1. CE – Calving Ease: the higher the value the greater the calving ease expected in first calf heifers.

2. BW – Birth Weight: expressed in pounds, is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less birth weight.

3. WW –Weaning Weight: expressed in pounds, is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less pounds at weaning.

4. YW – Yearling Weight: expressed in pounds, is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less pounds of yearling growth.

5. Mk – Milk: is a predictor of his genetic potential for his daughter’s milk and mothering ability.

6. CW – Carcass Weight: expressed in pounds is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less carcass weight.

7. RE – Ribeye Area: expressed in square inches, is a predictor of his ability to transmit more or less Ribeye area.

8. MB – Marbling: expressed as a USDA marbling score & reflects his ability to improve marbling.

9. INDEX

4 Simmental influenced cattle: API – All Purpose Index: calculates the total potential value of his birth, growth, carcass, muscle & maternal genetics.

9. INDEX

4 Simmental influenced cattle: TI – Terminal Index: calculates his terminal (non-maternal) value based on growth, muscle, & carcass.

4 Gelbvieh influenced cattle: FPI – Feeder Profit Index: An economic selection index designed to aid producers in selecting sires whose progeny will perform in the feedlot and are sold on grade and yield. Well ranking sires for FPI have higher marbling and carcass weight than their contemporaries. As a terminal index, little emphasis is put on maternal traits such as stayability and calving ease.

10. ADJ SC – Adjusted Scrotal Circumference: the 12-month adjusted scrotal size of yearling bulls.

11. FR – Frame Score: Yearling hip measurements predict mature frame size.

12. PEDIGREE

13. FHG STAR RANkING SYSTEM—This system ranks cattle in five major areas of customer genetic needs—Disposition, Growth, Muscle, Carcass and Maternal. See facing page for full explanation.

Disposition—1H & 2H culled, 3H Good, 4H Better, 5H Best. Growth, Muscle, Carcass and Maternal—3H ranking identifies breed average genetics for the trait, a 4H ranks them within

the top 50% to 25% of the breed and a 5H ranks them within the top 25% of the breed genetically for the traits. Informa-tion used to develop these rankings includes performance measurements of the individual animal, his sire and his dam, EPD’s and ultrasound data. Our Star Ranking System combines all the data into a simple ranking system to help you easily find the specific genetics you need for a trait or combination of traits.

14. COLOR STATUS - Ho. Black (will only produce black calves), Black (carrier of red color gene), or Red.

15. POLLED STATUS—Ho. Polled (by pedigree or DNA test) will produce only polled calves, Polled or Scurred (not horned).16. BREED MAkEUP

Flying H Genetics retains 50% semen interest in every bull sold. The buyer receives 100%possession and resale or salvage value and 50% semen interest. - If Flying H Genetics chooses to utilize their semen interest, they will coordinate with the owner and pay all expenses for their semen. If a semen sales market develops on a bull, Flying H Genetics will work with the owner to promote and sell semen splitting the expenses and income 50/50. Again, this semen reserve does not affect the buyer’s ability to have full use of and receive full sale price for the bull with the semen reserve following the bull to the new owner. We estimate that this may only affect 1 or 2 bulls per year. If you have questions, please visit with Kyle or Dick at any time.

53 bulls known to be homozygous black,

40 bulls known to be homozygous polled—

many are both!

Flying H Genetics’ Roughage N’ Ready Herd Bull Sale | 5

Because disposition is a very important management and safety issue, Flying H Genetics has researched and developed a system to score all of their cattle, including any cattle sold for breeding purposes, for disposition to eliminate the unacceptable ones. We have been culling on disposition for years but scoring them quantifies and indentifies them more accurately making culling more accurate and effective.

Cattle are a herd instinct animal. Seperate them from the herd and their natural response is to flee back to the group or fight for their life. Domesticating them has gentled them but their natural instincts of flight and fight are still there at varying degrees Generally, the sooner and more often cattle are in contact with and handled by humans in a calm, nonthreatening way, the more trusting and less flighty or threatened they will feel.

