2023 Rimrock Genomic Gems

SATURDAY | MAY 6, 2023 | 1 P.M.

GIDDINGS, TX

Welcome!

The family team at Rimrock would like to take this opportunity to invite everyone to the Homestead Sale Facility for the eighth annual Genomic Gems Sale May 6 at 1:00 P.M. We will have the cattle at the facility by mid-week, but cattle can be viewed at any time prior to the sale at the ranch. Friday evening the cattle will be up in the traps for viewing and refreshments will be available.

It is an opportune time to be in the cattle business for a multitude of reasons, but I see the driving economic factor being the reduction of national herd size creating a supply and demand issue. Some may argue this will only be short lived. I feel with the continuing pressure of developments consuming our farm and ranch lands, national cattle herd numbers will remain lower in the future. The market is also continuously demanding a higher quality product. What better way to achieve high quality than the time tested and proven genetics of Angus cattle. One of the first goals at Rimrock was to provide cattle with phenotype and curve bending genetics to ensure the cattle would be economically beneficial to our program as well as our customers. I can assure you Rimrock continually strives to achieve this goal. We actually measure this goal by following the success stories of our customers, for if they don’t succeed neither will we. The offering this year is packed full of great opportunities to purchase elite genetics. There are multiple females we would have loved to retain in the herd, but space is limited so we can’t keep all of them. The Lot #1 female is a good example of what are end goal is at Rimrock. I do believe she would check all the boxes in any program and the heifer calf on her side is phenomenal, both genetically and phenotypically. It will be a great pleasure watching what this female does in a new program. In my humble opinion, she will be the next female produced at Rimrock to generate a million dollars in progeny sales for her new owner. I simply love everything about this pair of cattle!

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has impacted the program at Rimrock over the years; from customers, consultants, breeders, vets and the list just goes on forever. If you have ever helped us out thank you, and please know our success is also your success. So, we cannot say “Thank You” enough.

We hope to see you all sale day, but if you are unable to attend, we understand life. So to accommodate, the sale will be hosted on CCI Live as well as videos of cattle available online prior to the sale. Parker, Matt, Lane and I will be more than happy to give you an honest opinion on the cattle and provide any additional information you may require.

DNA Scores

Selection Tools

RMRK RITA G203

$VALUE INDEXES

GROWTH

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.

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.

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.

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.

MATERNAL

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.

CARCASS

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 ageconstant 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.

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.

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.

Fat Thickness EPD (Fat), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in external fat thickness at the 12th rib (as measured between the 12th and 13th ribs) of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.

$VALUE INDEXES

$Value indexes, 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 Weaned Calf Value ($M), expressed in dollars per head, predicts profitability differences from conception to weaning with the underlying breeding objective assuming that individuals retain their own replacement females within herd and sell the rest of the cull female and all male progeny as feeder calves. The model assumes commercial producers will replace 25% of their breeding females in the first generation and 20% of their breeding females in each subsequent generation. Traits included are as follows: calving ease direct, calving ease maternal, weaning weight, milk, heifer pregnancy, docility, mature cow weight, claw set and foot angle. Weaned Calf Value ($W), an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for pre-weaning merit. $W includes both revenue and cost adjustments associated with differences in birth weight, weaning direct growth, maternal milk, and mature cow size.

Feedlot Value ($F), an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for post-weaning merit compared to progeny of other sires.

Grid Value ($G), an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for carcass grid merit compared to progeny of other sires.

Beef Value ($B), an index value expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for post-weaning and carcass value compared to progeny of other sires. Combined Value ($C), expressed in dollars per head, is an index which includes all traits that make up both Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M) and Beef Value ($B) with the objective that commercial producers will replace 20% of their breeding females per year with replacement heifers retained within their own herd. The remaining cull heifer and steer progeny are then assumed to be sent to the feedlot where the producers retain ownership of those cattle and eventually sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid. EPDs directly influencing a combined index are: CED, CEM, WW, YW, Milk, HP, DOC, MW, Angle, Claw, DMI, Marb, CW, RE and Fat.

I’m especially excited about the 2023 Genomic Gems Sale. This is always one of my favorites. It has always been one of the great sales in the south that has value, awesome phenotype with elite genomics and a great atmosphere. Bryan and Jonell Vay of Rimrock Production are two of the finest people in this business, and I am honored to call them both good friends. I personally enjoy getting to be there several times a year to spend time with them. Bryan has done a fabulous job acquiring/producing incredibly unique genetics that have gone on and performed beyond expectations for their new owners. His son Lane is more involved now than ever. He is doing a great job of procuring these genetics and getting these cattle bred and fed. He is as good as any young manager I’ve seen in the business.

The Lot 1 this year just may be my favorite female that I will sell all spring. Folks, this one is “big-time” good and is what I feel the business should be all about. She has it and can make the right kind. I love this female!!!! Lot 2 fits the same mold as Lot 1, and this one can make them and has made them. If it wasn’t for a partner selling out of the business, this one wouldn’t be for sale. The featured ET calves this year are very good, and my favorites in this group are 3A, 5 and 6A. The spring bred heifers are very nice and will be highlighted by Lots 7A and 9 as well as the spring open heifers as they are highlighted by 15 and 16A. The fall bred heifers always have a special place in my heart at Genomic Gems, and this just may be the best set yet. My picks in this group are 24, 25, 27, 28 and 30. 39A and 40 are two awesome fall bred cows, and in the fall pairs better keep your eyes open for 46A. The 3-N-1’s are a very nice set, but the spring pairs will steal the show and are highlighted by 53, 54 and 64.

We look forward to sale day on May 6 at 1 p.m. CDT in person or on CCi.Live. If you wish to see the cattle in person before the sale, please reach out to Bryan or Lane and they will be glad to show them to you. If you have any other questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me or Matt White.

Sincerely,

Parker Friedrich
