BLACK ANGUS BULLS

ON OFFER!

Increase Profit Not Production

Vee Tee bulls possess the genetics for early rapid

growth without that undesirable extended growth

curve. But there are other reasons to use our bulls.

Most ranchers are still programmed to believe the

myth that the only way to increase profit is to

increase production, usually through heavier

weaning weights. Many seed stock producers have

perpetuated the “profit through higher production

myth” by promoting the huge weaning and yearling

weights of their bulls. Unfortunately, production

increases don’t always translate into increased profit

and the two are usually antagonistic. Cattlemen need

to start thinking in terms of profit per cow instead of

pounds per calf. Where costs are documented, the

ideal weaning weight still ranges from 500 to 600

pounds--anything over that is usually at the expense

of net profit. If a commercial producer is trying to

reduce production costs and is keeping replacement

females, it doesn’t make sense to purchase bulls

from a herd that is strictly production oriented. The

Vee Tee bull is unique in his ability to sire daughters

that are functional in a forage based, least cost

environment while maintaining profitable

performance in their calves.

Welcome

Welcome everyone to our 2013 Bull Sale. We would

like to thank all our customers, past, present and

future, for their interest in our program.

Our Bulls

Our bulls are the top end of the 2011 calf crop with

none sold off. They have had nothing but grass or

hay and silage until this last few months. Since

January they have received no more than 8lbs of

barley and they are not burned out and the feet will

last!

Our Program

Lets talk about what makes a Vee Tee Angus different

from other purebred programs. 30 years of feed lot

and commercial cow business has shown us that

these points are what makes money.

What About Carcass?

What About Size?

Looking Good Has It’s Rewards

Selection for carcass genetics must be a balancing

act between marbling, external fat cover and percent

retail product. An overemphasis on marbling can

result in cattle with inadequate muscling. A positive

percent retail product EPD is equally if not more

important than marbling. Most of the Vee Tee herd

sires possess carcass EPDs that reflect a balance of

the carcass traits. We have analyzed carcass data on

many groups of cattle sired by our bulls. Despite

being heavier muscled, higher volume type cattle,

steers sired by our bulls typically display below

average fat cover, an above average marbling score

and superior cutability (percent retail product). We

have observed that while our bulls are noted for

their ability to sire improved fleshing ability on

forage, this does not translate into overfat carcasses.

Robert at Diamond 7 Meats says, “best carcass he has

ever seen”.

The debate over the ideal cow size will probably

never be settled, especially in purebred circles. While

some people still like added frame, we have selected

cattle so the steers reach the first 1150-1200 pounds

as quickly and cheaply as possible and the females

don’t end up maturing into excessive sized cows. A

typical Vee Tee cow run under our conditions

matures at 1250-1400 pounds and when we compare

cow production to cow size, our smaller cows are

usually the most profitable.

Our cattle have a unique and attractive phenotype.

While one cannot breed for looks alone, a review of

successful purebred and commercial cattle sales

reveals that as long as the other required selling

elements are in place, an attractive phenotype is an

economic factor. Cattle that are aesthetically

pleasing simply bring more money.

619W is a full brother to Ohlde’s herd sire O C C

PROTOTYPE 847P. This is the first set of bulls and they

are stout and thick. They will calf easy and the

daughters are perfect.


daughters these progeny are jaw dropping daughters.

B.B.A.R CHALLENGER 9133

When 616T broke his leg we got 9133 from Bowermans

as a replacement. He did a great job. We should have

bought him but must have been sleeping! LEGACY

daughters bred to LEGACY MUSCLEMAN bull make

perfect cattle.

OCC TOTAL 616T

Thick, thick, thick is all we can sa

HILLFIRE GLORY 409P

409P has become one of our most important sires. He

calves on heifers with a 100% no assist rate. Only a

couple bulls with him in the pedigree on the mother’s

side. Look for more of these bulls in the future.

Amazing son of Legacy. High seller at Bowerman 2006

Bull Sale for 15,000. Truly the ideal beef bull. Daughters

are beautifully udder and correct. Calves are thick and

fast growing. When people see him they are blown

away. Using him on the muscle man daughter or other

non-legacy daughters makes perfect cattle.

OCC STOCKY 753S

What can we say about this bull but PHENOMINAL!

John and I saw this bull in Kansas in 2008 and I wanted

him, bad. Tim Ohlde was reluctant to sell him, but he

did. Thank God. Every time I see him his depth, width

and muscle make me smile. Mixed with legacy

y. He was only able to

give us two seasons then he broke a leg, but what an

impact! Low birth with above average growth. We kept

a lot of his sons to use on our commercial heifers with

great results. This is the last chance to own these. As

there is no semen on this bull!

The Vee Tee program began with a commitment to

producing low birth, strong maternal, cost efficient

performance cattle that are easy fleshing and

require minimum maintenance while working in a

forage based environment. Our appreciation for this

type of cattle evolved over time and the years of

working with large numbers of cattle of several

breeds gave us the practical insight into the type of

cattle needed to meet our goals.

At Vee Tee Angus, balanced multiple trait selection

has always been the cornerstone of our breeding

philosophy. Most cattlemen today would admit that

single trait selection has caused more problems

than it’s solved. One need only look at the recent past

to see how an overemphasis on frame and growth

resulted in excessively large framed, high

maintenance cattle that were not practical or

profitable. Despite this awareness, true multiple trait

selection is often done in name only--witness the

number of people who use only milk EPDs when

talking about maternal traits or marbling EPDs

when discussing carcass sires.

We believe that cattle breeding is an art. There

remain essential cow herd traits not addressed

directly by performance testing and EPDs that Vee

Tee Angus must have. These traits include fleshing

ability on forage, capacity, excellent udder quality, a

gentle disposition and structural correctness. Mere

buzz words you say? Traits that are hard to define

and quantify can still be real. When differences exist

between cattle, no matter how subtle, selection

pressure can be applied to those differences. Maybe

that’s where the “art” of cattle breeding comes into

play.

Making progress through multiple trait selection

can be a slow process but our long term devotion to

that process has resulted in cattle that we believe are

unique. At Vee Tee Angus, maternal is more than just

milk, carcass means more than marbling and

performance is more than just pounds.

ABOUT VEE TEE ANGUS

Many cattlemen, commercial and seedstock

producer alike, are finding themselves at a

crossroads with their cow herds. Years of breeding

for increased production or using too many highly

promoted, unproven bulls has resulted in cattle that

are--and let’s be frank here--big, bad and ugly.

Vee Tee Angus is one of the few programs truly

equipped to address this problem. While remaining

solidly performance based, our unique herd bull

battery is also designed to moderate size, add

muscle, improve structural soundness and fleshing

ability and improve udder quality while maintaining

profitable production levels. Put simply, the Vee Tee

program is going beyond performance.

All cattle are sound and right and sell with a

“Responsible Breeders Guarantee”.

Our bulls are guaranteed to be structurally sound

and to have passed a semen test prior to sale day. We

guarantee satisfaction or we will replace the bull

with one of equal value. Should this not be possible,

an adjustment will be made to reflect the value of the

bull in question or a credit will be given towards the

purchase of another bull.
