Welcome... Welcome to our 10th Annual Bull Sale! I’d like to start off by saying that if global warming is manmade…keep up the good work. If we all pull together we can make Greenland green again! Well, now that I got the tree huggers mad at me we better get down to business. This will be our 17th year selling bulls, and our 10th year that we’ve had a sale. This just doesn’t get old. The excitement we feel every calving season as we wait to see if we made the right choice the spring before on what bull we bred to what cow just gets bigger and bigger the more generations of cows you add to the equation. This year is no exception as we start having our first Red TR Rolls Royce 44B, TR Deep Dark Knight 175B, and T-K Sand Hills 80B calves. We’re plum giddy. This year’s sale offering has got everything you need in an Angus bull, whether you’re looking for easy calving heifer bulls, big powerful herd bulls, and bulls with carcass data that rival any in the breed. The Charolais bulls are really split in 2 groups. We have lower birth weight bulls from the Sparrow and Wilgenbusch bulls that have come off of our 2 year old heifers, and then a powerful set of herd bulls with a few real rippers in there. The ultrasound shows the Char bulls are only carrying on average .12 inches of rib fat, so they are in their working clothes. The bulls are being fed again at TFS Fincastle, and can be viewed there up until Wednesday, March 16th, at which time they will go to the Ag-plex. Again, thanks to Huey and his crew, the bulls look great. We moved the sale up a week this year, only because the 4th Friday in March, our regular date, is Good Friday this year. Please take this as a personal invitation to come out on the 18th, whether you need a bull or not, and help us celebrate our 10th Annual sale. The refreshments will be chilled, and the steak will be perfect.

I’ve said before that this might be the most powerful bull we’ve ever used. They will be bigger calves at birth, but even so they are all born unassisted and there are never any extremes.

Purchased in 2012, Rollin Deep has been our best investment both in flat out cash, and in marketable breeding genetics. We paid $33000 for walking rights and 25% semen interest in him. To date in Canada alone we have sold over $35000 worth of semen. We then sold walking rights back down south, plus everything but our 25% Canadian semen interest for $50000 American. Than our 2 high sellers last year were both sons at $60000 and $19500 respectfully. The crazy thing is, his daughters might be the even better part. 10 sons sell

warm weather=lighter birthweights
This is definitely the trend we see at our place. The reason I bring this up now is because I know a lot of bull buyers have a set birth weight mark they won’t go over. The thing to keep in mind is that a 90 pound calf this year, as warm as it’s been, can’t be compared to a 90 pound calf from last year, or the year before. I’m shooting myself in the foot here, because our birthweights in this year’s sale are down on average a few pounds from the year before. Last year was a fairly mild winter, therefore the birthweights were a little lighter. This year so far, our birthweights are almost a good 10 pounds lighter. Generally speaking, a 90 pound calf in

Escalade is a bull that came off one of our most cherished cows, the old Crowfoot 6K. A prettier Angus cow you couldn’t make. When you see the Escalade daughters, you’d know why. He will fix udders, he will improve feet, and he will make a much more marketable carcass. We will continue to use him on that cow here and there that we feel needs a little something fixed in her. 3 sons sell

We were in need of a top notch heifer bull ( as we always are) and this guy impressed us with his thickness and sound structure. $15000 later and I think we made a good choice. His calves are all small and vigorous, and the bull himself is docile as can be with a great foot on him. 5 sons sell
Taber will be a 95 pound calf in Northern Alberta. You take that same calf to Texas, and he’ll be well under 80 pounds. The colder the climate, the heavier the calf. Same goes generally for January/February born calves vs. April/May. I think it has to do with the amount of blood pumped through the umbilical cord in colder weather. I don’t think you have to worry about it too much this year, but I think you’ll want to keep it in mind next year when you’re setting your weight limits.

This bull is apply named because that’s exactly what I said when I stepped outside on Dec. 22nd and saw LMY % him there. Rollin Deep obviously got out somewhere REA along the way, and luckily he was born on a warm IMF day, cause we weren’t watching.

Red Gene Carriers... A quick explanation on how the red gene is passed on If you breed a black red gene carrier to black cows with no red gene, you will get black calves. If some of your cows are black, but do have the red gene, then you have a 25% chance of getting a red calf. If you breed a black red gene carrier to red cows then you have a 50% chance of getting red calves. If you breed a red bull, with black in its pedigree to red cows, they will always be red calves. Red bred to red will always be red.

This guy has very nice performance numbers to match his flashy look. A 102 wean index, followed by a 119 gain index. Then he tops it off with a 107 REA index, a 102 IMF, and a below average rib fat of 89. All this with an 83 pound birthweight. Could probably be used on well watched heifers.

Understanding Ultrasound In order to use body composition EPD’s or ultrasound data to its full potential, a breeder must have an understanding of ultrasound terminology. Several of the ultrasound measurements are comparable to the familiar carcass measurements. The data is simply collected on yearling bullsa and heifers instead of market ready steers. Take a step back from looking at the numbers and become comfortable with the terminology.
ULTRASOUND CARCASS MEASUREMENTS
RibFat/Backfat: An external fat measurement taken between the 12th and 13th rib reported in inches. Rib fat is the main trait that affects percent lean meat yield ie; A1, A2, A3 & A4. Percent lean meat yield is the calculation that estimates the percent of lean muscle on the carcass. For example, a lean meat yield of 60% on a 100lb carcass would have 600 lbs of lean muscle and 400 lbs of bone and fat. Ribeye Area (REA): An area measurement of the loin or ribeye muscle. Reported in square inches. While an increase in backfat wil lower the percent lean meat yield an increase in REA will raise the percent lean meat yield. Rump Fat: An external fat measurement taken from an image collected between the hooks and the pins of the animal.Reported in inches. The rump fat measurement, coupled with the rib fat measurement will increase the accuracy of percent lean meat yield. Intramuscular Fat (%IMF)/Marbling: This measurement determines the amount of fat within the muscle. Reported in %. This measurement us used to determine the quality grade of the carcass.
