Welcome to the Sale! Greetings and welcome to our 9th Annual Production Sale. It is with great pride and pleasure that we bring this set of bulls to you, our loyal and steadfast partners in American beef production. You may have noticed that we have a new sale venue this year. We’ve moved our annual sale from Valentine to Broken Bow, NE. While we were hesitant to leave Valentine and all of the good that has done for us, it is truly good to be home and also remain in one of the top 5 beef cow counties in the nation. Nebraska is the Beef State and it is our aim to continue painting the Beef State red with premier Red Angus genetics. The location may have changed, but the goal remains the same: to produce seedstock focused on improving profitability in all facets of production. It all starts with the cow for our operations. The cow is the foundation, the factory and the ultimate profit driver. With a sound built foundation, the possibilities throughout production chain are endless. We focus on correctness, disposition and a moderate framed, easy keeping cow that offers the potential to calve problem free year after year. This set of bulls is blessed with a base of hard working cows behind them that hit the marks for selective criteria that we strive to abide to. Within this group of herd sires, one will find a segment of heifer bulls with body and volume, a segment of power based sires fortified with explosive growth and a segment of manageable birthweight bulls that have carcass, substance and mass. What we hope you will find across the group, as a whole, is a set of bulls that are consistent in their type and kind. Bulls with rib shape and thickness, strong top lines and underlines that flow from nose to pins. Phenotype and genotype collide and profits ensue. Another change we made this year was to entrust our bulls to the care and expertise of Mr. Mitch Ziebell, at the Darr Bull Development Center, near Cozad, NE. We have been developing our bulls on our own for years and felt it was time to turn it over to a program that has been in the business of growing bulls for more than 25 years. They have fed for some of the top seedstock programs in the country and we are ecstatic with the expert treatment, care and nutrition that they have received. If you are near Darr, prior to the sale, the bulls will be housed there until March 17th. Visitors are more than welcome to stop in. Stop in and Mitch will surely point you in the right direction. As always, we are truly thankful and appreciative of the people that we serve and the relationships that we are blessed with. Feel free to contact any of us at any time with any questions that you may have. We want to make sure you find the perfect bull for your outfit. Thank you for your interest and we genuinely hope to see you on sale day in the heart of the Beef State, Broken Bow, NE.

The Flat Water Red Angus Gang


Fellow Red Angus Enthusiasts, It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the annual bull sale, hosted by the Flat Water Red Angus Gang. This progressive conglomerate of breeders have remained disciplined in their breeding decisions and have not wavered from putting emphasis on the key production traits that dictate profitability. Flawless feet and legs, sound udders, sensibly sized females that have to earn their keep are what make up the cow herds behind Sandbur Ridge Red Angus, Birnie Red Angus, and Cooksley Red Angus programs. As you will notice when flipping through the pages, there are large sire groups for you to select from. Emphasis is placed on calf crop uniformity, consistency, and longevity. Cow herd longevity is a major priority to this group of breeders, with many of the dam’s of bulls selling being a decade old or close to it. These females have stood the test of time, and are in the prime of their lives. A cow herd’s productivity, and fertility drastically enhance an operations bottomline, and these breeders believe in the fundamentals first, utilizing EPD’s only as a tool to enhance their product after the cattle prove themselves! Consider this your invitation to join us on March 19th in Broken Bow, Nebraska. The cattle will be on display starting the 18th at the Custer County Fairgrounds. New this year, the sale will be held at the One Box Convention Center at the Cobblestone Hotel & Suites just a few miles from where the cattle will be displayed. This will be a video auction that will take place in the comfort of the conference room at the convention center. Lunch will be provided at 12:00 noon and the sale will start at 1:00 PM. Videos will be available for viewing at www.InnovationAgMarketing.com the week prior to the sale. In the event that you cannot be in attendance, DVAuction.com will feature a real time broadcast to view and bid. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us with questions related to the offering. We hope to see you on the 19th of March in Broken Bow, Nebraska! Enjoy the Cattle, Innovation AgMarketing, LLC

Success is where preparation and opportunity meet.

10E is a definite heifer bull! The Lakota cow family tracing back to the 9151 cow is one of our very best. The cows we have in production are moderate framed and deep bodied, with rib shape, correct udders, a quiet presence, with fleshing ability and most important fertility! We keep everything we can out of this cow family simply because they work and they last! We currently have 3 direct daughters of 9151 and 3 granddaughters in production. We have never sold a female out of this cow family!

Heifer Bull alert! We purchased his grandam from the Milk Creek sale in 2014 as a bred heifer. The allure was that she went back to the dam to the 523 cow that is a donor in our embryo program in conjunction with Design Lass 515. She was a real tank! We really focus on maternal lineage and this bull is stacked with it. Correct udders, smooth attitude, and calving ease. Be sure to look up this stud on sale day!

