Wendell & Nan Gibbs

Congratulations on being named the 2016 Alabama Farm of Distinction!

Wendell & Nan Gibbs with their grandchildren

Welcome once again, to our 11th Annual Bull & Replacement Female Sale. We would like to humbly ask our past, present and hopefully some future customers to help us verify what many have already said . . . this is our best sale offering ever. Your opinion and patronage means the world to us. This year, we are excited about a new sale day experience for our customers. No sale animals will come through the ring like in years past. Instead, the sale will be a total video presentation of each sale animal with large screen TV’s in the sale arena. The sale animals can be seen far better on the video than when in the sale ring. These same videos will also be available on our website for your viewing prior to the sale. The sale cattle will be in their usual location, the grass display lots, same as in past years. The sale ring has been removed and the flooring in the facility has been changed to concrete. Seating at tables with chairs will now be available along with our new aluminum bleachers. Here at Gibbs Farms, we strive to produce superior genetics so our customers have the most success, and merit the most income from their calf crop. We are always striving to improve our herd by acquiring and using the best young sire genetics available in the industry. We believe if you are not moving forward you are moving backwards. We welcome you, and think that this is going to be THE year to take advantage of the most value for your hard earned dollar. In addition to the information provided in this catalog, we will have updated DNA enhanced EPD’s and additional DNA test results for hair color and polled. This will be available on our website and at the sale. If you aren’t able to attend the sale or download the updated information from our website, please contact us ahead of time and this information can be emailed or faxed to you. As already mentioned, sale animals will be available for viewing in large grass lots all day Thursday and Friday of sale week and someone will be on hand to answer any questions you might have. We will also provide pasture tours on Friday to view the many new sire groups of young cows with fall born calves. Light refreshments will be available throughout the day on Friday, followed by a cookout with the Gibbs Farm family & crew at 5:00 PM CT. Following the cookout, a “Round Table Discussion” will be held at 6:30 PM CT with Gordon Hodges, Marty Ropp of Allied Genetics, Nate Jaeger of Alabama Farmers Federation, and a few others. Please plan to join us on Friday. We hope to see you all soon, Wendell, Nan and the entire Gibbs Farms crew

Beef Producer Round Table Discussion Moderators will include... Marty Ropp, Allied Genetic Resources Nate Jaeger, Alabama Farmers Federation Gordon Hodges, Gibbs Farms employee & ASA Eastern Region Trustee You bring the questions, we all discuss & everyone benefits! This was a huge success last year. We had about 25 beef producers, livestock agents, and industry leaders in attendance from AL, GA, FL, MS, TN, SC, NC, VA, and IL. We discussed any topic suggested,

giving everyone a chance to become involved and to hear others opinions and suggestions on various topics. We discussed EPD’s, economic index values, necessary customer service from your seedstock supplier, what is “added value” and when does it start, when does it end, great discussion on herd sire selection, and most importantly was the discussion on marketing feeder calves. As a direct result of last year’s Round Table Discussion, a new coop producer group was established for marketing feeder calves. Please, make plans to be with us & join in the discussion . . . it will benefit us all! 11th Annual Bull & Replacement Female Sale | 1

New this year!

sale day video presentation

Our sale this year will be a complete video presentation. The sale ring has been removed from our sale arena and will be replaced by big screen TVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pointing in every direction. Most of our customers are already accustomed to attending video sales at other places and seems we were one of the last to convert. If you have not attended sales that use the video screen presentation, the one really surprising thing is you can actually see the sale animals much better on the big screen TV than you can in the old traditional sale ring. The cattle will still be on display in the grass lots around the sale barn like previous years, nothing changed there at all.

Video catalog available A complete video sale catalog will be available for viewing by the end of October. Every sale animal will have a professional video included in the video catalog. The video footage was taken by Garrett Thomas from Allied Genetic Resources with editing and assemble of the video catalog done by DVAuction.

Sale Terms | Familiar Faces

Sale Terms Herd Health... Every sale animal and the entire Gibbs Farms breeding herd is properly vaccinated and boostered annually for 7-Way Clostridium, IBR-BVD-BRSVPI3, Hamophilus Somnus, Pasturella, Leptospirosis, and Vibriosis. All heifers are calfhood vaccinated for Brucellosis and every calf born on the farm each year is tested for BVD-PI. All animals on the farm are treated at least twice annually with a parasitic pour-on and at least once annually with Safe-Guard drench. All bulls have successfully passed a complete breeding soundness exam.

Professionals

We Depend on...

Mike Jones & Ron Kreis

Guarantee on the Sale Females... Every open heifer selling is guaranteed to be open at the time of the sale and guaranteed to be a satisfactory breeder provided they are managed for proper and acceptable nutritional and physical health. In the event a heifer proves to be a non-breeder, the customer must contact Gibbs Farms on or before May 15, 2017 to make a claim. A veterinarianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statement will be required and Gibbs Farms reserves the right to have the heifer returned if deemed necessary. The customer will be given a full credit (minus salvage value of the original heifer) to be used in a future Gibbs Farms Sale. Every bred female is guaranteed to be bred on sale day as stated in the sale catalog or as updated from the auctioneer at the time of the sale. In the event any bred female is found to not be bred as represented when sold, the customer needs to contact Gibbs Farms immediately and no later than May 15, 2017. The customer will be given a satisfactory credit on a future Gibbs Farms Sale. Remember: All potential claims must be made to Doug Gibbs or Gordon Hodges at Gibbs Farms on or before May 15, 2017. Genetic Conditions . . . The knowledge and testing technology for all types of genetic conditions is almost changing daily. What we knew to be policy yesterday may be obsolete today. Our policy at Gibbs Farms is to fully follow and abide by any and all testing and reporting policy pertaining to genetic conditions as recommended by the American Simmental Association. We further state that our personal policy is to not market any animals known to be carriers or suspected of being carriers of any genetic conditions classified by the ASA as lethal and/or high occurrence. On any animals known to be carriers of other non-lethal genetic conditions that the ASA recommends testing, we will test and provide results on any animals marketed. For full disclosure and explanation of all genetic conditions monitored by the ASA, please refer to the TraitTrac shown on their individual pedigree on the ASA website. Retained Semen Revenue Interest... Gibbs Farms retains a 1/3 semen revenue interest in each bull selling. On every bull, you are purchasing full possession, full salvage value, full decision making, and 2/3 semen revenue interest. The Gibbs Farms retained interest only comes into play if semen is marketed on a bull. Guarantee on the Sale Bulls... Every bull selling is guaranteed to be sound on sale day to the best of our knowledge and has successfully passed a complete breeding soundness exam performed by Dr. Phillip Wilson within 60 days of sale time. Full Purchase Value Extended Warranty on the Sale Bulls... Every bull selling carries a 100% guarantee extended warranty for one breeding season, provided the bull is managed for proper and acceptable nutritional and physical health, not to exceed six months beyond sale day. In the event a customer has any problem with a bull (health, injury, or death) prior to or during the bulls first breeding season, prior to May 15, 2017, the customer should immediately contact Gibbs Farms to report a claim. A veterinarianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statement of the problem will be required and Gibbs Farms reserves the right to have the bull returned if deemed necessary. A replacement bull of mutually agreed upon quality will be provided if Gibbs Farms has one available with delivery expense to the customer not to exceed the Gibbs Farms Assisted Delivery amounts on regular sale day animals. In the event a satisfactory replacement bull is not available, the customer will be given a full credit (minus salvage value of the original bull) to be used in a future Gibbs Farms Sale. Gibbs Farms will not be held responsible under any circumstances for any settlement amount exceeding the purchase price of the bull. Remember: All potential claims must be made to Doug Gibbs or Gordon Hodges at Gibbs Farms on or before May 15, 2017.

No one can guarantee every animal will perform perfectly, but at Gibbs Farms we can guarantee we will make things right if they do not! 4 | Gibbs Farms 2016

SimAngus Bulls

Sons of

GIBBS 3393A STATEMENT

Since STATEMENT was the Lot 1 lead-off bull in our 2014 sale, we thought it only fitting that his sons lead off our 2016 sale catalog. Due to literally having no time off to mature & get ready for a photo, we do not have a new photo of STATEMENT yet, but he will be on display at our sale and we assure you, it will be well worth your time to go find him in our herd sire pastures. He has matured into the same look as his great sire. He came right out of our sale last year, successfully froze semen immediately, then bred cows at Gibbs Farms, then went straight to Baxley Farms to breed cows, and then back to collection again. After a short rest, he bred cows again this past winter/spring at both Gibbs Farms and Baxley Farms. It is unbelievable how he has matured with that kind of a work schedule, but he is photo ready now & we will be taking a new photo this fall before he goes back out with cows. The birth weights of his first calves a year ago looked much lower than we expected, so we bred some heifers to him last fall. We have calved them out this fall & had no issues at all. He may not be quite the extreme calving ease bull that his sire is, but we feel he can be used in well managed heifer calving and the early data shows that he will have much heavier performance than GRADUATE. In our opinion, STATEMENT appears to be a satisfactory calving ease sire that will offer great birth to yearling growth spread.

