Ryan & Karnell Perry 406/788-9869 406/390-5473
On behalf of my wife and myself, along with all the consignors and their respective families I would like to welcome you to the Annual Treasure Bull Test Sale. We thank you for your continued interest and support in the program and this sale. Merriam-Webster defines “Value” as: a fair return or equivalent in goods, services, or money for something exchanged. If you are wondering where I’m going with this. On average the consignors are selling bulls that would be anywhere from the Top 10% to Top 30% of there respective herds. The bulls where then put through an extensive test where only the Top 75% of those made the sale, and without a doubt from top to bottom this is as good of a set of bulls we have ever sold. Looking at those percentiles and as history has told us in a bull test production sale format there are truly outstanding bulls from the first in to the last sold. If you look at the pie chart on this page and put two and two together. It has been several years since you could trade straight across for a bull. With the way this slaughter bull market is, 27% of bulls sold would qualify. Digging deeper and looking at market potential in the future will allow you to buy 75% of the bull offering with two to a little over three steer calves if you remember what happened in 2014 and 2015 when we had the same supply issues we could potentially face here in the future. That is true “Value” for your dollar in the world we live in today. In fact, there is not another ag production expenditure that makes as much sense as buying these fresh, young athletic Black Angus Bulls. The consignors brought their best, allowing us to sell the best of the best to add value to your farm and ranch bottom line and cow herd. Once again, the sale will be on Northern Livestock Video Auction. Also feel free to preview them at www.northernlivestockvideo.com Finally, I would like to thank Matt, Chet, Coleman, and everyone involved at Muddy Creek Feedyard for the outstanding job they did. The bulls are in outstanding condition for immediate service. Please join us once again this year on Monday, April 18th at 4 PM, for “Happy Hour Bull Preview”. Plenty of refreshments, snacks, and fellowship among ranchers and TBT consignors to be had while previewing the bulls. We will see you at the sale on Tuesday, April 19th. You will truly appreciate this set of “Cowboy Kind” Angus Bulls! TBT Crew and Consignors

Driving the science of better breeding There’s little room for error in the cattle business. Producers need the most advanced information to make smart selection decisions, and Angus Genetics Inc. (AGI) provides it through genomic-enhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs). EPDs that traditionally contained all pedigree, performance and progeny information now also include results from available genomic, or DNA, tests. Breeders who use genomic technology give buyers access to AGI-generated GE-EPDs that provide: Increased predictability and decreased risk for young and unproven animals due to enhanced accuracy of EPDs Better characterization of genetics for difficult-to-measure performance traits (such as carcass traits, maternal traits and feed efficiency) The ability to make more rapid progress for traits that are important to you, due to: · more accurate selection · easier identification of genetic outliers · the ability to propagate young animals with confidence earlier in their lives
In fact, GE-EPDs on unproven animals have the same amount of accuracy as if they had recorded 8-33 calves, depending on the trait. That’s valuable insight, offered regularly through the breed’s weekly national cattle evaluation at www.angus.org.
How do you know if EPDs are genomic-enhanced?
TM
Ask your breeder, refer to the registration paper, or look for the AGI GE-EPD logo, Angus GS powered by partner Neogen GeneSeek or the HD50k or i50k by partner Zoetis.

Lots of power in this bull. His EPD’s put him in the top 1% for weaning and top 1% for yearling weight. Combine that with a top 3% feed efficiency and top 1% scrotal. There’s more. Do you need to correct feet? He ranks in the top 1% for foot angle and top 10% for claw. His docile Dam has 1 weaning at 111 ratio. Grand dam 3/101 weaning and 1/111 yearling.

