Cow Energy Value ($EN), is expressed in dollar savings per cow each year due to lower cow maintenance energy requirements (due to lactation and body size) with a larger number being more favorable. Feedlot Value ($F), expressed in dollars per head, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for postweaning feedlot merit (growth and feed efficiency) compared to progeny of other sires, assuming producers retain ownership of cattle and sell on a carcass weight basis. Grid Value ($G), expressed in dollars per carcass, is the expected average difference in future progeny performance for carcass grid merit, including quality and yield grade attributes, compared to progeny of other sires. Beef Value ($B), expressed in dollars per carcass, 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 and sell on a carcass merit 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 sell them on a quality-based carcass merit grid.

$VALUE INDEXES
$Value Indexes, reported in dollars per head, are multi-trait economic selection indexes where higher values suggest more profit when comparing two individuals.
Maternal Weaned Calf Value ($M), expressed in dollars per head, predicts profit- ability differences in progeny from conception to weaning by decreasing mature cow size and improving docility, foot structure and fertility while maintaining weaning weights consistent with current production. Weaned Calf Value ($W), expressed in dollars per head, provides the expected difference in future progeny preweaning performance from birth to weaning.

As always, on sale day and before, we will have binders with the performance pedigrees for each sale lot for anyone to inspect. These perfor- mance pedigrees contain ALL of the ratios, EPDs and $Values on each lot plus the same for their sire and dam. Sale book space does not allow for the display of 30 plus EPDs and $Values. Updated EPDs and $Values can be viewed anytime at Angus.org.
THE BULL BREEDING GUARANTEE All bull lots have passed a Breeding Soundness Exam and are guaranteed breeders for a period of 90 days following the initial turn out with the buyer’s herd as long as the bull has received proper care. For any bull failing to breed we will provide a replacement, if available, or issue a credit equal to the bull’s purchase price minus the salvage value received for the bull. This is not an injury policy, a sickness policy or a life insurance policy. Insurance will be available at the clerk’s desk when you make settlement. See page 29 for COMPLETE Sale Terms and Conditions.
DELIVERY CREDIT We offer free delivery, within 200 miles of the sale site, for any BULL lots . This offer is valid for BULL lots only. We will be consolidating trips by location, so buyers MUST be able to receive the Bulls when delivery is being made to your area. Buyers who pick up their Bulls on the day of the sale will receive a $50 credit, per Bull Lot , toward their purchase. We currently don’t offer free delivery on females, but will be glad to help make arrangements for trucking if needed.
