On behalf of all of us here at Black Gold Simmental, we would like to welcome you to our annual bull
and female sale. We would like to thank you for the interest in our program, and taking the time to go through our catalog. This coming sale will be our third bull sale hosted at the farm, although we have been selling bulls for 25+ years and this is something that we are very passionate about. Each year we are overwhelmed with the support of new and existing customers, and we are always doing everything we can to advance our program and produce the highest quality product for you, our valued customers. The last three months have been quite something, with an extremely mild fall and early part of winter, to a short lived cold spell that presented us with some of the coldest temperatures we have ever seen. But we really cannot complain, as we have never bedded or fed as little as we did in the last sixty days of 2023. The mild temperatures and no snow allowed us to keep our bulls in larger areas a lot later than we have been able to in the past. It was a different site seeing our bulls climb the hills and explore 80 acres of bare ground during the Christmas season, but we sure enjoyed it. The mild temperatures also made it easier for us to get around and attend all the fall shows and exhibit the best of our breeding program. We were honored this year to have both the Supreme Champion Yearling Heifer in the First Lady Classic and Supreme Champion Female in the CN Beef Supreme at Agribition. Our offering for 2024 is our largest to date, and possibly the most consistent all the way through. In our fullblood division, the majority of the bulls are sired by NAC Battle Cry 4F and SBV Reputation 707F. The old saying “if it’s not broke don’t fix it” seems fitting here, as these two sires consistently crank out quality progeny for us and offer breeding versatility on both cows and heifers. In saying that, our 138L Battle Cry son would be one of our favorite Battle Cry progeny we have ever produced, and the first fullblood bull to make our show string in quite some time. The Reputation sons are very deep with several features and quality bulls in this group, and one homozygous polled powerhouse, 14L. On our purebred side we offer some very new and outcross genetics with a few new herdsires. WFL Mountain View 4J has a rookie calf crop of bulls that are unlike any sire group we have ever had in our red/black division. Being mostly off heifers, he sires a group of sons that are so consistent in quality, colour, structure, fleshing ability, and hair. KWA Holyfield 96J brings a smaller sire group for his rookie year, but one red baldy son sure has impressed us this year and is among the best we have ever raised. A handful of feature black bulls are sired by the $230 000 KCC1 Countertime and $150 000 RF Caliber 014G. All of these bulls are backed by some of our best donors like KDP Miss Hoya Hayleigh, RF Certainly Flirtin 532C, Black Gold Ms Ava 125F, and IRCC Foxtrot 862F.

Each year an extensive AI and ET program allows us to source some of the best genetics available. This also allows us to move our program in the right direction at a more rapid pace, and we enjoy seeing the influence made by some of our best donor cows in just a single year. We also take purchasing herd bulls very seriously, and often do everything possible to ensure that we are buying the best available, that are backed by the right kind of cows. We strive to produce cattle that don’t just excel in a single trait, but rather have a balanced set of quality traits throughout. We work extensively with Ryley and the entire team at Bullseye Feeds to develop our bulls. Our bulls are fed a high roughage TMR ration from weaning on, with the goal of developing them slowly with longevity in mind. Our cowherd is also on a full mineral program year round, as nutrition is something we pay close attention to and always put emphasis on. We guarantee that these bulls are structurally sound and have passed a semen test by a licensed veterinarian, unless otherwise stated in our supplement sheet prior to sale. Once again, we would like to thank all of our past, current, and future customers for their support in our program. We are proud of the set of bulls we have to offer, and encourage anyone to come out and have a look through them prior to, or on March 9th. There is always someone around to take you for a tour. We are passionate about the cattle industry, and enjoy talking anything cattle so please feel free to reach out with any questions.

