Welcome
from Golden Oak Livestock
It is an honour to welcome you to Cattle In The Snow Volume IV! Whether you’re a long time customer or this is your first time viewing our cattle, thank you, we appreciate your interest. It has been a great year of early rains, summer and fall tours and never seen before cattle prices. To everyone who called, toured the cattle this summer and fall, stopped for a visit and expressed interest in our cattle, we can’t thank you enough. The laughs we had out on our deck with many of you this summer is one of our favourite parts of this business! Like many, we have spent countless hours researching pedigrees, touring herds and adding what we believe will be future key pieces to growing our herd and compliment what we already strive for; cattle that reproduce themselves time and time again, bulls that will add pounds to your calves in the fall and females that you won’t want to part with. It is incredibly humbling to see how well our cattle have been received in the industry. To witness progeny and genetics from our herd go on to have lasting impacts on our fellow breeders herds is so rewarding and we can’t thank everyone enough for their confidence in our program. When Golden Oak Preacher 333L was born, we had high hopes for him and he has not disappointed, he has gone above and beyond our expectations. His progeny are exactly what we had hoped they would be - thick, easy fleshing, tons of eye appeal; the kind of cattle that are going to be herd builders. This year’s sale features several bull calves and heifer calves out of Preacher as well as a full sib to him. The Preacher’s catch the eye of everyone who walks through the pens and we truly believe they are going to become cornerstones in many herds going forward. We are proud of the fact that many of the lots in the sale, both Angus and Hereford, are out of bulls that walk here at Golden Oak. Our goal is to raise cattle that are easy fleshing, good footed, beautiful uddered and perform. Whether you’re looking for a new herdsire, a bull to add pounds to your commercial calves or produce females for your replacement
pen, a fancy show heifer that will turn into a foundation female or genetic pieces to add to enhance your herd, we have every confidence that this offering checks all of those boxes. We are extremely grateful to our friends and fellow breeders who have graciously consigned some of their very best to this year’s Cattle In The Snow. We know how difficult it is to part with these cattle and genetics and we can’t thank them enough for giving us their best. A huge thank you goes out to our kids for all their help throughout the year and at sale time; to our family and friends for their continuous encouragement and support; and to our customers for your belief and trust in Golden Oak cattle. We look forward to hosting everyone on Thursday, December 18th at Golden Oak Livestock for supper, the sale, and, as always, some pre and post sale Christmas cheer! Please take advantage of the free cab service running throughout the afternoon, evening and night from both the Pomeroy and the Ramada hotels in Olds. They will give you a ride out to the farm and take you back to town whenever you’re ready! Feel free to contact either of us, any of the sales staff or any of the guest consignors if you have any questions or to discuss any of the cattle on offer. On behalf of all of us at Golden Oak Livestock, thank you for your interest in our program and we wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a healthy and prosperous 2026!

Golden Oak & Guests Cattle in the Snow Volume IV
Welcome
from T Bar
As the snow begins to fly across the prairies and the crisp winter air reminds us of the strength it takes to thrive in this industry, we are proud to welcome you to the Cattle in the Snow Sale — a celebration of quality, consistency, and commitment to excellence in every animal offered. Paired with some of the best hospitality you will find anywhere, this is a not to be missed event and yes, it’s more than just a sale. Each year, this sale represents more than just genetics — it represents a dedication to raising cattle that work hard in all conditions and bring proven value to progressive herds. Whether you’re looking for elite replacement females or bulls that can move your program forward, we are confident you’ll find genetics here that make a lasting impact. Highlighted by the first offspring of the featured bull in the second edition of Cattle in the Snow, “Preacher”. The Preacher calves offer added performance and muscle shape. This year’s lineup of both Angus and Herefords showcases elite females bred for structural soundness, maternal strength, fertility, and longevity. These are the kind of females that build cow families — deep-bodied, easy-keeping, and highly productive in even the harshest environments. Many descend from donor cows and sires whose influence can be seen across top herds nationwide.

Golden Oak & Guests Cattle in the Snow Volume IV
The bulls of both breeds have been developed with the same focus on performance, balance, and phenotype. Whether you’re looking for calving ease sires, growth and carcass potential, or bulls with the kind of muscle and presence that turn heads in the ring and in the pasture, this group has been selected to offer the very best. Backed by strong data, proven pedigrees, and years of careful breeding decisions, these bulls represent the direction we believe the beef industry is heading — efficient, predictable, and profitable.

