1 Bred for Profit, Raised to Work. Bar CK Cattle Company s Profit Sharing 2017 Saturday, February 18 th 1:00 pm Culver, Oregon

2 Greetings from the crew at Bar CK......we would like to invite you to our 6th annual Profit Sharing Bull & Female Sale to be held at the ranch on February 18, Our slogan, Bred for Profit and Raised to Work, speaks first to our commitment to supply ranchers with genetics that are designed to improve herd profitability, and secondly, to develop those bulls in a manner that enhances their potential to deliver those genetics over years of heavy service. It has been nearly 7 years since Simmental & Red Angus published the first joint, multi-breed genetic evaluation, and in that time, we have been able to not only compare Bar CK genetics to other Sim-Angus, but seedstock from all breeds that participate in IGS. This has enabled us to produce SimAngus range bulls that are comparable to the best Angus /Red Angus sires for Carcass Quality and Calving Ease. We are especially excited about the quality and value in our 2017 female offering. The average age of our 75 female lots is less than 4 years of age, and the oldest females we ll offer turned 7 this fall - just in the prime of their reproductive life. A special feature to this year's sale include the dam's of several of our high selling herd sires, such as Wilson, Peerless, & Rogers. If you can, come on Friday to view the sale cattle and join us for dinner. We'll share the fellowship of fellow ranchers and have educational discussion over economic selection indices such as API & TI. Perhaps more importantly, we'll unveil a similar index to add value to our bull customers' calf crops - the Feeder Profit Calculator. Please let us know how we can help achieve your genetic goals and we hope to see you on February 17-18th. Take care, Mike 2 Location: Bar CK Ranch 8925 SW Green DR Culver, OR Directions: From Redmond: take Hwy 97 North for 15.7 miles, turn slight left on Old Culver Hwy 361 for 2.7 miles, turn left on Iris Lane for 1.0 miles, turn left on SW Feather Dr. for.01 miles, take the first right on SW Iris Lane for 1 mile, turn left on Green Dr. for.8 miles, turn left to Bar CK Ranch.

Bulls were treated prebreeding with BoviSheild Gold, Ultrabac 8, Long Range injectable wormer, Saber pour on, Vibrin, and Endovac-Beef. If bulls are going out of state, they may need additional tests. This process may take a few days. Bar CK Ranch will feed and house animals during this process. Ask a group of Ranchers, What s the most important trait for your sustained success? Chances are you ll get responses that include cow herd traits like Stayability or Heifer Pregnancy. Maybe you ll get Calving Ease, Quality Grade, or Post-Weaning Gain. Certainly someone will throw out Feed Efficiency. But, the obvious answer is the one that s least often heard - Profit! API & TI are economic selection indexes; sometimes called profitability indexes. They are a single number predictions derived from the weighted impact of each of an animals economically relevant traits (ERT) towards enterprise wide profitability. Just as EPDs predict relative performance, API and TI predict relative profitability - a bull with an API of 140 is expected to produce 20 more profit per cow exposed than a bull with an API of 120. API includes all those traits that impact profitability when bulls are selected by an operation to breed both Angus cows and heifers, where females will be retained as required to sustain constant herd size. Cull heifers and all steers are weaned, placed on feed, and marketed on a yield and grade basis. For operations that do not raise their own replacements, TI predicts the relative impact on profitability for bulls that are mated to mature Angus cows and all calves are weaned, fed and sold on a yield and grade basis marks the 74 nd anniversary of selection indexes application in animal breeding. Both API & TI are built on economic modeling that counts the impact of one trait unit of each ERT, then accumulates the collective impact of an animals EPD/ERT profile on profitability. API and TI are both Systems Thinking applied to beef cattle selection. When the goal is Profit these indexes represent a more direct and simplified approach to achieving that goal....we bred [Bar CK Tebow 1006X] to 200 first-calf heifers...we got super calving ease and high quality calves. We weaned those calves at less than 200 days in a very dry year and averaged 550 pounds on the steers and 500 on the heifers. I know there are people who criticize API, but I know it works! - Berry Anderson, Manager, Tree Tops Ranch, Princeton, OR 3

