OFFERED BY: WOLF GELBVIEH

On December 5, 2025, Travis Wolf gave himself an early birthday present with the purchase of KCF Bennet Tredegar M456, who was the second highest selling overall and high selling Gelbvieh/Balancer bull in the Knoll Crest Farms Total Performance Bull Sale. Travis is willing to share his present with the Gelbvieh breed by offering buyer’s choice possession of this exciting young homozygous black, homozygous polled purebred Gelbvieh bull that has gained a ton of interest and traction prior to and since the sale.

He ranks in the top 1% for heifer pregnancy, marbling, FPI and TPI while ranking in the top 2% for ribeye area, top 5% for carcass weight, the top 15% for yield grade and 10 other EPDs in the top 50% or higher.

Here’s a standout herd sire prospect you don’t want to overlook. This higher-percentage Balancer bull offers exceptional indexing, genuine calving-ease, and comes with a low birth weight—impressive on any day, but even more so considering he is out of a first-calf heifer. His dam, MDR Friday 201K, was the 2024 OYE Champion Owned and Bred-and-Owned Female, and a division winner at the 2023 Cattlemen’s Congress as a calf for Kyson Theil. Her sire, First Round Pick, was a past Congress Champion, and her dam, Friday, earned Champion Balancer honors at multiple national shows. This bull’s pedigree is stacked top to bottom with champions, proven producers, and cattle that have worked both in the ring and in real-world production. But make no mistake—he isn’t just riding on pedigree. This bull is an absolute stud in his own right. Whether your goal is to make elite sons or front-pasture daughters, he has the build and genetic backing to do both. He’s massive-ribbed, big-centered, squarebuilt, and stands on incredible toes. The best part? He still has plenty of room to grow and mature into a true herd bull. Selling 2/3 semen and full possession. Buyer has the option to completely buy T/R Cattle Co. out of 1/3 semen interest for full rights. Stalled at T/R Cattle Stalls in the Hereford Barn under barn door 4B.

CLGR RWCC Next Chapter 32N is a standout herd-sire prospect that represents both our family’s western Kansas roots and the forward vision of our current program. He brings together the genetics that have shaped our operation, making him a fitting “next chapter” for us and for the breed. Sired by the highly promising DBRG Kickstart 2202K, whose first calf crop includes the 2025 People’s Choice Gelbvieh Bull Futurity Champion, Next Chapter carries a pedigree built for relevance. His dam is a beautifully made first-calf heifer backed by GRU Grand Plan 744G, a bull that our family raised and one that continues to influence top programs nationwide. The Kickstart x Grand Plan combination blends two genetic lines that define where we’ve been and where we’re going. Next Chapter 32N matches that pedigree with an elite phenotype. He’s a long bodied bull with impressive growth and immediately hits you with a striking look. While still offering plenty of muscle and body, we think his structure and flexibility as he hits the surface uniquely sets him apart as a high percentage Gelbvieh bull. He’s Homozygous Black and Homozygous Polled while ranking in the top 10% of the breed for WW, YW and top 35% for FPI. More than just another bull, Next Chapter is a meaningful step forward for our program, carrying the potential to impact the breed for years to come. Selling full possession sells and 50% semen interest.

Lux is the kind of Balancer herd sire that makes people stop in the alley and ask, “Who’s that one?” He’s extra long-bodied, level as a board over his top, and carries width and muscle from nose to tail. Added bone, depth of rib, and a big, correct foot give him the kind of structural integrity and longevity both commercial and seedstock operations expect in a front-pasture bull. He’s the rare combination of

