4 From The Sale Committee W e want to welcome you to the Genetic Edge XIII Sale and especially thank our past customers and our members. Our 18th Genetic Edge sale will be offering both Red and Black Brangus. In this year s sale you have the opportunity to buy some of the best genetics in Brangus from these outstanding Breeders. Many of our consignors have put some of their best genetics in this year s offering to show the high quality of cattle they are raising in their program. Many of these cattle come to you right from the breeders show string and as you well know they only put their best in the show string. One of the Special Offerings in the Genetic Edge Sale is we always have the Grand Champion and Reserve Grand Champion Bull and Female from the Houston Livestock Show offered as Lot 1 in the Sale. Lot 1, Own a Champion, is left up to the owner of the champion, but in the past some have sold an interest in the bulls, either a semen interest or breeding share, and on the female side a flush or embryo interest in the champion females. We believe this gives the serious breeder the opportunity to own some of the best genetics in Red Brangus and Black Brangus. Breeders trying to improve your herd, or build a herd should look closely at Lot 1. Lot 1 also gives our foreign customers an opportunity to buy a semen interest in the Champions, or be able to possibly buy an embryo interest or flush. The success of our Breeders has always been one of our goals. Our Sale Committee is very excited this year to bring you an outstanding offering. We have had several lots from past sales go on to win Grand and Reserve Champions and even win the prestigious Show Heifer of the Year award. Plan to be at the Genetic Edge Sale and take full advantage of this opportunity to build a herd from the selection of these top genetics. We will also be televising our entire sale on DVAuction so breeders from around the world can participate if they are unable to attend. Go to to create an account and request a buyer s number. If you want to register for DVAuction, make sure to go online a couple days before the sale. With these cattle we are confident you can improve your herd and move your program forward. We look forward to seeing you at the sale and if we can answer any questions, please call. Our Sale Committee is comprised of Don Cox, Nancy Buffaloe, Rhumina Stofa, John Liechty and Craig Stovall. 3

5 Lot 1 Own A Champion! This is your opportunity to propel your breeding program and ranch to the top of the breed. I once heard one of the most successful cattle breeders say, If I didn t raise the Champion, I would buy it. This breeder never had any problem staying at the top of the breed or selling his animals for much more than the other breeders. You cannot only use the genetics to put your program at the top, but as a new owner of a champion you can use it to help you market your ranch and breeding program. Don t pass up the opportunity to OWN A CHAMPION in the 2013 Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo.

These heifers have everything you could ever want in a top female, possessing the best genetics Red Brangus has to offer. 101Z, sired by Legacy, is a full sister to BKC Superman 101U. 204Z is sired by Superman and out of one of our top donors 204R3. 204R3 is one of the few Red Brangus Summit Cows in the breed and is a maternal sister to OB Ranches Red Bull. Both 101Z and 204Z have full sisters that were Show Champions and both have full brothers that are herd sires. Genetics that consistently produce elite females and herd sires are not easy to come by. I don't think I need to list all the qualities of these heifers because I think they speak for themselves, the only problem is picking one! Selling Buyers Choice from these two females. Buyer will get full (100%) possession and one-half (50%) embryo interest. BKC Ranch will retain one-half (50%) embryo interest. BKC Miss Legacy 101Z Lot 3A BKC Superwoman 204Z Lot 3B 5

We have seen what her dam and sire can produce so don t miss this opportunity to own a sound, stylish heifer. Brangus Gold Replacement Females Because the commercial Brangus female should be noted throughout the US beef industry as having excellent maternal characteristics, distinguishing females sired by IBBA bulls from other 'Brangus-type' females and developing marketing and promotional support for producers using IBBA bulls to produce replacement females should be a priority of the IBBA. The IBBA commercial female program is designed to: Add value to commercial replacement females sired by IBBA bulls through organized marketing opportunities for those females with the ultimate goal of increasing the demand for the IBBA bulls needed to produce those females. To fully realize this goal, the program must have high credibility through verification of all claims and be reasonably simple for potential participants and potential female buyers to fully understand. 7 CX Ms Black Diamond 74/Z Lot 6 OPEN HEIFER FROM COX EXCALIBUR BRANGUS CX MS PROMISE KEEPER 504/Z RR Born: 5/15/12 PHN: 504/Z Gen: 3 Scurs: P CX PROMISE 37/K D-CX HEAVENLY 55/5 CX PROMISE KEEPER 84/R RR MISS EXCALIBUR 537/1 RR MS HS 1984/K MR H.S.

The OptimaxX program is a direct result of the renewed commitment on the part of Brangus breeders to service the commercial beef industry with value adding products. OptimaxX calves will not only be source and age verified, but also Brangus verified. Verifying the Brangus content of the calves adds another layer of valuable information for the buyer over a generic source and age verification program. The buyers of calves with the bright yellow OptimaxX tag will know exactly what they are negotiating for. Progeny of Brangus, Red Brangus Ultrablack, Ultrared and Certified animals that are properly recorded with IBBA are eligible for the OptimaxX program. The OptimaxX tag will provide access to current marketing avenues for age and source verified calves, as well as, future market access programs developed specifically for Brangus-influenced calves. The only direct cost to a commercial producer to access the program and these marketing opportunities will be the cost of the OptimaxX tag, $1.25 for the visual tag and $3.25 for a paired visual and electronic tag. Data management services required to comply with USDA requirements will be provided by the IBBA at no charge to the producer. The IBBA will also maintain pertinent marketing information (backgrounding, preconditioning, etc.) on OptimaxX calves in an internet database for easy access by potential buyers. 16