This is our pick of the four embryo full brothers out of the highly productive donor 8138U, but he simply would not participate with us on getting a photo the day Katie was at the farm, so be sure to look up his video, this bull will impress. His dam is one of those extremely high producers with low index values. We see what the index values say, but we also know what the facts state about her production. She has weaned five natural calves with the following average progeny ratios in large, highly competitive contemporary groups, WW 113, YW 111, IMF 97, REA 106, in addition to producing 27 embryo calves from only two flushes, one to STATEMENT in 2014 and one to SHARPER IMAGE in 2012. We retained 10 SHARPER IMAGE daughters from the 2012 flush and you will find progeny from those females scattered in this year’s sale catalog. They have proven to have inherited some of their dam’s +41.5 MM EPD and are going to be great producers. In our opinion, this year’s Lot 1 bull is about as complete, sound, and perfect frame size as one can be made for our environment. He was the heaviest at yearling of the flush brothers and literally blew the roof off his carcass ultrasound scan. When a bull with this frame size and an 1182 lb. yearling weight turns in an ultrasound scan with almost 17 inches of ribeye, there is no question how loaded he is with muscle.

Best way to describe this STATEMENT son is, “massive, sound, tank”, but that description sort of works for the whole sire group. From his first calf crop, it does appear that STATEMENT is going to pack loads of muscle and rib capacity into a smaller frame size, heavy package. The STATEMENT daughters have this same look and all of them remained in our replacement pasture. By this time next year we will be able to give a report on how they are looking as young mothers.

He also has the lowest BW EPD and the highest YW EPD of the whole sire group, a very unique combination of genetic prediction. His massive look and the way he travels on a perfect set of feet and legs will impressive all who see him. He will be a true sale feature.

The donor dam of Lots 9 – 15 and also the dam of STATEMENT, this ROOKIE daughter has produced 4 natural calves with the following average progeny ratios, WW 108, YW 110, IMF 108, and REA 107. She also has 14 embryo calves to her credit from the flush that produced this year’s sale lots 9-15 and we held her open this year for multiple flushes with plans to put all of those in this fall. Tracing back to the same cow family as 9024W, the lots 9-15 have a double shot of this great cow making pedigree. Also like 9024W, 0644X has a pedigree completely free of all SHEAR FORCE and LEGACY, making her another interesting genetic package to watch for the future.

This bull is about as close as it gets to putting all your eggs in one basket, he has it all. He stacks two of the most impressive, high producing young cows in our breeding program, both of which are total outcross pedigrees to the breed saturated SHEAR FORCE and LEGACY, and is sired by one of the most talked about young performance sires in the breed today. A very noteworthy trait of all the MOUNTAINEER calves is their great disposition, but this bull takes it to the extreme. He is an absolute puppy dog for disposition and structurally, he is as good as one can be made. We are going to hang our hat on this one as being possibly the most complete and interesting genetic package in the sale this year. Like all the bulls in the sale, we are only retaining our normal 1/3 semen interest in this great young sire, but we would be very interested in purchasing the fall breeding possession back from the new owner. We want to make this bull available to everyone, spring calving and fall calving herds, breeders and bull studs alike, but we just want it known that we think he is very special and would like to have him walk our pastures breeding one day if its available.

This is actually the heaviest performing brother of the flush and the one that blew the roof off his carcass ultrasound scan for IMF, making him easily the best overall profit index bull of the flush and one of the overall top index value bulls in the whole sale offering. If you want numbers stacked on numbers, stacked on more numbers, then he is the bull for you.

GIBBS 3133A MOUNTAINEER

There is currently more excitement about the MOUNTAINEER calves than any young sire we have ever produced at Gibbs Farms. They are coming small at birth, maybe not an extreme calving ease heifer bull, but sure below breed average birth weight with excellent calving ease. They are proving to have extra performance and growth and the early ultrasound scan data appears they will live up to his huge carcass predictions. As for maternal, he should be a “slam dunk” cow maker, tracing back to our old BLACKCAP 877 donor cow. For those breeders who truly value cow making sires, take time to look up his extended pedigree and see the powerful and highly proven cow making sires deep in his pedigree. He currently ranks in the top 1% of the breed for ADG, Marb, Shear, API, and TI. Top post-weaning gain, top marbling, top tenderness, and in an elite status for both profit driven economic index values.. is there any question as to why he has suddenly gotten very popular? We wanted to show you two photos of the great cow that produced MOUNTAINEER, one taken last fall right after she calved, in her working clothes, right in the pasture, showing her enormous milking ability. The other photo was taken this spring just before she weaned a huge heifer calf, showing her cleaned up look and also showing how her udder came right back into shape as she nears the end of gestation. We flushed 9024W last fall to MAKERS MARK, put the embryos in fresh, and have 6 of those babies on the ground this fall, then we held her open this year and have flushed her multiple times with good success, so be watching for a magnitude of her calves coming over the next couple years. As you watch for her future progeny, keep one more very important thing in mind about this great cow, she has a total outcross pedigree to all SHEAR FORCE and LEGACY, making her a very interesting piece of genetics.

All of the MOUNTAINEER sons scored a “1” on disposition as they exited the chute from collecting yearling data and ultrasound scan, a trait very valuable to the entire industry, but especially so for the smaller breeders. This bull is like Lot 9, simply a puppy dog disposition. He has an extremely deep rib structure with a little less muscle shape, and a great look.

This is the only MOUNTAINEER son in the sale that is not an embryo and his young CRIMSON TIDE dam did a great job on him as he racked up high individual ratios on all measured traits from birth through carcass ultrasound scan. After evaluating the data from the daughters and getting a report from the Fred Smith herd, our partner in MOUNTAINEER, we believe the performance of Lot 16 will be a norm for MOUNTAINEER. Lot 16 is a massive body, heavy muscle bull that also has a great disposition. He will prove to be very popular on sale day. 11th Annual Bull & Replacement Female Sale | 17

NIGHTRIDE is proving to be one of the elite calving ease sires of the industry, working perfectly safe for use on commercial heifers and producing smaller frame size progeny with added body capacity and muscle. He currently ranks in the top 1% of the breed for CE and Marb EPD’s along with a top 1% API and top 2% TI. He is definitely a sire that can be heavily used in commercial heifer breeding projects to add a little hybrid vigor and pay weight at weaning without sacrificing the safety of calving ease.

This leadoff NIGHTRIDE son is one of our favorite picks in the sale offering. In our opinion, he scores a “1” in everything . . . soundness, disposition, & hair coat. He has a stacked pedigree for calving ease with NIGHTRIDE on GRADUATE, but offers a huge birth to yearling spread for performance. He is definitely a bull that we would have some interest in partnering possession with someone if the opportunity were available.

Here is a big time calving ease, heifer bull prospect that ranks in the top 1% of the breed for both CE EPD and API. He is a double bred GW PREMIUM BEEF 021TS that does not have any SHEAR FORCE or LEGACY in his pedigree, making him very valuable as an outcross calving ease sire. He is smaller framed and packed full of muscle with a great disposition and ranking in the top 2% of the breed for Marb EPD. This bull is sound enough and good enough to enter a bull stud as a prospect for big time commercial heifer breeding projects.

Gibbs Farms Bull Development Gibbs Farms bulls are developed in large pastures consisting of primarily KY-31 Fescue to insure they acclimate to the Fescue endophyte as they develop. They are supplemented a low energy ration consisting of ground grass hay, soyhull pellets, peanut hull pellets, and enough extruded cottonseed meal to balance their protein needs. They are never feed a high starch cereal grain. We develop the bulls slowly on the low energy ration in an effort to produce a bull that is ready to breed at 14 months old and will stay sound long term.

GW PREMIER 734Y

PREMIER is probably our most underused herd sire. We purchased him in partnership with Red Hill Farms in Tennessee to be used primarily as a clean-up sire on our GRADUATE and ALUMNI yearling heifers. Due to generally good A.I. conception on our yearling heifers, we did not get many calves out of him, but each year seemed to have a couple really good ones. We now have some of his daughters in production and are liking him even better. He ranks in the top 10% of the breed for CE, BW, ADG, and TI, along with top 2% ranking for MCE, Doc, and API, plus top 4% for Marb EPD. No wonder we are finally starting to like him. Since he is a total outcross to SHEAR FORCE & LEGACY, he has wide spread use potential and is a sire that needs to be considered for heifer breeding if you desire a little more growth along with a super clean look.

Looking for an outcross bull with real cow making potential? Take a look at this PREMIER son! His granddam is the donor dam of Lots 1 – 4 and he does not have any of the very popular SHEAR FORCE and LEGACY in his pedigree. His individual ratios for performance and carcass ultrasound scan was great, giving him a very nice BW to YW spread on his EPD’s along with very good carcass EPD’s and economic value indexes. He is a very complete, sound structured, great disposition bull that just really does not have a hole in him. He easily made Gordon’s short list of top bulls in the sale.

