Dear Angus Friends,
Welcome to our 37th Annual Production Sale. It takes much hard work by family, friends, and custom help to put on a
sale of this magnitude and quality. We are appreciative of that support and look forward to seeing everyone on sale day to
celebrate our 64th year in business.
In 2014, we were very honored to receive the “Seedstock Commitment to Excellence Award” from the Certified Angus Beef
LLC organization. The Molitor operation intends to fulfill the confidence showed to us for this award. We see firsthand the
positive impact the CAB Brand makes through our ownership of the Lumberyard Steakhouse at Zenda beginning in 2010.
At Molitor Angus, we use genetics with the CAB qualification in mind and emphasize higher marbling and carcass weight
EPDs. We do seek to increase rib-eye area as long as it does not adversely affect birth weight and mature size.
The sale bulls are impressive and have been grown on a high roughage diet to gain about 3.15 lbs. per day. The day to day
feeding of these bulls allows us to monitor their development from weaning to sale day. Our feeding system still gives the
bulls the opportunity to compete against each other and exhibit their superior gain potential. Past customers have indicated
their satisfaction with the condition and soundness of our sale bulls.
The yearling females selling were selected because they have maternal sisters that remain in the herd. They demonstrate
the replacement quality of their cow families. The fall calving bred cows have
top genetics and are bred to LD Emblazon 999 and KG Solution 0018 with
HA Outside 3878 (Ref. B) following up as the natural service sire. A 60 day
pregnancy check was done on 02-01-16 and available on a sale supplement
sheet.
At Molitor Angus we keep abreast of all aspects of the beef industry by
having an investment in every major segment of that business. We try to
breed cattle that fill all aspects of those segments and continue to find and
use great sires that are an outcross to many Angus Bloodlines. This year’s
new bloodlines are Basin Payweight 1682.
We hope you appreciate the entire offering represented in this sale. Be
confident that you are buying cattle that are fully guaranteed by a program
that has 64 years’ experience in the Angus business.
Let us know if we can be of assistance in helping you with your selection.
We greatly appreciate your interest in our family operation.

THE 37TH ANNUAL PRODUCTION SALE
ALL CATTLE SOLD ARE FREE OF KNOWN GENETIC DEFECTS.
Dear Cattleman,
Backed by 64 years of breeding quality Angus cattle, since 1952, the Molitor family is presenting an offering in 2016 of
high-performing cattle backed by generations of calving-ease traits. As the beef industry continues to demand quality Angus
genetics, Molitor cattle shine brightly. Included in this offering is an excellent selection of herd sire candidates, dominated by
reliable calving-ease genetics, plus an outstanding group of replacement females with long-term potential. 120 bulls and 60
females will sell, including 40 yearling heifers and 20 fall calving females.
Featured sires include Basin Payweight 1682, EF Complement 8088, Jindra Double Vision, KG Solution 0018 and of course,
LD Emblazon 999, the proven Molitor herd sire who has joined the ABS Global AI Stud.
The Molitor program was established in 1952 with an emphasis on a combination of calving-ease, performance, carcass
and disposition, for an impressive EPD average. In 2014 Molitor Angus Ranch was honored with the Certified Angus Beef
Seedstock Commitment to Excellence award.
It is a pleasure and privilege to work with Mike and Richard Molitor in the presentation of this outstanding annual event. Be
prepared as the quality is up again still another notch! Please don’t hesitate to call on us at American Angus Hall of Fame if we
can be of assistance in any way. We are here to serve.
Sincerely,
Tom Burke