4 How the Auction Works Internet Bidding on Superior Click to Bid & EPD Terminology EPD (Expected Progeny Difference) EPDs predict differences in progeny performance and are the most meaningful predictor of animals genetic merit. API (All-Purpose Index): Predicts differences in sires contribution to profitabiity when mated to both Angus first-calf heifers and mature cows with the portion of their daughters required to maintain herd size retained and the remaining heifers and steers put on feed and sold on a grade & yield basis. TI (Terminal Index): Predicts differences in sires contribution to profitabiity when mated to both Angus mature cows and all offspring are put on feed and sold on a grade & yield basis. CED (Calving Ease): Predicts the probability of calves being born unassisted out of 2-yr-old heifers. BW (Birth Weight): Predicts differences in pounds of birth weight. WW (Weaning Weight): Predicts differences in pounds of weaning weight. ADG (Average Daily Gain):Predicts differences in post-weaning gain, expressed in lbs/day. YW (Yearling Weight): Predicts differences in pounds of yearling weight. MILK (Milk): Predicts dfferences in weaning weight due to milk. MCE (Maternal Calving Ease): Predicts the probability of 2-yr-old daughters calving unassisted. DOC (Docility): Predicts dfferences in weaning weight due to milk. STAY (Stayability): Predicts probability of daughters staying productive past 6 yrs of age. CW (Carcass Weight): Predicts differences in pounds of hot carcass weight. MARB (Marbling Score): Predicts differences in marbling score. YG (Yield Grade): Predicts differences in USDA Yield Grade Score. REA (Rib Eye Area): Predicts differences in rib eye area (in 2 ) HOW TO PARTICIPATE AS AN ABSENTEE BUYER We have made preparations to bid and buy your livestock through Superior Productions Call or Click-To-Bid service for those unable to attend in person on sale day.

43 Sale Information: Volume Discounts: 50.00/bull discounts if 5 or more are purchased and 100/bull if 10 or more are purchased. Guarantee: All cattle sell under the suggested terms and conditions of the American Simmental Association (ASA). Sale cattle are free of all know testable genetic defects, currently monitored by the ASA. In addition all bulls are guaranteed to be fertile and come with a 90 day first breeding season warranty by Bar CK. Should one of these bulls become incapable of breeding cows, Bar CK will exchange the bull with a suitable replacement or provide you with a credit equal to the bull s purchase price less his salvage value. This guarantee does not apply bulls that die or are killed and is not transferable to another buyer. Livestock Mortality insurance - can be obtained at settlement. Sale Females - Breeding/Calving Information: With the exception of the open heifers, all females will have either calved and/or been bred (AI an/or pasture service) prior to the sale. Status updates for the female offering will be made available through the BarCK website: and through the Superior Click-2-Bid website: Announcements from the auction block shall take precedence over this catalog and all other printed material. Retained Semen Interest: We are selling full possession, full salvage value and 50% revenue sharing semen interest in every bull. The buyer has total control of how bull is handled plus gets 100% of the salvage value. This simply gives Bar CK the right to half of the semen sales revenue if at sometime in the future semen sales becomes a possibility. If a buyer is not interested in marketing the semen from a bull then Bar CK has the right to collect a semen bank on the bull at our cost and the buyer s convenience. This semen bank would be 100% owned by Bar CK for our use or marketing. Realistically speaking it is unlikely that large amounts of semen will be sold from very many bulls. However, we have several top end bulls whose true breeding value will only be known after progeny data has been recorded and evaluated. Even bulls sold to commercial herds may become popular at a later time, especially if carcass data is collected on their calves. Contact us for different options on how data can be collected on sires relatively inexpensively. If you choose to collect semen from one of these bulls as an insurance policy for your own use that semen is 100% yours. We want to have a great partnership with you. Feeding and Possession Options: Bar CK Ranch will offer a 50 discount per lot for buyers picking up their purchases on sale day. All bulls can be kept free of charge until March 1, Bulls can be fed at Bar CK Ranch until spring breeding turn out for 4.00/day. We will take care of the bulls to the best of our ability, but we recommend that you protect your investment with insurance.
