1 Simmental BEGGER S Angus Begger s Diamond V Ranch Wednesday, February 6, 2019 // 12:30 PM At the Ranch // Wibaux, MT Selling 150 Simmental, SimAngus & Angus Bulls Big Sky Genetic Source Bull Sale

2 Welcome Welcome to our 44th Annual Production Sale. Simmental BEGGER S Angus This past year certainly presented some trials, last winter is one we all want to forget. Spring was slow to come, but when it finally arrived it was cool and wet, made for tougher calving, although it also set our country up for a very nice hay and grain crop year. The grass was good to excellent, so many ranchers had a great year to get their grass back in shape after a year of drought. The upside to our year was that the cattle markets held and most sold their calves as good if not better then the past year. Our bull pen is loaded with a set of bulls as even as we have ever offered. They are a strong group, thick, easy keeping, and moderate in size. We have a few new sire groups that really impress us. Our motto the Cowman Comes First is very evident in these bulls. Uniformity in kind and type is outstanding, cows with excellent udders and the ability to withstand extremes in weather are represented throughout the whole offering. Each and every bull selling has been put through our strict high standards. We believe that everyone of them will add value to their new owners. This past year we have spent over $30,000 DNA testing our entire cow herd to better their EPD accuracies and parentage, verify every cow. We also identified the cows for homozygous black. This was a big project that took a lot of time and money to accomplish. We feel this shows our commitment to offer seedstock that will better fit all segments of our industry. Bill & Darlene We did not creep any of the bulls, and we have set them up on a low mega cal, high roughage diet to condition them into sound breeding bulls. We worked with Hubbard Feeds and continually monitored feed quality and kept the gains on the bulls at a level that developed them into sound breeding bulls that should keep on growing, and not fall apart when in use. Our cow herd is managed like most commercial cowman run theirs, they are run out and grazed with no extra feed for as long as the grass holds out. As always, we will keep the bulls free of charge and give them a breeding soundness exam around the first of April. We will deliver them to you at no charge on bulls that sell for $3,500 or more, in most cases on all bulls within a reasonable distance and selling price. Our guarantee is a 100% purchase price on any bull that has a problem, except for negligence or death from accidental or nature caused. If your bull develops a problem, we want to know, and we will make it right. John, Alicia, Charlotte, Harrison & Magdalene We welcome your ranch visits anytime you are in the area, stop in we will be happy to show you around. We want you to know that we appreciate your business and are humbled to have you as our customers and friends, and are here to serve your needs. If you have any questions, feel free to call, we will try to answer them to the best of our ability. On sale day come hungry, we will have a free lunch that will stick to your ribs. Thanks so much.

4 What can you expect out of Begger s Diamond V Ranch Genetics Our goal is to offer the best when it comes to total profitability. When we select our genetics, we consider all the avenues in the beef business. First of all we look at what will keep you the cow-calf man profitable. Things such as calving ease, fleshing ability, udder quality, disposition, and phenotype, along with mature cow size, and their ability to raise a calf that is worth more at sale time, and is efficient. Producing cattle that the feeders and packers desire. How do we select our genetics? We use EPD s, dollar based Indexes such as API and TI and eye appeal, along with the ability for an animal to be productive, wean a satisfactory calf, breed back on time, and have the ability to use the feed source that our environment provides. We try to run our cows in the same way that most commercial outfits run their cattle and the cows are still in excellent condition. We believe that the API is a valuable tool to consider, but feel that it is simply a guideline, and like all EPD s and dollar indexes, should be used as a way to split the difference between a choice of 2 animals that appear to be alike. It is just one equation that needs to be considered along with an animal s performance, eye appeal, and ability to survive in its environment. When you purchase your seedstock, take the time to look at your suppliers cow herd, what do they look like, are they functional, what is their udder quality like, what is their frame size, and do they calve easy, stay in shape, and do they produce a high percentage of their body wt. We consider it all and believe we offer a good solution and end point. Come take a look, we will have the majority of our cows available to observe, so you can see for yourself what you can expect your cowherd to look like if you use Begger s Diamond V Ranch genetics. Photos of the bull offering 2018 was a busy year, we were shorthanded, so summer and fall went by and we didn t get any cow/calf pictures. The pictures we took were taken by us, no fluff, no puff, in their everyday clothes, but most of all, no custom photographer that alters the pictures. There is so much of that being done today, that when you get to the sale, the pictures don t match the cattle. We hope that you recognize us to be your seedstock supplier, that presents the cattle as they are with no hidden secrets. The bulls will be videoed and online by mid January. It will show the bulls again with no extra fitting, just out of the pen in their everyday clothes. 2 Watch online or bid by phone!