JGPG VER MISS JULIA 519B 001G • Maternal sister of Lot 9

12

power and softness, with all the pieces blending together in a true herd-bull package. On paper, Lux gets even more interesting. He is Homozygous Black and Homozygous Polled—uniform calves, no surprises. His tenderness score of 9 out of 10 brings real carcass value to the table, making him a smart choice for programs chasing grid premiums or value-added marketing opportunities. He offers the balance of phenotype and carcass quality that today’s beef industry actually pays for. Lux is backed by a donor that earns her keep. His dam is a tremendous, highly productive donor for JGP Gelbvieh and VF Livestock, a female that consistently transmits power, structure, and real-world maternal. Stacked behind her is the storied “Miss Julia” cow family—one of the most time-tested, no-miss lines in the breed, responsible for numerous top sons, elite females and sale features. When you study Lux, you can see the maternal strength written all over him. For extra credibility, Lux is a full brother to JGPG Pit Boss 205K ET, the 2024 Reserve National Champion Balancer Bull. The “Pit Boss” sire group has been extremely well received, with calves that have eye appeal, shape, structure and performance—and Lux carries that same winning look. Based on what we’ve seen from his brother’s progeny, we expect Lux to breed true, stamping calves with muscle, length, and functional design that keeps customers coming back year after year. He’s the kind of bull that can quietly (and profitably) move a program forward—whether your goal is building front-row replacement females or selling high-value feeder calves. Selling full possession and 50% semen interest.

This is an incredible opportunity to own a truly special 78% Gelbvieh female. Her dam was nothing short of dominant in the show ring—2022 NAILE Grand Champion Balancer Female Open Show, 2022 NAILE Reserve Grand Champion Junior Show, and the 2022 NILE Champion Balancer Female. In short, her mother was an elite individual, and this young female is already showing the same qualities that will allow her to follow right in those footsteps. She hasn’t been on feed long and still has a tremendous amount of maturity ahead of her, but even in a greener stage she is eye catching. She is an extremely fresh bred heifer with the intangibles and build to develop into a future donor. This hightyping, beautifully made red female is bold in her rib cage and stands on a massive, correct set of feet and legs. The foundation is set—and time is absolutely her friend. She is bred to T/R Franchise E123, a calving-ease First Class son backed by a Brilliance daughter from PVF—an ideal mating for producing functional, attractive, and high-quality progeny. Opportunities to acquire females with this level of quality, pedigree power and long-term potential don’t come around often. Estimated Due Date: July 2026 Stalled at T/R Cattle Stalls in the Hereford Barn under barn door 4B.

champions, high-performance sires, and program-defining daughters. This lineage is firmly established as one of the most reliable and respected in the breed. The heifers offered here radiate that same power and predictability. Their uniformity, balance, structural integrity, and maternal presence are no accident — they are the direct result of disciplined breeding, elite cow families, and sires proven on the biggest stages in the industry. These are females built to add value immediately and create momentum within a program for decades. Opportunities to access genetics with this depth of proven performance, maternal excellence, and national-level consistency are exceedingly rare. And even rarer still is the chance to choose from the very best daughters in the contemporary group. Bid boldly. Invest with certainty. This pick has the potential to reshape a program — and elevate its reputation — for years to come.

Here is a heifer that really should not be leaving the hill, but we are committed to raising and offering our very best and we feel that Naturally Sweet rises to the top of our 2025 heifer calf prospects rather handily. Not only is this Homozygous black, Homozygous polled TPG Frontrunner daughter a sweetheart to work with, she is extremely gentle and kid broke. Here is a heifer that is very feminine and extremely big middled that will not only will be competitive this summer in Grand Island, but her best days are truly ahead of her as a high-end replacement or future donor. When looking throughout her pedigree, you will see she has not only a past National Champion, HTFM Mr. Equalizer, in her pedigree, but several other patriarchs such as Black Impact, Basin Payweight and Carolina Leverage, as well as several high end donors, such as Matron 802U and Wilma 294Z8 ET. A pedigree this loaded is sure to produce a good one and HTFB Naturally Sweet N511 has tons of potential. Buy with confidence as she already won her class at the American Royal and she just keeps getting better. Retaining the right to one successful flush at the buyer’s convenience and seller’s expense.

It’s not every day you find a female to be a fun experience for a young showman, that can compete at a high level, and is destined for the donor pen in a single package…but then again, she is a Cowtown Julia 150J daughter, so we’re really not too surprised that she’s all that and then some. On the top side you’ll find none other than Ascendance K318, the highest performing AI sire from Hojer Ranch, who transmitted that tremendous growth to Ophelia.She cracks off a 826-lb. adjusted weaning weight and is in the top 4% for WW and top 10% for YW. This May prospect combines great structure with the added power and overwhelming rib shape that will allow her to compete at any level and then has the genetic make-up to become a front pasture donor. Take her on the road to shows while NCC retains half interest or double down for full possession and three-quarter embryo interest. Sells open.