Here’s a moderate framed, deep bodied bull with the substance to go with it. Dam averages 4 at 102 NR, 3 at 99 YR with an impressive 358-day calving interval. Granddam averages 7 at 100 NR, 3 at 105 YR. While muscle and marbling are typically antagonistic traits, Stevenson Everlast combines them both ranking in the top 10% of breed for ribeye and top 3% of the breed for marbling. Everlast is backed by a phenomenal cow family with dam posting 5 at 109 NR, granddam 4 at 105 NR, and great-granddam 5 at 109 NR.
Power, power, power! This herd bull prospect is one of the big spread bulls of the sale, coupling moderate birth (just +1.0 BW EPD) with outstanding performance across the board. He ranks in top 1% for $F, top 4% of the breed for YW, the top 10% of the breed for WW, $W, and $B, top 15% for milk, and top 25% for RE. Phenotypically, he’s long bodied, deep sided, square hipped, and tight sheathed. Highest weight per day of age bull in the test, he was raised on just shortgrass prairie, salt, and mineral before gaining 4.12 pounds per day at the bunk to top the WDA category. Dam averages 3 at 114 NR and 3 at 114 YR. Additionally, she has calved in the first cycle each year and has one daughter retained in the herd. A maternal brother by Stevenson Templeton sold in the Spring 2019 Stevenson Angus sale for $4,000. Sire, Stevenson Declaration 70748, combines calving ease, performance, volume, and eye appeal and is backed by an impressive cow family. CHAMPION WDA. JACKPOT RESERVE CHAMPION.

FOOT SCORE
Expected Progeny Difference (EPD), is the prediction of how future progeny of each animal are expected to perform relative to the progeny of other animals listed in the database. EPDs are expressed in units of measure for the trait, plus or minus. Interim EPDs may appear on young animals when their performance has yet to be incorporated into the American Angus Association National Cattle Evaluation (NCE) procedures. This EPD will be preceded by an “I”, and may or may not include the animal’s own performance record for a particular trait, depending on its availability, appropriate contemporary grouping, or data edits needed for NCE. Accuracy (ACC), is the reliability that can be placed on the EPD. An accuracy of close to 1.0 indicates higher reliability. Accuracy is impacted by the number of progeny and ancestral records included in the analysis. Calving Ease Direct (CED), is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf heifers. It predicts the average difference in ease with which a sire’s calves will be born when he is bred to first-calf heifers. Birth Weight (BW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit birth weight to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Weaning Weight (WW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit weaning growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Residual Average Daily Gain (RADG), feed efficiency expressed in pounds per day, is a predictor of a sire’s genetic ability for postweaning gain in future progeny compared to that of other sires, given a constant amount of feed consumed. Yearling Weight (YW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling growth to his progeny compared to that of other sires. Yearling Height (YH), is a predictor of a sire’s ability to transmit yearling height, expressed in inches, compared to the that of other sires. Scrotal Circumference (SC), expressed in centimeters, is a predictor of the difference in transmitting ability for scrotal size compared to that of other sires. Docility (DOC), is expressed as a difference in yearling cattle temperament, with a higher value indicating more favorable docility in a sire’s offspring compared to another sire.
Claw Set (Claw), is expressed in units of claw-set score. A lower EPD is more favorable, indicating a sire will produce progeny with more ideal claw set, which is toes that are symmetrical, even and appropriately spaced. Foot Angle (Angle), is expressed in units of foot-angle score. A lower EPD is more favorable, indicating a sire will produce progeny with more ideal foot angle, which is a 45-degree angle at the pastern joint with appropriate toe length and heel depth.
CARCASS
The genetic evaluation produces a single set of EPDs for carcass traits where the units of measure are in trait format and analyzed on an age-constant basis. Carcass Weight (CW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the differences in hot carcass weight of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Marbling (Marb), is expressed as a fraction of the difference in USDA marbling score of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Ribeye Area (RE), expressed in square inches, is a predictor of the difference in ribeye area of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires. Fat Thickness (Fat), expressed in inches, is a predictor of the differences in external fat thickness at the 12th rib (as measured between the 12th and 13th ribs) of a sire’s progeny compared to progeny of other sires.
$VALUE INDEXES
$Value Indexes, reported in dollars per head, are multi-trait selection indexes where a higher value suggests more profit. The $Value is an estimate of how future progeny of each sire are expected to perform, on average, compared to progeny of other sires if sires were randomly mated to cows and if calves were exposed to the same environment. Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M), expressed in dollars per head, predicts profitability differences in progeny due to genetics from conception to weaning. Increased selection pressure on $M aims to decrease overall mature cow size and improve foot structure and fertility while maintaining weaning weights consistent with today’s production. Weaned Calf Value ($W), expressed in dollars per head, provides the expected difference in future progeny preweaning performance from birth to weaning. Increased selection pressure on $W increases weaning and maternal milk traits while increasing mature cow size. Cow Energy Value ($EN), expressed in dollars savings per cow per year, assesses differences in MATERNAL cow energy requirements as an expected dollar savings difference in daughters of sires. A larger Heifer Pregnancy (HP), is a selection tool to increase the probability or chance of a sire’s value is more favorable when comparing two animals. Components for computing $EN savings daughters becoming pregnant as first–calf heifers during a normal breeding season. A higher EPD difference include lactation energy requirements and energy costs associated with differences in is the more favorable direction, and the EPD is reported in percentage units. mature cow size. Calving Ease Maternal (CEM), is expressed as a difference in percentage of unassisted births, Feedlot Value ($F), expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future with a higher value indicating greater calving ease in first-calf daughters. It predicts the average progeny performance for postweaning merit compared to progeny of other sires. The underlying ease with which a sire’s daughters will calve as first-calf heifers when compared to daughters of objective assumes commercial producers will retain ownership of cattle through the feedlot phase other sires. and sell fed cattle on a carcass weight basis with no considerations of premiums or discounts for Maternal Milk (Milk), is a predictor of a sire’s genetic merit for milk and mothering ability in his quality and yield grade. daughters compared to daughters of other sires. In other words, it is that part of a calf’s weaning Grid Value ($G), expressed in dollars per carcass, is the expected average difference in future weight attributed to milk and mothering ability. progeny performance for carcass grid merit, including quality and yield grade attributes, compared to progeny of other sires. Mature Weight (MW), expressed in pounds, is a predictor of the difference in mature weight of Beef Value ($B), expressed in dollars per carcass, represents the expected average differences in daughters of a sire compared to the daughters of other sires. the progeny postweaning performance and carcass value compared to progeny of other sires.

