3 Welcome Stacie, Troy, Heather, Curtis & Laurie Brown Cattlemen, Welcome to our 24th Annual Production Sale. We are very proud of the set of seedstock we are presenting to you this year. As I look through the pen this year, I can proudly say that our top has never been as strong as it is this year. The sires we are using are producing seedstock that will excel you, our customers, to a new level that will be the most profi table cattle you will have every sold. Although we may not have very many AI-sired calves in the sale, the uniformity and consistency of this set of bulls will let you over look that detail. If you are in need of multiple bulls, you will be able to select a group of bulls that will match your needs to put uniformity in your next calf crop. We will have 38 yearlings, nine fall yearlings, and one 2-year bull for your evaluation this year. Plus, we have a terrifi c set of registered open Charolais heifers that are going to make excellent cows. Again we will have a group of 25 Red Angus fi rst-calf heifers with Charolais-cross calves at side. These will also be of top quality. The bulls have been on the same ration they have been on for years, which is a TMR of corn silage, chopped hay, rolled corn and a protein supplement, with free choice long hay. The fall yearling bulls and the 2-year-olds will offer you some age to be able to run a few more cows with them. Yearling weights on the fall bulls will be lower then the yearlings for they are managed quite differently. We would like to thank you for your interest in our cattle. Also, we would like to thank our past customers for their support and loyalty to our program. You make it possible for us to continue to bring the best genetics to town for everyone to stay profi table so we can all live this wonderful life we live in our country on the ranch. Please join us for a complimentary dinner before the sale. If we can be of any assistance to you, please just ask. Sincerely, Curtis 1

25 Open Heifers These heifers were selected right out of the replacement pen. They are very fancy. One might even be able to pick a show prospect out of this pen. But I will leave that up to someone with the eye for that kind of thing. They will make excellent cows and are guaranteed to milk and raise a big calf come fall. 037 C B Miss Bluestar 037 2/15/10 POLLED F BW WW 205 Ratio WF ALL STAR 764 PLD LT BLUEGRASS 4017 P JCR MISS BLUEGRASS 872 P JCR IMPRESSIVE 407 P LT ASSERTION 1277 P LT PEARL S BREEZE 2236 P JWK IMPRESSIVE D040 ET JCR MISS DUKE Here is a Bluegrass grandaughter out of Heather s cow.

27 AICA EPD Guide Calving Ease Direct (CE) is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births in first calf heifers. A higher value indicates greater calving ease. It predicts the average difference in unassisted births with which a sire s calves will be born when bred to first-calf heifers. Birth Weight EPD (BW) The expected difference in average birth weight (pounds) of progeny. Birth weight reflects prenatal growth. Calving Ease Maternal (MCE) is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births in first calf daughters. A higher value indicates greater calving ease. It predicts the average difference in unassisted births with which a sire s daughters will calve as first-calf heifers when compared to daughters of other sires. Weaning Weight EPD (WWT) The expected difference in average weaning weight of calves. The evaluation reflects the genetic influence on pre-weaning growth rate. Yearling Weight EPD (YWT) The expected difference in average yearling weight of progeny. The evaluation reflects genetic influence on both pre-weaning and postweaning growth rate. Maternal Milk EPD (MAT) The genetic ability of a sire s or dam s daughters to express in pounds of weaning weight in her calves due to her maternal ability through mothering instinct and milk. Total Maternal EPD (TOTMAT) A value to predict the weaning weight performance of calves from a animal s daughters due to genetics for growth and maternal ability. Total Maternal is calculated by adding ½ the WWT EPD to the Maternal Milk EPD. Scrotal Circumference EPD (SC) The expected difference in scrotal circumference (expressed in centimeters) of a bull s or dam s male offspring at yearling compared to progeny of all other animals evaluated. Research has also indicated a relationship between increased SC EPD and decreased age at puberty for daughters. Carcass Weight EPD (HCW) Expected progeny differences for Carcass Weight is a predictor of pounds of retail product at a constant age endpoint. Selection for increased values should result in heavier carcasses, while selection for decreased values should result in lighter carcass weights at the same age endpoint. Carcass Weight EPD are expressed in pounds and is a predictor of the differences in hot carcass weight between parents progeny at an age constant endpoint. Ribeye Area EPD (REA) Ribeye area is measured from a cross-sectional area of the longissimus dorsi muscle at the 12th rib. Ribeye area is a major component of the USDA yield grade equation and selection for increased ribeye area should result in larger ribeyes and lower yield grades between animals with the same carcass weight. Ribeye area has a positive relationship with weight, the larger the animal the larger the ribeye area. Ribeye Area EPD are expressed in square inches and is a predictor of differences in ribeye area between parents progeny at a constant age endpoint. Fat Thickness EPD (FAT) Fat thickness is measured at the 12th rib and is the primary component to the USDA Yield Grade equation. Fat thickness has a negative relationship to cutability; therefore, selection base on decreased fat thickness should result in lower yield grades and leaner cattle given the same age endpoint. Fat Thickness EPD are expressed in inches and are a predictor of differences in fat thickness between parent s progeny at an age constant endpoint. Marbling Score (MARB) Marbling is a subjective measure of the amount of intramuscular fat in the ribeye muscle. Marbling score is the primary component of USDA Quality grade and selection for increased Marbling Score EPD should result in cattle with higher quality grades at the same age endpoints. Marbling score has a small genetic correlation with fat, therefore producers may select for increased marbling score EPD while not changing external fat thickness when cattle are harvested at the same age-constant endpoint. Marbling EPD is a prediction of the differences in the USDA subjective marbling score between parent s progeny at an age constant endpoint.