She is flushed once every fall and consistently breeds right back to stay on schedule with our calving season—proof of her fertility, longevity and discipline as a donor. Her sons rise to the top of the bull sale year after year, and the few daughters she has given us have either been retained as replacements or have headlined our bred female sales. To date, 873F has put 11 sons through the last three Maternal Magic Bull Sales, where they have averaged $7,825. Her highest-selling son, TJB TAYD Garrett 411M, brought $17,500 in the 2025 sale. She also produced the high-selling female in our 2024 Bred Heifer Sale, commanding $9,750, now working in the Grayson Springs Cattle Co. program. 873F is as proven and predictable as they come.

The product of the first flush on our Cowtown Julia 150J donor, Madonna CTJ is exactly the kind of purebred female we were hoping to generate. Now? It’s her turn. This yearling heifer started her career this summer and has won her division across the map, Reserve Gelbvieh Female at the Western Regional, Reserve at Missouri State Fair, and Champion Gelbvieh Female at the Iowa State Fair. When so much growth, power, and tremendous lower body comes in such a sound made, maternal package with the EPDs and pedigree to back it up, it’s a no-brainer for us to add Madonna to our donor pen.

This young donor started her career being selected in the Top 5 Gelbvieh Females at Junior Nationals in 2022 as a calf. She was crowned at the NAILE, Missouri State Fair, Iowa State Fair, Western Regionals and more as your Champion Gelbvieh Female. She was one to get excited about as a calf, then as a bred, and back in the big rings as a pair and yet we truly believe she is at her best in the donor pen. Backed by one of our most prolific cow families and the Cowtown sire, we weren’t surprised when she transmitted her immense amount of power, hip shape and center body into the her first calf crop.

OFFERED BY: T/R CATTLE CO.

An exciting opportunity to once again acquire genetics from T/R Empress 111J ET “Gina”who is the full sister to MDR Empress 908G ET and MDR First Round Pick 9824G ET—siblings that have proven themselves as champions in the show ring and as hard-working production cattle in the pasture. These two Empress sisters represented in the lots 29 and 30 embryos are genuine donor females, and we believe the sires offered here are exactly the kind needed to make elite, high-percentage cattle. 111J is an exceptional individual. She offers more size, power and overall presence than her older sister, while still being long-fronted, elegant and beautifully extended from the side. She stands on a stouter foot and awesome hind leg, giving her the look and build demanded of a top donor female. The impressive show career of MDR T/R Empress 111J includes being named: 2023 Cattlemen’s Congress Reserve National Champion Female in the Open Show and Division Champion in the Junior Show; 2022 Cattlemen’s Congress Division II Calf Champion in the Junior Show; Division II Calf Champion in the Open Show; and the 2022 American Gelbvieh Junior National Champion Balancer Female. Additional siblings from this mating continue to exhibit the same special look, build and quality needed to make high-percentage, highly marketable progeny— making this mating a strong option for breeders looking to enhance phenotype and performance in one step. We have produced both bulls and heifers from sexed embryos out of 111J, and the quality has been tremendous. Her progeny have been selling to commercial cattlemen from Kansas to South Texas—without papers—for $5,500 to $9,000, and they are thriving in every environment they’ve entered.