Maternal Sires: RCR STETSON T17 x TNT DUAL FOCUS T249

Since all of the performance data is processed into the EPD’s, the individual performance data is not suppose to matter, right? Holy smoke, we still can’t ignore what this bull did on his individual ratios, WW ratio of 110, YW ratio of 117, IMF ratio of 155, and REA ratio of 117. He is out of a two year old first calf dam with no additional progeny record, but his DUAL FOCUS granddam has average progeny ratios of 114 for IMF and 107 for REA. This bull is definitely no fluke and he is for sure on the very, very short list of top prospects in this year’s sale. His sire sold in our 2013 sale to Baxley Farms in South Carolina and after Lloyd saw the first set of calves he told us that we needed to sample this herd sire. Our breeding seasons do not totally overlap, so at the last minute, just before ready to start breeding, we brought MR CLEAN back home and Bradley used him on his personal group of cows as a clean-up sire. This bull deserves special attention.

Sons of

S D S IN FORCE 112Y

IN FORCE has established himself as the Select Sires go to SimAngus heifer bull with exceptional maternal, marbling, and profit index value. He ranks in the top 1% of the breed for BW and Milk EPD’s, top 2% for CE and API, top 4% Docility, and top 5% Marb EPD. There is a huge economic value to a highly proven bull that can calves easily out of heifers, improve docility, and offer high marbling potential. On top of that, his daughters are moderately framed, big middle, and heavy milking. All of this results in some big weaning weight & quiet disposition calves out of those IN FORCE daughters. Natural possession of IN FORCE is shared each year by Cow Camp Ranch and Gibbs Farms, plus time for Select Sires to collect him and the bull literally stays fat all the time.

Here is a super sound, super good bull with much more growth and performance than normal for IN FORCE sons and due to his powerful ROOKIE dam. He is one of our heaviest weaning and yearling weight bulls, plus scanned really high on IMF carcass ultrasound scan. This high index value bull would be perfect for some high growth mature cows where you did not want to add birth weight, but wanted to maximize performance. There are 5 IN FORCE sons out of ROOKIE daughters, giving opportunity to a large producer wanting similar pedigree bulls to use all at one time.

This is another IN FORCE son that pushed the scales down and had a high ratio on his carcass ultrasound IMF scan. His dam has produced 6 natural calves with the following average progeny ratios, BW 104, WW 101, YW 102, IMF 112, and REA 99, and she is an embryo full sister to the dam of Lot 33, making these two bulls full brothers in blood. This bull would be great for a smaller producer wanting excellent disposition, safe calving ease and birth weight genetics, plus some added growth.

Out of a super good ROOKIE dam that has been one of our cover girl photo cows. She has had here photo used many times as a progeny of ROOKIE. This bull definitely inherited his sire & dam’s massive middle and combines good performance and carcass ultrasound scan data with low birth in a smaller frame size package. He is definitely the kind that will catch the attention of many good cattleman.

EPD Percentile Rank Estimating an animal’s genetic merit is much easier using percentile rank than using the actual EPD. For instance, if you are interested in purchasing a high growth bull, rather than attempting to remember what numerical number EPD is high for weaning and yearling EPD, simply rely on the percentile rank. By selecting a higher percentile rank, you will be selecting a bull with more growth genetics. A bull in the top 10% of the breed will have much more growth than a bull in the top 30% of the breed. Every animal in this year’s sale catalog has their percentile rank listed right under their EPD, making it easy to recognize where they rank within the breed.

He’s not just a heifer bull!!! Anyone that has retained daughters of GRADUATE and experienced them in production knows that statement is very true. He ranks among the best in the breed for maternal calving ease and top 10% for API, but most importantly, his daughters are simply superb. Our oldest are now four years old, we have been keeping a large group for replacements each year, and we are still retaining them. There’s just no way to have too many of them in your pasture. As one good Kansas cattleman stated, “GRADUATE daughters are the best thing since slice bread.” His sons offer very trustworthy calving ease with a little more growth than most bulls with his type CE & BW EPD’s.

Maternal Sires: ES BLACK ICE SK31 x V F VENTURE FORWARD

With this many good GRADUATE sons, it was hard to decide which one to lead off the sire group, but 5167C has sort of been that fault-free bull that keeps catching our eye, so he gets the lead-off spot. He is a very sound, big footed bull that has loads of rib depth and power, especially for a negative BW EPD bull. His BLACK ICE dam has weaned 3 calves with the following average progeny ratios, WW 103, YW 102, IMF 107, and REA 98.

This DAYLITE son is definitely on our very short list of special bulls and he deserves some attention. He started small at birth like most DAYLITE progeny, but performed extremely well and scanned a huge ribeye, proof of how much muscle this young bull possesses. On top of a great set of numbers, he is extremely sound, great disposition, and just simply looks good. He is out of a great looking COMFORT ZONE two year old heifer and his grand-dam is the dam of CRIMSON TIDE. This bull definitely has a royal set of numbers, a royal look, and a royal pedigree. There will be no problem finding him on sale day, he will be the bull with a lot of people around him.

His individual performance ratios deserve comment, WW ratio of 116, YW ratio of 108, IMF ratio of 113, and REA ratio of 114, and his EPD’s sure reflect how he has performed. This is definitely not a DAYLITE son that we recommend be used on heifers, but he offers plenty potential for use in other ways.

Here’s a DAYLITE son that is very typical of how a true calving ease young sire should look. He is very sound, refined in his bone, small jointed, smooth shoulder, and just not overly impressive, well guess what, that’s what a bull should look like if you want to use him strictly on heifers. Here’s a heifer bull backed by the best Purebred Simmental cow family at Gibbs Farms. His two year old dam is an embryo daughter out of GIBBS 9128W MABELLE N341 and where have you seen that name before? She is the dam of DEACON at Select Sires, ELEMENT at ABS, and was the cow chosen as the “Pick of the Herd” in our sale two years ago by Rust Mountain View Ranch in North Dakota and is now part of their elite group of donor cows. This DAYLITE son writes about as good of a pedigree and numbers as can be made for a true calving ease, heifer bull prospect. No, he will not be one of the really stout, powerful, standout bulls in the sale and how many times in history has great calving ease sires gone unnoticed as yearlings?

AAA# 17028963

Two years ago, we were looking for a new Angus sire to use and quizzed some of our good Angus informants with suggestions for a slick haired, sound footed, great disposition Angus sire that had great numbers and could possibly be a cow maker. The name BLACK GRANITE got tossed out several times, so we gave him a try. We liked them so well last fall at two months old, we quickly ordered more semen just before breeding season and used him again. We think our customers are going to like this group of BLACK GRANITE sons.

Leading off our BLACK GRANITE sons is in our opinion, one of the top bulls in the sale and one of Gordon’s “favorite picks”. One of the main criteria we were searching for two years ago was an Angus sire that would be a true “cow maker”, so one mission for BLACK GRANITE was to be mated to the best looking Purebred Simmental cow we own and that choice was easy. Our R525 Simmental cow is still as sound as can be at 11 years old and every visitor to the farm that goes to our mature Simmental cow pasture will immediately find her & say “what is that cow?” If we could make a mold of the perfect looking cow, we could use her to make it. Since calving as a two year old, she has been embryo flushed three times and has never missed breeding back immediately and never missed having a natural fall born calf within our regular calving season. She now has 9 natural calves and 23 embryo calves to her credit, we have retained numerous daughters and they work great just like her, but even after all this great production, she is one of the worst numbered cows in our herd. It’s almost like the EPD Demon cast a spell on her. Is it because she looks great but can’t perform? Well, let’s see . . . her 9 natural calves have average progeny ratios as follows, BW 100, WW 104, YW 98, IMF 109, and REA 101? O’well, we still can’t explain her number issue, but we can assure you of one thing, if you want a herd sire to produce great working daughters, then a son of R525 should be at the top of your list. She sure makes the big middle, moderate frame, sound, easy fleshing, and high producing kind that we like. Lots 70 – 74 are all embryo full brothers out of R525. Take a look at their quality and uniformity and see what you think, and by the way, don’t go to the sale heifer pens looking for the flush mate sisters to these bulls, we can save you the time, they are not there. 11th Annual Bull & Replacement Female Sale | 31

Maternal Sires: SSF BLK MIDLAND T525 x SSF BLACK ROUNDUP M340

When we purchased the large group of young cows from Sunshine Farms several years ago, we knew our good friend Tommy Brown had worked hard to build a herd of slick haired, sound structured, high carcass cows, but there was one additional interesting factor that appealed to us . . . many of those cows were outcross pedigrees to most of the heavy used sire in the breed. The dam of this BLACK GRANITE son is a prime example of just that, a slick haired, sound cow that does not have any SHEAR FORCE, LEGACY, or even any GW prefix sires in her pedigree. If you want true, total outcross genetics in a SimAngus bull, then here he is, a bull that you can pretty much breed any herd to, the whole herd, with no pedigree conflicts. This bull is perfectly sound structured, great disposition, a little refined in his bone, and very attractive. Everyone screams for outcross genetics, well here it is!

This BLACK GRANITE son offers very similar outcross genetics as Lot 78, but in a little different package. He is lower BW and higher CE genetics with great carcass genetics. He is more refined in his bone and muscle than Lot 78, but has the same structural soundness and great disposition. This could very well be the outcross, calving ease, heifer bull that many seedstock producers have been looking for. He sure has the potential.

