Dear Friends,
We invite you to join us February 29, 2008, for The Herd Bull and Foundation
Female Sale. Never before, have we had so many true Herd Bull Prospects.
The words–Foundation Female Sale–mean just that, as we are selling our very
best. The National Junior Show will be held in Des Moines, Iowa, this year
and, as we no longer have grandchildren showing, we have gone all out to
offer a great set of show heifer prospects that will also make tremendous
brood cows.
At O’Neill Angus we have always bred for the Commercial Cattle Industry
with Emphasis on Structural Correctness, Extra Volume with Muscle and
Thickness, Pounds with Carcass Quality Without Excess Fat, Marbling in the
Meat and not Fat on the meat. Four of the most important traits are Fertility,
Excellent Udders, Longevity with Fleshing Ability. Many of our bulls are still
breeding cows at 9 to 12 years of age.
We are really excited this year as Bovigen came out with the FEED
EFFICIENCY Markers that prove these Qualities in our Cattle, along with the
Quality Grade and Tenderness markers that we have had and are extremely
high on. You can save MONEY with the Feed you will save with O’Neill
Genetics.
ONeills Expedition, the Feed Efficiency Sire, has produced even beyond
our expectations; consistently stamping his progeny. If You Like Pounds In
A Package That Combines Ribeye and Marbling Without Excess Fat, With
Fabulous Phenotype, Sound on Feet and Legs, You Will Agree!! Proven with
the DNA Markers, “Expedition” sired the Grand Champion Carcass Steer at
the 2007 NJAS. “Expedition’s” son, ONeills Encore, (Lot 1) was a sensation
in Denver, acclaimed by many to be the Heaviest Muscled, Thickest, Most
Structurally Correct Bull There! He scanned a 7.12 IMF @ 129 and 16.9 RE @
105. We sold 1/3 Interest and leased him to Genex. We will retain 1/3 and will
sell 1/3 Interest and Possession in this sale.
When I was young, I heard a speech that I have never forgotten about
opportunities in Life. When Others Walk, You Should Run and When Others
Run, You Should Walk. This Philosophy is one of the best testimonials that
I have heard. Now is the time to grow in the Cattle business. Numbers are
down and the demand for Beef will be Tremendous in the Future - Be Ready!!
We invite you to stop in and view our cattle at any time. If we can help in
any way, please give us a call. We look forward to seeing you at the sale.
Sincerely,
The O’Neill’s
Throughout the catalog you will find “CE” printed just below some of the lot

comments from the sale manager:
THE O’NEILL INFLUENCE ESCALATES!
Master breeder Jim O’Neill has built a solid foundation of O’Neill genetics by staying true to his basic principles of breeding Angus cattle
over the course of the last half century. The enduring power of O’Neill Angus genetics continues to grow and expand throughout the beef
industry with each passing year and generation. At the 2008 National Western Stock Show in Denver, cattlemen from around the world
gathered to admire ONeills Encore and ONeills Royal Lady 46 who displayed the power of their great breeding sire ONeills Expedition
who also sired the Grand Champion Carcass Steer of the National Junior Angus Show in the past year. This very special event marks an
important opportunity to acquire timeless genetics from this one-of-a-kind Angus herd that represents generation after generation of
disciplined breeding and selection for seedstock with predictability and profitability based on the basics of beef production. The terms
muscle, volume, fleshing ability, soundness of feet and legs, fertility, balanced udders, performance and carcass merit have always been
a regular part of Jim O’Neill’s vocabulary and he has been breeding and selecting for these traits long before any of them became catch
phrases or industry fads. As new technologies continue to emerge, the linebred consistency of O’Neill genetics has been re-identified
through GeneSTAR® DNA testing. The influence of O’Neill Angus genetics can be felt around the world including dominant individuals that
have left numerous descendants throughout the United States, Canada, Argentina, Denmark, Australia, New Zealand and other parts of
the world.

The proven cow families that comprise the O’Neill Angus herd were formed with a very select original base of females which include
the foundation Delia and Eraline families that continue to endure the test of time. The influence of these tribes was enhanced with the
inclusion of outstanding females from other important families to bring in new elements including the Royal Ladys, the Blackcap Ladys
and the Rachels among others. These original ingredients have been skillfully molded and refined over time by the artistic hand of Jim
O’Neill, creating a linebred Angus herd with precision predictability in each of these basic traits that he has so carefully crafted.
The acquisition of the Pathfinder Sire known as 72E more than 30 years ago, would serve as a major cornerstone of the O’Neill program.
From the day that Happyvale Blackcap G 72E was purchased by Jim O’Neill, he has always believed him to be the best Angus bull of
his era. He would go on to sire the great Pathfinder Dam ONeills Eraline 42 who in turn produced the international sire and proven
Pathfinder Sire ONeills Renovator and his great full sisters. They came to represent the best of the O’Neill foundation carcass sire Premier
Independence KN. The genetics of each of these truly unique and outstanding individuals have been woven into the fabric of the O’Neill
herd over and over again through the course of the past several decades. Jim O’Neill’s extensive linebreeding program has truly become
an O’Neill trademark. Today, linebred O’Neill Angus seedstock represent the touchstone of Jim O’Neill’s breeding principles which apply to
the basic science of genetics blended with the creativity of a world class artist and the courage and determination of a fearless pioneer.

