1 Cowman s POST ROCK CATTLE COMPANY Kind BULL & FEMALE SALE FEBRUARY 25, :30 pm (cst) Post Rock Cattle Company Sale Facility Barnard, Kansas

2 Bill Clark Leland Clark Dear Fellow Cattle Producers: POST ROCK CATTLE COMPANY Welcome to this year edition of the Cowman s Kind bull and female sale. Our crystal ball isn t as clear as many industry experts and seedstock producers who annually forecast the future for the beef industry this time of year. So as usual, we will refrain from that bit of wisdom. However what is abundantly clear is that producers who have implemented a cross breeding program combined with a strong preventive herd health program have extra pounds, extra genetics and extra management practices to market and they are being rewarded like never before. Granted, not everyone is making money as they were only 2 short years ago but reasonable profits remain for those who are willing to do the extra work to produce superior cattle. This year s sale offering is extremely strong. The bulls are a tremendous group and they are loaded from top to bottom in both the purebred and balancer divisions. We are offering many new AI sire groups to choose from and some of our most proven genetics sell in volume sire groups. Many of the cows who produced this bull crop have multiple generations of AI & ET mating s stacked to produce the highest quality herdsires available. Over 600 cows and many AI & ET mating s were used to produce the bulls selling this year and the sale offering reflects that level of culling and commitment. Additionally we feel the 6 year old and 2 year old females are our strongest group to date. Many of the elite, proven donors of the breed are the dam or granddam of the females selling. We are proud of each and every bull and female selling and each animal is expected to have a positive impact on their new owners herd. As in the past, we have bulls from our cooperator herds: Meadowlark Gelbvieh, Dawson Creek Gelbvieh, Twin Oak Gelbvieh, and Stucky Beef Genetics. Our cooperator herds allow us to increase the selection pressure placed on the bulls and they make it possible for us to offer more bulls. We share in the income from these bulls, and they are represented and guaranteed just like our bulls. Should a problem arise, you will deal with Post Rock. We hope to assist you in increasing your profitability, as our survival in the seedstock business is based upon it. We have learned from experience that, unfortunately, we cannot spend enough time with each of you on the sale day. We encourage you to call or visit at any time prior to the sale. We look forward to seeing you February 25th at the sale. Sincerely, Bill and Leland Clark Where calving ease, performance and eye-appeal come together E.

4 Terms The terms of the sale are cash. Animals are to be paid for during or immediately following the sale. Each animal will be sold to the highest bidder. We have made every effort to provide as complete and accurate information as possible. However, announcements from the auction stand will take precedence over information printed in the catalog. Bidding Any disputes or challenges regarding bids shall be settled by the auctioneer, and his decision shall be final. Mail or telephone bids will be handled with strictest of confidence. Semen Check & Guarantee Each bull is guaranteed to settle healthy, fertile females and has been semen tested. Should any bull be claimed a non-breeder, the recommendation of the American Gelbvieh Association will apply. However, this does not preclude us from making adjustments that are mutually beneficial to both parties. First Breeding Season Guarantee If any bull purchased in the Cowman s Kind Sale or privately from Post Rock dies or is disabled during the first 90 days following first turn out of a young bull, the following guarantee will apply. If your young bull is temporarily unable to complete the breeding season, if possible, Post Rock will provide you with a loaner bull without cost to you other than transportation of the bull from and back to Post Rock. If your bull becomes permanently disabled, Post Rock will allow full credit ($5000 Maximum) toward the purchase of one bull in the next Post Rock sale. Post Rock will receive the salvage value of the injured bull. Should the bull you purchase cost more than your credit you pay the difference. If he costs less, no further credit is due to you. The above warranty is for bulls used in a single sire breeding pasture. If two or more bulls are used in a breeding pasture the warrant is reduced to 50% of the initial purchase cost. If your bull dies within the first 90 days Post Rock will credit you with 50% of the purchase price and provide a loaner bull if available at no cost. If you have a problem, please notify us as soon as possible since we try to keep a few bulls available in case your new Post Rock bull is disabled during the first breeding season. Liability All persons attending the Cowman s Kind Sale do so at their own risk.

Registration Certificates Registration certificates will be transferred on all sale lots at the seller s expense, except for those marked as unregistered or announced otherwise. Sight Unseen Purchases If you are unable to attend the sale, a bull can be purchased for you on order during the auction. Please call either Bill or Leland in advance of the sale and discuss with us the price range and the type of bull you are looking for, and we will recommend the bull or bulls that will fit your needs. If you don t like the bull when he is delivered to your place, he s not yours; and the money paid will be refunded. If the bull can be purchased for less than your maximum bid, you get the bull for the amount he left the ring at, just as if you were bidding for yourself. Each year, breeders take advantage of this free service. Call if you would like more information or a reference. For sight unseen satisfaction guarantees, you must purchase an animal that either Bill or Leland have previously recommended to fit your needs. Mortality Insurance Insurance will be available on sale day at the rate of 4% of the purchase price for 6 months coverage. Other rates apply for longer or shorter insured periods. Inquire at the clerks table. Trich Testing Many states have new rules for trich testing and none of the sale bulls have been tested. Should a Trich Test be required Post Rock will pay costs involved and complete the testing requirements soon following the sale. TELE-AUCTION AVAILABLE Post Rock is located in a very poor cell phone reception area and we encourage you to utilize this service. If you will be unable to attend the sale, you can do your own bidding via a conference telephone hook up that will connect you to ringside for the sale. You will be able to listen to the sale in progress, talk directly to our ringside representative and bid. Buyers interested in the option should call Bill prior to sale day at You will be given the phone number and pass code to join the tele-auction and assigned a bidder number with which to do your bidding. Your only cost will be your normal long distance charges, charged by your long distance carrier. This would work well if you have looked at the sale offering prior to sale day and for sight unseen purchases. page 2

