11:00 a.m. – Lunch served by Beutler Meats & Catering 12:30 SHARP – FACTORY DIRECT FEMALE SALE Welcome to the 5th edition of the Factory Direct Elite Female Sale. One of the statements in this business that is so over used is that “this is our best set yet…” No kidding? Isn’t that why we try to improve our genetics and improve our management practices? Isn’t our goal to improve each and every calf crop? I can assure you that all the marketing partners in this year’s sale have really outdone themselves. THIS SALE IS LOADED! 40 Elite open show heifers. 30 Great young bred cows and amazing bred heifers. All backed by producers with integrity that are in this business for years to come. This year’s letter will be brief because these cattle will speak for themselves. It is truly an elite offering and we will make sure our hospitality is second to none. We want to EARN the right to be a highlight of the fall sale season first through GREAT cattle, second through standing behind our product after the sale, and third by rolling out the hospitality when you arrive Doc Horstman’s induction into the Indiana Livestock Breeders Hall of Fame – 2015 Indiana State Fair.

• Owned by Horstman Cattle Co., LLC. • Here they are! Lots 2 and 2A are purebred females and maternal sisters to the 2014 NAILE Grand Champion Percentage Female for Alexis Ostrom by WLE Missy U409. That great halfblood U409 daughter was crowned Grand Female and her mother sold later at the North American Select Simmental sale for $42,000 to Brandon Bird in a shootout. • Their great dam, U409, has been a feature donor and we can now offer BOTH of the donor and show prospects to you. Their dam is backed by the breed matriarch, Shawnee Miss 770P, who made her immoral name in the breed for the Wesner program by raising such bulls as: WLE Uno Mas, WLE Swagger, WLE Big Deal and the list goes on. 770P is now owned with Circle M and WLE and continues to have an enormous impact on the breed. THEIR HYPE IS DONE. These are no brainer money-making females backed by generations of cow power and pages upon pages of footnotes. Show them both at any show in the country and be in contention then take them home and watch them do for you what their mother and grandmother have done for their owners. Just add feed and water and watch it roll in. • Both are sound, both are elegant with sweeping rib and both have the smooth joints and impeccable feet that come in the great cow families. • These females have both been entered in the North American International Livestock Exposition in Louisville, KY.

SENNETT MONIQUE 26A This outstanding female, and maternal sister to Lots 2 and 2A, sold through the 2013 Factory Direct Sale as a featured heifer calf and went on to be named Grand Champion Sim-Angus Female at the 2014 North American International Livestock Exposition.

• Owned by Horstman Cattle Co., LLC. • 75% Simmental. • T94 has done it again! This driver female has blended everything she needed to from T94. The Driver females are known for their long tops, good necks and sound structure and then 524C encapsulates her mother’s rib shape and depth. Don’t let this one fool you, she will be sleek enough to show and will be a mainstay in the pasture or donor pen for years to come! • The grandam of this female, BC Mignonne’s Libby 385, went on to produce the featured Select Sires AI sire, BC Classic 385-7, and is also a full sister to the Genex/CRI AI sire and the 2012 ROV Sire of the Year, BC Lookout 7024. She was selected as the 2011 Grand Champion Cow of the Breeders Sweepstakes and went on to produce the Reserve Grand Champion Percentage Female at the 2011 Indiana State Fair Open Show.

• Owned by Horstman Cattle Co., LLC. • 541C has baffled people all spring. I take them out on a tour and let them find her and ask “what breed do you think that one would be?” Purebred Simmental is far down the list. Don’t let this one in the house during Christmas, she could get her head caught in a wrapping paper tube, but she still has shape of rib and is backed by a proven cow family. • Her young mother is an Optimus Prime out of Shawnee Miss 145P, who you might recall to be the mother of LAH Sue 604S. 145P is a popular past donor for HCC and now 224Z was quickly flushed for full sibs and we even bred her back to Hammer to cover all bases. • 541C is a bit younger but should not be overlooked in a deep group of purebred females

She has seen her first natural calf attain the honor of being named Champion Chi Female on numerous occasions and the excitement created by her first sets of ET calves is sure to anchor her firmly in the show cattle world for years to come. • SC Candice 12C has already made her backdrop debut as the Division 1 Champion Female at this year’s National Junior Chianina Show and is sure to see many more titles throughout her show career.

Our Simmental program is still young and evolving, but we are fortunate to have endured great success having produced the National Champion Percentage Female at the NAILE in 2014 and both Fifth and Eighth Overall Percentage Females at the AJSA Classic this year in College Station, TX. • We have prided ourselves with bringing cattle that we think are superior phenotypically and they have proven to be successful later as show heifers and donors, these are no exceptions. They are hard to let go of and impossible to replace, but fun to watch the next year with a junior on the halter.

Take a look here at a beautiful, red baldy that didn’t forget where she came from. This heifer illustrates perfectly the old book on Simmental cattle with her added growth, muscle and substance and blends it with contemporary standards in her balance and profile. • Her ’03 model dam, Glory N49, put together quiet a production record in her time here. Producing the $14,000 Lazy H Dispersal donor that was named the 2008 Reserve Champion Female at the American Royal and Champion Female at the NAILE.

This one is packed full of muscle and is as smooth as silk. We are confident this one is stylish enough to run with the commercials in the show ring and can still be used in the continuation of high percent SimGenetics once her show carrier comes to an end. • If her phenotypic attributes aren’t enough to grab your attention, maybe the royalty on both sides of her pedigree is; her dam was crowned Reserve Champion Percentage female at the 2010 National Western and Uno Mas brought home his NAILE banner in 2013. • I strongly urge young showmen and serious breeders to have this girl in your sights on sale day.