Knowing this, our system separates an individual animal from the group into a small pen with one or two people to add a common stressor. Since all cattle have a different disposition (just like people) this will create different degrees of nervousness, flight and fight that can be scored. Scoring the different levels of nervousness, flight and fight allows us to identify different levels of disposition. The scores range from 1 to 5 with 5 being the most calm. This is a subjective score but certain actions help group the cattle into the five different levels. Following is a general discription of the type of actions observed while scoring that help rank each individuals disposition.

One Star–animal is very nervous and agitated and is looking for an escape route. Will not stop and stand, tests the fence and will show fight and turn on you if pressed. When the out gate

is opened he leaves on the run. He’s always at the back of a group, head up and keeps his distance. He will make others nervous and flighty and is hard to sort from the group. Anything new will create great distress and he will get more agitated the longer he’s held seperately. Due to safety issues these are culled immediately.

Two Star–animal is nervous and very uncomfortable. He will keep moving, walking the fence and trot or run if approached. Not as likely to show fight but will exit fast. Very observant and keeps his distance even in a group. He will be a little hard to sort from the group. He’s always nervous and flighty in a strange situation. He presents a safety concern and causes handling problems with the whole herd so is culled asap.

Three Star–animal is uncomfortable wanting to keep distance. He will stop but is very attentive and moves without much pres-sure. He’ll exit at a fast walk or slight trot. Handles fine in a group but gets nervous when seperated, wanting to rejoin the herd. Can get excited if pressured or forced out of comfort zone so low stress, low pressure handling helps.

Four Star–animal moves when pressure is applied but will stop easily. Will stand and allow you to approach but not get too close. Exits at a walk. Fast movements, load noises and strange situa-tions will make him nervous. Low stress handling works great.

Five Star–animal is very calm and gentle, easy to sort and move. Will stand, allow you to approach and maybe touch him and may even approach you. Needs to be urged to leave the pen. Can get excited but calms down quickly. Responds well to proper handling.

For an accurate ranking or comparison within the different breeds we use our 5 STAR INDEX to rank them so you can eas-ily find bulls that fit the needs you have. Need more muscle, pick 4 and 5 STAR MUSCLE bulls? Need a bull to produce re-placement heifers, pick bulls with 4 and 5 STARS for MATERNAL. There are a number of bulls that have 5 STARS for all traits which means they rank in the top 25% of their breed for all these traits—exceptional genetic packages Our 5 STAR INDEX allows you to find the best genetics for your needs without having to know all the numbers and breed rankings.

Since 2012 Gelbvieh, Balancer, Simmental, SimAngus and Red Angus EPD’s have all been calculated by International Genetics Solutions based in Bosman, Montana. Each breed has a slightly different average but all use the world’s largest multibreed data set with over 12,000,000 data points to calculate their EPD’s and are comparable against each other. We of-fer you several genetic packages so you can select from the best genetics possible instead of being limited to just one breed or hybrid. What makes this extra special is that since all breeds offered are evaluated genetically with the same data set and reported on the same base they are comparable against each other.

Why pay $6 per pound for fat? The only reason bulls are fed fat is to make them look better because it increases their weights and they “look” thicker and smoother. None of this changes the genetics or pounds they transfer to their calves. ROUGHAGE N’ READY bulls are the real deal—what you see is what you get—and they will look better not worse because they will continue to grow instead of melting off 100 pounds of fat. If our weaning weights and yearling weights are less than you are used to, just at the 100 pound—fat—factor and I bet you’ll agree that they are as good as any in the industry.

We offer you frame scores on every bull as an important piece of data to help quantify the potential mature size and com-position of the bulls. After 30 years of frame scoring, I can tell you it is the least accurate measurement taken. Repeatability is the lowest of anything we measure, so we recommend that you use it but don’t get so specific that if it is a half a frame score taller or shorter than you like, don’t eliminate the bull just for his frame score. A half a frame score is only 1” and can be affected by how the bull holds his head or places his feet while taking the measurement. Obviously, there is a noticeable difference between a frame 5 and 6 bull but don’t discount a bull if he is a half score off from your ideal because you may eliminate a tremendous bull that will make you a lot of money.

ROUGHAGE N’ READY™ means our bulls and females are developed on roughage diets to make sure they can make a liv-ing on roughages. Over 10% fail this forage ability test.

Beef cattle have four stomachs to convert roughages (straw, corn stalks, hay, grass, etc.) into usable energy and protein to pro-duce, reproduce and supply us with great tasting beef. Try feeding hogs or chickens or fish some straw and see what happens.

