PRICKLY PEAR SIMMENTAL RANCH SALE BARN

Dear Cattlemen, 

Wow! What a year can bring! 

There we were in the spring of 2011 trying to teach our cattle to swim, and we had lots of 

great summer grass and hay. Then fast forward to the spring and summer of 2012 where 

moisture was a hope and prayer. This past summer was tough for most of the west. We went 

from late March until mid November without any substantial moisture. Don and the neighboring 

ranchers all agreed that the Elkhorns were dryer this year then when it burned in 1988. 

We were forced to gather the bull calf pairs from our Crystal Creek pasture in the Elkhorns 

six weeks early due to lack of good grass. As I scrambled to keep our cows on good pasture 

you will notice that the 205 weights are a little down from normal due to the fact that we do 

not believe in creep feeding. 

I feel the bulls are very consistent from top to bottom again this year and the Sitz Emblazon 

9598 calves are definitely stand outs. The bred heifers out of him look like they are going to 

be high fertility, moderately framed cows. Our Club King bulls are some of the heaviest muscled 

in the sale. Again this year we have some very nice SAV Final Answer 0035 sons and 

daughters for sale. The red bull and heifer selection is the best we’ve had in awhile. RFS Red 

Iron cattle have lots of length and growth. GCF MR. Amigo calves are low birth weight with 

plenty of eye appeal. 

I would again like to thank the Burnham Family for standing behind me on my decisions made 

for the future of this program. I continue to strive to keep finding what I think are the top genetics 

in the Simmental and Angus Breeds. I would also like to say thank you to my crew for 

all the long days. 

A big thanks to all our loyal customers who continue to support our program. In addition I 

would also like to thank Lee Bowman, Dr. Deidre Loendorf-Ask,DVM, Sonya Gregory, Ultrasound 

technician, Vanek Cattle services, Roger Jacobs, and my family. 

Sincerely, 

Troy Wheeler 

Cattle Manager

NEW CUSTOMERS 

For those of you that are new customers I just want to go over a few goals we strive for: 

#1 is disposition. I see a lot of people now are putting disposition codes in their catalogs. We take great pride in the 

disposition of our cattle, so you can assume they’re all very docile unless noted by us. 

#2 is retaining the growth while improving everything else we all want - calving ease, smaller birth weights, moderate 

frame size, good udders, feet, etc. Growth is one of Simmentals best assets. Some people are concentrating on birth 

weights so hard they are losing the growth advantage. 

#3 We concentrate more on calving ease and maternal calving ease than birth weights. All the bulls in the sale were 

unassisted at birth. 

#4 We also look at individual performance more than growth EPDs. The EPDs will change if the animal has the performance, 

but the animal won’t always perform just because he’s got good EPDs. 

For those of you that have never actually weighed a calf I urge you to do so a few times. I think you’ll be surprised. Every 

time we have visitors I make them guess and they are usually about 15 pounds light! 

SIGHT UNSEEN PURCHASES

RETAINED SEMEN INTEREST 

The bull buyer will receive full possession, 100% salvage value, and 2/3 semen interest of any bull purchased 

in this sale (unless otherwise noted). This means we are retaining a 1/3 semen interest in these 

bulls. This semen interest is a royalty interest that entitles Prickly Pear Simmental Ranch to 1/3 of the revenues 

of any semen sold. PPSR semen interest remains even if the bull or any interest in the bull is sold to 

a third party. It is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure that PPSR’s interest is upheld if semen is ever sold. 

The buyer must also inform any third party of PPSR’s interest if the bull is ever sold. PPSR will not be responsible 

for expense related to semen collection or promotion of any bull purchased, unless a mutual 

agreement is reached prior to semen collection or promotion. Our retained semen interest also includes 

the right to collect semen on the bull at our expense and the buyer’s convenience. 

ACTUAL SCROTAL MEASUREMENTS 

We do not believe in adjusted yearling scrotal measurements, therefore, all scrotal measurements are 

actual figures. Actual measurements will be taken on January 22, 2013. All bulls under 30 centimeters 

will be sifted regardless of age. The bull’s testicular size is an early indicator of puberty, which is 

passed on to their sons and daughters. Bulls with larger testicles service more cows and produce more 

semen, plus their daughter’s cycle at an earlier age and have a higher conception rate. 

All bulls are measured, palpated and fertility tested by Dr. Deidre Loendorf-Ask,DVM prior to sale. The 

scrotal measurements will be on a supplement sheet along with the carcass data. 

Most testicular growth occurs from nine to twelve month of age. Remember to consider the age 

of the calf on January 22 when using these measurements.

SUGGESTED MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES FOR YEARLING BULLS 

We are believers in the use of yearling bulls and feel it is one of the best years of their lives. It’s a time 

when the bulls are easy to manage and their only concern is breeding cows. We have found that yearling 

bulls that are managed carefully during the second year of their lives not only do well, but they will also 

perform better over time. 

