that way A- it brings the most money, and B- it only gets bred to the elite brood cows of the country with flushes-- which better allows for superior calves to be born...  down the road= that allows for open market distribution to everyone else.

Why is I believe semen only going to be available in auction?
  This is amazing,  all the hype on this bull and a person has to wonder for what?  Unless your looking to breed long sided cattle that run down hill I'm not even sure why you would have noticed the sign about it being at auction.  People need to realize this is nothing more than a promotion strategy designed to drive demand up.  The bull has got LITTLE nuts and with the care that he's had his entire life just ain't good enough.  The cow he's out of is straight up a good one and this calf goes to bat for "bim" of just how average these cattle are in the ones I've seen. Where are the flush mates heifers to him lets insist on seeing them first before we spend 25 dollars a unit let alone high prices. Bim and walone mother obviously isn't to consistant considering them bulls are nothing alike and unfortunately neither are the total pkg. I believe is too long to sire competitive steers and why would you want flat ribbed, low fronted females out of a little nutted bull that can't be dusplayed for over an hr and half .  As far as semen at auction. I'm pretty sure they sold semen on blaze of glory last year at auction and just as soon as one of these promoters has one of their buddies  go online and spend 250$ for unproven semen out of a bull that was so bad then there's enough suckers out there to think omg I gotta get some too.  When instead they could by semen on the original Heatwave that was 20x better than bog ever hoped to be..  So don't buy into this tactic when by doing so only tells promoters they can just bring whatever they have raised to promote instead of a good one.  I know this will probably hurt some feelings but stand face to face to me and look me in the eye and tell me this ones good and ill show what I Believe..

I Believe was one of the most popular bulls in Denver this year, undoubtedly he will be in good demand for a rookie bull that hasn't frozen semen yet.  High Demand + low supply = $$$
I appreciate how Wade does this.  if you have a cow you want to flush and are 20th on the list and he can only fulfill 10 orders you are out of luck.  Put it up for auction and let the buyers determine price.  Remember Price does not determine quality, it determines OWNERSHIP!!!