Developing bulls and heifers on roughages trains them to forage and work for their food and helps us identify those that cannot survive without a corn bucket so we can eliminate them before marketing them as breeding stock.

In Nebraska we use grass, straw, corn stalks, cane hay, silage and wet distiller’s grains as roughages for our rations. In Missouri, the bulls are Grown On Grass® (fescue) year around with dried dis-

tiller’s grains and other by products like soy hulls to supplement the protein and energy the grass lacks during parts of the year.

Our ROUGHAGE N’ READY™ development system identifies genetics that make the cattle business profitable. Being able to make a living and produce efficiently on roughages is the big advantage beef cattle have over our competition. Even if we do feed corn to produce premier corn-fed beef products, most of their life is spent converting roughages to beef. How many years do your cows spend producing and reproducing without ever eating a kernel of corn? A corn-fed steer may only utilize corn for 4 months out of his 15 month life span. That’s why you should be buying ROUGHAGE N’ READY™ BULLS and FEMALES. They are developed and proven to have the genetics to make ranching profitable.

WHAT IS ROUGHAGE N’ READY™ ?

We can offer you this tremendous set of bulls thanks to the hard work and genetic craftsmanship of the breeders below. The Flying H network is a series of

relationships that allow our herds and those of our coop breeders to function as one interconnected collection of genetic resources for our customers

Welcome to one of the best selections of industry rel-evant genetics you can find. Combining breeds to produce superior genetics takes proper breed selection focused on complementation and the beef industry’s needs. Choosing superior genetics from each breed to complement each individual mating for a variety of necessary traits gives you superior genetics that produce superior cattle.

Tlhe combination of superior genetics plus the positive benefits of heterosis on many traits, especially ones hard to improve like fertility, longevity and efficiency, will give you more value and a superior product. Complementing Angus with Gelbvieh and Simmental, combined with heterosis in both the cow and the calf, adds value, profits and success to the entire beef industry. Enjoy!

Page 16: Flying H Genetics Spring 2015 Bull Sale, Nebraska

The Tradition Continues

Agriculture, crops, cattle and horses, has been our oc-cupation for generations; seed stock production was added by my father Clarence in 1948 with the purchase of one regis-tered heifer for $385. He showed and sold her first bull calf at the National Western Stock Show in Denver, CO for $4975 and he was hooked.

Clarence and Lois moved to the current Nebraska Flying H Genetics sale site after World War II, living and raising a family, crops and registered cattle for 60 years before selling to Kyle and Kayla in 2006, the fifth generation of Helms’s to carry on the fam-ily tradition. Their daughters are number six.

In 1976, Dick and Bonnie moved back to the farm/ranch after graduating from the University of Nebraska with degrees in Ani-mal Science, Ag. Economics and Ag. Journalism. They purchased the farm where Dick’s mother was born and developed it into the bull development headquarters for the operation.

Dick and his three brothers were members of 4-H and FFA with their experience and profits paying for their cars, educa-tion and first heifers to start their herds.

In 1968, as part of an FFA project, they purchased a scale and took their first weaning weights. That was followed by breed-ing their first cows with Artificial Insemination in 1971 and utilizing the new technology of Embryo Transfer in 1973.

Dad always said, “If you’re going to do it, do it the best you can”.

The demand for good bulls and females continued to grow as the industry continued to change. This lead to the addition of Gelbvieh genetics in 1982, the development of Gelbvieh X Angus hybrids in 1995 and the addition of Simmental genetics in 2008. These additions allow Flying H Genetics to offer their customers more genetic choices to utilize heterosis (crossbred vigor) and complimentary breeds and genetics to produce bet-ter cattle.

In 2005, to better serve their customers in the southeastern United States, Flying H Genetics added a ranch in “the fes-cue” belt. This production and marketing center is currently located in Lowry City, MO. “Grown On Grass” bulls are developed grazing fescue grass with some supplementation to identify bulls that can tolerate entophyte infected fescue grass and are muscular, athletic and ready to go to work. This

niche has grown into sales the third Saturday of March and the fourth Saturday of October plus private treaty sales providing over 250 “Grown On Grass” bulls annually.

