WELCOME

On behalf of Cockburn Red Angus, we would like to welcome you to the Cockburn/Merit bull sale. We would also like to thank all of our buyers and bidders from the past sales, your support is greatly appreciated. 2015 was an exciting year for the beef business as we saw many of the highest prices ever paid for calves as well as cull cows and bulls. Although prices have leveled off the market still looks strong for the future and purchasing a top quality herd sire will remain very important to raise the calves that will bring you top dollar. Our bulls are developed with longevity in mind. They are fed to meet their potential to emphasize on muscle development, not to over fatten and jeopardize their longevity and fertility. The bulls will all be fertility tested and guaranteed breeders. We are very excited about the group of bulls we have to offer this year and we strongly believe they are our best and most uniform group to date. There is a bull to meet everyone’s needs, cow bulls with lots of performance and easy calving heifer bulls to let you sleep easy. We make our living solely from our cattle. We have built around strong cow families emphasizing on sound feet and legs, thick easy doing cattle with good udders, and herd sires with muscle, performance and do ability as well as calving ease. Our purebred cows are run on native grass alongside our commercial cows with no special pampering or creep feed. We believe our cattle should work harder than we do and we cull strictly to ensure we stay on track. We invite you to join us on March 28th at Johnstone Auction Mart in Moose Jaw, come presale for lunch, refreshments and to view the bulls. If you are unable to attend the sale, please feel free to contact myself or any of our sales staff to help you with your order. We will be sure to find a bull to suit your needs and we guarantee your satisfaction. For any questions or to tour the bull pen or cow herd feel free to call. I look forward to visiting with you.

CJW 411B - SON OF BREAK OUT 114Y

ADJ 365 DAY WT: 1225 lbs

Breakout was the high selling bull in the 2012 SSS bull sale. We purchased him on the strength of his sire and the maternal strength of his dam. She is one of the most impressive cows in the very deep SSS cow herd. Breakout excels in siring females that are the kind we all look for. They are correct, big volumed and great uddered. His first daughters are proving their worth and weaned some of our top calves this year, including Red Cockburn Cora 312A who’s the dam of feature bull, “Chrome”, Lot #2. Where Breakout really shines is his ability to sire females like this but also bull calves that are stout, big hipped, great footed and in demand. His sons have been our top and high selling sire group the past two years and this year’s might just be the best yet. We have never released any semen on Breakout in the past but we are excited to offer two exclusive packages of 20 doses each in this year’s bull sale. This will be the only Semen sold for the 2016 breeding season so don’t miss out on an exciting proven herd bull.

Express is a new bull we purchased from Jacobson Red Angus in Minnesota. We purchased him because we liked his power, rib, structural soundness and to add some new genetics. We also liked the maternal strength in his pedigree as he comes from a long line of popular donor cows on both sides of his pedigree. We are very impressed with his first calf crop, they are very uniform with lots of calving ease, yet muscle and growth. We had the misfortune of losing express in his first breeding season, so take advantage of his sons as we have very limited semen so there will not be many more in the future. We plan to carry on the Express bloodline through his feature son Lot# 2 “Chrome” as we feel he has a lot to offer.

His daughters are also proving their worth but with the combination with New Trend 22D and Mulberry that is no surprise. A son was a feature and high selling bull in last year’s sale at $13 250 to CF Cattle.

Ribeye 308U is a bull we are very proud to have bred and raised. He was our high selling bull in our 2009 sale to Soo-line for $30 000. Then as a two-year-old he was the feature lot in their dispersal sale and sold for $70 000. His sons were our high selling sire group for many years and due to the demand for more we have some in this year’s sale. Ribeye’s ability to sire cattle that are easy doing and have superb depth and power is rare. His daughters have also been proving their worth by weaning many of our top calves every year and also by them being so easy fleshing.

Heavy Duty 518C is a bull we think a lot of. You have to admire the power and thickness he possess, while still being very athletic and free in his movement. He comes by his power honestly as his dam is just that, a powerful cow. She is huge ribbed, big hipped and very good udderd. We have several daughters of hers in our herd including 509X, the damn of lot 3. With the combination of 340U and Breakout we believe Heavy Duty will have a bright future. We would like to retain a 1/3 semen interest in him.