Yep, he has little scurs and is heterozygous polled, but he is in the sale because he is really good and can add a lot of value to many herds of Angus cows without producing any horned calves. Use this bull in the right place and take the dividends all the way to the bank.

ASA# 2725682 We chose SPARTAN as an A.I. sire two years ago for numerous reasons and his phenomenal producing dam was sure at the top of the list. The CCR MS APPLE has produced numerous high profile stud bulls which includes our own herd sire, WIDE RANGE. MS APPLE was selected by Tom Brothers Ranch as the $30,000 pick of the herd when sold by Cow Camp Ranch at the National Western Stock Show in Denver a few years ago. Great programs are built from great cows and we wanted the influence of this great cow in our program.

This high performance SPARTAN son comes with a homework assignment. We challenge all you knowledgeable cattlemen to pull up his pedigree on the ASA website & research his pedigree. In the description of SPARTAN, we referred to great cow families & how great herds are built from them. Look deep into this bulls pedigree and you will find some of the Angus and Simmental breeds greatest cow producing sires and on top of all that, he is very much an outcross pedigree to today’s heavily used Simmental sires. This is our top pick of the SPARTAN sons and he sure deserved a photo, but we just missed getting one and it is sure not due to him acting unruly because he has a great disposition. Look him up in our video catalog and go find him sale day because he deserves attention from any breeder looking for a great one. He is massive middle, loaded with muscle, perfectly sound, and so good looking. Yes, he is on the very short list of good ones in the sale. 11th Annual Bull & Replacement Female Sale | 33

HOOKS ADMIRAL 33A

The first year of progeny data going into the ASA Multi-Breed Genetic Evaluation indicates ADMIRAL to be a heavy performance sire with high carcass value genetics and our yearling data this fall tells the same story. His 7 sons has average yearling ratios of 106 for YW, 109 for IMF, and 105 for REA. ADMIRAL currently ranks in the top 4% of the breed for WW, top 2% for YW, and top 1% for ADG EPD’s along with top 10% IMF, top 2% REA, top 10% API, and top 1% TI. Even with all the high ranking performance and carcass terminal excellence, he still ranks very high on maternal and API. His progeny are definitely a little bigger bone, loaded with muscle, and massive middle, but seem to be accomplishing the added performance without adding frame size.

Our lead-off ADMIRAL son offers great carcass EPD’s and profit index values along with a huge BW to YW EPD spread. His dam has been a no miss producer with a 351 day calving interval on 4 calves with average progeny ratios of BW 108, WW 107, YW 108, IMF 127, and REA 99. This bull has been a stand out favorite of ours all summer. He is big middle and loaded with muscle shape along with perfect soundness and a great disposition. All of this has proven to be fairly consistent traits with the ADMIRAL progeny. There is no question that this ADMIRAL son belongs on the very short list of sale favorites.

For the producer wanting huge performance with great carcass potential, look no further in the sale catalog. This ADMIRAL son had individual ratios of 120 for YW, 120 for IMF, and 112 for REA that helps him climb the percentile charts quite nicely, ranking in the top 3% of the breed for WW, top 1% for YW, top 1% for ADG, top 3% for Marb, top 10% for REA, top 2% for TI, and still ranks top 25% API even with all that growth power. No question that he should be used on mature cows, but his CE and BW is really not off the charts that bad for a bull with this extreme performance. Use him on mature cows for a huge calf crop pay check. 11th Annual Bull & Replacement Female Sale | 35

The dam’s side of the pedigree of this ADMIRAL son is loaded with some of the most respected cow making sires of the Angus breed. He has a big sound foot on him and a great disposition, simply a bull with virtually not a hole in him. He is largely an outcross pedigree to Simmental pedigrees and definitely has the potential to work as a herd sire in a SimAngus seedstock operation.

This bull rang the bell on all measured performance traits with the following individual ratios, BW 101, WW 103, YW 110, IMF 111, and REA 116. His dam has proven very consistent in the carcass department with 4 calves averaging ratios of 117 for IMF and 109 for REA. There is no wonder that he ranks in the top 5% of the breed for Marb and top 2% for REA along with top 10% API and top 3% TI. His CE and BW EPD’s are almost at the threshold of suggesting he is a heifer bull and his YW EPD is in the top 15% of the breed. He is definitely a great BW to YW spread bull and sure deserved a photo in the catalog because he is stout. Check out his video and come find him on sale day.

There’s not much about this great sire that most everyone does not know. He has established himself as one of the few high accuracy, high performance, carcass, and maternal combination bulls of the industry. He ranks in the top 2% of the breed for both API and TI, top 1% for Marb and Top 2% for REA EPD’s along with top ranking EPD’s for all performance and maternal EPD’s, plus maybe the most important EPD to our industry that no one seems to ever discuss, he ranks in the top 1% for tenderness. ALUMNI literally jumps through all the hoops and not just barely, he does it with great ease, the sire that can sire performance, high value carcass that produces great eating experiences, and super producing daughters with near perfect udder and teat structure. Commercial producers who use A.I. should be breeding their entire cow herd to this bull because few can equal his overall profit potential.

Our lead-off ALUMNI son is a stout made bull, lots of rib and muscle shape, and offers a huge birth to yearling spread. He actually has an acceptable CE EPD for use on heifers, but when you view the bull, he sure looks more powerful than a heifer bull. He was literally stellar on his individual performance with ratios of BW 116, WW 115, YW110, IMF 102, and REA 107, helping him earn high ranking EPD’s across the board and top 3% rank for both API and TI. It is not his dam’s first time to the rodeo either as she has 5 progeny with an average WW ratio of 113 and YW ratio of 109. This bull is an example of exactly what ALUMNI delivers.

It sounds as though we are making footnotes for various bulls using the same bull as an example, but that’s just how ALUMNI produce’s them, thick, stout, and with curve-bending birth to yearling spread, excellent maternal and carcass, and high profit potential. This bull qualifies for all of the above and is the kind that all good commercial producers can use.

There’s a little more power in this ALUMNI son, from birth right on through yearling, so definitely keep him on cows and use him where you want to produce some really heavy calves at weaning. He definitely has some extra gas in him, largely due to the growth power in his ROOKIE sired dam that has weaned 4 calves with an average ratio of 110.

Here’s another of the ALUMNI sons out of BROADBAND daughters, a cross that has worked really well for added performance and high maternal. This bull is really stout with plenty performance genetics in him, so use on cows where added power is needed.

There is actually no genetic relationship between XCHANGE and ALIMNI, but we end up putting these two sire groups together in a development pasture each year because they look so much alike. They will be together in a display pen on sale weekend and you will not be able to see a difference in them, both being big middle, heavy muscle, stout made bulls.

GW ROBUST 605Z

We purchased ROBUST in hopes he would give us a high performance herd sire with added carcass value to complement our GRADUATE, ALUMNI, IN FORCE, and STETSON daughters after they had calved once. So far he has proven to be a successful mission. With good accuracy, he now ranks in the top 2% of the breed for WW, top 3% for YW, top 25% for IMF, top 1% for REA, and top 3% for TI. He is accomplishing this performance power while remaining in the top 30% of the breed for CE and without adding frame size. We are just calving our oldest daughters out of him this fall, but we did get a look at some daughters in production at Cow Camp Ranch in June and we sure didn’t see any worries as to what kind of cows they were going to make. At his time, we are thinking ROBUST progeny will end up being similar to ALUMNI progeny except with a little more performance power. Our two lead-off ROBUST sons this year are out of ALUMNI three year old daughters and this cross sure seems to work well. All of the ROBUST sons selling will be out of three year old dams.

As probably one of the heaviest muscle bulls in the sale, this ROBUST son has a REA size to prove he is all muscle, not fat. Stacking the carcass genetics of ROBUST and ALUMNI is going to produce some off the charts REA EPD’s and bulls that look like Olympic weight-lifters. Both Lots 109 and 110 should be used on cows where maximum performance is desired. They will produce a lot of pounds of calf.

He is loaded with performance power in a really nice looking package and stacks two great cows in our program, the dam of CRIMSON TIDE on the top and the powerful Angus cow GINGER 0304 on the maternal side.

Here’s a slick haired, thick, stout, chunk that scanned out the roof for both IMF and REA. His Marb EPD, REA EPD, and TI all rank in the top 5% of the breed. If any producer plans to retain ownership in their calves, this is the kind of herd sire you want to be using if you want fast growing, early maturing steer calves that can grade into premium grids. Even if you do not retain ownership in your calves, herd sires with genetics like this will give you tremendous value if using the new IGS Feeder Calf Calculator. Finally, there will be a way to accurately measure added value genetics in feeder cattle by using this tool.

GIBBS 1100Y HY DEACON

When DEACON was a yearling, we stated that we expected him to be a great cow maker sire due to his pedigree literally being loaded with great cow makers. On the last genetic evaluation run his MM EPD dropped, but that is not what we are seeing in his first daughters. As expected, they are slick haired, growth, big volume females with very nice shaped udder and teats. DEACON currently ranks in the top 10% of the breed for CE, WW, and YW EPD’s along with a top 20% ranking for MCE, API, and TI. If his MM EPD end up following what we are seeing in his first daughters, then he is going to mature into a really balanced set of genetic numbers across the board.