Below are some suggested guidelines for the care of yearling bulls: 

1. Upon delivery to your ranch, keep yearling bulls separate from older bulls. Feed the yearling bulls a 

maintenance ration of 5-8 lbs. per head of grain and free choice hay. Reduce grain feed gradually so 

they are on straight hay or grass 2-4 weeks prior to breeding season. 

2. When possible, try to limit the bulls to 45-60 days of pasture service the first year. At this time, or as 

soon as possible, remove the bulls to put them in separate pastures with plenty of good, quality grass. 

3. It is best to feed yearling bulls separate from older bulls until after their second breeding season. This 

allowes them to achieve the growth and strength necessary to compete with older bulls for feed and space. 

You will see the benefits of a litttle added cost and care of feeding a yearling bull by probably two or 

three more years of service from a well managed and healthy bull. 

QUICK GUIDE TO ASA EPDs AND $ INDEXES 

Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs): EPDs are the most accurate and 

effective tool available for comparing genetic levels. In using EPDs, the difference 

between two sires’ EPDs represents the unit difference expected in the 

performance of their progeny. For example, if sires A and B have EPDs of 

+10 and –5, a 15-unit difference would be expected in their progeny (moving 

from -5 to +10 yields 15 units). Key to using EPDs is knowing what units 

they are expressed in. For example, if the above case referred to weaning 

weight EPDs, A would be expected to sire 15-pounds more weaning weight 

than B. If calving ease were the trait, A would be expected to sire 15-percent 

more unassisted births in first-calf heifers; in other words, if B sired 30 assists 

in a group of 100 heifers, we’d expect A to require 15 assists. A percentile-ranking 

chart is required to determine where a bull’s EPDs rank him 

relative to other bulls in the breed. For percentile rankings or more detailed 

information about EPDs and $ indexes visit www.simmental.org. Listed below 

are the units ASA EPDs are expressed in: 

All-Purpose Index (API): Dollars per cow exposed under an all-purposesire 

scenario. (See below for more details.) 

Back Fat (BF): Inches of backfat. 

Birth Weight (BW): Pounds of birth weight. 

Calving Ease (CE): Percent of unassisted births when used on heifers. 

Carcass Weight (CW): Pounds of carcass weight. 

Maternal Calving Ease (MCE): Percent of unassisted births in first-calving 

daughters. 

Milk (MLK): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk. 

Marbling (MRB): Marbling score. 

Maternal Weaning Weight (MWW): Pounds of weaning weight due to milk 

and growth. 

Ribeye Area (REA): Square inches of ribeye. 

Warner-Bratzler Shear Force (WBSF): Pounds of force required to shear 

a steak. 

Stayability (STAY): Percent of daughters remaining in the cowherd at 6 

years of age. 

Terminal Index (TI): Dollars per cow exposed under a terminal-sire scenario. 

(See below for more details.) 

Weaning Weight (WW): Pounds of weaning weight. 

Yearling Weight (YW): Pounds of yearling weight. 

Yield Grade (YG): Yield grade score. 

$ Indexes: Though EPDs allow for the comparison of genetic levels for many 

economically important traits, they only provide a piece of the economic puzzle. 

That’s where $ indexes come in. Through well-conceived, rigorous 

mathematical computation, $ indexes blend EPDs and economics to estimate 

an animal’s overall impact on your bottom line. The same technology that led 

to the dramatic progress in swine, poultry and dairy genetics over the last several 

decades was used to develop the following $ indexes: 

All-Purpose Index (API): Evaluates sires for use on the entire cow herd 

(bred 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 grade and yield. 

Terminal Index (TI): Evaluates sire for use on mature Angus cows with all 

offspring put on feed and sold grade and yield. 

Using API and TI: First, determine which index to use; if you’re keeping replacements 

use API, if not, TI. Then, just as with EPDs, zero in on the unit difference 

between bulls. (As described above, index units are in dollars per cow 

exposed.) The difference can be used to determine how much a bull is worth 

compared to another. Or, put another way, how much you can pay for one bull 

compared to another. For example, when buying an all-purpose-type sire, you 

can quickly figure a bull scoring +100 for API is worth an extra $6,000 over 

a+50 bull if both are exposed to 30 cows over 4 years ($50 diff. x 30 hd. x 4 

yr. = $6,000). A percentile-ranking chart is required to determine where a 

bull’s index value ranks him relative to other bulls in the breed. For percentile 

rankings or more detailed information about EPDs and $ indexes.

I liked this calf so much this spring that I made his dam a donor cow. She also raised our herd sire 

PPSR Double the Beef who sired the high selling bull in our 2012 Bull Sale. He's moderate framed
