2023 More Than a Bull Sale Catalog

Dear Friends,

Welcome to the 18th Annual Red Hill “More Than a Bull” Sale. Thanks to all previous customers for your purchases and the confidence you have placed in our breeding program. We are grateful for all our customers and especially proud that most are REPEAT customers. We are also grateful for those who have shown interest and followed our breeding program through the years.

Our primary goal at Red Hill is to provide practical breeding stock to improve the profitability of our commercial customers’ cattle operations. We also offer bulls with the genetic potential to positively impact most seedstock herds.

At Red Hill, we have always developed bulls for optimal structural soundness and longevity. Since young bull management can be problematic during the first breeding season, we have decided to market primarily 18-month-old bulls when possible. In this sale, the Red Angus, Charolais, and Cross-Ty bulls will be age advantaged, but we are offering a select group of 14-month-old SimGenetics bulls.

Since our first sale, Red Hill has provided the most meaningful EPDs and Indexes in the industry. After three years of intensive study, we made the decision to enroll our herd in the Leachman “Profit Share” Genetic Evaluation. This program offers a more complete suite of EPDs and the most meaningful Indexes in the beef industry. The $Profit Indexes will be used for making selection decisions in the Red Hill program, and we encourage our commercial producers to do likewise.

A major reward of the seedstock business is the opportunity to enjoy the friendship and fellowship of our customers and fellow breeders. Visitors are always welcome to visit our farm to study our cattle, records, and production system. After reviewing the catalog, please contact us with any questions.

Bart, Sarah and Ty Jones Gordon and Susan Jones

RETAINED OWNERSHIP:

Red Hill Farms retains a 1/2 semen interest in all bulls selling.

We are selling 100% possession and 100% salvage or resale value. This gives Red HIll Farms the option to collect, use and market semen from the bull and does not restrict the buyer from doing the same.

VETERINARIAN: Roger Thomas, DVM, Thomas and England Veterinary Services, (270-563-0011). Contact Dr. Thomas for any questions regarding Red Hill Farms’ herd health or breeding soundness exams of the sale bulls.

FERTILITY/DISPOSITION GUARANTEE: We guarantee the fertility and disposition of every bull selling. All bulls sell with a breeding soundness exam (BSE) certificate. Each bull is guaranteed to be a satisfactory breeder; assuming the buyer provides acceptable nutrition, health and management.

• If a bull proves to be a non-breeder, the buyer must contact Bart Jones or Sarah Jones on or before January 15, 2024, to make a claim.

• Red Hill Farms reserves the right to request a statement from a veterinarian and/or the bull being returned to Red Hill Farms at the buyer’s expense.

• If proper claim is made, the buyer will be given full credit if the bull is returned, OR full credit minus salvage value if the bull was sold with the credit to be used in a future Red Hill Farms sale.

GENOMIC ENHANCED EPDS: Bulls that have genomic enhanced EPDs are designated in the catalog with a logo.Most of the bulls selling have been genomically enhanced. DNA markers provide molecular breeding values which are used to enhance the EPDs and improve the accuracy of the EPDs. This is particularly important because the EPDs on these bulls are much more accurate than prior to the use of these DNA values. These enhanced EPDs now have the same meaning as data for bulls that have several progeny records.

SALE PROCEDURES: We will conduct a “Farmers’ Auction” to sell each individual lot. Cattle sell in catalog order. Each animal has a base price listed in the catalog. When it is time to sell a particular animal, we will ask those interested to hold up their buyer number. If only one number is in the air, the animal will be sold at the base price to that individual. If there are multiple numbers in the air, we will gradually raise the price until one number remains. If there is a tie (last two bidders drop out at the same time), the bid is given to the buyer with the lower buyer number. The other bidder may raise the bid by $250 if he wishes to stay in the auction. We intend for this to be a simple, low-pressure sale for the benefit of all involved.

HEALTH: All cattle are vaccinated using Merck vaccines. Please contact us with any health questions.

Sale Information

Red Hill Cooperators/Partners

COYOTE HILLS FARM (CCCH) – Coyote Hills is owned by the Dal Clark Family, Scottsville, KY. The Clark family has been in the Red Angus business since 2006. The Coyote Hills cattle are heavily influenced by Buffalo Creek and Red Hill genetics.