Chrome 560C is a bull that is very tough to fault. He is very nice fronted, deep bodied, has lots of muscle and the deep red color as an added bonus. He has a very good dark foot and can really get out and move. His performance is great as well, starting out at 79 lbs. out of a first calf heifer and weighing just shy of 900 lbs. in early October. His sire is a bull we purchased from Jacobson Red Angus in Minnesota and we are very excited with his calves. One of the best things about Chrome is the cow family he comes from. His Grand dam 443P one of the most prolific cows in the breed. She is the dam of Ribeye 308U as well as 16 daughters in our herd, a $30 000 bred heifer and several other herd bulls including 3 at Wilbar Cattle Co. one at South View Ranch and one for Breault Ranching. Chromes dam 312A is an exceptional female as well. We had several offers to sell her as a calf and a bred but decided to keep her and glad we did. We feel Chrome puts it all together as he has an outcross pedigree to most, he combines low birth with explosive growth and comes from a phenomenal cow family. We would like to use him in our program and are retaining a 1/3 semen interest.

Riot is a very stout, moderate framed Breakout son. He is very thick throughout, yet is smooth shouldered and nice fronted. His dam 509X a maternal sister to lot 1, is proving to be a top producing cow with two daughters in our herd including one of our top breds this year but we feel Riot is her best effort yet.

521C is a bull we think a lot of. He is very stout with a big rib, hip and top. His dam is a very nice cow and did an excellent job on 521C, as he was her first calf.

594C is our youngest Simmental bull in the sale. He is a thick blazed face bull that will sire the type of heifers that are in demand.

​ long with our purebred cows we run A a large Red Angus/ Simmental cross commercial herd. We use most of the same genetics in both herds and we feel it is beneficial because it keeps us in touch with the kind of cattle that the buyers demand, as well as it lets us prove our own genetics

MERIT CATTLE CO.

Welcome

Once again we will begin by saying a huge THANK YOU to our customers, for a very rewarding 2015. We were humbled by our fellow Angus breeders honoring us as the Saskatchewan Angus Breeder of the Year. That was followed by one of the best bull sales of the spring season. It was an extremely gratifying to experience the interest and support of our fellow cattle breeders from both the seed stock and commercial sectors. We are grateful for you all! We have always believed the commercial industry steers the purebred market place, not the other way around. Our program has always focused on the basic traits that are important to real cattlemen. Calving ease, high vigor, good growth, exceptional foot structure, great hair, good temperament, backed by sound and functional momma cows. 30 plus years of genetic predictability takes the guess work out of your purchase. Like our customers, we are the ones who provide the manual labour, so our tolerance for ‘management’ cattle is extremely low. It starts with cows that are designed with the capacity and hair coat to be efficient forage converters with feet and udders that will last into their teens without intervention, and sound maternal minds so they stay in the herd long enough to be profitable. Merit bulls are managed for optimum growth and soundness. They are highly exercised and athletic as the field they are housed in from weaning to bull sale time is set up for maximum exercise with hay, pellets, water and bedding locations forcing the bulls to travel. The bulls are walking a minimum of 1.6 miles a day! We feel this year’s group of bulls is our strongest and deepest to date. There are bulls to fit everyone’s needs and budget. There are calving ease bulls designed for your heifers and growth and power bulls designed for your cows, all backed by quality Merit maternal genetics so the heifers that you retain will be sound, productive and profitable. Please feel free to call, email or text. Our sales staff is highly competent and trust worthy so feel free to ask them about the offering as well. Trent, Janelle, Macy, Garrett and Carson

77 was purchased by Right Cross Ranch and Ringstead Ranch in our 2011 bull sale. There were so many things 77 had to offer to suit our program that we just couldn’t find anywhere else, that we used our in herd right to semen on him. 77 is a soft made, deep bodied performance bull with a great foot. He displays true herdbull character and moves like a stud. 77 is above breed average for growth traits, top 1% for milk, and in the top 1% for scrotal. 77 sons exhibit performance and loads of hair that are essential in siring top selling steers in the fall. His Socialite dam has been a great producer for us. We felt that his greatest potential would lie in his daughters, and boy, are we right. They are beautiful females, with well balanced tidy udders with small teats. They are angular, moderate and soft sided. Some of the top bulls in this sale were produced by 77X daughters. We are excited for the impact the 77’s will be MERIT VISION 2047 - SON OF 77X & making in our program for years to come. SIRE OF LOTS 177 AND 151

