EPD and Performance Information
EPD’s are current as of February 15, 2015 and are
provided by the American Angus Association.
Complete performance and pedigree information is
available on request.
Terms
All animals sell under the standard terms and
conditions of the American Angus Association—see
www.angus.org. Announcements from the sale block
on sale day take precedence over information in the
catalog. All animals become the full responsibility of
the purchaser at the fall of the gavel.
Transportation and Insurance
Truckers believed to reliable will be on hand
to deliver purchases. Assistance in arranging
transportation of purchases is available. Insurance
can be purchased at the settlement desk.
Birth Weight and Calving Ease
A review of the “Across Breed EPDs” created by the
Meat Animal Research Center reveals that a +4 or
+5 BW EPD for Angus is equal to a “0” BW EPD for
most other breeds. While other breeds recommend
their “0” BW EPD bulls for use on heifers, we
recommend the +4 and above BW EPD Angus bulls
for use on cows. If you are selecting bulls to use on
cows, these bulls are generally more economical to
buy than the lower BW EPD bulls. If you are buying
bulls to breed to heifers, it is generally accepted in
the Angus breed that Angus bulls with BW EPDs of
+2.0 and less have acceptable calving ease potential
for heifers. Nevertheless, we recommend that these
bulls be sampled on heifers to determine their true
calving ease potential for your herd before breeding
to a large number of heifers.
Animal Health
All bulls are tested negative for Brucellosis and
TB. Health papers will be available for interstate
shipment.
Breeding Guarantee
Fertility- All bulls have passed semen tests and
breeding soundness examinations. Scrotal
measurements are available on request. All bulls
are fertility guaranteed as recommended by the
American Angus Association in the Sale Terms and
Conditions. Claims for nonbreeders must be made
promptly and within 4 months of the bull being put
in service and no later than December 31, 2015.
Genetic Defects
All bulls are free, by pedigree, of all genetic defects
that have DNA tests available that are monitored by
the American Angus Association.
Liability
Persons attend this sale at their own risk.
Catalog

We used Full Bore for an ET mating on Benfield Queen L 607 to
produce outcross genetics from two lines of cattle that excel in grass
based programs. Full Bore 730 was the high selling bull in 2011
from the Cole Creek Angus herd, a program devoted to cattle work
that work on a native grassland environment. From one of the top
cows at Cole Creek, Full Bore combines a strong maternal heritage
with the ability to sire muscle and growth.

A true outcross bull, 4449 was the high performing bull among an impressive group of 4 embryo transfer full brothers by
Full Bore x Queen L 607. We want a hundred cows like his pathfinder dam! Her lifetime production record is 95 for birth
and 103 for weaning and yearling on 7 natural calves. Lot 1 is an impressive and well balanced individual that combines the
important economic traits for outstanding herd sire potential.

The Full Bore flush from 607 produced 4 bulls that were
consistent in their phenotype. We don’t like surprises so we
expect the ET calves to look alike. However, that does not
happen unless the desired phenotype is stacked for many
generations. Lot 2 is a bull that will sire pounds and muscle.
His females should be fertile, easy keeping cows that excel on
grass.

bull and outcross genetics from currently used popular bloodlines. Lot 3 is wide sprung and broad topped with moderate
bone. If you want to maintain a disciplined mature size, 4421 will do the job and produce economical females.

Benfield Queen L 607 cycled early for ET work
and bred back quickly for an early natural calf that
is Lot 5. We consider 4410 another good outcross
prospect by 607 from the Canadian bred Soo Line
Motive 9016. Motive is siring low birth weight cattle
with a quiet disposition, plenty of volume, moderate
bone, and adequate growth. 4410 is an attractive,
clean fronted and long bodied bull with a moderate
birth weight and above average growth. He keeps
getting better. We appreciate this bull now more
than any time in the past year.

WRA Mirror Image T10 topped our 2008 sale when ½ interest and fall possession sold to Eddie Shelton’s Diamond S
Farms of Union Hall, Virginia. The more time goes by, the more we appreciate Mirror Image because he does so many things
well. Mirror Image is a low birthweight bull that sires excellent performance in progeny that are structurally correct with
volume, base width, and muscle. But most importantly, his daughters are outstanding. They are functional, fault free, easy
fleshing females with beautiful udders. They defy conventional wisdom which states that low input cattle lack performance
because their disciplined mature size allows them to have early growth—when growth is important. Eddie Shelton put it best
when he said “Mirror Image improves everything you breed him to”.