Like lot 29A and 29B, Lots 30A through 30C represents another opportunity. MDR Empress 908G ET (“JoJo”) is a full sister to the widely recognized T/R Empress 111J ET and MDR First Round Pick 9824G ET. A standout from the beginning, JoJo was a barn favorite and went on to prove herself in the show ring—and now even more so as a high-end producing cow. Just two years ago, genetics from 908G commanded over $15,000 in this very sale. Phenotypically, 908G is an impressive female: attractive headed, clean and extended through her neck, deep and open in her center body cavity, and balanced from every angle. She carries a nearly perfect udder for a first-calf heifer and continues to set down on a comfortable rear leg with ideal angles both front and rear. Her production record backs it up. An embryo option previously sold as Option A resulted in a powerful bull calf that went on to be shown at Congress, and a full sister from Option B mating sits in the replacement pen with donor potential written all over her. Option C, sired by Stadium—the 2024 Overall Champion Bull at the Black Hills Stock Show and known as “Stunner”—represents a new sire line we are extremely excited about. He will keep progeny under 40% while allowing breeders to go higher with other sires for those targeting a breed-up program. Beyond her embryo success, JoJo’s natural calves deliver as well. Her first natural calf sold in this sale for $7,500 during our second year at Congress. Since then, every natural calf has been a bull, each selling to commercial cattlemen in Texas (without papers) and consistently bringing $6,000–$9,000. Simply put, these cows flat-out produce the kind of progeny cattlemen come back for year after year.

The CONGRESSIONAL NATIONAL GELBVIEH AND BALANCER SALE


Dear Gelbvieh Friends and Cattlemen: On behalf of the participating breeders and myself, I would like to welcome you to The Congressional National Gelbvieh and Balancer Sale, held in conjunction with Cattlemen’s Congress in Oklahoma City. This event provides a marketing outlet for the membership of the American Gelbvieh Association during the world’s largest cattle show. I would like to thank the Board of Directors, Association Staff, and the participating breeders for taking advantage of this opportunity to showcase the breed in what has become the beef cattle industry’s premier event. I am especially excited about this offering. Building upon the success of the 2024 and 2025 events, this is the largest, deepest and most impressive offering I have had the opportunity to market in the National Sale. This offering consists of an outstanding set of herd sire prospects, excellent bred heifers, elite show and donor prospects, as well as the herd picks, choice flushes, embryos and a semen lot backed by the most popular genetics in the Gelbvieh and Balancer realms. The genomically-enhanced EPD profiles of this offering are as impressive as their phenotype. The breeders involved are sharing their very best this year, so please take time to evaluate this special offering. I would like to again extend my sincere thanks to the staff and board of directors of Cattlemen’s Congress for their continued improvements to the venue and facility and for allowing us to market cattle during this event at this great location. It is my pleasure to continue working with Gelbvieh breeders while coordinating their National Sale, and I am very pleased, as I know you will be, with the offering assembled for 2026.

The CONGRESSIONAL NATIONAL GELBVIEH AND BALANCER SALE


American Gelbvieh Association EPDs and Economic Indexes Calving Ease Direct (CED): Percent of unassisted births of a bull’s calves when he is used on heifers. A higher number is favorable, meaning better calving ease. This EPD can be vital to a rancher looking to decrease the amount of calves pulled in his herd. Milk (Milk): The genetic ability of a sire’s daughters to produce milk expressed in pounds of weaning weight. Calving Ease Maternal (CEM): Represented as percent of unassisted births in a sire’s first-calving daughters. A higher number represents more favorable calving ease. This EPD is important to a rancher’s bottom line because it predicts which animals produce daughters with a genetic pre-disposition to calve unassisted as heifers. Heifer Pregnancy (HP): Predicts the probability that a bull’s daughters will become pregnant as first-calf heifers in a regular breeding season, expressed as a percent. A higher value of this EPD is favorable, meaning that a higher percentage of a sire’s daughters get pregnant as first calf heifers compared to other sires in his contemporary group. 30-month Pregnancy (Pg30): Predicts the probability that a bull’s daughters will become pregnant and calve at three years of age, given that they calved as first-calf heifers. This EPD is expressed as a percent, again, with a higher number being more favorable meaning a higher percentage of a sire’s daughters will calve at three years of age, given they calved as first-calf heifers. Stayability (STAY): Predicts the genetic difference, in terms of percent probability, that a bull’s daughters will stay productive within a herd to at least six year of age. The stayability EPD is one of the best measures currently available to compare a bull’s ability to produce females with reproductive longevity.

Weaning Weight (WW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 205 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning.

$GAIN: Reports the difference in expected marginal value of gain less the cost of feed to achieve that gain. Reported in dollars of marginal profit with more positive values representing increased efficiency and profit.

