Quest of the West Cattle Sale by American Gelbvieh Association

Welcome to our 2015 sale! ~ Bott, Bunker, Loveless & Sorensen Families

PAP TESTING

Quest of the West Cattle Sale

Pulmonary Artery Pressure or PAP is an indication of a bull’s genetic ability to tolerate high altitudes. The higher the PAP score the lower the altitude the bull should be maintained at. Bulls that develop high altitude or brisket disease may or may not have a genetic problem, but may be the result of an environmental influence such as sickness, feed, or stress. Dr. Tim Holt recommends that bulls with a PAP score greater than 48 be used at elevations lower than 6,000 feet. All of the bulls at the Quest of the West Cattle Sale have been PAP tested by Dr. Rusty Truman above 5,000 feet. The heifers that were PAP tested were also tested above 5,000 feet. BREEDING GUARANTEES All bulls in this sale are guaranteed “breeders” the day of the sale. In the event a buyer finds a bull to be a “non-breeder”, he must immediately take the following actions: 1. Notify the seller within six (6) months of the purchase. 2. Return the bull to the seller at the buyer’s expense in healthy and good condition. 3. At that time, the seller may give the buyer a bull of like quality as a replacement, or give the seller credit toward the purchase of another bull at a later date. 4. Seller has the right to prove the bull a “breeder” before giving credit or returning the bull. 5. Guarantees do not apply to injuries (i.e. broken legs, stifles, reproductive injuries, etc.) 6. All guarantees are void in cases where the bull is fit for show, is subject to hormonal treatments, or has been subject to abuse in any way.

RISK & LIABILTY We the sellers of the cattle offered in this sale, will not be held liable for any accidents that may occur for whatever reason and those attending must do so at their own risk. The sellers and their staff, the auctioneer, Spanish Fork City and it’s staff assume no liability, legal or otherwise, for any accidents or loss which may occur. REGISTRATIONS & TRANSFERS All bulls, unless otherwise noted in the sale catalog are registered. When making settlement, please indicate if Registrations papers are needed. Each ranch will send the registration paper to the buyer if requested at the time of settlement. SIGHT UNSEEN PURCHASE OPTION If you are unable to attend the sale or view the cattle prior to the sale, we offer a “sight unseen” purchase option. Please call and give us your specs in advance of sale time and we will select and try to buy the bull(s) meeting your specs for you. If when you take possession of the bull(s) and if you are not satisfied, you don’t own the bull(s). CALVING EASE RECOMMENDATION Some bulls are recommended for use on heifers. These recommendations are based on available tools and knowledge: EPDs, birth weight, extended pedigree and past experience with both sire and dam. This does not mean that you will not have to help any calves, but hopefully most will come with little assistance. Each cattleman needs to base their decisions on their own program and herd. The sale catalog will be posted on-line as well as additional pictures as they become available at www.questofthewestcattle.net

Balancer Bulls Three ET full sibs out of a great 12 year old Bushwacker Angus female. She always breeds back and weans a big calf. Longevity is a trait every rancher needs to stay in business. Nothing costs you more money than open cows and late calves. The sire is Black Impact. He is a bull that we used to make functional females and add power to our herd, and he most certainly has done that. We sold an ET sib at the 2014 Cattleman’s Classic where he tied for the top selling bull. This is an opportunity to own one just like him. The difference varies with receipt cows and range. These bulls are all functional, correct and stout made. Homo black and homo polled.

Pricing A Bull We have all been asked to speculate what the prices of bulls are going to be from year to year. With the price of cattle in historic ranges, and the declaration of some economists that the “traditional” cattle cycle is dead, it may be hard to determine just what a bull is worth. Several people over the years have come up with formulas that could blow up any cowboy’s smart phone when trying to calculate the worth of a bull. However, even with all these new fangled formulas, there are some tried and true calculations that have stood the test of time. One of the formulas that has stood the test of time with history proving the theory shows that the price of three 800 lb steers is equal to the base price of one bull. We all know the expensive costs of developing a bull properly and the costs of making sure he is ready to breed cows. And we know that a quality bull will yield you more dollars than an average or lesser quality bull when you market your calves, but we feel the above formula (Cost of 800 lb steer X 3 = Base cost of a bull) is a good place to start in determining the base price of a bull. - 11 -

They are not leftovers, but were selected and held back right along with our replacement heifers. We feel that these heifers are well bred, have good EPDs and offer the style, femininity, capacity, structural soundness and disposition to make great mother cows and be an addition to your herd. The heifers were PAP tested at 5180 feet elevation and have been vaccinated with OneShot Ultra 8, Bovishield Gold VL5 FP, and poured with Dectomax. All heifers sell with registration papers.

Glossary of Terms IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER NOT TO COMPARE EPDS FROM BREED TO BREED! EPDs (Expected Progeny Difference): EPDs are a statistical measurement of a bull’s ability to transmit certain traits to his offspring based on his dams, sires and own production & performance record, as well as his own progeny’s record when data is submitted. EPDs allow for the evaluation of cattle of the same breed from ranch to ranch with out concern for differences in environment, nutrition and management. IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER NOT TO COMPARE EPDS FROM BREED TO BREED! The following are descriptions of the EPDs used in this catalog. CED: Calving Ease Direct is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. BW: Expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit BW to his progeny compared to that of other sires. The lower the EPD, the lighter the BW on average. WW: Expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit growth to weaning in his progeny compared to that of other sires. The higher the EPD, the heavier the WW on average. YW: Expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit growth to yearling in his progeny compared to that of other sires. Milk: A predictor of a sire’s genetic merit for milk & mothering ability transmitted to his daughters. %IMF: A predictor of a sire’s progeny for % intramuscular fat (marbling) in the rib eye compared to other sires. RE: A predictor of the difference in square inches of ultrasound rib eye area of a sire’s progeny compared to the progeny of other sires. FAT: A predictor of the difference in ultrasound fat thickness at the 12th rib of a sire’s progeny compared to the progeny of other sires. CW: (Sim) A predictor of the difference in carcass wt. of a sire’s progeny compared to the progeny of other sires. YG: (Sim) A predictor of the difference in Yield Grade of a sire’s progeny compare to the progeny of other sires. Like actual Yield Grade itself, the lower the number the better. $W: (Angus) Weaned Calf Dollar Value EPD quantifies four primary economic impact areas (BW, WW, Maternal Milk, & Mature Cow Size) and combined into an economic value expressed in dollars per head. $F: (Angus) Feedlot Value, an index value expressed in $/hd & is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for post weaning merit compared to progeny of other sires. $G: (Angus) Grid Value, an index expressed in $/hd & is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for carcass grid merit. $B: (Angus) Beef Value, a simultaneous multi-trait genetic selection for feedlot & carcass merit, & predicts the average $/hd difference in the progeny’s post weaning performance & carcass value compared to progeny of other sires. YG: (GV) Differences in yield grade score, which is a predictor of percent retail product. Smaller values suggest that progeny will have a better lean to fat ratio. CW: (GV) Differences in pounds of hot carcass weight, adjusted to an industry standard age endpoint. REA: (GV) Differences in ribeye area in inches between the 12th and 13th rib. Greater ribeye areas are preferable. MB: (GV) 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. FT: (GV) Differences for fat thickness, in inches, for a carcass over the 12th rib, smaller numbers of fat thickness are preferable as excess fat can be detrimental to yield grade.