Heifer Bull time! One of Paul’s favorite bulls in this years offering. The bulls that perform, offer the fundamental correctness, and eye-appeal in this program most generally trace to the iconic 9127. 9127 piles so much volume, substance and muscle in a moderate package. Same cow family as 10E that goes back to the Lakota 9151 cow. Moderate in frame, strong hipped, wide topped and bold rib shape is what can be expected from this lineage. This bull represents functionality, maternal strength, and is built for profit!

This bull is similarly bred to the 7E bull, the bottom side of the pedigree is built upon a foundation of productive cow families from the Sandbur Ridge’s program.

She calved this spring with her 7th natural calf! 65C bred back A.I. and has a U2 Renown bull calf at side. The maternal stability behind this prospect is second to none!

THE BLAZIN ON SIRE GROUP

Lot 81 - Ridge Blazin On 7077 Jacobson Blazin On 0057 was our pick of the bulls at the famed Jacobson program. This stud offers a heavily influence 5L pedigree that combines Double Blaze and Explorer, tracing back to the iconic OCC Emblazon 854E! He is a power packed, thick made, long sided, sound built bull that consistently sires fundamentally correct cattle that excel in all facets of the business. The daughters retained will be sensational from these Blazin On sons, as they are from no-miss cow families that have stood the test of time at Sandbur Ridge Red Angus, where udder quality, feet, and disposition issues are simply not tolerated! Maternal, low-input, high volume females back these herd sire prospects!

The 809 cow has been very productive for us, and this is a descendant of that cow line. She has raised 8 natural calves, is calving her 9th and has done so with a 102.53 MPPA with a 99 BW Ratio and 103 WW Ratio. 47E has great shape and muscle expression on a moderate frame.

43E is another Admiral son that is a must see on March 19th! He is thick topped, wide based, and powerful through his stifle. The influence of the great 523 donor shines through in the Admiral sire group!

FLAT WATER GANG BULL SALE


THE HUGHES SIRE GROUP This set of bulls from the Cooksley Red Angus program are sired by the $11,000 two-thirds interest herd sire selection from the Hall-Pokorny Bull Sale. He is known as HLH Hughes 8292 4117, 1A. He is sired by Bieber H Hughes W109, the go-to calving ease sire that is consistent and proven himself in the Bieber program. He is a big footed, sound built individual and maintains himself well on minimal supplementation. These sons offer moderate BW figures, with exceptionally balanced math. Don’t hesitate to tie these brothers together in order to create a more uniform sire group!

7025 is a son of MLK CRK Advocate 4304. The 4304 daughters in the female sale were a hit and we certainly understand why! Big ribbed, deep sided, low-input cattle that perform and excel in all facets. This bull is backed by the Blockana cow family, which traces to the great Normandy Canyon!

7120 offers a different twist on pedigree, with influence from the RED CROWFOOT 4 Aces 2193Z bull that is a standout north of the border! 4 Aces 2193Z was utilized for his outcross genetics, and superior phenotype. He was the high selling bull in 2013 commanding $30,000. He was exclusive to the Bar-E-L and Crowfoot programs in Canada. Study the power, genuine shape and expression that this bull offers if you need a different spin on genetics!

39E is fortified with excellent cow families. 4009’s dam F7 had 14 natural calves with a 100 MPPA. Troubadour is saturated with maternal excellence as bolstered by the Casey cow family. The cow family that backs this stud is stacked with generational production. Throw in the Lakota 9151 cow line and this pedigree becomes even more exceptional!

Riptide is yet another power packed bull that traces to the legendary F7 donor. F7 has been the foundation of the Sandbur Ridge program, and there is no denying the impact that she has had. Productive, longevity focused cows with superb udder quality, foot structure, and fleshing ability. Rest assured that these bulls are from truly productive females that are built to last and required to do so with limited assistance!

GENETIC SELECTIO TOOLS

Below you will find descriptions of the EPD Data listed in this sale catalog. 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. Accuracy (ACC), is the reliability that can be placed on the EPD. An accuracy of close to 1.0 indicates higher reliability. Accuracy is impacted by the number of progeny and ancestral records included in the analysis. GROWTH Calving Ease Direct (CED), is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in firstcalf 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. 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. Calving Ease Maternal (CEM), is 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.

Red Angus’ Stayability (STAY) EPD is a selection tool to improve overall cowherd efficiency through reducing replacement rate. Cows that stay productive, are problem free and last longer mean a larger percentage of heifers can be cash cropped, instead of developed as replacements. STAY predicts the probability of a bull’s daughters remaining productive until at least six years of age. 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 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. 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.