BUFFALO CREEK RED ANGUS (BUF) – The name Buffalo Creek is forever synonymous with quality Red Angus cattle. After the Buffalo Creek dispersal, Gini Chase asked if we would manage some of her personal cows. We were excited she would send these cows to Red Hill. We enjoy working with Gini, as it is always good to get wisdom from a master breeder. Gini has been a great supporter of our program!

ROGERS CATTLE COMPANY (RCC) – Rogers Cattle Company, LLC started in 2001 as a diversified pasture-based livestock operation and is owned by Johnny and Sharon Rogers. Their herd consists primarily of fall calving Red Angus cows which are mated to Red Angus bulls. Johnny and Sharon strive to produce cattle that thrive on intensively grazed fescue based pastures, as well as have great maternal ability, grow well and have excellent carcass merit.

HARDROCK BEEF CATTLE (HBC) – Hardrock Beef Cattle was started by Ronnie and Donna Holman on the family farm in the western piedmont of North Carolina. Both Ronnie’s father and son are integral participants in the cattle management. Today the herd is comprised of Red Angus and red SimAngus cattle. Hardrock Beef Cattle operates on a Kentucky 31 based forage system.

FROBOSE FAMILY FARMS (4HFF) – Dan and Vicki Frobose and Family own Frobose Family Farms in Pemberville, OH. The Frobose name is synonymous with livestock. Dan was formerly an Ohio State University beef Extension specialist and swine field man. Vicki is a veterinarian. Dan visited Red Hill a few years ago looking for easy fleshing, grassbased genetics and has infused Red Hill genetics into his cattle program.

TULLOCH AGRICULTURE INC (TUL) – Mike Tulloch has been involved in beef agribusiness for most of his life. He currently operates Tulloch Agriculture in Northern Ontario, Canada, just beyond the Upper Peninsula of the State of Michigan. Mike raises red and black SimAngus seedstock and commercial cattle. He is also a partner of a beef feedlot (finishing 2,000 head per year) and a new processing facility selling beef and pork products. Therefore, his cattle herd is developed with an emphasis on rapid growth, feed conversion, and carcass merit.

FRAME SCORES: Frame size in cattle is an extremely important trait, and deciding on the frame size needed in the next herd bull should be one of the major criteria for selection. Unfortunately, frame scoring is NOT an exact science. If cattle are on halter and easy to handle, frame scoring can be quite repeatable. However, when measuring frame score in the chute while collecting other yearling data, the measurements are not as repeatable as desired. We have decided to break the frame scores into thirds for the bulls this year. For example, a 4 frame score would have been between 4.33 and 4.66 in the past while a 4 - would have been between 4.0 and 4.33 and a 4 + would have been between 4.67 and 4.99. Stated another way a 4 – is a low 4, 4 is an average 4 and 4 + is a high 4.

Spring 2023 – Red Hill Farms Sale Information

$Profit ® now laser-focused for 2023 and beyond!

On December 12th, 2022, the $Profit® System made its largest modification in history.

This unprecedented change was driven by new technology, better data, and changing markets. The primary drivers of the changes were as follows:

Change #1. The system incorporated the Zoetis Cow Fertility EPD into $Ranch® and $Profit®. The Cow Fertility EPD predicts large differences in the calf crop percentage expected from a bull’s daughters!

• The Zoetis Cow Fertility EPD was launched in May of 2021. It included data on over 160,000 dams with over 975,000 calving records. These dams have pedigree links to the entire 1.4 MM animal $Profit database. This includes cowherd data from all of the $Profit Partner herds listed below

• After extensive investigation, we believe that this EPD is the single best predictor of a cow’s lifetime productivity.

• Model analysis demonstrates that the number of calves produced in a cow’s lifetime is DIRECTLY related to that female’s probable annual calf crop percentage weaned.

• Higher Fertility EPD bulls produce daughters that will wean a higher average annual calf crop percentage weaned.

• These calf crop percentage differences drive HUGE differences in profitability

• High Fertility EPD bulls will build cow herds with consistently better breed back, higher calf crop percentage weaned, less culling requirements, and reduced replacement rates.

These modifications have significantly changed the expected $Ranch®, $Feeder®, and $Profit® for animals in the $Profit® System database.

• Selection for $RANCH® will build the most fertile and efficient cows.

• Selection for $FEEDER® will build steers that efficiently gain and reach Prime marbling.

• Selection for $PROFIT® will create the industry’s leading cowherds for fertility, efficiency, marbling, and profitability.

Contact these $Profit Partners for more information and higher fertility genetics!