“Doing our best” always means utilizing the best tools available. While taking and processing thousands of weights and measurements every year and extensive use of AI and ET, today’s tools include ultrasounding for carcass traits, EPD’s and Indexing and DNA testing. Flying H Genetics spends thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours every years utiliz-ing these tools to identify and cull genetics that are not “indus-try improvers” and identifying and developing the genetics that make the cattle better and our customers more money.

We believe that a quality product is the first part of great customer service. And, our 65 years of experience has taught

Every family has their unique sto-ry. The Helms Family Story starts in Germany, moves to America in 1867 with my Great Grandfa-ther when he was eighteen years old, then to a homestead where my grand-father was born in 1889 northeast of Arapahoe, Nebraska.

TRUSTWORTHY“My Dad bought his first bulls from Helms family in the 1960s. Over the years we have been impressed with the improved quality and value of the bulls each year. Using Flying H Genetics bulls has improved our cowherd and made us a lot of money. We have only been to the Flying H Ranch one time and always buy our bulls sight-unseen on the phone. The one word I would use to describe Flying H is Trustworthy.”

Sean Brenner, colorado

The Tradition Continues

us how to take care of our customers after the sale.Flying H Genetics 17 Quality Standards that every animal

must pass before being sold, coupled with our industry--lead-ing warranties and guarantees means our customers get great genetics and great service.

Sixty-five (65) years is a long time. A lot has changed and many things have gotten better. I am amazed at how much different seed stock production and the genetic business is today than when Clarence sold his first bull in 1949. Tools like EPD’s and DNA genetic testing allow us to more accurately identify an animal’s true genetics. This helps us get our cus-tomers the exact bulls they want to get their specific job done. Although not perfect, todays tools help us build better bulls and females and identify their genetics so our customers can

buy what they want, in the color they want, with the specific traits they need.

As Flying H Genetics transitions into this high tech era of seed stock production, it is exciting to think about the future. But, know-ing that our future is grounded on a solid foundation of family heritage, honesty and integrity and a vision of providing superior genetics and service is what makes me smile.

Dick and Bonnie are current owners of Flying H Genetics. With the help of family and friends they operate two locations in NE and MO marketing semen, females and around 400 bulls per year to over 1000 customers in almost every state and some foreign countries. They are proud of the fact that they are helping over 20 families participate in and build the beef seed stock industry of the future.

IMPRESSIVE“Between my Dad and me, we have bought bulls from FHG for over 30 years. Disposition, calving ease and weaning weight are the top 3 traits that are very important to us since we sell our calves off the cow in the fall. We are impressed with the contin-ued improvement in the bulls each year. Not only are the bulls from FHG Impressive, but Dick and his crew have been a very impressive and caring group of people to work with.

Jeff Grabill, Nebraska

CONSISTENCYAs a young family starting our cattle program, Flying H Genetics has really helped us make tremendous progress with both their advice and their high quality genetics. We bought our first bulls from Flying H in 2004 and the last few years our calves have been either the high selling or next to high selling group for their weight class. When they come in the ring it is quite noticeable they are heavier muscled than straight Angus calves. What we really like is the consistency and high quality of their bulls and it shows up in our calves.

Jason and Kelsey Kunkel, Nebraska

We are extremely excited to let you inspect and analyze this year’s lead off Purebred Gelbvieh bull. We feel Mr. Traction 45B is one of a kind in the Gelbvieh breed and look forward to watching him improve cowherds across the nation. With EPD’s that are Top 10% CE & BW, 25% WW, 15% YW, 4% ST, 20% REA, 25% MB, 3% FPI he is sure to meet the needs of today’s cattlemen and women. From eye appealing replacement heifers to selling powerful Seedstock bulls or finishing a set of steers he covers all the basis. With ratios of 87 BW to 102 YW he will calve easy and finish strong. His natural muscle expression, flaw-less structure and phenotype, and extreme maternal strength just add to the overall package. We are offering full possession and ½ semen interest limited to in herd use for the first two years. We are also offering semen packages of 25 or 50 units up to 500 units. Don’t miss out on these breed changing genetics.