WELCOMEFROM BOHRSON
T
he Noble Family of Black Gold Simmental have gone over and beyond breeding and assembling their 2024 Bull and Female offering. The same great quality you have known to get from the BGS operation and then some would best describe their largest and most consistent set of Simmental cattle available to the public. After a record “banner” year that saw the Black Gold crew and their partners capture the Supreme First Lady Classic and CN Beef Supreme Champion Female Title at Canadian Western Agribition, they have certainly followed it up with this outstanding set of bulls and impressive set of open heifers. We are proud to welcome you on behalf of the entire Black Gold Family and all of us from Bohrson Marketing to this years edition. The bread and butter of the operation has always been the Fullblood cattle and this years set of bulls in this division are as cookie cutter in type and kind as anywhere you will see. The BGS “mold” or “kind” is made up in 3 simple words. Colour, hair and structure are at the most importance when they source their fullblood cattle and as you analyze the stout set of Battle Cry, Reutation, Cargo and 48H sons, you will quickly see they are all rich in haricots, pigment and phenotype. Use these bulls to add some pounds and performance to your calf crop without sacrificing the maternal characteristics the Noble family have worked so hard to breed into their cattle. The Purebred, red and black bulls on offer are as intriguing and deep in quality as we have ever seen them put together. The rookie calf crops off of big time acquisitions such as WFL Mountainview 4J and KWA Holyfield 96J have blown through the doors of expectation and offer new blood to those of you that have been buying your red and black bulls here for some time. The big time donor females the Nobles have in their possession are well represented with an array of impressive sons by Hoya Hayleigh, Certainly Flirtin 532C, Foxtrot 862F as well as HLTS Sammie after their purchase of her entire embryo bank in 2022. These bulls in this section of the catalogue offer so much maternal richness and are the type of bulls to utilize to cash in on those sought after replacement females and are also bred with performance so their sons will absolutely crush the scales down when it comes time to sell your steers. The open replacement heifers on offer are always an exciting part of this great sale. They are your opportunity to get in early on a BGS female and breed them how you want and do whatever you want with them. They are a female example of all the popular sires represented in the bull portion of the catalogue and give you a strong indication of what they can do that way. They also stem from some of the most profitable and predictable cow families that work here and when you start seeing cow family names such as Kannanaskis, Krystal, Wynonna, Krackle and Kali to name a few, it truly is a whose who when it comes to the cow power at Black Gold. We could write a book on the accomplishments of this breeding program from their well established bull sale with many loyal and repeat customers, to their industry leading fall female sale that has proven to be one of the most influential on the breed, to their dominating awards received in the show ring, but perhaps their greatest accomplishment is their strong family values and integrity. This large family operation is full of folks that are down to earth, honest and the kind you want to do business with and we encourage you to make plans and join us for their annual Bull & Female Sale on March 9th at the farm. The combination of Simmental seedstock, the people and the hospitality make this an environment you want to be apart of. Give ay of the crew at BG a call to come and view the cattle before hand, they would be pleased to tour you through and visit about the cattle. If any of us listed from BMS can be of any assistance, please don’t hesitate to call, we are proud to have a close working relationship with the Nobles and know their program and the cattle avail very well. We would be excited to help you in sourcing your next purchases. Best Regards,

Once again we initiate the offering with one of the best walking herd bulls we have had here. It doesn’t matter if it’s for use on heifers, cows, or donors, Battle Cry doesn’t seem to miss. We are now calving several Battle Cry daughters, and we are very impressed with the udder quality of these females. Battle Cry himself is one of the most impressive mature bulls in our battery, with awesome feet, incredible dark red colour, and a powerful yet smooth phenotype. We are excited once again to leadoff our spring sale with this sire group.

NON-DILUTOR, SCURRED. We initiate this year’s catalog with a Battle Cry son that we feel does a lot right. Dark red, lots of pigment and thick hair, and off a top end Reputation x Bryck first calver. We always brag about how high we are on our Bryck daughters and his ability to improve udders, but the same can be said for Reputation. We have calved two years of Reputation daughters now and they are easy to pick out and the kind we look forward to building around. 222J goes back to 51X who was a cornerstone female here for ten years, and put a son in the powerful herd bull battery of Rendezvous Farms and a $30 000 daughter through The Evolution in the fall.

