The American Gelbvieh Association (AGA) is less than one month past one of the most ardent national conventions in the history of the association. The timing of that enthusiasm is perfect to carry momentum into 2018. Cattle breeders from all over the world will have the opportunity to share in the AGA excitement at the National Western Stock Show (NWSS), which serves as the first big event of each calendar year. The momentum that the AGA and our membership is enjoying over the last three years, comes in the form of increased cowherd inventory, increased registrations and more bulls transferred to Gelbvieh and Balancer bull buyers from around the country. The building of Gelbvieh-influenced mass has resulted in a substantial increase in the AGA membership of nearly 10% since last year. I encourage all Gelbvieh and Balancer breeders and customers to join in the excitement that is taking place at the AGA. The association is preparing for another year of substantial growth and we hope you will all come and be a part of it, beginning at the 2018 National Western Stock Show. The National Gelbvieh and Balancer Sale is the first don t miss event of 2018. On behalf of the AGA national office and the AGA Board of Directors, we invite you to join us at the National Gelbvieh and Balancer Sale and set the tone for a new year and the 2018 spring sale season. I hope to see you all in Denver at the 2018 NWSS and National Gelbvieh and Balancer Sale. DNA TESTING All cattle selling have been DNA parent verified and tested free of genetic defects.

She is out of our Toasty family who produced SLC Road Trip 103C, who was Senior Champion last year in Denver and Grand Champion last year at Farmfair. 10C is close to ideal in our opinion. She is very angular, femine fronted and big bodied combined with a high quality phenotype. She has plenty of milk, with a near perfect teat and udder structure. She produced SLC Viper 7E (Lot 5) who was our heaviest bull calf at weaning, not bad for her first one. 10C was Reserve Champion Heifer Calf at the National Show in 2015, won her division last year in Denver and was 2017 Reserve Canadian National Champion Female at Farmfair.

This will be one of the few opportunities to own a Bolton Pay Day BOLTON PAY DAY 45C H Service sire to Lot 13 calf in 2018. The best word to describe 621D is Complete. When you evaluate her phenotypically she is flexible and sound structured, has plenty of rib and capacity and balances up relatively well. Most breeders can appreciate the fact she ranks in the top 2% of the population for Feeder Profit Index, and in the top 10% for $Cow and 4% for stayability. In a breed that has been focusing on maternal strengths while improving terminal traits, she checks a lot of the correct boxes. If you pair her functional phenotype and balanced EPD profile you start to see a lot of mating flexibility whether you want to go with a purebred or balancer mating. Her dam, Darci 301A, sired by Lazy TV Sam, was an up-and-coming donor prospect until her untimely death while nursing 621D.

Embryo Offering 8 embryos are on hand from each mating, and the buyer may mix and match to suit the buyer s needs for up to a total of eight embryos. Selling a total of eight conventional grade #1 and #2 embryos with a guarantee of four pregnancies. The embryos must be implanted by a certified embryologist. If less than four pregnancies are achieved, the guarantee is one replacement embryo per pregnancy that does not take. When the embryo is replaced, the guarantee is fulfilled. The replacement embryo, if necessary, will be from the current 294Z8 embryo bank and is not necessarily from the embryos offered. All embryos are produced and are in storage Sun Valley Embryo Center in Salina, Kansas. The buyer is responsible for embryo shipping and implantation costs. Pregnant recipients, if the buyer chooses, are available for purchase at Sun Valley at the current rate of $2,400 for a 90 day pregnancy. Recips must be picked within 10 days of determination or normal housing, and yardage charges are incurred to the buyer. POST ROCK WILMA 294Z8 ET The dam of these embryos, Meredith s cow, as she s known at Post Rock, was the 2013 Reserve Champion Female in the Denver Junior Show at her first show. She later won four of the other five shows she was exhibited at, including the AGJA Western Regional. What an awesome production and breeding tool she has become, producing back-to-back Supreme Champion Bred-and-Owned Females at the two most recent Junior Nationals. This may be the first time it has happened in our breed. At the same time, she was filling our pastures with daughters so good that we couldn t decide which one got shown and which one stayed home.pictured are three daughters, all of which have competed at a high level, all sired by different sires. I have little doubt any of the three matings offered could produce a future champion or breed-impacting genetic masterpiece. Post Rock Wilma 340B8 was the first natural calf of Wilma 294Z8. She won every show Meredith showed her at in the spring of 2016. Proof there s power in the blood. Her first son will be among the featured bulls in our 2018 bull sale. Post Rock Wilma 334D8 is an ET daughter of 294Z8 sired by Post Rock PowerBuilt. To date, she has only been shown twice, winning Reserve Champion at 7 months of age and Supreme Champion Bred-and-Owned Female in the 2017 AGJA Junior Nationals. Post Rock Wilma 103D8 is also an ET daughter of 294Z8. She is sired by the futurity champion, Gravity. She won the highly competitive Balancer spring heifer calf division in the 2017 Denver Junior Show at her first time out. 334D8 Wilma 294Z8 daughter 103D8 Wilma 294Z8 daughter NATIONAL GELBVIEH & BALANCER SALE 340B8 Wilma 294Z8 daughter POST ROCK WILMA 294Z8 Dam of Lot 26A, 26B & 26C embryos 28 26A BASIN PAYWEIGHT 006S BASIN PAYWEIGHT 1682 21AR O LASS 7017 CTR GOOD NIGHT 880U POST ROCK WILMA 294Z8 ET DCSF POST ROCK WILMA 261P1 ET 26B PAYWEIGHT x 294Z8 EMBRYOS POWER BUILT x 294Z8 EMBRYOS JRI TOP PRODUCER 282Z3 POST ROCK POWER BUILT 37B8 DCSF POST ROCK WILMA 298Z8 ET CTR GOOD NIGHT 880U POST ROCK WILMA 294Z8 ET DCSF POST ROCK WILMA 261P1 ET BALANCER 38% H DBL BLACK H DBL POLLED VERMILION PAYWEIGHT J847 BASIN LUCY 3824 HARB PENDLETON 765 J H 21AR O LASS F24A CTR GOOD NIGHT 4743P CTR SWEET ELE 4150P BTI GRANITE 2135M DCSF POST ROCK WILMA 147H ET 12-0.3 83 139 29 70 20 2-0.15 53 0.52 0.05 92.76 offered by: POST ROCK CATTLE COMPANY, KS These progeny will result in homozygous black, homozygous polled 3/8 progeny.

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 12-14 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 kept secrets in the cattle industry. -Adam Sindt 31