This section of high percentage and purebred Gelbvieh gives you excellent genetics to produce registered seed stock or complement Angus based cows to produce a superior product with the benefits of heterosis in the calf. Keeping the heifers from this mating will make great cows because they will benefit from both heterosis and breed complementing genet-ics. Pick bulls to complement your cows and your needs plus the needs of the beef industry. You can do both and do it better with breeds that complement and bring both maternal and growth and carcass value to the mix. Enjoy!

Here is the RED version of breeds complementing and utilizing heterosis. You’ll find both purebreds and hy-brids/composites to meet your needs. When one realizes the challenge we are given by the industry; give us profitable, productive, long lasting cows AND give us beef that is satis-fying to the consumer and profitable to the industry, one soon realizes we need more than one breed and one color. Varied

environments and industry needs mean we need to utilize the best genetics from multiple breeds to produce superior genetics for the entire industry. Breeds that are selected and mated to complement and produce superior genetics in multiple traits, tested and culled without exception produces superior genetics for the entire beef industry. Enjoy!

Last year was our first year in 10 years to offer females to the public. After a smashing success we felt it necessary to supply more Money Makin’ Mommas to the public. These proven, elite, front pasture cows are exactly what this pro-gram is built on. Grandpa always said if you want to know how good the bulls are look at the cows that they are built from. We are so excited that these females offer so much potential and breed leading genetics that they are surefire

donors and donor prospects in our eyes. We love giving you the opportunity to purchase our elite females but sure hate to see them go. Again we are so sure of these females that we extend the offer to their new owner to market all the calves born this spring through the Flying H program. ENJOY!!!!

*Flying H Genetics reserves the right to 2 flushes on all regis-tered females at seller’s expense and buyer’s convenience.

Here is another first for us. We are offering our first SimAngus influenced female for sale. Ms. Peaches has been exactly that. Her proven donor record makes her a sure hitter for anyone looking to expand their genetic base. Be sure and find her sons in today’s sale, make notes on the gross dollars she generates and then decide how much value she still has. Coming to us from a very reputable breeder, Hooks Farms, we felt she could help us advance our supply of Sim-based genetics quickly and put the type of cattle we like to produce in our sale and our replacement pen. Her sire New Design 878 has been around a long time and still produces females we can be proud of. She sells open and ready to flush.

She is still living strong in lots of pedigrees here on the ranch and producing those top end genetics we all want. This young female has so much potential there is no telling where she will end up.

This is your lucky day! You get to set the price and pick the type of pickup you want to buy. I have two trucks that are exactly the same size and color. They are both four wheel drive and if you want, they can both be one ton dually. Need four doors? Ok, and let’s add all the feature comforts you want too.

The only difference—one truck is gas and the other is diesel!

Which one would you take—same money, same options, just different engines.

I’ll bet you would take the diesel—especially if they are the same price. Why? More power, torque, effi-ciency and longevity in the diesel, right. And if I can get all those extras at no cost it would be a no brainer.

With today’s current cattle prices, more power, pounds, efficiency and longevity really affect my bottom line. That is exactly why I crossbred! Crossbreed? What do you mean?

I can get more power, more pounds, greater efficiency and longevity at no additional cost so crossbreed-ing with breeds that complement each other is a no brainer.

Hybrid vigor is like replacing your gas engine with a diesel. Hybrid vigor has many benefits. Calf weaning weight is the one most cattlemen think about but, more important and more critical to profitability are the benefits of a crossbred cow over a straight bred cow. Researchers and Ranchers have documented greater calving rates (fertility) of 4% or better, calf survival to weaning of 1-2% increases, number of calves produced in a cows life time a 17% increase and longevity increases up to 38% (staying in production 2-3 years longer).

Think about it—better conception rates, more live calves at weaning and more calves per cow! That means hundreds of more dollars of profit per cow every year. And all of this by simply replacing your straight bred cows with breed complimenting crossbred cows.

We call it HETEROSIS X 2 PLUS B C. With a crossbred cow producing a crossbred calf, you get to utilize the benefits of heterosis in both the cow and the calf. And, if you use proper breed selection for your crossbreeding you get breed complimenting genetics that produce superior females for the pasture and superior beef for the consumer.

At Flying H Genetics, we believe in the benefits and profits of heterosis. That’s why we promote crossbreeding to our customers. It is in their best interest because crossbreeding gives you the benefits of a diesel engine, with no additional purchase price.