• Owned by Wesner Livestock Enterprises. • This mating is right up there with the best matings I have ever had, in terms of both quality and consistency, during my time in the cow business. Gracie X Built Right has just flat worked for us and others. We have sold numerous $10,000 to $20,000 full-sibs, both males and females, including one notable female to Circle M Farms that hung her purple in Fort Worth a couple of years ago. Nick Sloup recently purchased her dam “Gracie” from us at 10 years of age and I think he would agree with the strength of this mating because he is still using Built Right on her. What probably excites us the most about this female is that she not only matches but she exceeds all of the pedigree hype with her phenotype. • This is a massive rip, that’s monster ribbed and huge hipped and backed. It’s not always that one is this massive and still brings the feminity, smoothness and skeleton that this one has in her. We turned down offers to buy this female all last fall and winter with intentions of keeping her as a future donor. The designed mating here was as an exciting of a mating as we would have had coming next year. Enjoy. • Bred to calve March 6, 2016 to WLE ARRIVAL B57 (Angus). Examined Safe.

• Owned by Wesner Livestock Enterprises. • When we walked into the sale pen with this one for the first time we knew we had to have her. This is one massive beast of an Angus cow…the only place she is a little short is at the tips of her ears and her tail. • This cow is donor hipped, big backed, huge barreled, and as sure and true at the ground as they come. In the short two years that we have owned her she has kicked out two awesome heifer calves. One of those tickets you get a chance to preview in this sale and if she doesn’t speak volumes to you about the production potential for her momma then nothing will. This cow came to us highly recommended from Dale Grubbs and we can only add to that recommendation. Donor potential in this proven model. • Bred to calve April 8, 2016 to CIRCLE M TEJAS (Angus). Examined Safe.

• Owned by Wesner Livestock Enterprises. • We will admit the Angus deal is not really our scene at WLE. However, in the last several years we have started raising a few purebreds to use in our Simmental program. This heifer right here epitomizes what we are after when breeding Angus cattle; all cattle for that matter. Predictable, proven genetics, a beautiful mother and she can stand in a pen of high and low-percent Simmys and not give up an ounce of performance, muscle, bone or mass. • This one is silky smooth and every foot points the direction it should. Whether you decide to use this one how we would have in a Simmental upbreeding scheme, keep her Angus, or use a club calf sire at breeding, my bet is it’s gonna flat work. This heifer comes right out of the top of the keeper pen and has all of the makings of an ultra-competitive show heifer and an elite cow when the dust settles. Buy with confidence.

• Owned by Wesner Livestock Enterprises & Cates Farms of Modoc, IN. • SELLING A FLUSH TO THE BULL OF THE BUYERS CHOICE. Seller guarantees a minimum of six transferable embryos/no cap/buyer to stand all flush costs. • Every year we sit down and take a hard look at the production and profit records of our cow herd, and boy has 30U been an under-utilized star in our program. So…we started to get a little smarter and left her open to flush on and would like to share the goods with you. Study this cow hard and it will come as no surprise that she flat out stamps her progeny with uber-quality. On paper she reads that she should throw some look, and let me tell you this girl pitches! Super soft hided and haired, ultra-feminine and rocket fronted; this one is chiseled out of a rock. We have used her both Angus and SimAngus and either way she seems to rise to the occasion. • Last year we sold a standout, BC Lookout son to Cates Farms for them to use in their ShorthornPlus program. The versatility that this female has in production is something that is so hard to find; we found the needle in the haystack for you here. This is one of those cows that no matter what bull choice you make she has proven to us that she can carry it. Take advantage of a proven production record to add some value to any herd or production scheme here in the 30U flush opportunity.

WLE LEGIT B30 WLE Legit B30, a direct son of Lot 54, is a featured herd sire with Cates Farms in Modoc, Indiana, is an outstanding bull with tremendous depth, sound structured, huge hipped and will be used heavily in the Cates and WLE programs.

WESNER LIVESTOCK ENTERPRISES ANGUS FEMALES • Owned by Wesner Livestock Enterprises. • The hard part is done here. This gal more than just made it through the “terrible twos” and now has her whole production life ahead of her for the new owner. We sell enough youth project heifers that last year we decided to add to our May/June calving group and this pair rose its way to the top of that list. • Here’s a good, young, productive cow with a neat heifer baby at side to give you an exciting glimpse at what she can do. Bred for looks, there is extra quality in this unit of cattle. Whatever you choose to do with this pair the earning potential here is high. All of the Angus cattle that we have purchased from Les Craft over the years have been calf raising, money makers in our Simmental scheme and this one has proved the first time around that she can go Angus too; take advantage.

• Sells with a heifer calf at side (Lot 55A) born June 2, 2015 by JSAR TITAN. Tattoo C364. • Bred to calve August 1, 2015 to WLE ARRIVAL B57 (Angus). Examined Safe.

• Owned by Wesner Livestock Enterprises. • Prototypical Angus female here. If we could have and hold onto 50 just like her we sure would and truth be told we shouldn’t be letting this Retail Product daughter go. Best descriptor here is efficiency. This cow is moderate in her build, super easy fleshing, she milks like a Holstein (picture taken right after weaning) and breeds right back. Her phenotypic superiority is only matched when you get to paper and it is this wicked combination that make the mating possibilities and the production potential with this cow plentiful. • We sold a $7,000 daughter last year through this very ring and the mating here to Consensus 7229 was one that we were super excited to have coming next year. Longevity bred into this model; take the advantage of the best years of ownership here. She still looks to have plenty of gas left in the tank; donor potential as well if you so choose. • Bred to calve March 9, 2016 to CONNEALY CONSENSUS 7229 (Angus). Examined Safe.