5 FALL BULLS The fall bulls were weaned April 29 after being raised on their dams on milo stocks or native pasture with sorghum silage, DDG, and ammoniated wheat straw and received no creep feed. After weaning, the bulls were raised on a rotational grazing system on sedan grass with supplementation of Purina Feeds acu-ration and 8 lbs. of corn per day. On 10/23/15, they were switched to a ration of silage, wet distillers, 1 lb. of corn per 100 lbs. of body weight, ammoniated wheat straw, and grinding-quality alfalfa hay. SPRING BULLS Spring bulls were raised on their dams on native pasture and received no creep. They were weaned August 28 and were placed on a gain test on 10/23/14 through 12/28/16 on a ration of sorghum silage, wet distillers, 1 lb. of corn per 100 lbs. of body weight, ammoniated wheat straw, grinding quality alfalfa hay, and a vitamin mineral pack on a ration designed for 3.25 pounds of gain per day. ULTRASOUND All bulls selling were ultrasound-measured on 12/28/2016. The spring bulls were ratio d in as large of contemporary groups as possible for the purebred and balancer groups. However, bulls from time to time were not in a contemporary group and therefore don t have a ratio only an actual measurement. This data was collected by a CUP certified technician, and all data was submitted to the AGA. The fall bulls were too old for data submission, and all data is actual measurements collected by the same certified technician but was a chute side reading only. The fall purebred and Balancer group were ratio d against each other. This would include ET bulls and all bulls from all co-operators as they have all been handled the same for over 6 months. As with all raw data, comparisons must be made only within and not between contemporary groups. As an example, compare only spring Balancers to spring Balancers and spring purebreds to spring purebreds. You ll notice a large difference between the fall bulls data & the spring bull data even though many of the same sires are represented in both groups. This was due to the way the bulls were developed and the timing of the ultrasound measurements. Most of the fall bulls were over 365 days old and were adjusted back with decreased rib eye size considerably while the spring bulls were more typically measured at 11 months of age with a small adjustment up to 1 year of age. If you ve followed our program you ll realize in the past 5 to 7 years we have greatly increased our selection pressure on marbling both from an EPD sire selection stand point as well as actual measurements. You ll find many bulls with top 10 to 25% marbling genetics with the data to back it up without sacrificing our 30 plus year goal of WHERE CALVING EASE, PERFORMANCE AND EYE APPEAL COME TOGETHER. SALE COWS As in the past, our sale group of females includes all our sound six year olds and approximately 20 two year old heifers, most with calves at side. This year s sale group is really strong and includes more top-end cows and is from top to bottom our strongest, most consistent group to date. In my mind, there are at least six cows that deserve to be in donor programs and they have earned that right from their exceptional production. In addition, there are more cows that every ranch needs more of. Cows that get bred every year bring in a calf in the top half of their contemporary group and have high quality udders and the added look and eye appeal we demand. The two year old sale heifers are selected as a cross-section of our two year olds. Any cow that has at least two daughters in the herd that has an additional daughter is available as a sale heifer as well as any heifer that we have a large number of from their cow family and sire group. These two year olds are handled exactly like the heifers we retained and haven t received any additional supplementation to fatten them up for the sale. We feed no grain to our heifers after weaning only ammoniated wheat straw, sorghum silage, wet distillers, and grinding quality alfalfa hay. Three weeks prior to AI, as virgin heifers, they receive 2 lbs. of corn for fleshing them up for AI breeding, and this is the only grain they ever receive during their development. All females bred or exposed greater that 100 days have been pregnancy checked and expected to calve consistent with their respective breeding dates or pasture exposure listed in the catalog. The fall calving cows selling with calf at side have been pasture exposed since calving but sell only as exposed but not guaranteed safe in calf. INFORMATION ABOUT THE BULLS Our catalog contains a great deal of information, weights and measurements. To clarify the information, please remember that all Scrotal Measurements are actual measurements. Birth Weights are actual weights taken at birth. Weaning and yearling weights are adjusted to 205 days and 365 days respectively. CED = Epd for Calving Ease Direct BW = Epd for Birth Weight WW = Epd for Weaning Weight YW = Epd for Yearling Weight MK = Epd for Milk TM = Epd for Total Maternal ABOUT THE SALE CATTLE DEFINITIONS FOR DATA IN SALE BOOK BW = Actual Birth Weight WW = Adjusted Weaning Weight YW = Adjusted Yearling Weight REA = Ultrasound Rib Eye Area, adjusted or actual as noted IMF = Ultrasound Intramuscular Fat, adjusted or actual as noted FAT = Ultrasound Rib Fat, adjusted or actual as noted EPDs IN THE SALE BOOK CEM = Epd for Calving Ease Maternal YG = Epd for Yield Grade CW = EPD for Carcass Weight REA = EPD for Rib Eye Area MB = EPD for Marbling FPI = Feeder Profit Index Genomic EPDs The major benefits of GE EPDs are: risk reduction through improved accuracies, value of time to assess breeding stock at a younger age, increased rate of genetic progress, and getting data on economically important traits which are expensive or difficult to measure. Feeder Profit Index (FPI) An economic selection index designed to aid producers in selecting sires whose progeny will perform in the feedlot and are sold on grade and yield. Well ranking sires for FPI have higher marbling and carcass weight than their contemporaries. As a terminal index, little emphasis is put on maternal traits such as stayability and calving ease. page 3
