Rawes Ranches 40th Annual Charolais Bull Sale 2023

Welcome to Rawes Ranches Ltd.

We would personally like to invite you to our family’s 40th Annual Performance Tested Charolais Bull Sale. Thank you for taking the time to review our program and our offering. As we prepare to market these bulls to the industry, we are confident in their genetic ability to bring you profits in all stages of the production cycle whether you are a cow/calf operation, a background feeder, or running a finishing lot selling retail carcasses. This is reflected in our customer confidence over the years and that 88% of our bulls in last year’s sale went to repeat buyers. Our catalogue is a good-honest reflection of our program. We don’t adjust our data to fall in line with current trends just because they’re fashionable. We are not ashamed to print the numbers as they are because we know that they represent what has led to our success in the industry. Our program has a long-standing reputation for high-gaining, good-quality feeder cattle. In the last twenty-plus years, with advancements in technology, we have had the opportunity to test for carcass quality and feed efficiency. This year, our purebred heifers that were not chosen as breeding replacements were harvested, and the results show not only exceptionally high carcass yield but also 95% grading AAA. We look forward to Charolais cattle being recognized more and more for high carcass yield and AAAs and breaking the stereotype that British cattle are the ideal carcass animal. Although performance testing has been our focus over the years, it comes secondary to producing sound, functional cattle with longevity. With this in mind, you can be confident that the bulls you select have top quality genetics not only in performance but also in longevity. As you look through the sale offering, you will see that bulls are catalogued and will be sold in birth order. This is not your typical purebred sale with the top end stacked at the front of a sale order. We are very proud of the fact that these bulls have the depth of quality and performance, front to back, to sell in this format.

We encourage you to tour through our bull pens prior to sale day and see them in a relaxed environment. Make a healthy list of bulls that meet your needs and buy with confidence knowing that each bull is backed by our program, our integrity, and our guarantee.

We value your personal attendance at our sale and look forward to working with you. If you are unable to be at the sale, please give Philip, John, or Marie a call and we will gladly assist with your selection and personally handle your sight-unseen purchase.

Take confidence in our program and let our family’s commitment to the beef industry benefit you!

The No Nonsense PROGRAM

Rawes Ranches was established near Strome, Alberta in the mid-forties by Herman and Elaine Rawe. In the early fifties, the cattle industry moved toward more feeding of cattle for the slaughter market, and our family responded with an expansion of our commercial Hereford-based cow herd. That is where our focus began; to raise cattle that excel in the auction barn, the feedlot, and at the meat counter.

Always looking for a better way to do things, Herman started using Charolais bulls in 1957 and was a founding member of the Canadian Charolais Association. From the beginning, our feedlot involvement and fat cattle marketing, alongside building a registered Charolais cow herd, kept our ideas in focus. This naturally led to a “No Nonsense” Program founded on COMMON SENSE, CONSISTENCY, AND PROFITABILITY. Today, this focus remains the same. Simply put, the cattle must meet the needs of the marketplace they were designed for. Rawe Ranch cattle are produced and sold with honesty and integrity. We don’t have banners, ribbons, or trophies; we have a long-standing program, satisfied customers, and functional cattle that excel in all areas of production having been proven in the industry.

All sale bulls are ONE IRON, bred and raised on the ranch. We have personally attended to our Charolais breeding and herd management for FIFTY-ONE YEARS. The purebred herd was established in 1972 and today undergoes annual evaluation and replacement by our own females sired by our own ranch-raised bulls without the possibility of setbacks from outside genetics. In doing so we have CONCENTRATED OUR GENETICS in the areas we feel are most important: feet and longevity, temperament, performance, and carcass quality.

The cows CALVE ON PASTURE during May and June. Today, 23% of our breeding herd are 8 years and older, 61% are between 3 and 7 years, and 16% are first-calvers. The consistency in our program is proven by these older productive cows that have not been pampered, never had their feet trimmed, and calved unassisted every year. There is no distinction in management practices between our purebred and commercial cow herds.

A large herd and RIGID CULLING PROGRAM ensure that only the top end of our productive animals continue in the program leading to steady advancement year over year. We don’t sell replacement females or proven cows from the herd. They either work for us, or they don’t work at all, they’re functional or they go! Yearling heifers not selected for breeding and bulls not selected for sale are finished for harvest under our feeding and management. Each year we obtain performance and grading information to EVALUATE AND IMPROVE our genetics. We have always strived for growthy cattle; however, we realized very early on that performance achieved through growth alone (high frame score) was not sustainable. For growth to have any value it must be combined with rapid fleshability and the PRODUCTION OF RED MEAT. This understanding is the foundation of our program and has developed a genetic package with proven performance in all stages of the production cycle. Our bulls are raised under the same principles as the cow herd. They are May-June born, calved on pasture, weaned in November, and undergo a full 15 months of evaluation to sell between 18-20 months of age after they have MATURED AND ARE READY TO GO TO WORK. They aren’t pushed to sell as yearlings. All bulls are developed for our annual bull sale; we don’t sell by private treaty nor consign to other sales. We believe in letting our cattle sell in the COMPETITIVE MARKET and letting you, the commercial cattleman, be the judge.

