e m o c l e W FROM BAR 3R
We would like to welcome everyone to our 25th edition of the Bar 3R Limousin Bull Sale. Our goal to supply quality Limousin bulls to the commercial cattleman has remained the same for 25 years. Much like last year 2019 was very challenging. Feed costs were high and in short supply in many areas. Grass and water were not exactly plentiful in those areas. Lack of summer moisture was again a major concern. We hope for better times ahead! We made a decision to end our January/February calving, so for the first time in 25 years, all of the bulls on offer are coming 2 Year olds born in April and May. We are very confident we have another quality set of stout Limousin bulls on offer that are ready to go to work. Hope to see you sale day! The bulls are managed with breeding longevity in mind. They are fed a high roughage, silage based ration and are on a total herd health program. All bulls are guaranteed virgin bulls and carry our personal guarantee, if you’re not satisfied, we’re not satisfied. We welcome your evaluation of the sale offering either at the farm or on sale day. If you are unable to attend the sale take advantage of our sight unseen purchase program. Just call or come to the farm in advance so we can discuss your needs and develop a budget. As always satisfaction is guaranteed. Once again this year we offer to board your purchase until May 1, 2020, semen test and deliver for $100. We ask that bulls to be boarded carry insurance. Talk to us for any further arrangements. If you are unable to attend the sale, please call us or any of our capable sales staff. Come early to preview the bulls then join us for a free lunch. If we can assist you in any way please do not hesitate to call. We greatly appreciate your support in the past and sincerely hope we can retain your confidence in the future. On behalf of the Bar 3R team we thank you for coming.

EPDs EXPLAINED Expected Progeny Differences (EPDs) are used to compare the genetic merit of animals in various traits. An EPD pre-dicts the difference in performance of future offspring of a parent, as compared to progeny from other parents, when each are bred to mates of equal value. Remember, the observed performance of an animal is determined by both genetics and environment, and EPDs only predict differences due to genes passed on from parent to offspring.
Birth Weight (BW)
Birth weight has been identified as the single most influ- ential factor contributing to calving difficulty. In studies of birth weight data, birth weight EPDs have been shown to be the single most accurate genetic predictor of calf birth weight. BW is expressed in pounds of calf at birth and a lower number is desirable.
Weaning Weight (WW) and Yearling Weight (YW)
EPDs are expressed as the added pounds of weaning and yearling weight of offspring. Yearling bull weights are actuals taken in September of 2018.
Milking Ability (MA)
A sire’s milk EPD is expressed as the additional pounds of weaning weight of calves from daughters (grandprogeny of sire), due to genes for milk passed on from the sire to his daughters. Similarly, a dam’s milk EPD indicates added pounds of weaning weight of calves from her daughters (grandprogeny of dam), due to genes for milk the daugh- ters inherited from the dam.
Scrotal Circumference (SC)
Scrotal circumference has been found to be a good indicator of age at puberty, and is a highly heritable trait. Expressed in centimeters with higher values indicating larger yearling scrotal circumference of sons.

He comes in a very impressive package; long spined, square hipped, good haired, soft middled, all on top of a big foot. With a 1479 lb YW weight and a massive 22.38 in ribeye we felt he could sire calves that would excel in the pasture and the feedlot. He has surpassed all our expectations. Bud is a major part of our program, his daughter are proving to be functional cows with excellent udders. Buds legacy is just beginning here at Bar 3R.

We purchased Cruz out of the Prairie Gold Sale in Saskatoon. We used him on heifers for the first year and soon realized he had major herdsire potential. Cruz has grown into a powerhouse, he is a long bodied, big hipped and big footed. We think he is a versatile sire offering calving ease, docility and sound structure. 12 sons in our 2019 sale averaged $6050 so performance and consistency are part of the package.