NON-DILUTOR’S. It’s not very often that we will keep two twin bulls around and target them for our bull sale, but these two always impressed us so we decided to give them a shot. We are sure happy we did as these are two moderate framed, big bodied, large scrotalled, good footed herd bulls in the making, who rank in the top 20% for calving ease. 91D came from the famed Gagnon program in Quebec, and stems from one of the most potent cow families in the entire breed, the Kananaskis family. She is an awesome footed, big bodied, easy doing female who we look forward to calving out each year. In 2021, her feature son was sold to Simon and Rose Bodurka of Vermilion.

NON-DILUTOR. There is no doubt that 138L has been a favorite around here for quite some time, and for us it comes as no surprise when you study his pedigree. The Battle Cry x Stuey combination is something we have done over and over here and with great success. Two bulls that throw so much blood red colour, great temperaments, foot quality, and just overall phenotype, we think 138L carries all of these traits and more. He’s long bodied, smooth made, and flexible, but remains powerful in his muscle pattern and body shape. It’s been quite a few years since we have shown a fullblood bull, but 138L made the trip to Agribition with us and ended up second in class against a tough group of red and black bulls. We have four maternal sisters retained in our herd to 138L and a great looking, polled full sister born here in 2024. 54E is a cow that offers extra frame and length with a good udder underneath her. 138L is exactly the kind of bull that we strive to raise year after year, and we believe he has a lot to offer.

NON-DILUTOR. As much as we talk about how 138L was a favorite his entire life, 28L was the bigger version of him that impressed us just as much. I can’t remember us ever having a fullblood bull that stood apart from the rest in terms of sheer growth, length of body, maturity, and performance. He again carries that awesome colour and haircoat, typical of the Battle Cry x Stuey combination. 54F is one of our favorite cows and stems back to one of our most elite donor cows, Janis 3W. 3W is the dam of the $67 000 Black Gold Crude that sold to Virginia Ranch, and has twenty registered progeny in the CSA. 54F herself was flushed last spring, and bred back next cycle giving us a full brother to 28L mid-January. Her udder quality, colour and pigment, and length of body is beyond intriguing to us and we look forward to building around her in the future. 28L is a definite power bull who stands on a great foot, is huge scrotalled, and still ranks in the top 15% for calving ease.

She also has a son working for the Laurencesons at Mannville, who consistently buy some of the best bulls they can find.

It’s impossible to put into words what 930W did for our cow herd, and we feel her influence is everlasting. 76L is a dark red, long bodied bull with a low birthweight and big hip. His maternal brother last year was a $35 000 feature going to the Kushneriks of Spruce View Acres. 35E is among one of the more powerful 930W daughters who offers extra length, frame, and a huge square foot with a typical “Whisper” udder.

Three bulls we talk very high on and always will, it’s not shocking we are impressed with 79L’s birth to yearling spread and overall phenotype. Just an 88 lb birthweight and a 1447 lb adjusted yearling weight, 79L has performed well his entire life. He ranks in the top 20% for calving ease and would be a good candidate for heifers or first calvers.

Last fall, we sold an open heifer at Friday Night Lights to the great Labatte and Circle 7 programs for $34 000. That female was IVF flushed as a virgin heifer, and embryos recently sold for $4200/embryo. 119L is a moderate framed, deep ribbed, smooth but powerful individual. We love his hair coat and colour, and his dam behind him. 39H is a candidate for the donor pen after seeing her first two calves, and is the front pasture kind that we love to show visitors.

It ended up being a blessing in disguise, as he calved well for us and we are beyond impressed with the quality of his offspring. 257J is a great uddered, good footed female that we really like. She is a maternal sister to the $60 000 Mortal bull that has bred well for Mark Land and Cattle. 144L combines just an 83 lb birthweight and just shy of 1400 lb adjusted yearling weight, and should be easy to find on sale day.

NON-DILUTOR, SCURRED. A blood red, great haired calving ease prospect with lots of pigment. 271L is one of the youngest bulls on offer, but one that should be seriously considered if you’re looking to breed heifers. As I look at his pedigree, one thing comes to mind and that is udder and foot quality. He goes back to 42W, who was a perfect uddered female that bred really well for us. We considered holding 271L over to sell as a feature two year old next year, but his ability to consistently get better with time convinced us to offer him up on March 9th, where he will just barely be a year old.

