Dear Cattlemen and Friends,
We are pleased to welcome you to our 11th annual bull sale. We are proud to offer another set of great bulls this year. We only select our top bulls. They have great dispositions, which is a must in our program. We like to be able to walk into the pasture amongst them. We even like to take our grandchildren/nieces/son/daughter into the pasture with us.
The shots we use in our program are Vision Somnus and Type A at birth and 4 weeks old,and a booster at weaning, Vista Once SQ at 4 weeks old and a booster at weaning. This year we also gave them a foot rot and pink eye at 4 weeks old. We pour with cydectin at weaning and again in January with Agrimectin. The bulls are semen tested before the sale and when they pass they get poured, foot rot shot, breeding shot, and get their big tag.
We love to hear from our customers about our bulls and heifers. We like your feedback so we know how our bulls perform for you. We try our hardest to have bulls that will help you in your programs. We are very happy with this set of bulls and how they weaned off mama’s. These cattle are all free of genetic defects by pedigree or by testing that we know of. We try our best to keep up to date on all the defects and to keep our herd clean.
The calves were weaned September 12, 2024. They had no creep feed. Bulls are available to be seen before the sale by calling us.
If you have any questions or concerns give us a call. We would like to extend a sincere Thank You to all of our customers.
Sincerely,
Gimbel Family Cattle

WE DID THE IGENITY TEST AGAIN THIS YEAR THAT POINDEXTER’S USE. THE TEST RESULTS WILL BE ON A SUPPLEMENT SHEET.
Igenity Maternal Index (IMI)
This index is highly maternal and designed to select replacement heifers for fertility, longevity and higher weaned calf weight. It is a tool developed for producers who sell calves at weaning or after a short backgrounding period.
Igenity Production Index (IPI)
The Igenity Production Index is well balanced for maternal, production and carcass progeny traits. It is designed for producers who raise their own heifers and want broad improvement across multiple traits.
Igenity Total Cow Index
As a combination of the IMI and Envigor scores, the ITCI is designed to select females that will not only excel because of increased heterosis and genetic potential, but also pass that same genetic potential on to their progeny.
Birth Weight (BW)
Weaning Weight (WW)
Difference in average 205-day weight. The higher the number, the greater the weaning weight of calves.
Average Daily Gain (ADG)
Based on pounds of gain per day. The Igenity score for Average Daily Gain (ADG) identifies genetic potential for post-weaning growth.
Yearling Weight (YW)
Difference in average 365-day weight. The higher the number, the greater the yearling weight.
Residual Feed Intake (RFI) Sunday April 13, 2025
Higher scores equate to higher birthweight potential. Heavy calves can cause calving difficulty but also have more growth potential. (CED or CEM in selection indexes are preferred over BW alone.)
Calving Ease Direct (CED)
Greater probability a calf will be born unassisted out of a first-calf heifer, including birth weight and shape of the calf. A higher value is greater calving ease.
Calving Ease Maternal (CEM)
Includes all genetic factors that impact a first-calf heifer ’s ability to calve unassisted, such as pelvic area and her genetics for birth weight. Higher value is more calving ease.
Heifer Pregnancy Rate (HPR)
A heifer ’s potential to conceive during breeding season, relative to other heifers. A higher value is desired.
MILK
Pounds of calf weaning weight due to dam’s milk production. Optimize “milk” to the forage environment. FAT Backfat as measured on a carcass. Fat thickness is
This is an indicator of feed efficiency. It is the difference in animals’ daily consumption of feed to achieve the same level of daily gain. Lower RFI indicates greater feed efficiency.
Scrotal Circumference (SC)
Difference in scrotal size as an indication of fertility in replacement females. A higher score equates to higher scrotal size.
Marbling (MARB)
USDA marbling score at a similar end-point. The higher the marbling, the higher the USDA quality grade.
Ribeye Area (REA)
Ribeye area as measured on a carcass. REA estimates muscling in a beef carcass in square inches of ribeye at the 12th rib. Larger REA progeny have more muscle and higher percentage of retail product.
Stayability (STAY)
The chance a heifer will remain in the herd as a productive cow until at least six years of age. A higher value is desired.
Sunday April 13, 2025 19391 349th Avenue Ree Heights, SD
scored as depth of fat in inches over the ribeye muscle at the 12th rib. Higher fat thickness scores equate to lower lean yield.
Tenderness (TEND)
Genetic potential for beef tenderness (Warner- Bratzler Shear Force). A higher 1-10 score is more tender
Hot Carcass Weight (HCW)
Unchilled weight of a beef carcass. The higher the HCW, the greater the dressing percentage.
Docility (DOC)
Genetic potential to be calm or have calm offspring. Higher scores indicate a higher probability of acceptable disposition.
SELECT, MANAGE AND MARKET YOUR CATTLE
• Select replacement heifers that move you ahead on your fertility, production and quality goals
• Use DNA scores to manage breeding and production potential
• Leverage data in calf marketing, bred heifer sales or retained-ownership decisions MATERNAL, PERFORMANCE AND CARCASS TRAITS
• Pinpoint herd strengths and improvement areas
• Easy-to-read 1 to 10 scoring
• Predict traits heifers will pass on to their offspring
INDEXES FOR SELECTION DECISIONS
• Designed for multi-trait selection
• Emphasize balanced, maternal or beef system qualities
• Online tools to build your own index
