semen interest in every bull in this sale. We
have retained an interest in every bull since 1994. Because
it generally takes several years for a sire to be ‘discovered,’
we feel we can help our customers through various pro-
grams, ‘find’ and ‘market’ bulls that float to the top. You will
own full possession and 100% salvage value of the bull. We
are retaining the right to half the semen sales revenue from
the bull if, sometime in the future, semen sales become a
possibility. If for some reason you should sell the bull to an-
other breeder, Fink Beef Genetics still retains that 50% se-
men interest. If you purchase a partnership bull and wish to
have semen collected for your own herd use, that semen is
100% yours, unless you contact Fink Beef Genetics and we
agree to have him collected in a joint venture. If the bull is
collected in a joint venture, we split the semen production
costs and the revenue of sales on a 50/50 basis. However, if
you are not interested in collecting semen on the bull, Fink
Beef Genetics will have the right to collect the bull for their
own use and will pay expenses for collection(s). We will have
him collected at your convenience.
We have not included any actual information — except scro-
tal measurements taken the week of September 19-24,
2016. Why? Because of variations due to cooperator herds
we feel the EPDs, because of the use of high-proven sires,
are still the best information to use. When we are convinced
that all the data can be compared accurately, we will print it.
