What’s a bull worth? Cowman Formula Increase in pounds per calf from a top-performance bull X No. of cows bred to him per year X No. of years to keep the bull X Expected selling price of calves = Additional dollars you can pay for a better bull Example: A bull who will add 30 lbs. to the weaning weight of each of his calves mated to 25 cows per year for 4 years and you sell the calves for $1.50 per pound. 30 x 25 = 750 x 4 = 3000 x 1.50 = $4,500 This bull is worth $4,500 more than the average bull who will keep your weaning weights the same. Take this formula and put your own figures in and see what you can afford to pay. This equation does not consider the increase in value due to calving-ease, higher quality replacement heifers, yearling growth, feedlot gain and improved carcass quality.

Don’t buy an imposter. Not all “Angus” bulls are REGISTERED Angus bulls.
If you see this logo in conjunction with an individual animal or group of animals, you know that that animal is registered with the American Angus Association and backed by the power of data, programs and pedigrees of the Association. Invest wisely in those that carry the Powered By Angus logo.

Non-Parents – Registered animals born in the last 3 years with no current progeny in the Angus National Cattle Evaluation.
AMERICAN ANGUS ASSOCIATION SELECTION TOOLS Expected Progeny Difference (EPD), is the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to the progeny of other animals listed in the database. EPDs are expressed in units of measure for the trait, plus or minus. Interim EPDs may appear on young animals when their performance has yet to be incorporated into the American Angus Association National Cattle Evaluation (NCE) procedures. This EPD will be preceded by an “I”, and may or may not include the animal’s own performance record for a particular trait, depending on its availability, appropriate contemporary grouping, or data edits needed for NCE.
Calving Ease Maternal (CEM), expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf daughters. It predicts the average ease with which a sire’s daughters will calve as first-calf heifers when compared to daughters of other sires.
Accuracy (ACC), is the reliability that can be placed on the EPD. Accuracy will range from 0 to 1 with an accuracy closer to 1.0 indicating higher reliability. Accuracy is impacted by the amount of information that is included in the analysis including individual genotype and performance records as well as number of progeny and ancestral records.
Mature Weight (MW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the difference in mature weight of daughters of a sire compared to the daughters of other sires.
Maternal Milk (Milk), expressed in pounds of calf weaned, is a predictor of a sire’s genetic merit for milk and mothering ability in his daughters. In other words, it is the part of the calf’s weaning weight attributes to milk and mothering ability.
Mature Height (MH), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the difference in mature height of a sire’s daughters compared to daughters of other sires.
CARCASS PRODUCTION Carcass Weight (CW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the differences in hot Calving Ease Direct (CED), expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. It predicts carcass weight of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. the average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to Marbling (Marb), expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a first-calf heifers. sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Birth Weight (BW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit Ribeye Area (RE), expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires. area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Fat Thickness EPD (Fat), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in Weaning Weight (WW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to external fat thickness at the 12th rib (as measured between the 12th and 13th ribs) of a transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Yearling Weight (YW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit $VALUE INDEXES yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. $Value Indexes, expressed in dollars per head, are multi-trait selection indexes where Residual Average Daily Gain (RADG), feed efficiency expressed in pounds per day, is a a higher value suggests more profit. The $Value is an estimate of how future progeny predictor of a sire’s genetic ability for post-weaning gain in future progeny compared to of each sire are expected to perform, on average, compared to progeny of other sires if sires were randomly mated to cows and if calves were exposed to the same environthat of other sires, given a constant amount of feed consumed. ment. Dry Matter Intake (DMI), expressed in pounds per day, is a predictor of difference in transmitting ability for feed intake during the post-weaning phase, compared to that of Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M), expressed in dollars per head, predicts other sires. profitability differences in progeny due to genetics from conception to weaning by decreasing mature cow size and improving docility, foot structure and fertility while Yearling Height (YH), expressed in inches, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit maintaining weaning weights consistent with today’s production. yearling height compared to that of other sires. Weaned Calf Value ($W), expressed in dollars per head, provides the expected differScrotal Circumference (SC), expressed in centimeters, is a predictor of the difference ence in future progeny pre-weaning performance from birth to weaning. in transmitting scrotal size compared to that of other sires. Energy Value ($EN), expressed in dollar savings per cow per year with a larger value MANAGEMENT being more favorable. It assesses differences in cow energy requirements, due to Claw Set (Claw), expressed in units of claw-set score, a lower EPD is more favorable, maternal milk and mature cow size. indicating a sire will produce progeny with more symmetrical, even and appropriately spaced toes compared to another sire. Feedlot Value ($F), expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for post-weaning feedlot merit (growth and feed Foot Angle (Angle), expressed in units of foot-angle score, a lower EPD is more efficiency) compared to progeny of other sires assuming producers retain ownership of favorable, indicating a sire will produce progeny with an angle closer to 45 degrees at cattle through the feedlot phase and sell on a carcass-weight basis. the pastern and appropriate toe length and heel depth compared to another sire. Grid Value ($G), expressed in dollars per carcass, is the expected average difference Docility (DOC), expressed as a difference in yearling cattle temperament, with a higher in future progeny performance for carcass grid merit, including quality and yield grade value indicating more favorable docility in a sire’s offspring compared to another sire. attributes, compared to progeny of other sires. Pulmonary Arterial Pressure EPD (PAP), expressed in millimeters of Mercury Beef Value ($B), expressed in dollars per carcass, represents the expected average (mmHg), with a lower EPD being more favorable indicating a sire should produce differences in the progeny post-weaning performance and carcass value compared to progeny with a lower PAP score to decrease the risk of progeny contracting high altitude progeny of other sires. This index assumes commercial producers wean all male and disease most commonly experienced at 5,500 ft or greater in elevation. female progeny, retain ownership of these animals through the feedlot and sell on a carcass merit grid. Hair Shed EPD (HS), expressed in units of hair shed score, with a lower EPD being more favorable.

A higher EPD is the more favorable direction, and the EPD is reported in percentage units.