There’s no doubt our “go to” polled herd bull currently is the past high selling, SBV Reputation 707F. Reputation had high expectations coming in, but passed them with flying colours. His first two sire groups have hit the market hard, with countless high sellers and sons as high as $100 000 and $73 000. We do have Reputation daughters in production right now, and we feel this might be this bull’s biggest strength. We are currently flushing a Reputation daughter that is probably as good of a fullblood female that we have ever had. This year’s sire group we feel is the most consistent and highest quality yet, with depth all the way throughout the fifteen sons on offer.

A definite feature in this year’s offering, filling the shoes of his maternal brother who leadoff our 2023 sale. 146L is a long bodied, huge hipped, big topped bull who handles it well with flexibility off of both ends. He is the natural calf off our 58B donor, who is arguably our favorite cow. We admire his masculine herd bull look, colour, pigment, and hair coat. Last year, his maternal brother sold to Mark Land and Cattle and Westman Farms for $36 000, and a maternal sister was our leadoff female in the first Evolution sale, selling for $30 000 to Curtis Simmentals. 58B is a powerful donor cow, with a perfect huge foot, lots of power, and a good udder. We will be utilizing her more and more in our donor pen this year, as she reaches ten years of age. A homozygous polled maternal sister to 146L recently calved here in January, and has a perfect udder underneath her. 146L is a polled performance bull in a moderate package, with one of the most dependable pedigrees we could put behind one.

D BLACK GOLD MS KALI 157H
NON-DILUTOR. A dark red, good haired Reputation son that goes back to the Kali cow family, similar to 111L and 186L. We like that 9L packs a lot of rib, muscle shape, and fleshing ability into a frame that should be acceptable and not too extreme for most cattlemen. This is typical of the Reputation offspring. 157H herself is a dark red female with a good udder. We are beyond impressed with our Reputation sire group this year, and feel this is the most consistent they have ever been.

Her first son was a feature in last year’s sale, going to the beyond impressive herd of Dan Thorsteinson at Foam Lake. 118L is the kind of bull that we would take a whole pen of, and we would be the first to sign up for more of his dam’s kind as well.

BLACK GOLD SIMMENTALS BULL & FEMALE SALE
NON-DILUTOR, HOMO POLLED. A big time feature in the Reputation group is this homozygous polled powerhouse. 14L is one long bodied, big hipped, rugged made individual who offers plenty of flexibility on the move. We like his masculine, herd bull look that he has had from a very young age. 6F is a cow that’s easy to admire, as she carries the same extra length, body and performance that 14L possesses. Her son in 2022 sold to Spruce View Acres as a feature for $30 000, and last year’s son sold to Denise Boggust at Paynton. We think that 14L’s homo polled and non-dilutor genes offer lots of mating flexibility and genetic potential, and think he is one that needs to be seen prior to or on March 9th if you’re in the market for a unique fullblood bull.

NON-DILUTOR. Another definite feature in this sire group and a personal favorite of mine. 61L is a hairy, loose hided, soft made bull whose powerful muscle shape and overall phenotype makes him very intriguing. He too goes back to Janis 3W, the dam of Black Gold Crude. 141H is a typical 3W daughter, with a very tidy udder and perfect short teets. She is one of our favorite young cows, as she and 61L were a member of our string at Turtleford Pen Show this past summer. Her first shot at production she gave us a Battle Cry daughter that we retained and just recently calved out, and she is about as ideal as we can make them. Although not extreme in frame and a moderate 88 lb birth weight, 61L weaned off at 900 lbs and has an adjusted yearling weight of over 1500 lbs, which makes him our fifth heaviest bull at a year old.

