ta cattle 2016 annual bull sale

TA CATTLE

This year our offering of bulls includes Red Angus, Angus, Simmental, and Maine Anjou—so we’ve got something for everyone. We’ve added some new sires to our arsenal this year. We continue to calve and summer our cattle on our ranch near Bassett and develop them in our feedlots near Thurston. From the day they are born until sale day, these boys aren’t pampered. They are bred to meet the needs of any purebred breeder, commercial breeder, or cattle feeder. We enjoy being able to bring you realistic, functional bulls that look good in their work clothes. We strive to bring you genetics that will work well from start to finish.Because we are a family operation there is always “little people” helping with all day to day duties. With that being said, a good disposition is a big deal to us. So if a bull (or heifer) is outstanding, but has a bad attitude—to our feedlot it goes! We try to select bulls and heifers that we feel will uphold our standard for disposition. With the growing popularity of the breed, investing in quality genetics is still one of the best ways to increase profits for your operations. Better quality genetics still bring producers a premium no mater what the markets are doing. The Red Angus Association has developed programs to incentivize the marketing of Red Angus cattle, resulting in premiums for you as the seller.

• Dedicated feeder calf sales • Free marketing assistance from RAAA staff • Red Angus grids • Tyson’s Choice+ Premium Grid • Greater Omaha’s G.O. Red Grid

EPDs have been around for a long time, and some cattlemen rely heavily on these numbers. Today EPDs are more reliable than ever because of the use of 50K testing. What is 50K testing, you ask? Simply put, it is further genetic testing that pro-vides more informative data to increase the accuracy of EPDs. All of the bulls offered today have been 50K tested.

We’ve got a whale of a set of open commercial heifers for you this year! The heifers were put into lots by sire/frame score. With the variety of sires, we think you will be able to find a group you like. The Red Angus sire groups are Wallace, Redemption, Takeover A191, Roosevelt A5, and Maternal Made Z30. The black Simm/Angus group is sired by a son of Upgrade. An exciting addition to our heifer offering is a set of Charolais/Red Angus cross heifers sired by a Wrangler son.If you’re ever in the Thurston or Bassett areas be sure to give us a call—we would enjoy showing you around our operation or just talking cattle. We appreciate you taking the time to check out our offering of bulls and replacement heifers and look forward to earning your business in the years to come.

Sincerely,

Welcome to our 3rd annual bull sale!

SALE ORDER WILL BE AvAILABLE ON SALE DAY.

RETAINED INTEREST We are retaining ½ interest in all bulls in the sale. We are selling the remaining ½ interest, full possession, and full salvage value on these bulls. This option gives TA Cattle the option to collect, use, and market semen from the bull and does not restrict the purchaser from doing the same. This collection, unless agreed otherwise, would be done at the expense of TA Cattle, at the buy-er’s convenience. Also at the time of purchase, the highest bid-der on a retained interest bull may elect to purchase exclusive semen rights for 100% of the purchase price in addition to the purchased price on retained bulls. If a buyer elects to purchase exclusive semen rights, TA Cattle interest then becomes in herd use only, but TA Cattle retains all rights to use the bull within their herd.

FIRST BREEDING SEASON GUARANTEE All bulls selling for $3000 or more are guaranteed for the first breeding season. A breeding season is defined as the 90 day period following the first turnout of the bull. If a replacement bull is available, he will be provided or if the buyer prefers, credit toward one bull will be given in the following sale, less salvage value of the injured bull. All injured bulls must be diagnosed by a veterinarian. Please notify us as soon as possible should injury occur and prior to the injured bull being sold for salvage.

Notes

TA CATTLE

For more information on EPDs, visit redangus.org.

HB ...... HerdBuilder Index – Need bulls for developing a profi table cowherd and maximizing the value of marketed progeny? Select a bull with a high HB value.

GM ...... GridMaster Index – If you market all of your calf crop and want to increase the value of that calf crop, select a bull with a high GM value to maximize your profi t.

CED ..... Calving Ease Direct – Breeding Heifers? Select bulls with a high CED to increase the probability that the heifers will calve unassisted.

BW...... Birth Weight – Predicts differences in birth weight. BW is included in the CED EPD, so simplify your decisions by selecting bulls based on CED instead of BW.

WW ..... Weaning Weight and YW ....Y earling Weight – Predicts differences in weight at weaning and yearling. While selection based on these growth measures can increase your payweight, be cautious what the bull’s other EPDs are.

Milk .... Milk – Predicts differences in weaning weight of daughter’s progeny due to milk production.

ME ...... Maintenance Energy – Selecting bulls with a lower ME EPD will decrease the amount of feed his daughters will require to maintain body weight.

HPG..... Heifer Pregnancy – Retaining heifers? Select bulls with a high HPG to increase the percentage of exposures that result in a calving observation.

CEM .... Calving Ease Maternal – Another number to pay attention to if you are retaining heifers. Selecting bulls with a high CEM will increase the probability of those daughters calving unassisted.

STAY.... Stayability – The most important trait if your goal is developing cows that stay productive, thus increasing your profi tability. Bulls that have a high Stay EPD are expected to sire daughters that remain productive in the herd until at least 6 years of age.

MARB .. Marbling Score – Select bulls with high MARB EPD to increase the number of progeny that grade Choice or Prime.

YG ...... Yield Grade – Marketing calves on a grid? Placing selection pressure on YG EPD will decrease the number of YG discounts on grid-marketed progeny.

CW...... Carcasss Weight – Selecting bulls with a high CW EPD will increase the weight of the hanging carcass, which directly impacts revenue.

REA ..... Rib Eye Area – Need to add muscle? Select bulls with a high REA EPD to increase rib eye area, which favorably increases Yield Grade.

FAT ..... Backfat – Need to reduce waste in carcasses? Select bulls with a low FAT EPD to reduce backfat, which favorably increases Yield Grade.