This young T10 son is out of an outstanding 9 year old Pathfinder daughter of Aristocrat M1 with a current production
record of 8 @ 104. She is a stout made, deep bodied, easy fleshing cow—the kind that keeps you in the cow business.
Combining T10 with 743R should mean that lot 25 will sire an impressive set of daughters.

We purchased Whitley to use on females that trace to Substance and his dam, 1105. He was the top performing individual
in his calf crop and possessed a sterling maternal heritage. He is doing a great job as the 12 sons in this year’s sale will
demonstrate. This cross mates the best genetic lines developed in the Benfield and White Ridge herds. Whitley consistently
sires extra power, base width, volume, capacity, and muscle in a free moving and moderate birth weight package. He is the
product of 3 generations of sires produced and retained for use in the White Ridge herd. The Whitley x Substance cross is a
truly unique pedigree that will be a mainstay of the Benfield program for years to come.

Lot 15 is a calving ease prospect that is well balanced, structurally sound, and above average for performance. He is out of
a beautiful Substance daughter from a prolific bloodline. His maternal brother by Coleman Regis 904 was the top yearling
weight bull in 2013 and topped the sale at $8000. His dam has produced three calves with a weaning ratio of 101 and a
yearling ratio of 105. The grandam raised 14 consecutive calves with a 105 weaning ratio!

dam is a beautiful daughter of Image Maker and a full sister to Benfield Substance 8506 and Benfield Elliott 029. This bull
drew our attention since the day he was born. A moderate birth weight bull and calving ease prospect, he was one of the top
performance bulls with a ratio of 104 for weaning and yearling. Don’t overlook this docile, moderate framed herd bull with a
unique but proven outcross pedigree!

Lot 17 is a structurally sound, free moving, and long sided Whitley son with slightly more frame. His wedge shaped dam is
a productive daughter of Image Maker and full sister to Substance. 4415 is a full brother in blood to Lot 16. This stacked
pedigree of Whitley x Image Maker x Java x Genesis x 6807 stacks many of herd bulls we have used to build the Benfield herd.
Lot 17 is a complete sire and balanced trait bull that is an excellent choice to improve commercial herds.

Here is a massively powerful and moderate framed Whitley son with a tremendous amount of depth, volume and total
mass. Out of a super three year old Substance daughter, he is a rare combination of power and performance with moderate
birth genetics. His weaning and yearling ratios were 105. You won’t find many yearling bulls that look like 4430. A great
herd bull prospect!

dam has a weaning ratio of 102 on her first two calves. Lot 21 stacks three proven sires on the maternal side that are big
contributors to the Benfield cow herd. I like the clean bone, balance, structural soundness, quiet disposition and above
average muscle of Lot 21, all in combination with a low birth EPD.

B18 is a natural calf out of 115P, the most influential cow our program has ever produced. Maternal brothers to B18
include the herd sires Mirror Image T10 and Cedar Run plus the AI sires Vindicator at Select Sires and Walker at Genex.
115P records 8 calves @ 94 BWR, 8 @ 105 WWR, and 7 @106 YWR. B18 has exploded since weaning and is now a
tremendously impressive individual—long bodied, heavy muscled, and easy keeping, with style and correctness. Like his
maternal brothers, B18 is a herd bull.

This young Treasure 129 son is out of an excellent 2 year old Walker daughter. Walker topped our 2011 sale when 2/3
interest sold for $15,000 to Genex, Trowbridge Angus, and Whitestone Farms. Walker has become especially popular in
South America, as over 50,000 units of semen sold to South America in 2014. The combination of Treasure 129 and Walker
is a good one.