DILUTOR, SCURRED. Another very solid Reputation son here that isn’t overwhelming in frame but is packed full of meat and muscle. 145L is big ribbed, wide pinned and expressive through his hip and stifle, while having a masculine, herd bull look about his front ⅓. 235H is a spitting image of her dam, 96D, who is a cow that we have always had ranked very high. We don’t have many United daughters, but the ones we do are among our top cows and she is no exception. Foot and udder quality and a powerful body shape are consistent traits found in this cow family.

CHERRY CREEK GLITZ 4D SUNNY VALLEY RHEA 54C FGAF FRENCH ATTACK 010C LAKEVIEW MS WRANG 62B FF
NON-DILUTOR, HETERO POLLED. 246L has been a standout since day one, and one we have watched closely the past year. Initially, this was mostly because his maternal brother was our high selling bull last year, going to Westgold Farms for $72 000. As 246L has developed, he brings his own quality to the table and has so many of the desirable traits that his brother had last year. 246L is only a mid-February bull who is extremely long bodied, sound structured, and has that impressive herd bull look. But yet he’s also big hipped, soft made, and performance driven with an over 1500 lb adjusted yearling weight. 41H was flushed after calving in 2022 to Sugar Ray, and left us with two feature sons later in this catalog, and six impressive daughters that top our current yearling heifer pen. We could go on and on about how much we love 41H, as we believe she is one of the few cows that you could paint any colour or make any breed, and she’s always going to be the high end kind. The maternal quality and breeding potential on 246L is as good as any bull on offer on March 9th.

His herd bull look has been there from an early age, and will be one of the biggest scrotal bulls on offer. His performance, power, and quality doesn’t come as a shock to us, as the same thing could be said about his dam. We talk about how high we are on our few United daughters, and 46D is another good example why. She is a perfect footed, good uddered cow that is always picked out on pasture tours. The male progeny sired by this guy no doubt should push the scales, but he also comes with maternal power behind him.

He is backed by a powerful Stuey daughter, who has a homo polled son working for Forden Fairview Farms. She is also a full sister to a $25 000 feature fullblood bred selling to Labatte and Oberle. Barry says this female is a current donor and one of the best fullblood females they have around. The 48H sire group isn’t as big as some, but the quality and consistency is there.

We replicated that mating to try and make one of the same kind, and we feel exactly that happened with 70L. We love 70L’s combination of power, structure, and look, wrapped up in a great coloured package. 134D is a top end female for us and a favorite among many, and one we regret not getting a picture of each year. Her dam came from the Salmon Arm dispersal, and always had that big bodied, easy doing donor cow image. The foot and udder quality backing 70L should be second to none.

This was a mating that we were very excited for ever since breeding season. 149G is one of our top young cows and goes back to one of our favorite old cows 12P, who bred awesome here for fourteen years. 35B was also a high end female here that spent time in our donor pen. We have only used 73F on select cows, but man has he worked. He sired our high selling female in our first Evolution sale, our third high selling bull in 2022, and our leadoff bull in 2023. 148L is a long bodied, powerful bull with extra growth and an ideal colour pattern. He ranks in our top ten bulls with an adjusted yearling weight of over 1500 lbs, and his maternal brother was selected last year by Starwest Farms for use in their heifer pen.

20L NON-DILUTOR – 19L NON-DILUTOR, SCURRED. These two ET brothers have been standouts since a young age and have never looked back. Their performance, added depth of body, and overall muscle pattern has made them easy to spot on tours and fun to watch develop. If you have ever toured here, you probably haven’t left without seeing 41H, as she is undoubtedly one of our best looking cows, and owned with our good friend Elliot Lindgren. She has given us an impressive Battle Cry son early in 2024, and will be set up to enter our donor program once again. And if you toured here this past summer, you also probably saw the six full sisters to 19L and 20L that sure have us excited for their future. We would love to show you both 41H and all of her offspring, as we feel her kind is timeless and we cannot wait to continue to build around her in the future.

Each year we try to hold over a couple high quality bulls that’re a bit younger to market as two year olds the following year. We did that with these two bulls, as they are in no way “no sales” from last year. Dark red, great haired, long bodied, and smooth made describes this Battle Cry son, who comes in a very honest condition. 86F as commented before, is a big bodied female with a good udder, and is also the dam of a Cargo son, 47L.

