September 8, 2012

Dear Fellow Angus Breeders: Welcome to the 28th Edition of the Genetic Opportunity Sale! For us, this sale is the culmination of a full year’s worth of planning. Our philosophy over the past 28 years has not changed. We are proud to consistently offer top, cutting-edge genetics to progressive livestock producers. We agreed some 28 years ago that only cattle that we would love to retain in our own programs would be offered to you in this sale, and we stand by that commitment today.

We truly look forward to the opportunity to visit with our past customers and also welcome new buyers every year. We are proud that many champions have gone through our sale ring, and many champions have been produced by genetics purchased in this sale. We feel that the offering in this year’s event is the strongest and deepest of all the years in business.

We encourage you to visit our farms prior to the sale, and we sincerely hope that you, our Angus friends, can be with us this year!

Please join us Friday, September 7, the evening before the sale for fellowship, and of course sale day, Saturday, September 8, at noon.

Thank you for your continued support!

Dear Angus Friends and Fellow Cattlemen: Welcome to the 28th Annual Genetic Opportunity Sale! We are excited to bring you this outstanding offering in 2012. Grubbs Angus Farm and Les Craft Angus along with their sale guests, MCM Farms and Stewart Select Angus, have again assembled a set that illustrates the result of their combined experience in the purebred seedstock industry, spanning over seventy years and three generations…and their passion for the Angus female. They consistently bring forth their very best, and the care that was taken in the selection of this year’s offering is apparent in the group of cattle they have pooled for your appraisal.

The success that Genetic Opportunity customers have had with past investments is testament to the depth and quality present in past events, and this year is no exception. These cattle combine performance with excellent phenotype to become competitors at any level in our industry. The bottom line is: Genetic Opportunity cattle appreciate in value. The genetics and EPDs represented on both sides of these pedigrees are second to none. The Angus breed’s most popular sires are represented here as well as an exciting group of calves by the resident herd sires for each firm. Excellent show and donor prospects from power cow families and sired by breed-leading bulls will sell. Past Junior customers have claimed championship honors in show rings across the region and at every level of competition. Whether you select a proven female or an open prospect, you cannot go wrong. You will find an excellent set of replacement females—either sold alone or on the side of their dams. If you are searching for a young donor, don’t overlook the select set of bred heifers.

I am excited to again be working with this progressive group of Angus breeders in the marketing of their cattle. Evaluate your own situation and breeding goals, and on Saturday, September 8th, take advantage of the knowledge and cutting-edge efforts of these breeders and their programs. Please join us Friday evening for food and refreshments while you preview the cattle. Feel free to contact me or any of the owners with your questions or comments.

Sincerely,

This female has been a top producer in the Grubbs herd since Dale selected her from Pollard Farms in Oklahoma. The dam of Lot 2, Blackcap 2250, has generated over $50,000 in progeny sales for Pollard Farms. 4303’s famous granddam, Leachman Blackcap 8261, was the $135,000 top selling female in the 2003 Express Ranches sale to the Howard/Kerr Partnership. Two flushes from 8261 demanded $43,500 each in a Bases Loaded Sale in Denver. Two maternal sisters sold to J&J Cattle Company and Boruff’s Creekside in the 2008 Pollard Sale.

Spring Heifer Calves by Brilliance SAV Brilliance 8077, the sire of the heifer calves featured in Lots 2–7, offers a brilliant visual and numerical combination. He displays exceptional phenotype from all angles, abounding in thickness, muscle and style that you rarely find in a low birth weight sire. Brilliance had outstanding individual performance and scan ratios…

95 BW, 102 WW, 103 YW, 107 IMF and 105 REA. In addition, Brilliance is from the same foundation Blackcap May family that produced Net Worth, Density, Heritage and Providence, all major players in A.I. studs.

Early progeny have excelled in the show ring at both the National Western and National Junior Angus shows and include the Grand Champion Bull and Grand Champion Sale Bull at the 2012 National Western Stock Show.

The dam of Lot 26 was the top selling bred cow in the 2007 Genetic Opportunity Sale to Double Bar at Mason City, Ill. Her dam is a maternal sister to the dam of the heifer that was selected out of the 2010 Genetic Opportunity Sale that later sold in the 2011 Denim and Diamonds Sale for $26,000 to Rocklin Farms in Illinois.

The sire of Lot 26, SydGen DOC, combines the phenotype and eye-appeal many breeders are trying to find without compromising performance or predictable genetics. DOC’s sire is the number one proven sire for Docility, and DOC’s own temperament is incredible.

Lot 29 is line bred to the $35,000-valued embryo donor of MCM and Top Line Farm of Illinois, SAF Penelope P020. P020 made her mark in the show ring as a heifer as well as in the cow/calf division, but her most impressive work has been as a donor. WhitestoneKrebs purchased a flush in the 2006 Genetic Opportunity Sale and later another flush privately. A P020 son from their Vegas flush, WK Replay, was the $65,000 half interest high selling bull of the 2009 WK Bull Sale. WK Replay served as the anchor or “10” bull of the Reserve Grand Champion Carload of Bulls at the 2009 National Western in Denver.

A full sister to the dam of 207 sells as Lot 55.

The Countess genetics have consistently been some of the most proven and predictable lines in the Grubbs operation and others, and these two April heifers have the same visual and performance capabilities. The great-granddam of Lots 41 and 42 served as a donor in the LaGrand program in South Dakota. Countess 252 was a top indexing Pathfinder Dam with an impressive progeny weaning ratio of 116 on three natural calves combined with a %IMF ratio of 106 and a ribeye ratio of 101 on 45 head.

Whitestone-Krebs, from Nebraska, purchased a flush in the 2006 Genetic Opportunity Sale for $7,000 and later another flush privately. A son of P020 that resulted from the Vegas flush, WK Replay, was the $65,000 half interest and high selling bull of the 2009 Whitestone-Krebs Bull Sale. WK Replay served as the anchor or “10” bull of the Reserve Grand Champion Carload of Bulls at the 2009 National Western in Denver.