With only one ULTRASOUND son in the sale this year, maybe it seems a waste to use all this space to describe him, but he is worth all of this space and some more. ULTRASOUND is still to this day one of the most unique performance and ultrasound scanning bulls ever raised at Gibbs Farms and has been producing some really fancy daughters, two out of the last four years they have been our high selling open fall yearling heifer. ULTRASOUND is still very sound and will continue breeding cows at Gibbs Farms, so be watching for more progeny in the future.

This black blaze face ULTRASOUND son is going to create quite a stir of interest, but he will need to be used on mature cows due to his growth power. He is actually a really smooth shouldered, clean made bull, but he is still a powerhouse for performance with WW, YW, and ADG EPD’s ranking in the top 1% of the breed. His dam has weaned 3 calves with an average WW ratio of 111, so this is not her first powerhouse. This bull almost mimics his sire’s individual performance by ranking #1 out of 38 at weaning, #1 out of 29 at yearling, and #1 out of 29 for ultrasound REA scan. ULTRASOUND accomplished that along with ranking #1 in his contemporary group for IMF. Now, to add more interest to this powerhouse performance and carcass herd sire prospect, he is a total outcross to all SHEAR FORCE and LEGACY pedigrees.

For an extremely high performance sire, RAISIN`CAIN stacks up rather well on his complete EPD and Index profile. He ranks in the top 3% of the breed for YW EPD, top 1% for YG and REA EPD’s while holding right at breed average for BW EPD and the top 1/3 of the breed for CE and MCE. His index values place him at 45% for API and 15% for TI. Currently, his weakest EPD is MM and our first daughters that just went into production are obviously proving that will change with daughter data. We have also had calls recently from customers wanting to know how many RAISIN`CAIN daughters would be in our sale this year, so that sure sounds like someone else has some daughters in production like ours.

This bull takes a super photo because that’s exactly what he looks like. Wide topped, square hipped, big middle, handsome as can be, and topped off with a striking perfect blaze face and no other chrome trim other than the tiny spot of white in front of his scrotal that can be seen in his photo. He has a big, sound foot and travels like a cat but has a disposition like a puppy. He is registered as a _ blood, but technically, he is _ Simmental because his dam is an Angus sired _ blood that was raised at Gibbs Farms prior to the rule change allowing animals to be registered by a bull of another breed. His dam does not have any pedigree in the database, so that’s the reason for his obviously low EPD and Index Values. His individual YW ratio of 105 and ultrasound scan REA ratio of 114 gives an indication of his performance potential and the amount of muscle he has. We definitely believe in using the EPD’s when you have all the data in the equation, but in this case, all the proper information is not in the equation to accurately predict his potential.

Read the footnote for Lot 125 because we have the same situation for this bull’s pedigree. He is out of an Angus sired commercial SimAngus cow, so the dam’s EPD’s do not reflect her true genetic prediction. His individual ratios of WW 103, YW 110, IMF 117, and REA 105 gives some indication that he has a lot more performance and carcass genetic potential than his numbers show. He is also a black blaze face bull with no additional undesired white.

FRAME SCORES In our opinion, there are only 3 frames scores . . . too small, just right, and too big!!! We try our best to yearling vaccinations. are standing square, bulls and decide for

take an accurate hip height while collecting yearling weights, carcass ultrasound scans, & giving Honestly, we really do try and Craig Hays assist in watching the feet, trying to make sure they but we always feel the margin of error on this measured trait is large. We urge you to look at the yourself, too small, just right, or too big and then select the ones you feel are just right for you. 11th Annual Bull & Replacement Female Sale | 43

SimAngus Bulls ASA# 2773822 Based on data generated from his first year of progeny records, OMAHA sits as our performance king of the herd sires. He ranks in the top 1% of the breed for WW, YW, ADG, MWW, and TI along with a top 25 ranking for disposition. Where he truly qualifies as a curve-bending outlier is his top 5% ranking for Marb EPD, something rarely seen in a sire with this much performance power. Our yearling data collected this fall definitely agrees with his performance EPD’s, but our ultrasound scan data shows him to possibly be much higher in REA and maybe lower in Marb EPD than his current numbers. By the next genetic evaluation run there will be enough data turned in to give a very accurate reading of where he will stand on carcass EPD’s, but there is no question about his powerful performance, his docility, and the super clean look to them. His progeny are already turning heads & creating a lot of buzz from the people who have seen them and we predict that by sale day the OMAHA progeny will be extremely popular, especially the yearling daughters. We have a within herd scoring system of 1 – 5 for soundness, disposition, hair, overall appearance, and then a cow score at calving time. When you scan down the worksheet for the OMAHA sire group and almost every score is a “1”, it’s almost overwhelming to us because we know that we did not give him one of our top groups of cows his first year. It will be a different story for next year’s sale because last winter he ran with one of our very top pasture groups of two year old cows.

Literally off the percentile chart in the elite 1% ranking for WW, YW, ADG, MWW, and TI makes this OMAHA son the overall top performance bull in the sale and his individual adjusted yearling weight of 1385 lbs. is also our #1 yearling performance bull. For a bull to achieve almost 1400 lbs. of yearling weight in our bull development management program, it is staggering. His dam and the dam of Lot 130 are embryo full sisters out of JAUER 301 who was known to transmit a lot of performance to her progeny. His dam has weaned 5 calves with the following average progeny ratios, WW 104, YW 106, IMF 102, and REA 104. In this case, these bulls got a dose of performance from the cow family and from their sire. There is no question that this bull should only be used on mature cows, but there are many herds out there that he will work in perfectly, so he will not have any trouble finding a home. In addition to all his performance, he is also really sound made and has a great disposition just like all the OMAHA progeny.

This was the highest IMF ultrasound scanning of the OMAHA sons with a 131 ratio which helped boost his Marb EPD into the top 10% of the breed along with top 2% WW, top 1% YW, top 1% ADG, and top 2% TI. It is impressive when a bull can accomplish this much performance in a mid-5 frame size developed in our management program, plus have the added perks of perfect structural soundness and disposition. The only other sire we have ever used that even came close to this kind of performance, soundness, and disposition was CCR DEISEL and his BW EPD was literally triple the BW EPD of OMAHA. When a herd sire can consistently produce sons that rank in the elite top 1% of the breed for performance without increasing frame size and not exceed more than 2 lbs. of BW EPD above breed average, then he has enormous industry value.

Sons of

W/C PALEFACE 756X

We only have two PALEFACE sons this year and even though they are both really good, this year’s highlight for PALEFACE will be his fancy set of daughters selling. He bred cows for us like a champ for 5 years and we even leased him out for spring breeding several times. His huge, sound made foot and structural soundness in general was always one of his strong points. Marty Ropp even commented several times that PALEFACE had as good a hoof as any Purebred Simmental bull he had ever seen and he has sure seen a lot of them. We don’t really have any clue what happened to him, but he just all at once acted like he had a severe acute case of arthritis and in no time seemed like he was in severe pain just to move. We are uncertain if it was related to injury or what it was, but in no time at all he went from a great looking mature bull to a bull in severe pain and we had no desire to see him suffer. The semen inventory on PALEFACE is sold out and we only have a tiny amount of personal semen left ourselves.

Maternal Sires: ANGUSALLIANCEWINCHESTER9 x O C C DOCTOR 940D

This PALEFACE son achieved 100+ individual ratios for all measured performance traits and has a super look to him, really stout and sound with a great disposition. His super looking dam is out of our former Angus embryo donor JAUER 7020 and sired by the well respected ZWT Ranch cow making sire, WINCHESTER. She has had a reputation of being a low BW genetics cow and has weaned 3 calves with BW ratio of 121 yet still recorded an average WW ratio of 99 on them. She is our featured anchor cow in the sale this year, selling as Lot 339.

Sons of

GIBBS 0689X CRIMSON TIDE

NLC Simmental in South Dakota owns the natural breeding possession of CRIMSON TIDE but we have continued to use the bull A.I., especially on some of our Angus cows. His sons and daughters have always been in strong demand and the two we have in the sale this year are typical of the quality he normally produces.

Simmental Bulls

Mature photo, Spring 2016

Pictured as a yearling

When BULLET PROOF sold through our sale as a yearling, the comments from many good cattlemen was that he looked like a SimAngus, not a Simmental. Those comments made us very proud, not simply because a bull we bred and raised was garnering compliments, but because our long term goal was to develop a herd of Simmental that looked just like our SimAngus, could work in our environment right beside the SimAngus and perform equally. Our goal was to offer 150 fall yearling bulls in our sale, 100 of them SimAngus, 50 of them Simmental, and all of them look alike, like cookie cutters. BULLET PROOF will not make that dream come true all by himself, but he is sure going to play a large role in it. Most people never saw BULLET PROOF as a yearling, probably don’t even remember seeing a yearling photo of him, so that’s why we are going back in history a little and have put his yearling sale catalog photo in this year’s sale catalog right beside his mature photo. In the Fall 2016 ASA Multi-Breed Genetic Evaluation, BULLET PROOF ranks in the top 25% of the breed or higher in 12 traits. He ranks in the top 15% or higher in 10 traits. He ranks in the top 10% for MWW, REA, and API and he ranks in the top 1% for Marb and TI. He truly is a breed changer for the Simmental industry and his strongest genetic asset may very well be his moderate frame, huge middle, easy fleshing daughters and they are just beginning to make their mark. We would like to thank the Baxley family from Georgetown, South Carolina for allowing us to use BULLET PROOF for natural service the past two years. They purchased the full possession and 2/3 semen interest in our sale and still own it all, but have graciously allowed us to use the bull and have refused to accept any compensation beyond a thank-you. They are great customers and even better friends.