Change #2. The $Feeder® Index was adjusted to place more emphasis on reducing feed costs.

• Feed to Gain is more important than ever in the feedlot. Cattle with inefficient gains cannot efficiently reach higher carcass weights and higher marbling targets.

Change #3. 2022 markets showed a record Choice/Select spread and record Choice/Prime spread that make marbling more valuable than ever!

• In 2022, the difference between the Choice cutout value and the Prime cutout value was just over $55 per cwt. This occurred despite record percentages of cattle grading Prime. On an 850-pound carcass, this is worth a shocking $467 per head.

• Most Prime beef is still sold in the US domestic market. Increasingly, consumers are buying Prime beef in the retail case. The global export market for Prime is relatively un-tapped.

Our cows bred up 94% and our 2-year-olds bred up 90% – all in a year with 3" less than normal rain. Plus, our calves

RED ANGUS GUIDE TO EPDS

ProS Profitability and Sustainability is an all-purpose index that predicts average economic differences in all segments in the beef supply chain. This index is a combination of the breeding objectives modeled in the HerdBuilder and GridMaster selection indexes. In this index, replacement heifers are retained from within the herd and all remaining progeny are fed out to slaughter and sold on a quality-based grid. Traits included in this index include calving ease, growth, HPG, STAY, Mature Weight, Dry Matter Intake and carcass traits. The resulting index is expressed in dollars per head born (Index/High Value).

HB......... HerdBuilder is a maternal selection index that predicts the economic differences of animals for traits that are important from conception through weaning. Expressed as dollars per head born, HB is calculated based on the scenario that bulls are mated to heifers and cows, replacement heifers are retained and all remaining progeny are marketed at weaning. Traits included in the HB index include Calving Ease Direct, Calving Ease Maternal, Weaning Weight, Milk, Mature Weight, Heifer Pregnancy and Stayability (Index/High Value).

GM ........ GridMaster is a selection index that predicts the average economic difference of nonreplacement calves through the post-weaning phase of production. GM places selection pressure on growth, feedyard performance and carcass traits. Expressed as dollars per head born, GM is calculated based on the scenario that progeny are fed out to slaughter and marketed on a qualitybased carcass grid. Traits included in GM include Average Daily Gain, Carcass Weight, Dry Matter

Intake, Marbling, Back Fat and Rib Eye Area (Index/High Value).

CED ...... Calving Ease Direct predicts differences in the percent of calves born unassisted out of 2-year-old dams. (Percent/High Value)

BW ......... Birth Weight predicts differences in actual birth weight of progeny. (Pounds/Low Value)

WW Weaning Weight predicts differences in 205-day weaning weight. (Pounds/High Value)

YW Yearling Weight predicts differences in 365-day yearling weight. (Pounds/High Value)

ADG ....... Average Daily Gain predicts differences in weight gain between 205 and 365 days of age. (Pounds/High Value)

DMI Dry Matter Intake predicts differences in daily feed intake as measured in a feedlot during the post-weaning period. (Pounds/Low Value)

MILK Milk predicts differences in weaning weight attributed to the milking ability of the animal’s daughters. (Pounds/High Value)

ME Maintenance Energy predicts the difference in maintence energy requirements. (Mcal per Month/Low Value)

HPG Heifer Pregnancy predicts differences in the percent of daughters who are able to conceive and calve at 2 years of age following exposure to breeding. (Percent/High Value)

CEM ....... Calving Ease Maternal predicts differences in the percent of daughters who are able to calve unassisted as 2-year-old heifers. (Percent/High Value)

STAY Stayability predicts differences in the ability of an animals’ retained daughters to remain productive in the herd – calve every year – through 6 years of age. (Percent/High Value)

MARB Marbling predicts differences in marbling score – amount of intramuscular fat measured at the 13th rib. (Marbling Score Units/ High Value)

YG Yield Grade predicts differences in USDA Yield Grade, which is calculated using CW, REA and Fat. (Yield Grade Units/Low Value)

CW Carcass Weight predicts differences in actual hot carcass weight. (Pounds/High Value)

REA Ribeye Area predicts differences in square inches of ribeye area measured at the 13th rib.(Square Inches/High Value)

FAT Fat predicts differences in the depth of backfat measured between the 12th and 13th ribs. (Inches/Low Value)

J674 is a slick-haired, balanced bull with elite calving ease. His dam, E71, was flushed in 2022 to 233J (Lot 1 in this sale.) She is moderate with good performing calves. Cattle that are productive on reduced inputs will have tremendous value in the future. E71 has the suite of traits needed to produce functional, forage-based cattle.