The Cowboy’s & Cowgirl’s Performance Test
American Angus Association $Value Indexes
Dollar value indexes, or $Values, are a tool used to select for several traits at once based on a specific breeding objective. An economic index approach takes into account genetic and economic values as well as the relationships between traits to select for profit. Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M), an index expressed in dollars per head, predicts profitability differences in progeny due to genetics from conception to weaning. $M is built off of a self-replacing herd model where commercial cattlemen replace 25% of their breeding females in the first generation and 20% in subsequent generations. Remaining cull females and all male progeny are sold as feeder calves. Increased selection pressure on $M aims to decrease overall mature cow size and improve foot structure and fertility while maintaining weaning weights consistent with today’s production. Weaned Calf Value ($W), an index expressed in dollars per head, provides the expected difference in future progeny preweaning performance from birth to weaning. $W assumes that producers retain 20% of their female progeny for replacements and sell the rest of their cull female and male progeny as feeder calves. Over time, increased selection pressure on $W will increase weaning and maternal milk traits while also continuing to increase mature cow size. Feedlot Value ($F), an index expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for post-weaning merit compared to progeny of other sires. The underlying objective assumes commercial producers will retain ownership of cattle through the feedlot phase and sell fed cattle on a carcass weight basis with no considerations of premiums or discounts for quality and yield grade. Grid Value ($G), an index expressed in dollars per carcass, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for carcass grid merit, including quality and yield grade attributes, compared to progeny of other sires. Beef Value ($B), an index expressed in dollars per carcass, facilitates simultaneous multi-trait genetic selection for feedlot and carcass merit. $B represents the expected average differences in the progeny postweaning performance and carcass value compared to progeny of other sires. This index assumes commercial producers wean all male and female progeny, retain ownership of these animals through the feedlot phase and market these animals on a quality-based carcass grid. Combined Value ($C), an index expressed in dollars per head, includes all traits that make up both $M and $B with the objective that commercial producers will replace 20% of their breeding females per year with replacement heifers retained within their own herd. The remaining cull heifer and steer progeny are then assumed to be sent to the feedlot where the producers retain ownership of those cattle and eventually sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid.
