*Special consideration should be given to the amount of time the animal was exposed to elevation (>5500 ft) prior to testing. The predictability and repeatability of the PAP measurement improves with longer the exposure to higher elevation (minimum of 4 weeks is required).
*This chart is based on animals greater than 10 months of age. Testing older animals (>12 months) results in a higher predictive and repeatability measurement.

The “Pot of Gold” bulls have been vaccinated, poured, fed, tested, and are ready to go to work on sale day but they are not mature bulls and are still growing. Bulls do not need to be fat at turn out, but you do want bulls that are healthy and have enough condition to use as a reserve when they are turned out and spend all their time chasing cows and not eating as they should. Yearling bulls may lose more than 100 pounds during their first breeding season so it is important to adequately feed them after servicing cows so that they are in good shape for the next breeding season.

The yearling bulls fed by Sutton Farm and Feedlot throughout the bull test and can be fed there after the sale for “Pot of Gold” customers. A maintenance ration will be fed that includes high quality hay and silage along with approx 5 lbs of ground corn. All owners are responsible for their own bulls while they are at the feedlot, death or injury are not the responsibilty of “Pot of Gold” or Sutton Farm and Feedlot.

Quality vitamins, minerals, and salt should be available year around and a high copper supplement used in areas that are deficient in copper whether at home or in the high country. Often times bulls that come home thin in the fall have not obtained adequate nutrition from the late summer feeds that are drying up. A constant supply of vitamins and minerals is essential for maintaining weight and growth.

Discussed on inside of front cover
Yearling bulls should not be kept or fed with older bulls because there is a greater chance of injury and the younger bulls can not compete getting to the feed bunk. Allow them adequate space in the pasture or in a pen for exercise. In the winter provide good bedding and windbreaks and in the summer shade and fly control.
Higher numbers means daughters should stay in herd longer.
Combines growth and milk information to predict the weaning weight performance of calves from a sire’s daughters.
It is best to use yearling bulls for a maximum of 60 days in the breeding pasture. Check frequently for injury, their servicing ability, and body condition. If at all possible do not put yearling bulls in the same breeding pasture as mature or bigger bulls.
Gelbvieh and Balancer® cattle offer maternal superiority through increased longevity, added fertility and more pounds of calf weaned per cow exposed. In addition, Gelbvieh and Balancer females offer a small mature cow size, more maternal milk and reach puberty at an earlier age.
U.S. Meat Animal Research Center data shows Gelbvieh females have the smallest mature cow size of the four major Continental breeds. The Gelbvieh breed was the only breed in the study to reduce mature cow sizeat an average of 1,382 pounds Gelbvieh-sired females had the lowest fiveyear-old cow weight.
This reduced mature cow-size allows for puberty to be reached at an earlier age, which leads to calving earlier in the season and producing a calf at a younger age. These females are able to wean heavier calves while still maintaining low birth weights and a tight calving interval year after year.
Gelbvieh and Balancer females also excel in stayability, which is the probability a bull’s daughters will remain in the cow herd until at least six years of age. With the high costs associated with the development or purchase of replacement females, sustained reproduction is essential in a herd.
U.S. MARC data, along with American Gelbvieh Association genetic trends, prove that today’s Gelbvieh and Balancer cows are highly productive, offering increased longevity, more manageable mature cow weights, early puberty, quiet disposition and have the ability to calve unassisted while delivering consistent growth.
With stayability and cow productivity being important factors in cowcalf profitability, adding Gelbvieh and Balancer maternal influence through a crossbreeding program is a great option for commercial producers.

Did you know that each year the American Gelbvieh Association recognizes females that exemplify the maternal traits that the Gelbvieh and Balancer females are known for?
Smaller numbers = fewer days from breeding to calving
CED = calving ease, how sire’s calves will calve larger numbers = easier calving
CEM = how daughters of sire will calve larger numbers = easier calving
For more information: www.gelbviehbulls.net Click on BREED INFO then to “Understanding EPD’s and How to Use Them ”.
The Dam of Merit honor recognizes cows that meet strict selection criteria including early puberty and conception, regular calving intervals and above average weaning weights on at least three calves. As of the cows assessed in 2022 only 5.32% of the cows assessed qualify for the Dam of Merit award.
EPDs are used to compare sires within a breed. Environment is removed so bulls that were raised differently can still be compared.
BW, WW, YW, Milk, and TM are all expressed in pounds. The bigger the number, the more pounds you can expect.
The Dam of Distinction award recognizes cows that meet the same standards, plus exhibiting superior, long-term productivity with at least eight calves. Just over 1% of all the active Gelbvieh and Balancer cows qualify for this elite group.
Example: Bull A = BW of 3.2, WW of 68
Bull B = BW of -0.4, WW of 56
Bull A’s calves would be expected (on average) to weigh 3.6 pounds more than bull B’s calves at birth.
Bull A’s calves would be expected (on average) to weigh 12 pounds more than Bull B’s calves at weaning. If a bull had 100 calves born to him the average performance of those calves would equal his EPDs.
First, EPDs do not indicate how many pounds will be added to a herd ’s average by using a particular bull. Only the differences among bulls are relevant. Second, EPDs can and probably will change on a bull as more information is added In fact, every bull evaluated will get a new set of EPDs the next time the American Gelbvieh Association and American Angus Association conducts another genetic evaluation Third, EPDs can not be compared across all breeds. G elb vieh a nd Ba la n cer E P Ds a r e n ow on t h e sa m e base with Simmental and Red Angus, which means that EPDs for each trait (except stayability) are directly comparable to Ameri can Simmental Association and Red Angus Association of America ’s EPDs. And finally, EPDs are one of several tools that should be used together in order to ensure that you find the best bull for your needs and long term goals. Factors such as fertility, struc tural soundness, muscling, and frame size should also be considered. EPDs are the best tools for genetic risk management available today.
