3 WELCOME Welcome cattlemen and cattlewomen, Whether you are a long time customer or a new attendee, we welcome you and thank you for your interest in our breeding program has been a challenging weather year, starting off with extreme snow and cold last winter, followed by drought, excessive heat and more recently, extreme cold again. Through it all, our cows weaned off the heaviest calves ever and we are excited to present them for your appraisal. For 35 years we have continually balanced trait selected with a special emphasis on eye appeal, performance, maternal traits and docility. We have spent years selecting AI sires, purchasing top quality herdsires, doing embryo transfer to multiply our best genetics, and visually appraising and culling the herd to bring you the best genetics possible. We believe the animals offered this year can satisfy our commercial and purebred customers alike. Feel free to contact us or visit our website, for more information on the cattle. We would love to help you with your selections and look forward to seeing you on sale day.

4 SALE INFORMATION SALE DAY REPRESENTATIVES: Klint Sickler American Gelbvieh Association Board Doug Hille ND Gelbvieh Association Board Scott Ressler North Dakota Stockmen s Association Angela Vesco American Gelbvieh Association DEVELOPING THE CATTLE: Calves are raised on grass and their mother s milk only. We do not creep feed our calves as we feel that we can better identify our highly maternal lines, and we feel the consistency and performance of the calves produced by our fi rst calf heifers are proving this theory. We continue to feed a TMR ration of ground corn, silage, hay, and distillers grain after weaning. We aim for a moderate gain of 3.25 to 3.5 pounds per day to maintain longevity in the bulls while allowing the top calves to separate themselves from the rest of the pen. GENOMICS AND TESTING: All bulls have had an LD genomic test, are sire verifi ed and have genomic-enhanced EPDs. All eligible bulls have been tested for the homozygous black trait and approximately 1/3 of the bulls have been tested for the homozygous polled trait. All females have been ultrasound checked by the Mandan Veterinary Clinic and calves of known sex are identifi ed in the footnotes. DAMS OF MERIT AND DISTINCTION: Watch for Dams of Merit and Distinction in the footnotes. These are cows that consistently produce above average calves on a 365 day interval. Fewer than 5% of Gelbvieh cows achieve Dam of Merit status and fewer than 1% achieve Dam of Distinction status. Our herd ranks second in the nation for breeding Dams of Merit and Distinction. INSURANCE: Klint Sickler will be available on sale day for you to insure your purchases if you desire. GUARANTEES: As always we guarantee sight unseen purchases for those unable to attend the sale. All bulls are guaranteed breeders for the fi rst breeding season. In the event of injury or death in a 90-day breeding season, notify Gustin s Diamond D immediately. We will replace the bull with one of similar value or allow a credit of the value of the bull less salvage value in the next sale. TERMS OF SALE: All animals sell according to the recommended terms of the AGA.

5 SALE INFORMATION The American Gelbvieh Association s Feeder Finder service assists producers in marketing load lots of Gelbvieh and Balancer -infl uenced feeder cattle. Whether selling private treaty or via auction, producers with load lots of feeder cattle are encouraged to fill out the free Feeder Finder form. These cattle are then listed on the AGA website and presented to feedyards across the country. Contact Angela Vesco at to list your cattle on Feeder Finder. As a valued customer of Gelbvieh infl uenced calves, you are eligible to list your calves on the American Gelbvieh Association s Feeder Finder. Simply list your calves with a brief description of your cattle and the listing will be sent to over 200 feedlots across the United States. All listings must be in load lots, so if you don t have enough calves to fi ll a semi load, consider teaming up with a neighbor who has Gelbvieh-infl uenced calves. Just another way the AGA is helping to add value to your program. 3

6 SALE INFORMATION Gelbvieh x Angus or Red Angus STEVE AND ADAM SINDT own and operate R&J Farms where they run a commercial cow-calf herd in south-central Nebraska, and feed out their home-raised calves. They started buying Gelbvieh and Balancer bulls five years ago to improve the performance of their calves out of their British-based cowherd. The Gelbvieh and Balancer bulls have improved the consistency and uniformity of our calves. We like the growth, performance and disposition of the Balancer calves. We have been selling our harvest-ready cattle on a live basis, but in April 2017 we sold some of our home-raised cattle on a grid, and were pleased with the premiums. The cattle were months old at harvest and they graded 92.5% Choice and Prime and 90% were Yield Grade 1, 2, and 3. - Adam Sindt, R&J Farms PROVIDING VALUE ON THE RAIL Carcass data from 302 head of 2016-born Balancer steer and heifer calves fed in Amherst, Nebraska, and harvested at Tyson Fresh Meats in Lexington, Nebraska, prove Balancer cattle are the smart choice for feedyard profitability. YIELD GRADE 93% YIELD GRADE 1,2,3 QUALITY GRADE 98% CHOICE AND PRIME ADDING THE POUNDS Steers in the 2017 AGA Scale and Rail Contest had an average daily gain of 4 lbs. per day in the feedyard. MAKING THE GRADE Many feeders have reported Balancer-sired cattle that grade 90% Choice or better. DELIVERING THE VALUE Gelbvieh rank #1 for percent retail product according to U.S. Meat Animal Research Center progress report #22. These Balancers are one of the best 4kept secrets in the cattle industry. -Adam Sindt

His dam has a weaning weight ratio of 107 on three calves. Listed below are the defi nitions of American Gelbvieh Association EPDs and the units in which they are published. The EPDs with an asterisk (*) next to the name are available to members only. MATERNAL TRAITS Calving ease direct (CE): Percent of unassisted births of a bull s calves when he is used on heifers. A higher number is favorable, meaning better calving ease. This EPD can be vital to a rancher looking to decrease the amount of calves pulled in his herd. Milk (Milk): The genetic ability of a sire s daughters to produce milk expressed in pounds of weaning weight. Calving ease maternal (CEM): Represented as percent of unassisted births in a sire s fi rst-calving daughters. A higher number represents more favorable calving ease. This EPD is important to a rancher s bottom line because it predicts which animals produce daughters with a genetic pre-disposition to calve unassisted as heifers. GROWTH TRAITS Birth weight (BW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for birth weight of the calf. Weaning weight (WW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 205 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning. Yearling weight (YW): Predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to a standard 365 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling. CARCASS TRAITS Yield grade (YG): Differences in yield grade score, which is a predictor of percent retail product. Smaller values suggest that progeny will have a better lean to fat ratio. EPD DEFINITIONS Carcass weight (CW): Differences in pounds of hot carcass weight, adjusted to an industry standard age endpoint. Ribeye area (REA): Differences in ribeye area in inches between the 12th and 13th rib. Greater ribeye areas are preferable. Marbling (MB): Predicts the differences in the degree of marbling within the ribeye as expressed in marbling score units. Greater marbling numbers are preferable and are an indicator of higher carcass quality grades. Fat (FT): Differences for fat thickness, in inches, for a carcass over the 12th rib, smaller numbers of fat thickness are preferable as excess fat can be detrimental to yield grade. WHAT IS AN INDEX? Indexes are tools that allow you to select for several EPDs at once, making selections more effi cient than selecting on one trait at a time. Indexes weigh traits based on their importance to a producer s bottom line by using a trait s economic and genetic value. Indexes are a good way to put selection emphasis on traits that are economically relevant. Total maternal (TM): An index that combines growth and milk information as a prediction of the weaning weight performance of calves from a sire s daughters. As an index, this value is not reported with an accompanying accuracy. A greater TM value means a mother that returns comparatively higher weaning weights on her calves. TM Index = MK EPD + ½ WW EPD. Feeder profi t 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. 23