This is a slick haired bull with just a little extra throat just like his photo shows, but he is perfectly sound, great disposition, and has a very stout look to him. His carcass genetic potential and growth would be a great fit for an operation that retains ownership in their steers or plans to use the new Feeder Calf Calculator Index that will be offered through the ASA.

Simmental Bulls

Sons of

GIBBS 0689X CRIMSON TIDE The three Purebred Simmental CRIMSON TIDE sons selling offer some very special genetics as they combine two great cows from our Simmental program. Their embryo donor dam is also the dam of BULLET PROOF. Last fall, at 11 years old, this cow was still sound as could be, and we found her dead under a tree that had been struck by lightning. It was a sickening day. She was very close to calving and we had so many more embryo flush plans for her, but thankfully she left us with some very good daughters and at least one breed changing son.

Due to being an embryo offspring, the growth EPD’s do not do justice to this powerhouse CRIMSON TIDE son. He has been developed right along side all the other bulls and is one of the overall top performance bulls in the sale. He ranks in the top 1% of the breed for Marb, top 2% for TI, and top 15% for both REA and API. His donor dam has 41 embryo calves recorded to her and 8 natural calves with average progeny ratios of 115 for WW, 106 for YW, 122 for IMF, and 109 for REA. This is not the first really good embryo calf she is responsible for, she is also the dam of BULLET PROOF and numerous good daughters in production. We feel that the individual excellence, striking profile, super numbers package, and elite cow family behind this bull makes him rather special. We look forward to promoting this great young herd sire prospect with our new partner.

O’what a difference a little white makes, but some customers will actually prefer the chrome on this powerhouse. Disregard the extra white and he would be considered one of the best bulls in the sale and guess what? Even with the white, he is still one of the genetically best bulls in the sale. We get numerous calls throughout the year from producers wanting a bull that can put white faces on calves out of Angus cows and they expect a blaze face bull with no additional white to get the job done. It just does not happen.If you want a bull to stamp white faces on Angus cows, here’s the kind of bull to get it done. There has never been a Simmental bull more popular and respected for siring blaze face calves than MEYER 734 and he had as much white as this bull and was horned to boot. Here’s a white face stamping machine that is homozygous for both black and polled, plus has a super maternal and carcass value dam.

CCR WIDE RANGE 9005A

Wide Range is the deepest rib, most massive middle high percentage Simmental bull we have ever seen and is out of a cow that has proven to be one of the great cows in the history of the breed. We knew that due to his enormous individual performance and his powerful look, he was not going to ever be the low birth weight, calving ease bull that his sire is, but we knew this bull had an enormous amount to offer the Purebred Simmental industry. We still comfortably stand by that statement today. The last genetic evaluation from the ASA gave this bull a huge tail spin down in CE and up in BW EPD’s. We anticipated some change, but nothing like what we saw. We did not see anything like that in our calving records, so we started contacting other breeders who had used the bull heavily, even checked on data from Select Sires progeny test herds, and no evidence of a change like this was found. We continued more in depth research and we feel very confident that after another genetic evaluation run later this fall, we will see a significant change in his EPD’s. We will just leave that subject for now and move on to discussing how good the WIDE RANGE progeny truly are. As we expected, he will change the rib shape and mass as much in one generation as any sire we have ever used. Knowing the cow making abilities of his sire, knowing the great producing ability of his dam, and knowing how massive his yearling daughters are, we can hardly wait to see them in production next year as young cows. When we found WIDE RANGE as a yearling we were confident that he would offer great things to the Purebred Simmental industry & we are still just as confident today. We are confident that time and more data will tell the real story.

We are leading off our WIDE RANGE sire group with a bull that maybe does not completely blow you away on paper, but we feel he just brings all the pieces of the genetic puzzle to the table in a very complete, sound package. His individual performance and carcass ultrasound scan ratios were at or above average in his contemporary group, he ranks in the top 3% of the breed for REA EPD and top 15% for Marb EPD. We feel that Purebred Simmental bulls this frame size, with this much capacity and muscle, and this kind of carcass value is what we need out in the industry breeding commercial Angus cows. With todays available research data available, literally half a century of solid factual data from many different universities as well as the US Meat Animal Research Center, if anyone ignores or tries to dispute the added value of hybrid vigor, then they simply have their head stuck in the sand. Our beef industry has hundreds of thousands of straight bred commercial Angus cows and they need to be bred to a Simmental bull in order to capture hybrid vigor and complementarity of these two breeds as proven by decades of research. Continue to talk tradition all you want, but if you are serious about making a profit, then listen to and implement the facts. 11th Annual Bull & Replacement Female Sale | 51

This is last year’s natural calf out of the donor dam of Lots 70 – 74, the really good BLACK GRANITE sons. We ask you to please flip over in your catalog and read the footnote about this cow, then flip back here and look at the individual performance and carcass ultrasound scan data on another of her great sons. Not only does this young stud ratio above 100 ratio on everything, he literally scorched the ultrasound scan with a 128 ratio on IMF and 110 ratio on REA, typical of what this great cow does year after year and the reason we have used her as an embryo donor dam. This WIDE RANGE son has enormous maternal and carcass value. Just think of the added value he could produce for a commercial operation through his steer calves in the feedlot and his daughters returned to the herd.

Lot 152 ranks in the top 2% of the breed for REA and top 3% for Marb EPD’s, making him a super choice for improving muscle and quality grades in a load of his calves. If you are retaining ownership in your calves or marketing to a feedlot that provides you with data or even with comments about your calves and they have told you that you need to add muscle, improve yield grade, or improve quality grade, then here’s a bull that can get the job done.

Maternal Sires: HART JACKPOT J310 x ER CAYENNE 554B

Performance power, carcass value, and maternal strength all come in one package with this WIDE RANGE son. He is one of our top individual performance Simmental bulls selling and comes from a high producing, super looking dam that has the following average progeny production ratios on 9 calves, WW 107, YW 107, IMF 111, and REA 97. At 11 years old, she still has perfectly sound feet and a beautifully shaped udder and teats, literally still a model cow at this age and she is a Purebred Simmental, not a crossbred. There is no question that the power in this bull limits him to use on mature cows, but used on average size, mature Angus cows, he will deliver highly profitable results. He ranks in the top 1% of the breed for WW, YW, and MWW EPD’s. If you have a group of really good mature Angus cows and feel you just need to be getting more return from them, here’s the bull that can add profit to your bank account.

Here’s a bigger frame size version of Lot 154, ranking in the top 1% of the breed for YW and REA EPD’s. He is a bull that can add lots of growth and muscle in one generation. No, he does not need to be bred to heifers or little narrow rear commercial cows weighing less than 1,000 lbs., but there are many herds of super good Angus or baldy cows out there weighing 1,200 lbs.+ that need a sire that can increase their owners profit. That’s where a bull like this needs to be working.

Just by coincidence, the two PATHWAY sons we are selling this year are out of high performance cows with a little added birth weight genetics, reason why he was a good choice of mating’s on them, but their BW EPD’s sort of give the wrong impression of his genetics, so let’s go to the front of the catalog, in the herd sire section, and review some interesting things about PATHWAY. First off, unable to be seen in our herd sire section, is his extended pedigree showing his very interesting outcross genetics that is loaded with great cow maker sires. With fairly good accuracy, PATHWAY ranks in the top 10% of the breed for CE, BW, and Docility EPD’s along with top 10% ranking for TI. He also ranks in the top 4% for MCE, top 2% for Marb, and top 1% of the breed for API. When you review this EPD and Profit Index profile, his outcross Simmental pedigree, and his ability to sire sound structured, very docile, heavy muscle, and attractive progeny, then why has this very interesting sire not been more heavily used in the breed? It’s not a trick question. We are actually beginning to wonder why we have not used him more.

Maternal Sires: LONG`S SHEAR PLEASURE x DIKEMANS SURE BET

Coming from a highly prolific and high performance cow family, this PATHWAY son did not disappoint as he earned 110 ratios for both WW and YW individual performance along with a 132 ratio for IMF on his carcass ultrasound scan. He ranks in the top 3% of Purebred Simmental animals for WW and YW EPD’s, top 10% API, and top 1% for both Marb and TI. That is some rather stout numbers. There is no question that he needs to be used on mature cows, but bulls with this type performance and carcass power with just slightly above breed average birth genetics is what needs to be used on mature cows. Using low birth, marginal performance sires on mature cows is the same as having a huge amount of money robbed from your bank account each year.