Gas or Diesel? Straight or Crossbred? The choice is easy and profitable!

Because of the interest in, need for, and importance of correctly identifying bulls to be used on first calf heifers, Flying H Genetics has developed a “5 stAR systeM”. This system ranks bulls we believe (and guarantee) will work on heifers and not cause above normal calving difficulty due to size and shape of the calf.

A “One Star” bull should work on larger, well-developed heifers with above average pelvic measurements.

“Three Star” bulls increase the comfort level and degree of calving ease and can be used in most heifer development situations.

“Five Star” heifer bulls give exceptional calving ease with little assistance expected, except in abnormal presentations, etc.

All bulls offered by Flying H Genetics that qualify to be guaranteed as heifer bulls will be identified by the 5 Star System.

Even this system cannot guarantee every heifer bred to these bulls will calve unassisted. There are at least 16 different criterion that affect calving ease

with birth weight being the largest factor. Other factors like sex of calf, shape of calf and size of bone, condition score of heifer, age of heifer, feed protein level, weather prior to and during calving, the heifers genetics for calving ease and birth weight, gestation length, heterosis, pelvic opening size and presen-tation of calf all affect calving ease.

The 5 Star System is not perfect but it will eliminate most problems caused by the genetics of the bulls breeding the heifers. And—if we find one that doesn’t work and he is guaranteed for calving ease on heifers with our 5 Star Sys-tem—we will replace him with another bull of your choice with full credit from the original bull. It’s not perfect, but it is one of the best systems and guaran-tees you’ll find anywhere.

Questions, call Dick at 308-962-6500 or Kyle at 308-962-6940.

Flying H Genetics has offered to share death and injury losses suffered during the first breading season with customers for years. After some confusion over the old warranty and interest by many customers to cover the full cost of their purchases at a reasonable cost, we have initiated the following new warranty.

cOveRAge/liMitAtiOnsThe coverage of this warranty is limited to the first breeding season or a maximum of 6 months from the date of purchase, unless other arrange-ments are made ahead of time. Indemnity under this warranty covers all death and loss-of-use injuries except those caused by negligence or willful misconduct or mistreatment of the bulls covered. Replacement value will be limited to actual purchase cost of the Flying H Genetics bull covered minus any salvage value or other compensation received by the customer.

clAiMsAll claims for death or injury must be reported to Flying H Genetics within 24 hours of discovery and a complete diagnosis by a licensed veterinarian must be reported.

INjUREDIf the injury is not life threatening or permanent and the bull can be returned to service, Flying H Genetics will work with the customer to supply a replace-ment bull to use at no cost, until the original bull can be returned to service.

LOSS DUE TO INjURYIf the injury is permanent and prevents the bull from returning to service, Flying H Genetics will supply a replacement bull as close to the original bull’s type and quality as possible to complete the first breeding season. At the end of the breeding season, the customer can keep the bull as the

replacement bull as fulfillment of this warranty or return him to Flying H Genetics and receive credit on a replacement in next year’s sale. The credit will equal the price of the original bull minus salvage value if any from the original bull. The customer agrees to provide humane care and obtain maximum salvage value from the injured bull. This guarantees the customer a bull to get their cows bred and full compensation for the purchase price of the bull through a replacement they get to pick and price.

lOss dUe tO deAtHWhen a Flying H Genetics bull dies between the date of purchase and the end of the first breeding season, through no fault of the customer as described above, Flying H Genetics will supply a replacement bull, as close to the original bull’s type and quality as possible, to finish out the breeding season. At the end of the breeding season, the customer can either keep the replacement bull as fulfillment of this warranty or return him to Flying H Genetics and receive credit on a replacement in next year’s sale. This credit will equal the purchase price of the original bull minus any compensation received if insured by an insurance company. This guarantees the customer a bull to get their cows bred and full compensation for the purchase price of the bull through a replacement they get to pick and price.

cOstCost for the death and injury warranty will be 5% of purchase price, due at the time of purchase. If a customer chooses not to cover their animal against death and injury, they assume all loss due to death or injury of their bull. This warranty does not affect other customer services like the customer satisfac-tion and calving ease guarantees that all Flying H Genetics bulls carry.