The endless array of famous O’Neill Angus bulls and females is impossible to completely document in the limited space of this sale
catalog. They have excelled by virtually every measurement available and in many ways that are difficult, if not impossible to measure.
They include performance and carcass leaders, showring champions and valued foundation seedstock from many Angus breeders.
Most importantly, they include cattle that make a profit by excelling in the basics, a goal that Jim O’Neill has followed for more than half
of a century. The overwhelming influence of O’Neill Angus genetics on the entire Angus breed and the beef industry as a whole is nearly
impossible to fully appreciate or comprehend. The birth of ONeills Expedition and his fantastic son ONeills Encore can well prove to be
the greatest achievements of the O’Neill program to date as the industry looks forward to the next half of a century. These two great
individuals are destined to propel O’Neill Angus genetics to new heights and will no doubt lead the programs of their new owners into
echelons of Angus advancement that have yet to be seen.
It is a special pleasure and privilege for each of us at the American Angus Hall of Fame to have worked with Jim and Ardyce O’Neill over
the years. Their undying love and commitment to the Angus breed is proudly carried forward by their son J.C. O’Neill whose inherent
talent and masterful Angus husbandry have grown to be an integral component in the day to day operation of the O’Neill program. We
invite you to draw on the O’Neill family’s wisdom and insight into this herd, or feel free to contact us at the American Angus Hall of Fame,
if we can be of assistance in any way. We are here to serve.

Oneills renovator
This proven Pathfinder Sire has a unique and proven combination
of genetics that excel in fleshing ability, maternal strength and carcass
quality with added muscle and retail product, consistently ranking
among the top retail product bulls of the entire Angus breed over the
course of the last two decades.
This sensational sire is the most prominent son of the famous
Pathfinder Dam ONeills Eraline 42 by the O’Neill foundation Pathfinder
Sire Premier Independence KN, and his full siblings include the famous
ONeills Lady Eraline and ONeills Eraline 155. This famous sire is
represented in the tabulations of nearly every individual in this sale.
ONeills Renovator was the sensation of the 1985 World Angus Forum
in Edmonton Alberta, Canada where he teamed with his maternal
sister’s son, ONeills Excalibur, as the Grand Champion Pair of Bulls,
launching him into the forefront of the Angus world internationally.
ONeills Renovator combines tremendous thickness, volume, fleshing
ability and superior feet and legs and the ability to transmit these traits
to his progeny that has led to his semen being used throughout the
United States as well as being exported into South America, Australia,
New Zealand, Finland, Denmark, Canada and other countries.
He is considered by many to be the bull that changed Australian
Angus genetics as a heavily used foundation sire where his EPDs rank
among the very best compared to numerous other prominent sires.
The progeny of ONeills Renovator have dominated shows, sales and
performance tests on a global scale over the past two decades.
His dominant breeding ability features the ability to transmit superior
carcass traits with the strength of his soundness, structure and longevity,
marking him as one of the great bulls in breed history.
The sensational daughters of ONeills Renovator demonstrate
additional thickness, with extra volume, fleshing ability and fertility and
those traits have been consistently concentrated in the O’Neill pedigrees
with a disciplined linebreeding program.
This exceptional female who was born in 1977 is a fifth generation descendant of the
foundation ONeills Eraline cow, Eisa Erica Edith 51, an outstanding female that lived to be 19
years of age and produced 21 calves. This great female is widely regarded as the all-time
greatest daughter of the O’Neill foundation Pathfinder Sire Happyvale Blackcap G 72E, and
her dam was an outstanding producing daughter of the O’Neill foundation Pathfinder Sire
Marshall Pride 514.
ONeills Eraline 42 was a fabulous female, being extremely easy-fleshing and heavy
milking as a two-year-old and throughout the course of her life. She was extremely long
bodied, massively deep and had excellent feet and legs. Her unequaled production records
qualified her as a Pathfinder Dam with four progeny weaning ratios of 119 and two yearling
ratios of 122.
Jim O’Neill has concentrated the elite genetics of this great female in his herd through a
disciplined and concentrated linebreeding program in an effort to include her in pedigrees
as many times as possible in order to concentrate the great fleshing ability, fertility, structure
correctness and milk that she possessed. This intense linebreeding program has heightened
the intensity of these important traits while demonstrating genetic purity.
