2 Welcome to our 14th Annual Sale! WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU APRIL 14TH! Welcome to Brant Farms Genetic Balance Sale as we celebrate our 14th annual production sale on Saturday, April 14th. Sounds like a golden opportunity to come early and enjoy a cup of coffee and something sweet. This will provide you with ample time to view the cattle and hunt one of us down if you have any questions. Join us for a hearty lunch beginning at 11:00 with the sale starting noon sharp. Calving season is always an exciting time. It can have its ups and downs, but this year everything came together, and the calf crop is a good one. Each time one of those special calves hits the ground running, it reminds us why we put ourselves through all those long hours and sleepless nights. It is our objective to offer a group of bulls that will work for you. We believe that we have an outstanding set of prospective herd sires that offer calving ease, growth, carcass values and milk. They were weaned on a high roughage diet and developed for the long haul. Whether you are looking to improve your commercial or purebred herd, we have a bull that will fit your program. All of the bulls have been semen tested and ultra sounded. The majority of the females are first calf heifers doing a great job raising their winter born calves of which many will be on the plus side of 200 lbs by sale day. Black or red, this selection of Purebred and Sim-Angus cows represents many top AI sires in the industry. Check out the power exhibited by the open heifers. Interested buyers are urged to view the sale cattle on Friday or any time prior to Wednesday of sale week. Visitors are always welcome. Please contact John Boy, Julie, myself, or the staff of Eberspacher Enterprises if you have any questions regarding the cattle offered for sale. As always, if you need to leave your cattle for a few days, don t hesitate to ask we are more than willing to work with you. Thank you for being a part of our sale; whether you are reading our catalog from afar or joining us on sale day, we value your interest and confidence in our program. A big THANKS goes out to the crew at Brant Farms for all of the hard work that goes into clipping, photographing and cataloging this great sale. If I didn t have John Boy and Julie leading the charge, it would be an uphill battle to put on this event. Scotty and Ben are the two hands that keep the cattle in groceries. From harvesting crops to feeding; it s a never ending task and appreciated. A special thank you to my wife, children and grandkids for putting up with me while growing this farm. I hope there is a young farmer in the mix. Sincerely, Ron Brant VIEW/BID LIVE ON THE INTERNET! Welcome Friends and Fellow Cattlemen: It s hard to believe, but spring is here once again; and along with spring comes many important decisions. One huge decision that will impact your bottom line in years to come is your herd bull. Put a quality bull to work in your pasture. Whether you are looking to add pounds or retain replacement females, we have a bull that will work for you. The bull pen is as deep as it has ever been, and we are willing to assist you in making a selection that best suits your breeding program. The pairs, breds and opens will not disappoint. These females are ready to go to work for their new owners and be profitable cows for years to come. As you will see in our footnotes, we refer to the EPD s the animals rank high in. Our philosophy is Expected Progeny Differences numbers are a selection tool; but it is equally important to look at the animals in person. This year s offering has a vast selection of calving ease sires while maintaining plenty of growth to wean off a heavy set of calves. We believe in performance orientated cattle that are eye appealing. Thank you to all past and present customers for your business and friendship. A huge thank you to Scotty and Ben who help make the day to day tasks less daunting. Thanks to Steve, Matt, Parker, Chris, John and my kids for stepping up whenever we need an extra hand. The guys at the shop are a big plus when it comes to keeping things running; thank you Ted and Dave. Thanks Julie for covering all the bases; you are a home run in my book. Last but not least, thank you Ron and Vicki for the opportunity to manage this great set of cattle. I would be lying if I didn t say I couldn t keep it all together without the love and support of my awesome wife and kids. I am truly blessed. Please feel free to contact me with any questions; I will be happy to assist you in any way I can. Best regards, John Boy Friends, Family and Fellow Cattle people: In anticipation of a great day, Good morning and welcome! It is an honor to be invited to consign my cattle for your consideration along side the Brant cattle. I have poured my heart and soul into this program along with Ron and John Boy. I am very proud of this fine group of cattle selling today. There are many round table discussions involved in our breeding program here. What does the market want? Pounds. What are breeders looking for? Calving ease and Feed efficiency. What is the perfect combination? Change is inevitable, we need to do our homework and make sure we end up where we want to be. At the end of the day, family is what matters most; through joy and sorrow, they are who we share our lives with. I am blessed to have family that feel like friends and friends that feel like family. Thank you so much for your support of our program. Sincerely, Julie WELCOME TO OUR 14TH ANNUAL SALE

Eastwood is the most complete bull we have ever raised. Resulting from embryos purchased from Ryan Hecksel, his dam, a first calf heifer did an outstanding job. He started out at 73 pounds and weaned off over 800. E9SC combines so many great attributes; he is good footed, calving ease with depth of rib, and a great hair coat. His daughters will be very maternal yet he possessed plenty of power. If Eastwood is in the West Wing of your pasture, your future cowherd could look better than the First Lady.