Yes, this bull probably has a little more birth weight genetics than desired by bull studs, especially when you consider that the vast majority of semen gets used on virgin heifers, but this bull is still one of our favorites in the sale and is definitely on Gordon’s short list of the good ones. This bull is rather special, super sound, great disposition, and if you trace his cow family back three generations, you find the dam of CRIMSON TIDE. Actually, for those who really know the Simmental breed, check out his extended pedigree and you will find as many well know, great producing cows in his pedigree as any bull in the sale. This bull will be a “cow maker”! 54 | Gibbs Farms 2016

Here’s another AFTER SHOCK out of a royally bred cow family. His Olie dam is about as picture perfect as you can make one and his granddam is the GEORGIA 30J cow, dam and granddam to multiple stud bulls like ROOKIE and LIBERTY. This bull is loaded with growth power, probably the biggest frame, highest growth potential bull in the sale. He ranks in the top 1% of the breed for YW and ADG EPD’s, top 3% for WW and TI, top 4% for REA, and top 20% for Marb and API. If you need a herd sire to add powerful growth in a hurry, this bull should be on your shopping list.

This is the cow family that produced DEACON and ELEMENT, plus the dam of those two stud bulls who was the “Pick of the Herd” choice in our sale two years ago by Rust Mountain View Ranch in North Dakota. G-FORCE was purchased as a yearling in our sale by Baxley Farms in South Carolina and they proved to be great friends again by allowing us to use G-FORCE naturally the past two years so that we could sample him.

SimAngus Open Fall Yearling Heifers

Replacement Females Heifer Development . . . after weaning our heifers go right back out into pastures that are a mixture of Fescue and common summer perennials like Bermuda and crabgrass, pretty typical of the same grasses used by our customers. The heifers have Gibbs Farms Summer Mineral R800 and BC Calving & Rebreeding MFP tubs made available free choice, both products made and distributed by Ridley Block and are available to anyone. Each of our 12 heifer development pastures has a fence line bunk and we try to deliver a heifer development ration to them 4-5 days a week that is primarily ground hay and soyhull pellets along with some peanut hull pellets and extruded cottonseed meal to balance the protein needs. Our heifers are supplemented enough for adequate growth and reproductive development, but not fed in a way to produce fat heifers, so don’t be expecting our heifers to be fat. We want them to develop properly, breed early, calve and rebreed as two year olds, and make highly productive cows that will last for many years. Reproductive Health . . . all sale heifers have been administered the same rigorous vaccination protocol as our Gibbs Farms replacement females, all our development heifers are treated the same. The protocol includes the best vaccinations on the market, to the best of our and our veterinarian’s knowledge and includes BVD-PI testing as well as calfhood vaccination for Brucellosis. Our sale heifers should meet entry requirements of any state and should be ready for your breeding program. Performance Data . . . complete birth to yearling data including carcass ultrasound scan is collected each year on all our heifers, exactly the same as with our bulls. Collection of complete data on all bulls and heifers annually, along with carcass data on our steers has been processed by the American Simmental Association for decades on all Gibbs Farms animals. The EPD’s, Profit Index Values, and Percentile Ranks in the sale catalog were downloaded directly from the American Simmental Association after all data had been processed. They include all individual animal data and were the most recent EPD’s as of the printing data of our sale catalog. Selection of Replacement Females . . . while we understand some customers may only be looking for a single heifer or maybe a couple, we are also accustomed to many of our customers preferring to purchase groups of heifers. It is always important to understand that when selecting replacement females (or any animals for that matter), you greatly increase the accuracy of your selection process when you look at the average data of a group versus individual animal data. When looking at the EPD’s and Index Values of one animal at yearling age, the accuracy of genetic prediction is very low, however if you look at the average EPD and Index Values of 10 heifers or more, the accuracy of their genetic prediction is extremely good. There is multiple DNA test available on the market today with claims of predicting which heifers will make the best cows. The accuracy of these test may be better than nothing, but they are not even close to as accurate as EPD’s and Index Values derived through the American Simmental Association Multi-Breed Genetic Evaluation when all phenotype data has been supplied for many generations. No DNA prediction test on the market today comes even close to being as good of a genetic prediction as the EPD’s and Index Values in this sale catalog. BREEDER QUALITY HEIFERS . . . this is a new feature we added to the sale catalog this year. We always are ask numerous times which heifers are our favorite picks, the ones we feel sort of ties it all together the best, cow family, data, look . . . basically the whole package. We know this is just our opinion, but this year it will be clearly noted which of the heifers we feel is the most special from a total genetic breeder package viewpoint. We are not in any way saying there are not other super good heifers, we are simply stating these are our favorite picks. This is exactly what we have been doing verbally when asked in the past, so this year we are putting it in print for everyone to view.

SimAngus Open Fall Yearling Heifers

Daughters of

TJ OMAHA 378A

We had no problem at all selecting our lead off sire group of heifers this year. The OMAHA daughters are the stoutest, most attractive set of heifers we have ever offered for sale. That’s a rather bold statement but wait until you go through them, they will impress. The average EPD’s of the sire group ranks in the top 2% of the breed for WW, top 3% for YW, and even with those kind of performance numbers, still ranks breed average for MM EPD. All of the genetic power in this sire group is not OMAHA. You will see very noteworthy cow family names like JOANIE, BLACKCAP 877, JAUER 301, and MABELLE N341. That list of cows reads like a “Who’s Who” of our embryo donor cows. There is absolutely no need for individual footnotes on this group of fall yearling heifers, their data, cow family names, and photos tell the story. All you need to do is decide which bull to breed them to.

CCR SPARTAN 9124A

We chose SPARTAN to use A.I. because of his tremendous dam and she is also the dam of WIDE RANGE. We have been very impressed with the production of the cow our friends at Cow Camp Ranch refer to as the “APPLE COW” and he also brings some really good Angus genetics into the equation on the sire side of his pedigree. Be sure to take a serious look at the EPD and Index profile of Lot 211, then go find her on sale day, you will be impressed. She ranks in the top 1% of the breed for both API and TI plus top 1% for Marb EPD. You will drive the wheels off a vehicle trying to find a sale heifer with those numbers and her look.

The MAJOR BEEF daughters are stout, big middle females that already look like cows. Genetically they are high carcass value, especially REA and YG EPD’s, and it shows in their muscle mass. All of the MAJOR BEEF daughters have that massive, easy fleshing look, but we want to call special attention to the first two heifers of this sire group. These two heifers, both out of EMBLAZON sired dams need special attention. They are breeder quality replacement females.

GW PREMIER 734Y

We purchased PREMIER for the purpose of using him as a clean-up sire on our GRADUATE and ALUMNI virgin heifers and didn’t really give him a good sampling his first couple years at Gibbs Farms. After the second year of having a very limited number of his progeny and noticing that most of them made it into our bull sale even though they were younger clean-up calves, we started giving him a more serious look. His EPD/Index profile continued to get better as he had more progeny data turned in and we finally realized that he was far more than just a clean-up sire for heifers. Of our proven heifer bulls, he has the largest birth to yearling spread and his daughters are proving to be really special. He is definitely one of those bulls that had to earn all his respect from progeny data, but he has now finally gotten our attention. He will see a more primary herd sire role in the future at Gibbs Farms. We picked out 4 very nice daughters for this year’s sale and they average in the top 10% of the breed for both API and TI. We want to call special attention to Lot 225, a heifer that is smaller frame size, big middle, and has a super look. She was selected for a sale catalog photo, but we missed getting it, so be sure to look her up in the video catalog. Her granddam is the donor dam of the lead off bulls in the sale catalog, Lots 1 – 4. This is a super producing cow family and this heifer has the super look to go with it.

J BAR J NIGHTRIDE 225Z

NIGHTRIDE is fast becoming known as one of the elite calving ease heifer bulls of the industry, now ranking in the top 1% of the breed for CE, Marb, and API along with top 2% ranking for BW and TI. He is the highest API herd sire at Gibbs Farms at 199.1 and with the rare and unique status of top 1% and 2% for both profit index values, he has earned his spot as a heavy use sire in the industry. The 4 daughters we selected for the sale have an average API rank in the top 2% of the breed along with an average top 2% ranking for Marb EPD and top 10% for TI. One of these heifers ranks in the top 1% of the breed for both API and TI with another ranking in the top 1% for API. These heifers will definitely not be as impressive at yearling age as some of the higher performance sired heifers, but if you believe in the profit index values, then these heifers will be on your purchase list. Our oldest NIGHTRIDE daughters calved this fall and are in a pasture near our sale facility. If you would like to see them in production, join us on Fri, the day before the sale, and we will give you a tour through them. We have a whole pasture group of two year old NIGHTRIDE, PREMIER, and ROBUST daughters, most with PROPHET MARGIN and STATEMENT calves at side.