Yearling weight (YW): Predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to a standard 365 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling.

Maternal Profit Index (MPI): In this production scenario, Gelbvieh bulls are mated to Angus-based cows with surplus calves marketed at weaning, with replacement heifers retained from the calf crop. EPDs weighted in this index are Calving Ease Direct (CED) and Maternal (CEM), Weaning Weight (WW), Milk (MILK), Mature Weight (MWT), Dry Matter Intake (DMI), Stayability (STAY), and Heifer Pregnancy (HP). Mature weight is the primary driver and represents the significant cost of maintenance energy requirement in the cow-calf sector. Weaning Weight and Milk (expressed in pounds of calf weaning weight) represent the principal revenue stream. Stayability helps account for differences in replacement costs in the system and the effect of heifer retention on revenue streams. This index should be used by commercial cattlemen whose production scenario includes the traditional marketing of calves at weaning and replacement retention from the herd.

Mature Weight (MWT): Body weight of cows adjusted to six years of age at body condition score 5. MWT is reported in pounds and is computed from a genetic model that leverages information from weaning weight, post-weaning gain, and mature weights of cows. Reported weights are adjusted for both age at observation and for body condition. Body weights of cows 2 to 12 years of age are utilized in the evaluation. Cow Energy Requirement-Yearly (CERY): Mature body weight, lactation potential and birth weight are primary predictors of energy requirements. Mature Weight, Milk and Birth Weight EPD are utilized to inform prediction equations from beef cow nutrition research to estimate differences in energy requirement over a production year. The CERY EPD is reported in pounds of Total Digestable Nutrients (TDN) required for an age 6 cow. Yield Grade (YG): Differences in yield grade score, which is a predictor of percent retail product. Smaller values suggest that progeny will have a better lean to fat ratio. Carcass Weight (CW): Differences in pounds of hot carcass weight, adjusted to an industry standard age endpoint. Ribeye area (CREA): Differences in ribeye area in inches between the 12th and 13th rib. Greater ribeye areas are preferable.

Docility (DOC): Is reported as a percentage, with higher numbers indicating a higher percent of offspring receiving a disposition score of 1 (docile).

Marbling (MARB): Predicts the differences in the degree of marbling within the ribeye as expressed in marbling score units. Greater marbling numbers are preferable and are an indicator of higher carcass quality grades.

Scrotal Circumference (SC): Predicts the difference, in centimeters, of scrotal circumference of an animal’s male offspring at yearling compared to the SC of other animals’ male offspring.

Fat (CFAT): Differences for fat thickness, in inches, for a carcass over the 12th rib, smaller numbers of fat thickness are preferable as excess fat can be detrimental to yield grade.

Birth Weight (BW): Predicts the difference, in pounds, for birth weight of the calf.

Dry Matter Intake (DMI): The genetic difference in pounds of expected average daily dry matter intake of progeny.

Feeder Profit Index™ (FPI™): Envisioned as a completely terminal index, FPI assumes all calves are marketed as finished beef carcasses priced on a value-based grid. Thus, it shouldn’t be used in production scenarios where replacements are kept from these matings. The new FPI formulation more precisely weights Economically Relevant Traits (ERTs) available for selection, including the key carcass traits of Carcass Weight (CW), Ribeye Area (REA), and Dry Matter Intake (DMI) that were not included in the original formulation. The new FPI also weights Fat Thickness (CFAT), post-weaning Average Daily Gain (ADG), and Calving Ease Direct (CED). Carcass value determined by carcass weight, quality, and yield grade influencing traits accounts for approximately 75% of the index as principal revenue drivers. Dry Matter Intake (DMI) captures differences in expected costs to the terminal carcass endpoint. Total Profit Index (TPI): Combining replacement female retention from the herd with carcass endpoint for marketed surplus heifers and all steers, TPI balances both maternal and terminal selection criteria. Because of the challenges faced by commercial cattlemen by the antagonisms in selection for this production scenario, TPI includes the largest and most diverse set of EPDs in the model, including carcass traits as the primary revenue drivers with cow Mature Weight (MWT), Stayability (STAY) and Dry Matter Intake (DMI) as cost drivers.