The bulls and heifers are raised on pasture with their moms who are on a year-round mineral program. In early September, the calves are weaned from their moms and put onto grass pasture and creep for approximately three weeks. The bull calves are then transitioned onto a TMR that maximizes high forage utilization, and the heifers are left on grass pasture and hand fed. We use Bullseye supplements to maximize growth and the health of our growing cattle which maximizes their genetic potential with longevity in mind. The bull supplement is fully fortified to maintain hair, testicle, and lean muscle growth. If you have any questions about the nutrition program, please reach out.

Both of these heifer calves are elegant and beautiful in their make up and it will be very difficult to choose which one you like more on sale day. Their full brothers sell as lots 4 and 5.

We thought long and hard about parting with what we feel is a genetic home run but we are committed to selling some of our best. The list of high selling siblings to 491M include: GO 435M to Murray Ranches for $45,000, GO Area Code 403M to LLB Angus and MJT Cattle Co. for $40,000.00, GO Preacher 333L for $70,000.00 for half interest to Westway Farms and we’re confident this list will continue to grow. Flushes in 491M’s dam, GO 2D have sold to Blairs. Ag, Westway Farms and Allison Farms. We believe 491M is going to grow into a foundation female and write her own legacy.

Her first calf is Lot 47 and you can see for yourself everything she put into her calf and still looks the way she does. Every person who has seen 322L, no matter what breed of cattle they have, have said you could paint her any colour and she would be phenomenal. Phenotypically, GO 322L checks all the boxes.

We do our best to focus on the basics, foot and udder quality, maternal traits and performance. When hunting to find new genetics to add to our program and bring a fresh taste to the Canadian market, we won’t sacrifice our strict selection criteria. We think this pairing is one of the most exciting we could dream up. On the top is Roy, the New Zealand outcross phenom with ideal structural quality and performance. His sons have topped sales in Australia, and the initial calf reports from Musgrave Angus have been excellent. The bottom is no less exciting. Owned with VICCI Cattle and Jauer Angus, 3253 is the ONLY full sister to LD Capitalist 316, and her track record is nothing short of impressive. Her sons have topped Luddington’s historic sale on two separate occasions, with one of them, LD Essential 8021, being the 2nd highest selling bull in Luddington’s storied 50+ year history and was also the heaviest weaned bull in their program’s history. Essential went to stud at Origen while several other sons went on as herd sires for registered programs. She is proven to bring the same extreme muscling, function, and good looks that 316 is famous for, with excelent scrotal, docility, and frame size. Every single 3253 daughter has been retained. Never offered publicly, their quality is what earned her way to the Donor pen. Consigned by MJT Cattle Co

Terms
and Conditions
Terms: The terms of the sale are cash or cheque, payable at par at the sale location. The right of property shall not pass until after settlement has been made; no invoicing on buyers in attendance unless previous arrangements have been made. Every animal sells to the highest bidder and in cases of disputes, the auctioneer’s decision will be final. Announcements from the auction block will take precedence over the printed matter in the catalogue. Current exchange rates will be announced sale day. All monies are in Canadian funds.
Pregnancy Information: All serviceable age females have been pregnancy examined by an accredited veterinarian, giving an estimated length of gestation. This estimated gestation period shall be used only as a guideline to calving and is not a guarantee of actual service.
Certificate of Registration: Each animal will carry papers issued by the Canadian Hereford Association or the Canadian Angus Association. A certificate of registry duly transferred will be furnished to the buyer for each animal after payment has been made.
Delivery: Assistance will be given in getting your purchases home. Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser as soon as sold.
Pedigree Estimates: Pedigree Estimates (PE) are created on the projected mating of the animal’s sire and dam based on averages of the two, creating estimated values that do not hold the same accuracy of actual EPDs issued from the association and should be used as such. Health: All animals in the sale have met all necessary health requirements. Guarantee: Each animal becomes the purchaser’s risk immediately after the animal is sold. All animals in this sale will be sold under the terms and guarantees set forth by the Canadian Hereford & Canadian Angus Associations with regard to health, freedom from defects and from both reproductive and specific genetic unsoundness.
Liabilities: All persons attend the sale at their own risk. The seller, facility owner and sale staff assume no liability legal or otherwise, for any accidents that occur