GW ROBUST 605Z

ROBUST now has a significant amount of progeny data reported and accuracy at .85 for YW EPD. His CE EPD still ranks in the top 30% of the breed and he has proven to be a heavy muscle, high performance sire, ranking in the top 2% and 3% of the breed for WW and YW EPD’s, top 1% for REA and Docility, and top 3% for TI. We are currently calving our first daughters, so stop by the farm and take a look at them or come to our sale weekend for our pasture tours on Fri and we will give you a look around. We would like to make special mention of 3 ROBUST daughters in the sale. Lot 233 is a double bred PREMIUM BEEF 021TS that is loaded with muscle and has a great look along with an excellent EPD and profit index profile. Lot 235 is an absolute massive, high performance heifer that would make an interesting genetic addition to a breeding program and Lot 236 is a smaller frame size heifer with a tiny white spot in her face that traces back to one of our former Angus donor cows, GINGER N0304. All three of these heifers should make the breeder short list of top replacement heifers.

We have been keeping almost all of our ALUMNI daughters and love them as cows. They will not make very large cows, but they are massive middle with super good udder and teat structure. ALUMNI ranks in the top 2% of the breed for API and TI, top 4% for MCE, and top 15% for MM EPD’s. His EPD and profit index profile show him to be great for making cows and we definitely agree. We selected two really special ALUMNI daughters to lead off the sire group for the sale. Lot 239 is a smaller frame size heifer that has a super look and goes back to the JAUER 7020 cow family and Lot 240 that is also a smaller frame size heifer that is stout and good.

IN FORCE has earned the spot of being the heaviest MM EPD of our proven sires, is a true “slam dunk” heifer bull, but is well below breed average in growth numbers. We have primarily used him on heifers, but two years ago we decided to breed him to the highest growth pasture group of cows we own, the daughters of ROOKIE and RIGHT TIME 338. This mating worked perfectly to add performance power to progeny as evidenced by the sons and daughters alike. This group of heifers has strong quality all through it, so we recommend you spend some time viewing this sire group and if there is a producer looking for a large group of heifers, this would be a good sire group to take home and make cows. They are very moderate in frame size, huge volume, and should be loaded with milk.

Probably the smart thing would be to purchase the whole group of GRADUATE daughters, take them home, and make cows out of them. Most likely anyone that did just that would be happy with that decision in a couple years. For true breeder quality heifers, we suggest the first for heifers. Lot 254 is very unique with such high growth for a GRADUATE, but the JAUER 301 cow family has a history of performance power. This is another sire group that you need to read the cow family names for the whole group. Most of our best cow families are represented.

Daughter of

GIBBS 2905Z MR CLEAN

We only had two MR CLEAN daughters and after seeing what he did for us there is no way we would have sold this heifer if she had been old enough to make a replacement for us. Generally, a heifer this age will get held and bred for the sale the following year, but this heifer is so good and so stout we thought she would work well in the sale this year as a yearling. She is younger, so she probably should not be bred until at least January.

Simmental Open Fall Yearling Heifers

Daughters of

GIBBS 2654Z BULLET PROOF

If you are interested in Purebred Simmental, we suggest you take the time to come the day before the sale and join in on our pasture tours just so you can go see the two year old BULLET PROOF daughters in production. They will have either BLACK GRANITE or BLUEPRINT calves at side and after seeing the way they look and the job they are doing, you will understand why we didn’t want to sell any BULLET PROOF daughters. We knew it would be in the best interest of promoting the bull if we picked out a couple good daughters for the sale, ones that would represent the bull well. Both of these heifers are out of outcross pedigree cows that were in our large purchase of Sunshine Farms young cows. The EPD and Index Value profile of Lot 275 is really special, over 100 YW EPD, top 1% Marb EPD, top 2% TI, and top 10% API. Lot 276 is a low birth weight pedigree coming from a dam that has consistently produced very low birth genetics and this heifer has a super look. She is definitely a Purebred Simmental that looks more like a SimAngus hybrid, just like her sire. We are comfortable both of these heifers deserve continuing their productive career in a Simmental breeder operation.

As stated in the footnotes of the RAISIN`CAIN SimAngus daughters, they are making really nice, big body, very broody young cows, they kind everyone likes to have in the pasture. We have had customer request for Purebred Simmental RAISIN`CAIN daughters in this year’s sale and we simply did not have any due to the way we used the bull two years ago. These three 3/4 Blood Simmental daughters are the best we can do this year, but we are seeing the same quality in his daughters that our customers are seeing, so we know that we need to be making some more of them. The lead-off Lot 277 heifer is especially special and absolutely needs to go into a Simmental breeder program. Bred to Purebred Simmental bulls she will produce Purebred Simmental progeny, so she will work exactly the same as a purebred. The outcross pedigree of her dam also adds to her genetic appeal. On Lot 279, be sure that you don’t miss the info in her lot box, she is a blaze face with a very fancy look.

CCR WIDE RANGE 9005A

Sired by GRADUATE and out of CCR MS APPLE 9332W, if WIDE RANGE produces daughters even close to what that pedigree combination predicts, then he will be one of the great cow making bulls of the breed. He is definitely passing his massive rib capacity and stout look on to his progeny and our confidence level is very high on how these daughters will make cows. The 3 Purebred Simmental daughters of WIDE RANGE that we selected for the sale was done to show off his ability to make massive, cow looking females. All three of these females should be standing in our personal replacement heifer pasture, but we felt it was very important that we display some of his best. Lot 280 is out of our CANDY cow family which was anchored by a tremendous donor cow that came from the Allen family at Wayward Hill Farm in Kentucky. Lot 281 is out of a dam sired by the high carcass value BLACKOUT and goes back to the dam of BULLET PROOF. Lot 282 is out of a heavy milking, huge middle BLACK ICE sired dam. All three of these heifers are loaded with genetic potential and should be headed to serious Simmental breeders. They are definitely breeder quality heifers!

Born in early November, she needs to go to a herd that breeds for either November or January calving. She is a deep, big body, stout female with a great EPD and Index Value profile.

SimAngus Bred Heifers

Bred Replacement Females The selection for the bred females in our sale has changed immensely over the past 5 years. Just a few years ago, all of the bred heifers in our sale were the youngest or sort of the left-over heifers from the previous year that we held a couple months to breed for the sale. Not the case anymore. Due to our cow herd numbers growing from about 500 cows to 800 cows over the past 5 years, we now have enough numbers of heifer calves each year to supply our needed replacements, put around 100 in our sale as fall yearlings, and still reserve some very special heifers to breed a little later so they will be due shortly after sale time. Many of the bred females selling this year will fit comfortably in the very top end of any breeder’s herd, some are true embryo donor potential, ranking in the top 1% of the breed in numerous traits. To add to the genetic excellence of this offering, we have bred them to some of the breed’s most elite sires. In an effort to assure calving ease on the bred heifers, the five service sires, NIGHTRIDE, GRADUATE, AUGUSTUS, SLUGGER, and OFF BEAT, as a group average in the top 1% of the breed for CE EPD. In an effort to assure top performance from our bred young cows, the three service sires, ROBUST, OMAHA, and ULTRASOUND, as a group average in the top 1% of the breed for WW and YW EPD’s. Those mating’s are pushing the genetic bar about as far as it can be pushed, offering our customers some of the most elite genetics available in the industry today.

It does not matter if you evaluate her with or without paperwork, she will work at the top of anyone’s replacement females.

This NIGHTRIDE daughter also ranks in the top 1% of the breed for API, CE, and Marb. She and Lot 293 would make a tremendous pair of females for someone to add to their replacement heifer pasture, but there is an interesting added bonus that comes with this heifer, she is a total outcross to all SHEAR FORCE and LEGACY bloodlines. How many miles would you have to travel to find another bred heifer for sale sired by an industry leading A.I. sire that ranks in the top 1% of the breed for API and is a true outcross pedigree.

Sired by the really high EPD SimAngus XAVIER, but this heifer and Lot 298 are actually 3/4 Blood Simmental. This heifer offers some very special genetics on the dam side of her pedigree as her great-granddam is NLC MESMA LG140, considered by many good cattlemen to be the best cow ever produced in the Nelson herd in Montana. She has produced 45 embryo progeny and 10 natural with an average progeny weaning ratio of 115 and yearling ratio of 118. There are some other really good young cows in between, but we think having this great cow sitting back there in her pedigree is very special.

Her young ALUMNI sired dam is loaded with carcass genetics and has produced two calves with average progeny ratios of 101 for WW and YW, 131 for IMF, and 106 for REA. With index values like this, high carcass EPD’s, along with CE and YW EPD’s with this kind of spread, this heifer makes for a rather unique breeding piece.

POTENTIAL DONOR QUALITY FEMALE This bred heifer has all the pieces of the puzzle to make her a candidate as an embryo donor in the future. Her tremendous EPD and Index Value profile was rightfully earned by a high producing cow family. Her dam has produced 3 calves with the following average progeny ratios, BW 101, WW 108, YW 106, IMF 113, and REA 103. This is the kind of Purebred Simmental heifer we prefer to keep, but due to many customer request for heifers of this quality, we wanted to offer a couple really special ones.

Thank you!

We were very humbled that Select Sires included Gibbs Farms as one of their stops on their recent National Rep Tour. Close to 100 Select Sires Beef Team Reps and customers arrived around 3:30 in the afternoon & we looked at cattle until after dark with headlights, then enjoyed a great beef bar-b-q meal.