There is no doubt that Mountain View is the highest quality, most consistent producing purebred bull that we have ever owned. After seeing him at Westways in the spring of 2022, and then seeing the elite bald faced donor dam behind him, he was a must own for us. He combines a 75 lb birth weight, actual weaning and yearling performance, incredible dark red colour, a big foot, and a 44 cm yearling scrotal measurement. These first sons of Mountain View are born mostly off heifers, and get us beyond excited for his upcoming calf crop. He is being used in our donor program heavily, and we are excited to offer up his first sons on March 9th.

HOMO POLLED. Over the past few years we have been trying extensively to advance our red program to another level, and the acquisition of the $40 000 WFL Mountain View is proving to do just that. 74L is an absolute standout and has been his entire life, which we find unique for a bull who started with just an 84 lb birth weight. 74L is a blood red, great haired performance bull. He’s so long bodied yet still soft and big ribbed, stout pinned and wide topped, but still smooth blending throughout. His ability to handle this power with an attractive, up-headed herd bull look is impressive to us, as he floats around the pen with plenty of ease. 74L ranks in the top 25% for CE and 30% for BW, as many calving ease sires are found in his pedigree such as Crossroads Black Rebel and KWA FLYF Red Mountain. It’s with his added calving ease, that his 1500 lb adjusted yearling weight is so hard to come by. 171J is a moderate framed, big bodied, blood red female with a tidy udder. 74L has passed every expectation here with flying colours and impresses us more and more each day. He is an exciting herd bull prospect that we are pumped to have raised.

BLACK GOLD SIMMENTALS BULL & FEMALE SALE
HETERO POLLED. There’s no better bull to follow up 74L than 27L. These two powerhouses have been so similar their entire life, and we can never decide which one we quite like more. 27L is one of the longest bodied bulls on offer, who is so sound structured and flexible off of both ends. He is very dimensional with an overwhelming hip shape and robust body. It’s these performance attributes that allow him to adjust with a 1550 lb yearling weight, which puts him second among our whole offering. His EPD’s read similar as he ranks in the top 20% for WW and 25% for YW, again born off a first calf heifer. 201J is a young cow that’s easy to like with her added length, look, and udder quality. 27L combines a more outcross pedigree, impressive performance, and a phenotype that makes him one of the most interesting bulls on offer.

HOMO POLLED. We typically wouldn’t sell many March born bulls in our sale, but when they not only performed with the rest of the pen, but stood out, we figured he should be in this year’s sale. 286L is probably the widest bodied, biggest hipped, biggest topped bull that we have on offer. It’s with his added width all the way throughout that allows him to perform at a high level, with an adjusted yearling weaning weight of over 900 lbs and yearling weight over 1530 lbs. He has an awesome hair coat and masculine front ⅓, typical of this sire group. 179F is an impressive daughter off our National Champion Soda Pop, who is one of our highest revenue generating females. She replicates Soda Pop’s desirable body shape and has a good udder. I sound like a broken record talking about how high we are on these feature Mountain View sons, but feel they truly need to be seen to be appreciated. We will let you decide which is the best one.

The same kind of blood, cherry red colour, deep rib shape, fleshing ability, and attractive yet masculine head and crest. He started out with only an 86 lb birth weight, and ranks in the top 25-35% for BW, CE, WW, and YW and top 10% for API and TI. He is mothered by a dark red, deep ribbed, good uddered Black Rebel first calver, making him a ¾ brother to our leadoff 74L. 15L is a shot more moderate than 74L and 27L, but reads with the same kind of powerfully constructed phenotype, that makes this sire group so easy to like. We have never had this quality of bulls come off first calf heifers before, and would love to tour you through the pen to help you find a favorite.

