EPDs:
The EPDs printed in this sale book were taken from the Amer-
ican Angus Association as of March 23, 2017. EPDs are now updated
weekly by the American Angus Association, so current EPDs may vary
from the EPD printed in the sale book.
Registration Certificates:
A transferred registration certificate will be
provided for each animal that sells.
AI Certificates:
NO AI certificates will be furnished for females bred
to bulls not owned by the seller.
Genetic Defects:
Each animal in the sale will have a current status
for AM, CA, NH and DD listed in this sale book or an update sheet
which will be available sale day if that status has changed since the
publication of the sale book. GMAA is now accepting cattle into sales
regardless of their genetic defect status as long as they are registered
with the American Angus Association. Potential carriers are denoted
with a “P” behind the notation of the genetic defect of which they are
a potential carrier, i.e. AMP, CAP, DDP and NHP. The absence of any
such notations means the animal is not regarded as a potential carrier
because of the pedigree.
Liability:
Neither the Great Meadows Angus Association, the sellers,
the sale managers, nor any other person connected with the sale
assumes any liability - legal or otherwise.

This sale is being conducted under the current
