We have a good friend by the name of Terry Hotchkiss from Mud Butte, SD. Each time you call Terry he will tell you he’s “living the dream.” Being a cowboy is the number one American dream. Most of us have fulfilled this dream by being in the cattle business, now it is our job to make this dream even better by improving the quality, performance and efficiency of our cattle.

We remain very optimistic in the cattle business even though we have seen a lower market in the past year. We need to remember that we are still seeing the second highest cattle market on record. The other thing that keeps us optimistic is when we see the projections for the amount of food that will be required globally in the future. The experts project that a large percentage of that demand will need to be protein. Typically, in a lower market there are higher premiums paid for higher quality cattle.

We know that when you are choosing where to purchase your genetics, there are many options. When considering high accuracy, industry leading genetics at economically fair prices, we trust you will find this sale offering presents one of the best genetic values in the beef industry. We welcome you to the farm north of Tracy, MN on February 12th. We feel you will truly find that the cattle are “Bred for Balance” and will help you capture premiums in the marketplace.

Blessings,Tom and Jim

Defining Bred for BalanceIf you Google the word BALANCE, a definition likely to surface is: “a condition in which different elements are equal or in the correct proportions”. This correctly summarizes the philosophy behind “Bred for Balance” as we are striving to breed seedstock with genetic and phenotypic traits in the correct proportion. This breeding goal is difficult as there are several antagonistic traits needing to be blended and balanced. The following are just a few examples:

Striving to honestly recognize and produce seedstock with respect for these antagonisms is of paramount importance to us. Selecting for excellence in one trait without acknowl-edging its effect on the total genetic and subsequent economic profile is a mistake we have repeated too many times in the past century. Seedstock bred to excel in a multitude of traits give purebred and commercial beef producers the best opportunity for profit.

This sale offering represents generations of pedigrees selected for genetic excellence as well as disposition, hoof quality/structure and fertility. Honest weights in contemporary groups, ultrasound and complete genomic testing drive one of the most accurate and dependable genetic profiles from which you can select your seedstock. We welcome your inquiries and look forward to showing you the results of our “Bred for Balance” program on February 12.

balance, verb: to weigh reasons; to compare, by estimating the relative importance, or economical

value of different traits

• Calving ease/ low birthweights vs. growth/pay weight• High growth/increased mature size vs. Cow herd maintenance costs• High maternal milk vs. Cow fertility/rebreeding• High marbling vs. Yield grade/back fat• Paper traits vs. Eye appeal traits

SALE MANAGEMENT

Page 4: 2016 Bred for Balance

PAGE 2 HOOK AND WULF

It is almost time for the much anticipated second edition of Bred for Balance. After a remarkable first year sale, the Wulf and Hook families once again have bred and developed a set of bulls and females that promise to generate interest, provide advanced genetic progress and ultimately profit for their new owners. Both programs are based on long term plans for making better cattle and better beef, then their com-mitment to working with customers to guarantee satisfaction seals in the value proposition. The highlights from last year’s sale were many, with genetics literally selling from coast to coast, but high value bulls were also available to customers at all price point levels. Whether you have interest in some of the most genetically advanced bulls avail-able anywhere or wish to consider the list of herd improving females offered, you will absolutely be impressed by the quality and depth avail-able. The combination of practical and appealing phenotype backed by breed leading EPD values are truly the reasons why the sale was named Bred for Balance. These cattle are proof that you really can have it all.

Please plan to be with us on February 12 in Tracy MN, or feel free to contact one of the sale staff with any questions or needs you may have.

Sincerely,

Marty RoppAllied Genetic Resources

WHY ARE THE HOOK AND WULF FAMILIES WORKING TOGETHER? Honestly analyzing talents and resources along with business goals, it becomes obvious a TEAM pulling in the same direction can accomplish more than an individual effort. Jim and Tom have known each other since meeting as teenagers showing cattle at the MN State Fair 4-H show in the mid 1970’s. While each was passionate about their breed of cattle, there was a mutual respect for how each competed: fairly and hon-estly. Through the decades, the beef industry and specifically the seedstock business would cause their paths to cross and the same mutual respect for each family’s growing operations was shared. When Jim and Twyla decided to make a business decision to purchase their own ranch, Tom was contacted to consult about purchasing Simmental seedstock. The two families have been working co-operatively together, while keeping their individual ownership and operations.

WHY DNA TEST, ULTRASOUND AND PERFORMANCE TEST ALL OF THE BULLS? The answer is simple: To provide our fellow beef producers with the most accurate and comprehensive data to make their seedstock se-lections. The bull selections made this spring will affect cowherds well beyond the next decade….. Make your selection from a seedstock provider who gives you all the data to make a wise decision.

Genomic enhanced EPDs. • Beautiful Entrepreneur sired female with fresh pedigree and an impeccable blend of a

stout genetic profile with sound structure and style. • Charisma decided to come early and was born during last year’s sale to the Lot 92 bred

female and consequently we pulled her from the sale. • Great testimony to the potential selling every year in the bred female offering!