HOMO POLLED. 532C has been a mainstay in our donor program for several years, and is one of the biggest bodied, easiest doing females we have ever laid our eyes on. Her foot and udder quality is second to none and we are working on building a large cow family around this unique donor. She stems from one of the most potent cow families in the entire breed, and has bred accordingly, with fifteen sons averaging just shy of $20 000 here. Mating her to Mountain View was a no brainer, and we are sure happy we did to produce these two powerhouses. Extremely easy doing, rugged made, and big bodied, these two brothers excel in terms of muscle and testicle development.

He combines a moderate 88 lb birth weight with actual performance at both weaning and yearling. 129F is a performance driven, big bodied cow with a good udder.

In the spring of 2022, Scott Bohrson had an embryo sale off his two best red donors, Sammie and Sage. We were able to purchase all forty embryos off the great Sammie donor, and we are very happy we did. Sammie is a unique female who combines an outcross pedigree, awesome EPD profile, great udder, big square foot, and an attractive phenotype. Direct Sammie progeny have remained exclusive, but she has still managed to have a $110 000 son, and three daughters sell between $40 000 and $60 000.

HOMO POLLED, HETERO BLACK. This awesome haired, attractive yet masculine black baldy son of Hannibal has impressed us from the start. He’s very long bodied, but still bold in his hip shape and wide over his top. He stands square on all four feet and flexes well off both ends. Being a son of the deceased calving ease phenom, Hannibal, 176L ranks in the top 1% for CE and API, and 2% for BW and TI. A bull that combines so many calving ease treats with actual performance, we think 176L will be easy to find on sale day.

198L HOMO POLLED – 194L HOMO POLLED. We have been pretty excited about these two full brothers to the $110 000 Rancher for quite some time. Tycoon progeny look to excel in terms of muscle, body, performance, and carry that dark red colour. These two brother’s exhibit exactly that, and handle it well with a functional, sound structure and attractive presence.They’re good footed, performance bulls that are huge scrotalled, and extremely good on paper ranking in the top 20% for CE, 1-3% for WW, 4-15% for YW, and 3-10% for API and TI. Both of these bulls could’ve easily been in our fall show string, but we only took out 194L where he was named Reserve Intermediate Bull Calf at both Farmfair and Agribition. We also have a full sister in our replacement pen that is arguably one of the best females of our 2023 calf crop.

29L HOMO POLLED – 50L HOMO POLLED – 243L HOMO POLLED. No doubt a cross that we have been very excited about for quite some time, this trio of brothers did not disappoint. Walk the Line is the past $280 000 Friday Night Lights high seller, and his first calf crop has topped almost every sale this past fall, and almost every class or division at the major shows this past fall. I would expect these spring bull sales to be no different. We only let one full sister to these brothers go last fall, and she was our high selling female going to Jorgensen Land and Cattle for $46 000. These bulls exhibit great hair coats, awesome foot structure, muscle and dimension throughout, and are masculine yet smooth through their head, neck, and shoulder. Their genetic profiles read unlike any we have ever had, as they are in the top 5% of seven different EPD’s. 29L would carry the most frame and power throughout, with 50L being not far behind. The younger 243L is the most moderate bull with more visual calving ease, but has a very similar phenotype. We feel very confident in this set of brothers and look forward to showing them to you.

KJP MISS RUSYLVIA 46H DAM - PICTURE TAKEN TWELVE DAYS POST CALVING IN 2024 HOMO POLLED. It’s hard to know where to really start and end on a bull like 31L, as he truly is so hard to fault and combines so many traits that in our opinion make him unique and a definite game changer. First off, this bulls ability to continuously get better at every stage of his life has been fun to watch and we don’t feel he is at all slowing down. 31L is one big ended, wide pinned, muscular bull who is huge through his center body, and from the side is still so soft and deep in his lower rib. We love how he transitions from his wide body, into a bold fore rib and forearm, smooth shoulder, and wide chest floor. His crest and skull is smooth yet masculine; he has had that herd bull look from a young age. Now to handle it as well as he does is another thing, as structurally this bull is very accurate in the way he fills his track on the move and travels with such authority. People often assume our “show bulls” get treated differently than the rest, but that’s not the case. They stay on the same ration as the rest before, during, and after the shows, and have never got their feet trimmed just like the rest of the pen. 31L is currently our heavyweight in the entire offering, with an actual yearling weight of over 1500 lbs, and a weaning weight epd in the top 15% of the breed. His dam is a very high quality black blazed face female, with a ton of rib and body, good feet, and an awesome udder. We feel 31L’s performance driven, impressive phenotype, combined with an outcross pedigree for red cattle, make him one of the most intriguing bulls we have ever offered for sale.