Rawes Ranches has maintained a focus on Performance Testing throughout our time in the cattle business. In 1990, our sale was the first in Canada to print EPDs in a sale catalogue. The addition of carcass data came in 2000 and has since been displayed as an EPD value.

And it all starts at calving time when data is first collected on the animal. Our second-calvers and mature cow herd calve on grass in May through June. We like to calve cows on carry over grass (barring a drought). The cows are moderate framed “Charolais” cows. After coming through the winter and into calving season, they are in their working clothes; not carrying a lot of extra flesh and weighing roughly 1500-1600 pounds. It’s the norm for these cows to have calves weighing 100-110 pounds. A lot of that weight is in extra length. We are not ashamed to print what the scale reads. We believe the shape of the calf is, for the most part, more important than the weight of the calf. Rarely do we ever bring a cow in unless it’s for malpresentation. Like most operations today, we simply don’t have time for unnecessary problems.

TRUE GENETIC POTENTIAL

Performance Information Explained

In order to use this data to its full potential, it is important to have an understanding of the terminology and collection methods. Take the opportunity to become familiar with the information below, so you are able to make a better-informed decision about the bull that will fit your needs.

BW The recorded birth weight of the calf when born.

SC Bulls have been scrotal measured January 2023 and all will sell with a valid semen certificate.

FS Frame Score has been calculated to assist customers with online and sight unseen purchases, situations where in-person appraisals are not possible. Call us if you have any questions about frame score.

WT The live weight of bulls in mid January 2023 to be used in combination with frame score to assist customers with online and sight unseen purchases.

Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs)

EPDs incorporate the performance of the individual animal as well as the performance of its relatives. The EPDs available on these bulls have been provided by the Canadian Charolais Association and can not be compared between breeds.

BW Birth WT EPD is expressed in pounds. A smaller EPD means a lighter birth WT.

WW Weaning WT EPD is also expressed in pounds. A larger WW EPD indicates that his progeny will have higher weights at weaning (205 days).

YW Yearling WT EPD is expressed in pounds. A larger YW EPD indicates that his progeny will have higher weights at yearling (365 days).

TM Total Maternal EPD combines ½ of the weaning weight EPD and all of the milk EPD. It is expressed as pounds of calf weaned at 205 days. Larger TM EPD predicts greater weaning weights from daughters.

REA The expected difference in ribeye area of progeny in square inches. A larger number indicates that the ribeye muscle will have a larger area.

MRB The expected difference in marbling score of progeny. A larger number indicates that progeny will express a higher degree of marbling.

LY The expected difference in lean meat yield of progeny expressed as a percent. Lean yield is the percent of lean meat produced in relation to the total carcass weight. A larger number indicates a higher percentage of lean meat in the carcass and more yield grade 1 carcasses.

Sale Bull Comparative

We ran the numbers to see how our sale bulls compared to the average Charolais animal in Canada, using Canadian Charolais Association EPDs. These are the results…

BW 30% have lower BW EPDs

WW 83% have higher WW EPDs

YW 85% have higher YW EPDs

TM 63% have higher TM EPDs

REA 88% have higher REA EPDs

MRB 63% have higher MRB EPDs

LY 90% have higher LY EPDs

AAA 606D has become our main heifer bull. He has a -2.3 lb BW EPD and has sired 132 calves. He ranks in the top 1% in Canada for both Marbling and Ribeye Area EPDs; we are extremely impressed with the way he throws these top performing carcass traits into his calves.

High Gains and Superior Carcasses, we have it all! | Bold statements backed by bold facts!

The long-time Rawe Ranch slogan, “The Ranch where performance is no accident!” demonstrates a commitment to performance testing and encompasses all stages of production. While producing sound, functional cattle that are pleasing to the eye, we are continually working towards superior performance. Generations of carcass information have been measured and considered to make breeding decisions in our herd. Utilizing ultrasound and grading information allows us to breed by design, not by accident!

Current Canadian Charolais Association EPDs on the top 200 bulls in each carcass trait show:

Ribeye Area: 139 out of 200 are Rawe Ranch genetics.

Marbling: 80 out of 200 are Rawe Ranch genetics.

Lean Meat Yield: 141 out of 200 are Rawe Ranch genetics.

Grading information on our 2021 born purebred feeder heifers show over 95% graded AAA with 66% Y1 & Y2 carcasses and an average dressing yield of 60.55%. As marbling trends higher in the industry so does the potential loss of yield grade. We have maintained a balance of high marbling and high yield grade. We have designed a herd with superior carcass genetics that is backed by the data!

These 4-H steer projects, sired by our own bulls and out of our May/June calving commercial herd, are examples of the true genetic potential that runs deep in

herd. Rawe-sired calves have claimed the top Rate of Gain spots at the Flagstaff District 4-H Show consecutively for the

years. If you want high-gaining cattle that convert pounds to profit, you are at the right place!
