Fellow Cattlemen: THE WORKING BULL FOR THE WORKING MAN. The Blue Collar Bull sale was named for real Brad & Don Beus cattlemen in search of a hard working bull. With 2017 in the books, we are looking forward to what the New Year will bring. The market shows signs of stability. This is your chance to make improvements to your programs in order to receive the most optimal returns. It is no secret that acquiring a quality bull will do more to improve your calf crop than anything else you can do. We are excited to offer you our latest bull crop. This set of bulls will impress you with their expression of muscle and performance. We work hard to produce bulls that are phenotypically desirable, are big-footed and move well. We produce bulls that will add pounds to your calf crop and residual value to your bottom-line. If you take the time to study the performance data, you will see these bulls meet a very high standard for growth, maternal and carcass merit. Being in the cattle feeding business, we see great returns in cattle that excel on the rail, and we look heavily at those carcass traits. Beus Cattle is very much a family venture. It is very pleasing for us to continue the cattle rearing process as our third generation begins feeding and showing cattle. We have been building our herd of registered seedstock for over 28 years now and have been in the cattle feeding business for 39 years. It has come with its share of lessons learned; but the simple fact is we are here to stay, and we will be here to back our product. We have worked hard to bring this set of bulls to you, and we wish you the best as you make your selection. Please feel free to call about any of the bulls you may have questions about. Beus Cattle Company Brad & Don Beus 502 E. Vineyard Lane | Pasco, WA 99301 | 509-727-2082

3440 Manastash Rd. Ellensburg, WA 98926 509-962-9279 • 509-899-0815 (cell)
Rafter B is a family operation. We have been in the commercial cow/calf business since 1960 and have had our registered business herd close to 23 years. Our grandchildren have shown many steers from our herd over the years in 4-H and FFA and have been awarded with grand champion, reserve champion, placed in the top ten and won top carcass merits. We have great pride in producing sound bulls with balanced EPDs, fertility, longevity, growth, and good carcass traits with low birth rates. We want our bull crop to work well for anyone. It is very important to us to also keep a strong vaccination and mineral program. Thank you for taking the time to review the sale book. If you have any questions about the bulls, please call as we would be happy to talk with you and answer any questions you might have. Rafter B Ranch Larry & Harriet Bland

Sire of these three bulls is a proven calving-ease bull. His genetic package contains moderate birth, extreme growth & good carcass traits.
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 Direct (CED), is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. It predicts the average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers.
Cow Energy Value ($EN), expressed in dollars savings per cow per year, assesses differences in cow energy requirements as an expected dollar savings difference in daughters of sires. A larger value is more favorable when comparing two animals (more dollars saved on feed energy expenses). Components for computing the cow $EN savings difference include lactation energy requirements and energy costs associated with differences in mature cow size. The genetic evaluation produces a single set of EPDs for carcass weight, marbling score, Ribeye area and fat thickness. The units of measure are in carcass trait format and analyzed on an age-constant basis. Carcass Weight EPD (CW), expressed in pounds is a predictor of the differences in hot carcass weight of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.
Birth Weight EPD (BW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires.
Marbling EPD (Marb), expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.
Weaning Weight EPD (WW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires.
Ribeye Area EPD (RE), expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.
Yearling Weight EPD (YW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Scrotal Circumference EPD (SC), expressed in centimeters, is a predictor of the difference in transmitting ability for scrotal size compared to that of other sires.
Value indexes ($V), are multi-trait selection indexes to assist beef producers by adding simplicity to genetic selection decisions. $Values are reported in dollars per head, where a higher value is more favorable. The $Value is an estimate of how future progeny of each sire are expected to perform, on average, compared to progeny of other sires in the database if the sires were randomly mated to cows and if calves were exposed to the same environment.
Maternal Milk EPD (Milk), is a predictor of a sire’s genetic merit for milk and mothering ability as expressed in his daughters compared to daughters of other sires. In other words, it is that part of a calf’s weaning weight attributed to milk and mothering ability.
Beef Value ($B), an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for post-weaning and carcass value compared to progeny of other sires.