We had high expectations for Iron Will when we purchased him as the $31,000 high seller at Bar E-L. Since then he has continued to impress us with his exceptionally consistent progeny. They are high performing, deep sided, hairy and sound… traits that we strive to produce for our bull customers. Iron Will is the top 1% for weaning and yearling growth as well as scrotal. None of this comes as a surprise as his dam is one of the most powerful and consistent producers in the Longshore herd. The females from this line are impressive. Iron Will daughters are soft sided, massive ribbed, and fertile with beautiful udders.

2016 Iron Will sons have been extremely popular with our customers. We felt so strongly about what Iron Will has to offer that we retained two sons in our herd, Big Dawg 3049 (2014 high selling bull to Double F and Lock Farms at $30,500 for 2/3 interest) and Klondike 3159. Sons of all three bulls are looking great. You’ll be seeing a lot more of these ‘yellow tag’ bulls in the future.

Our friends Robin Hogberg and Kevin Boll told us about a bull they thought we would like and boy were they right! When we saw the video, we just knew we had to own him. We don’t have a photo but please make a point to watch the bulls video, just Google his name and it will come up on the Superior website.

EXAR PRINCESS 5401 - FULL SISTER TO ONE-IRON

One - Iron was soft made, big hipped, wide pinned with loads of rib shape, and awesome hair. He is the product of mating two of history’s most popular and prolific Denver champions, sired by the triple crown winner, Dameron First Class and out of the immortal Greens Princess 1012, who has produced in excess of $1.65 million in progeny sales at Express alone. One-Iron is a flush brother to the American Royal and North American champion “Blue Chip”. One-Iron has done an excellent job breeding at Merit, a true testament to any herdbull is stamping their signature on their progeny. His sons are stout hipped, wide pinned, strong topped, soggy, athletic, super hairy, with large scrotal. It’s easy to tell they are half brothers but hard to tell them apart. His daughters we feel will make excellent range cows as they are moderate in kind, deep sided, soft made easy keepers.

EXAR BLUECHIP - FULL BROTHER TO ONE-IRON

One-Iron’s epd profile places him in the top 1% of the breed for weaning and yearling as well as total maternal. We are super excited about this exceptional offering of sons. HEIFER CALF BY ONE-IRON

Merit Big Dawg made a splash as the high selling bull in our 2014 sale at $30,500 for 2/3 interest selling to Double F and Locke Farms. He made a lot of friends that fall, being named Reserve Junior Champion at Agribition. His muscle, hind leg, powerful forerib, and style set him apart from the competition. Big Dawg consistently transmits that big top and hip to his progeny. They display his unquestionable class and character as well. His first daughter to be shown won her class at Agribition and was Reserve Intermediate heifer calf Champion at the National Show.

He has an excellent foot structure, tremendous length of body and large testicles. He’s a breeding machine and settled all the cows in his breeding field. Retaining Klondike was another opportunity to use a son from the Socialite cow family. His dam by Forte is wedgey, with loads of capacity and a beautiful MERIT SOCIALITE 5019 -DAM OF KLONDIKE udder.

Here’s the first of a really nice group of paternal brothers to last years high seller, Merit Rage. This muscular dude knew he was a bull at a very early age. He was our main “gomer” for our AI program last spring. His dam is a big volume, easy fleshing, ideal udderred female.

Merit Valor 5032 is an absolute standout that would be a definite feature in any pen in the land. He displays tremendous character in an extremely correct, sound package, with as much length and muscle as any we have come across. He’s big footed with big testicles and an exceptionally clean sheath. He’s mothered by an absolute peach of a Merit 77X two year old whose dam by Equation is a herd favorite. Our Merit 77X daughters are the best sire group to date that we have raised. When we saw Tour of Duty at stud we were impressed by this powerfully constructed, massive herdbull oozing character. Valor was the top performer from our two year olds boasting a 205 day weight of 878 to index 115. We will be using Valor in our program.