BACK FAT (BF): Inches of back fat.

$ INDEXES: Though EPDs allow for the comparison of genetic levels for many economically important traits, they only provide a piece of the economic puzzle. That’s where $ indexes come in. Through well-conceived, rigorous mathematical computation, $ indexes blend EPDs and economics to estimate an animal’s overall impact on your bottom line. The same technology that led to the dramatic progress in swine, poultry and dairy genetics over the last several decades was used to develop the following $ indexes:

AL-PURPOSE INDEX (API): Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd (bred to both Angus first-calf heifers and mature cows) with the portion of their daughters required to maintain herd size retained and the remaining heifers and steers put on feed and sold on a carcass grid basis.

TERMINAL INDEX (TI): Evaluates sire for use on mature Angus cows with all offspring put on feed and sold on a carcass grid basis.

USING API AND TI: First, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping replacements, use API. If not, then TI. Just as with EPDs, focus on the unit difference between bulls. (As described above, index units are in dollars per cow exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you can quickly figure a bull scoring $140 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over a $90 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over four years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed.

REDHILL 701T 513T 273B has worked her way to elite status in our herd. We have retained 3 daughters that are simply fantastic. One of her daughters, 446F, raised our top selling bull in the 2022 sale, RedHill Countryman 81J, that sold to JC Simmentals (MI). 273B has 12 progeny that average 120 IMF ratio. She is consistently the dam or granddam of our top IMF scanning cattle. Additionally, as a bonus, 273B’s udder and teats are near perfect. Her pedigree is stacked with performance leaders and influencers of many Simmental cattle – GW 701T x Blue Moon x Lucky One (Lucky Strike son) x Lucky Buck x 407D (dam of Lucky Strike and Lucky Dice.)

Cross-Ty 18-Month-Old Bulls

Red Hill Farms – Spring 2023

Cross-Ty Bulls

There is good reason this program is going to be called Cross-TY. Ty Jones is involved in everything we do at Red Hill, and he is adventurous. He has heard so much positive family discussion about crossbreeding and hybrid vigor that he is totally sold on providing Red Hill customers with the opportunity to reap the economic advantages gained from crossbreeding.

Ty has also observed the tremendous performance advantages of crossbred pigs compared to purebreds. We will continue to identify cattle from other breeds that adapt to the fescue environment and management scheme at Red Hill. The reason for these experimental efforts is to identify breeds that can be used to provide more opportunities to increase the profitability of our customers. These new genetics are likely to be made available as hybrids or composites; however, we will not rule out the use of one or two other pure breeds in the future.

South Poll Crossbred Bulls

The South Poll (OP) breed is a Composite breed developed by Teddy Gentry at Bent Tree Farms in AL. Ty and his granddad visited Bent Tree and had the chance to see the outstanding Foundation herd of this Southern Adaptable breed. After studying the herd, Ty decided to mate some of his cows to a South Poll bull.

344J is a purebred South Poll bull. 344J’s dam was purchased from Teddy Gentry at Bent Tree Farms. 344J’s dam is easy fleshing with a good udder. 344J would be a good bull to use for those who are serious about making smaller framed, low input cattle.

Her fleshing ability and body volume are things that we select for and love at Red Hill. 308C is always one of the first cows to shed her hair each year and her progeny possess these same traits. She is a very fertile cow and is one of the first cows to breed every year. 308C’s first son was 235E. 235E was the lead off Simmental bull in the 2019 fall sale and went to Jay Price (KY). Her 2nd son, 283G, has been retained at Red Hill and is now breeding cows for us. 283G’s progeny have many of the positive attributes that his mother has to offer. In 2020, we flushed 308C to 231A. These bulls should sire females like their mother but also bring some extra growth and carcass to the table from 231A.

Docility and Foot Scores Explained

At Red Hill Farms, cows are scored annually for Claw Shape and Foot Angle. Young bulls and heifers are scored as yearlings. All cattle with unacceptable foot scores are no longer used for seedstock production.

Calves are evaluated and scored for docility at weaning and yearling. All cattle with scores of 3 or greater are culled.

DOCILITY SCORES

1 – Calm: Content with human interaction

2 – Okay: Moves away as a person approaches

3 – Discontent: Good for big range country

4 – Nervous: Culled

5 – Aggressive: Culled