The combination of Treasure 129 and T10 consistently produces moderate framed, attractive, heavy muscled, low
birthweight prospects. B13 is no exception. His outstanding dam records 2 @ 97 BWR and 2 @ 104 WWR. Calving ease
potential with performance, muscle, soundness, and maternal value are all found in B13.

old cow with a BWR of 90 on 11 calves. More importantly, she is the dam of 115P, making her the grandam of T10, Cedar
Run, Vindicator, and Walker. Her Topper son was a feature of our 2014 sale, selling to Diamond S Farms of Union Hall,

We were able to use Ginger Hill Treasure 804 naturally for a short period of time prior to our purchase of his son, Ginger
Hill Treasure 129. As a result, there are three sons of 804 in the sale, including the outstanding lot 37, WRA Treasure
B2. An outcross to popular Angus genetics, 804 is a rare breeding piece that excels in calving ease, muscle, and maternal
efficiency. His daughters display a near ideal phenotype and work well in the all grass, fescue based program at Ginger Hill.

ease, his -2.4 BW EPD and pedigree stacked with low birthweight sires makes his calving ease potential a good bet. His

This high performance (108 WWR, 108 YWR) outcross prospect is a paternal brother to the $10,000 high selling bull from
the 2013 Ginger Hill sale, purchased by Van Dyke Angus in Montana. As you would expect, B2 offers so much more than
performance. He is wide based and heavy muscled, with big testicles. The low input—high production maternal potential he
represents could mean that B2 is a bull to use for years to come.

Substance is eight generations of Benfield breeding and the product of an extended line of easy keeping, fertile, and high
performing cows with longevity. He is a dominant sire and a major part of our breeding program. In addition, he is being
used in other leading Angus herds across the country. The Substance daughters are impressive. They are fertile, capacious,
big volume and easy keeping females with perfect udders and plenty of milk. They are short hair cattle that shed quickly.
Substance was bred for all the “convenience traits” that let the cattle work for you. He represents our balanced trait
approach to producing profitable Angus genetics for our commercial customers. Owned with Lindskov-Thiel, T& J Cattle,
Ellingson Angus and Genex Cooperative. Semen available from Genex.

weight at 1412 pounds! He is wide based, deep bodied, docile and heavy muscled. His Tracker 458 dam is a broody, easy

The cost of raising replacement females puts a high value on a productive cow that lasts a decade. The dam of 4446 is an
example with her 11th consecutive calf at side this spring and a weaning ratio of 101 on her first 10 calves. Likewise, the
grandam raised 12 consecutive calves at a 104 ratio. Lot 42 is a good, low birth weight, and slightly larger framed son of

Reality was the pick of Select Sires from a group of impressive ET calves by S Chisum 6175 out of Benfield Edella 1105,
also the dam of Substance. We believe Reality is a true balanced trait bull that does everything well and will produce cattle
with high economic merit. His first calves have a touch more frame with extra growth and performance. Reality is a wide
based bull with an exceptionally deep quarter. Select Sires has commented that Reality may be the best footed bull in their
lineup.

Benfield Chisum 8211 is a full brother to Reality that we nicknamed Clark. He was the high performing bull in the
Chisum flush of Benfield Edella 1105. True to his individual record, Clark has consistently sired more performance than
any bull we have ever used. Lot 45 is no exception with great individual performance from birth to yearling. He is a stout,
thick made, and heavy muscled bull from an outstanding pathfinder daughter of Kona. A maternal brother by Apex Windy

muscled. 4447 won the trifecta at Benfield as the high weaning weight bull, the top performing bull on test, and the high
yearling weight bull at 1463 pounds! His dam and grandam are pathfinders and we consider them two of our best cows ever.

Lot 47 is a direct son of S Chisum 6175. We have primarily focused our use of Chisum through Reality, Clark , and their
8 full sisters. We like the cattle and program of the Spickler Ranch and wanted to incorporate Chisum as an outcross sire to
our genetics. Lot 47 is a good balanced trait son of Chisum by a three year old daughter of Game Day. A maternal brother
to 4420 by Regis was a featured lot in our bull sale last year.

A feature of our 2010 sale, Vindicator sold to Select Sires as
an outcross calving ease prospect. His progeny have performed
as predicted, confirming that Vindicator is an outcross calving
ease bull that sires excellent performance. His legacy will be
made, however, by his outstanding daughters. They are moderate
framed, feminine, wedge shaped, easy keeping young cows that
excel in low input, grass based production systems.
Bobby Grove of White Ridge Angus was
presented with the Virginia Angus Association
Outstanding Seedstock Producer of 2014
award.

078 is one of the most phenotypically impressive bulls we
have seen-sound structured, wide based, heavy muscled and big
ribbed with tremendous balance and eye appeal. His sons were
stout, masculine, growth prospects while his heifers were roomy,
feminine, and attractive. The outcross genetics he provides only
makes him more appealing.