He came off the cow at a whopping 870 pounds in September, the heaviest actual weaning weight. His young 4-year-old dam certainly did her part. He is sired by one of our past sale bulls, as 2 Capitalist sons and a Top 10 son got in with the cows. We did not blood type to see which one sired him, but by his body style, I believe he is by the Top 10 bull. No matter what, he is a rock-solid bull that will sire a little extra frame and length. His API and TI indexes are low because of his sire uncertainty, so I see no accuracy in them, because they gave him a zero on the sire side. What I do know, he is one of the top picks in over 160 bull calves in his contemporary group. If you like performance cattle with eye appeal, here he is. 3 3

21 the Fall Bulls This set of fall bulls were sorted hard to insure soundness, fleshing ability, and structure, they were never crept fed. They ate what the cows ate all winter long. They did better than we could have ever expected, as their weaning weights are exceptional. We weighed this set of bulls on Feb, 20th, and this was a little younger than normal, usually late March or early April. This did enhance their 205 wts quite a bit. We decided to wean them early because of the bitter cold hard winter. We feel that their 205 wts are higher than if they were weaned days later. What we ve notice year in and year out, the younger they are, the better their 205 wts seem to be. Don t dwell on the big wts, but notice how they indexed among their contemporaries, I feel that would be accurate. With all being said, they are still high performing bulls that will definitely sire calves that are excellent performance cattle. Fall Simmental Bulls The bulls were summered on grass with lick tubs we did not push them at all. We brought them back to the corrals mid October to get them conditioned for the sale. We elected not to push the bulls and run an ADG test, instead we fed them a low mega cal growing diet to enhance their longevity. We weighed them on December 22, and included their actual wt in the catalog. These bulls are a very strong athletic group that should be ready for heavy service. As you look through these fall bulls, they will be penned in 4 groups. The first pen will be the larger framed bulls, they will also be the heaviest actual wt, they will sire a little more frame with very good performance. The next pen is a very stout, big middled set of bulls that will sire more moderate framed cattle, will add volume, and fleshing ability. Pens 3 & 4, will likewise be very similar, all 4 pens are excellent performance bulls that will sire cattle that weigh up at weaning.

Suggested Guidelines for using Yearling Bulls We are firm believers in the use of yearling bulls and feel it is one of the best years of their lives. It is a time when they are easy to manage and their only concern is breeding cows. We have found that yearling bulls that are managed carefully during the second year of their lives, not only do well, but they will perform better, over time. Below are some suggested guidelines for the care of yearling bulls. Upon delivery to your ranch, keep yearling bulls separate from older bulls and feed them a maintenance ration of 5-8 pounds per head of grain and free choice hay. Reduce the amount of grain fed gradually, so that bulls are on straight hay or grass 2-4 weeks prior to the breeding season. Where possible, try to limit the bulls to days of pasture service the first year. At this time or as soon as possible, remove the bulls and put them in separate pastures with plenty of good quality grass. It is best to feed yearling bulls separate from older bulls until after their second breeding season. This allows them to achieve the growth and strength to compete with older bulls for feed and space. You will see the benefit of a little added cost and care of feeding a yearling bull by probably two or three more years of service from a well managed and healthy bull. 25

He was the highest ADG Angus bulls in the entire group. Out of the $350,000 HA Cowboy Up, that was the sale highlight of Hinmans and of the Nation. He is out of a cow family that excels in performance, and udder quality. I feel he is heifer safe for the cowman that watches his heifers, but still demands more than heifer bull performance. He should sire excellent daughters as well. 144 Black Homo Polled Purebred Angus AAA# Tattoo: 803F BD: 2/23/18 Act. BW: 80 lbs. Adj. WW: 673 lbs. Ratio: 97 Adj YW: 1244 lbs. ADG: 3.57 lbs.