We used RB Tour of Duty strictly on virgin heifers. His epd’s for birth weight and calving ease suggested he should be heifer safe. Turns out those numbers were not very accurate. 5031 is a long spined, stout individual that should work nicely in your cow herd. He was an assisted birth from a first calf heifer.

As a result of bylaw changes within the Canadian Angus Association, Merit will be retaining a “NON revenue” sharing interest in every bull we sell. This allows Merit to collect semen on any Merit bull in the offering for in herd use only. This will be done at Merit’s expense and the new owner’s convenience. This is the same as in past sales but the change now means that ‘Merit’ will remain on the registration paper as an owner in order to satisfy association rules. This will apply to all bulls unless other terms are announced sale day.

Merit Source is about as sound and correct as you could design one. He stands on an absolutely perfect foot. He’s super clean sheathed with large, properly shaped testicles. His disposition is gentle and he’s easy to handle even though he like to paw and bellow at the fence. We call him “Mr. Angus” because we feel he exemplifies everything an Angus bull should be, and he has that awesome Angus character through his head and front end. He weaning heavy with a 107 index and possesses a well balanced set of epd’s. His heavy milking dam by Forte has a beautiful udder. We believe that “Source” will be a tremendous female maker. Selling 2/3 interest and full possession

MERIT SOCIALITE 4013 - DAINES HEAVY SI DAUGHTER


ATTLE CO. Merit Kane 5088 was exhibited last fall at the side of his Merit Courage sired dam, Merit Pride 2080. They were class winners at both the National show and Canadian Western Agribition. We believe “Paddy”, as in Paddy Kane, possesses all the traits our astute commercial clientele demands. He’s a high performing stud that’s deep bodied, soft made, eye appealing and super sound structured with great hair. All that said, his best attribute may be his exceptional dam. He’s backed by generations of solid productivity and longevity, if you trace back his paper work the females that produced at Merit averaged over 12 years of production. His pedigree is different and bares a “Canadian” designation. Premium herd bull here!!

Cast Iron was definitely one of the most intriguing and admired bulls of the fall show season. While being one of the top performing calves exhibited, it was his unique depth, volume and thickness that continually stopped traffic. Rarely do high performance, structural soundness, and conservative frame, come together as they do in Cast Iron. He possesses large testicles, a big deep hoof, tremendous hair, and as strong a forerib as you’ll find with this much mass and power. He’s a proud, gentle and powerful herd bull that we will be using in our own program.

2016

Cast Iron has been a standout from the get go and was the top indexing bull at weaning with a 128 weaning ratio. He was junior bull calf champion at the National Angus show and Canadian Western Agribition, as well as Reserve Champion Angus bull in the Semex President Classic. His dam, Merit Jilt 2077, combines great female producers in Visa, Forte , Equalizer, Power Play and Pine Drive. She’s an absolute tank with a square and level udder and excellent feet. Cast Iron is an outcross to virtually the entire industry. His Epd profile is extremely well balanced, adding to his appeal and versatility. This one could re-write history! Selling 2/3 interest and full possession.

MERIT CA

No frills, functional females with the utmost attention paid to structure, udders, disposition and do-ability. Our cows graze stockpiled grass as late as possible in the year, and when we are lucky and Mother Nature allows, even past Christmas. They are then fed hay bales with lick tubs on a half section until February. They are not supplemented with grain, fed silage or out swath grazing annual cereals. Our females are taught to rustle for forage at an early age, with heifer calves being weaned on pasture and never confined to a ‘pen’ until it’s time for them to calve. They are not perfect, but we are trying our damnedest to produce the best Merit Mommas possible. The Angus cow is still the best mother cow in the world, as long as we remember what got her there in the first place. It sure wasn’t because of some numbers on a piece of paper.

There’s lots to like about this Vision son with his length, hip and look. His paper work is really neat, he’s line bred Luke. The females in this cow family have been great producers. His dam Merit Pride 8652 is one of the nicest cows on the place to look at (and we still don’t have a picture of her so you will have to come and see her for yourself), she would be competitive in any show ring even at 8 years of age. 5142 should produce wicked replacement females.
