Welcome to our 2012 Generations at Work Bull Sale

It is our pleasure to welcome and thank all of our customers past, present and future for your support and confi dence in our program. It is gratifying for our family to have customers return year after year to purchase bulls from us.

As you view each of our programs and have the opportunity to review and research the bulls that we will be offering for the sale, you will see them as a balanced, effi cient and functional set of animals aimed at improving your profi tability. While there are genetic differences in our breeding programs, we all share a similar vision of raising problem free genetically superior cattle. When you look at the bulls in this offering you will see red meat and muscle expression, not fat. Our goal is to produce cattle that are moderate in size, effi cient in function and sound in structure. These bulls are ready to go to work for you. Please take the time to look through the entire catalog as there is quality spread throughout.

Thank you for taking the time to attend and view our sale. Please feel free to contact any one of us with any questions that you may have. We look forward to visiting with you,

Full Service Sale Management

Tommy Ayres 406.531.6130Dear Cattleman,

As you look to make the best bull buying decisions, keep in mind what will help you sell your calves at a premium, as well as keeping costs down back at the ranch. A profi table year includes more live calves that grow fast and effi ciently at the side of low-maintenance, moderate framed females.

The programs and management at Vavra’s couldn’t be more aligned with your own goals. We witnessed a great set of yearling bulls, correct with rib and muscle. They are in great working condition and should come back to your corrals after breeding looking strong. The bulls as well as the cowherd at Vavra’s are exceptionally quiet and docile. And as their motto states, “Generations at Work” means just that. The Vavra’s have been building a powerful, cowman minded herd…this is their 32nd year! You get to reap the benefi ts of their tireless selection of females with longevity, as well as a focus on calving ease that does not sacrifi ce pounds and power! Cowman sense as well as all the science available (EPDs, ultra-sound and gene testing) is presented to you on April 19th to help you move forward and make bull buying decisions that will improve your bottom line for years to come. Please call me at anytime to inquire about this great offering.

Sincerely,Tommy & Cara Ayres

A Helpful Guide For Reading Our CatalogBirth Weight (BW) predicts the difference, in pounds,

for birth weight. Weaning Weight (WW): predicts the difference, in pounds, for weaning weight (adjusted to age of dam and a standard 205 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to weaning.

Yearling Weight (YW) predicts the expected difference, in pounds, for yearling weight (adjusted to standard 365 days of age). This is an indicator of growth from birth to yearling.

Milk (MK) the genetic ability of a sire’s daughters to produce milk expressed in pounds of weaning weight.

Rib Eye Area (RE) expressed in square inches of rib eye muscle area.

Marbling (MB) expressed in degrees of marbling score, a determinant of USDA Quality Grade.

Diamond Lazy J Things you should know about Diamond Lazy J Ranch 1. Fertility is our #1 priority. Every cow needs to raise a calf

on grass. Our heifers become cows when they are selected at weaning time. They are raised with winter range and protein supplement, summer range until we AI in July. NO additional supplements are given to these heifers, they are placed in our cow herd and treated as a mature cow.

2. Disposition is important. We continue to cull cows win an

aggressive behavior. Mom and the kids can take care of our cows.

3. We have been AIing for over 18 years. Our breeding rates

have consistently been over 90% including the second and third calf heifers. The frame size of our cows has been reduced to maintain fertility on grass.

Genestar Testing

GeneSTAR MVPs are by definition a “molecular breeding value” based on the effects of the specific markers in the current panel. Thus, they represent a portion of the expected underlying genes affecting the traits. By definition, an MVP is similar to an expected progeny differ-ence (EPD) from a genetic evaluation in how it is expressed. The dif-ference is that an EPD is based on phenotypic records of the animal and its relatives, whereas an MVP is derived from an animal’s geno-type only.

* The closer the MVP is to the highlighted minimum or maximum number, the more favorable the results.