HETERO POLLED. It’s tough to follow 31L, but if there were any bull to do it, 13L would be the one. Our lone son of the $102 500 Ava’s Scream, 13L is a rugged made, muscular, performance driven dude. He’s sound on the move and holds his head high with a “look at me” attitude. 13L’s dam is one of our oldest producing cows, and one we have built a very solid cow family off of. She’s a big bodied, dark red, good uddered cow who obviously has some longevity advantages. A maternal brother to 13L was the Legends of the Fall All Breeds Bull Calf Champion at Farmfair, and 13L was also a contender to have hung a halter this fall. We like this bulls combination of muscle, look, and structure.

He comes with just an 80 lb birth weight, and ranks in the top 30% for CE and 20% for BW. His dam is a maternal sister to our high selling black bull last year going to Section 17 Livestock.
It is such a pleasure working with the Black Gold operation. The energy and passion for the seedstock industry runs deep in all the Noble family. Each year they continue to have a selection of bulls that will move any program forward. The cowherd utilizes a year-round organic mineral program that is balanced to the cow’s requirements and feed sources. This supports proper bull calf health and development from a young age. The bull development program is built to maximize forage utilization and gut health. All forages are sampled and analyzed to ensure quality feed sources are used. Once the calves are weaned, they are slowly transitioned to a TMR. The TMR is forage based and is designed to promote lean muscle growth, allowing the bulls to express their genetic potential. Rumen health is of upmost importance, which is why suitable protein sources and proper starch levels are fed to the bulls. Black Gold uses a total nutrition program on their entire operation, ensuring optimal performance and health of their cattle. If you have any questions about the nutrition of the sale bulls, please feel free to call.
Good luck on sale day! 62

Holyfield is a past $72 000 high seller coming from the Ashworth program, that we were able to purchase alongside the Waltz family of W2 Land and Cattle. Holyfield is one of the longest bodied, best footed bulls we have ever used. In 2023, we bred every black first calver to Holyfield due to his calving ease, and the quality of his offspring. His first sire group isn’t huge in numbers, but we think it is a good representation of what he can do, as he is the sire of our feature red baldy show bull, 31L. We look forward to having a larger sire group in the future.

HOMO POLLED, HOMO BLACK TESTS PENDING. 245L is our only ¾ blood in this year’s offering. It is easy to see why the Simangus cattle are growing so popular, as the maternal strength and performance by these cattle are often second to none. 245L is a younger bull who has added depth of rib, structural integrity, hip shape, and look. I would assume the daughters this bull would leave behind would be his biggest attribute. 35F is a very nice half blood female, that is a daughter of our blazed face 10D donor. She has sons working for Darcy Eddleston and Dave Woywitka.

HOMO POLLED, HETERO BLACK. A personal favorite of mine in the black division is this son of our powerful 532C donor. We acquired the Canadian Semen Rights on the $230 000 KCC1 Countertime alongside Lewis Farms, and we are very happy we did. He sires added muscle shape, genuine width, and performance. 178L is very soft made, deep ribbed, with a ton of body and ideal foot and hind leg structure. This was the only calf we got from this mating, but we sure would like to replicate it again to produce more of 178L’s kind. 178L ranks in the top 10% for WW and 2% for YW. He offers a ton of maternal power behind him, a fresh pedigree, and overall quality. One that we think should receive serious consideration for a hetero black herd sire.

HOMO POLLED, HETERO BLACK. Another bull that we have had a close watch on for quite some time and really like what he has to offer. An extremely hairy, huge ribbed, wide pinned bull with a stout foot and rear leg. He has that herd bull look about his head and crest, with just a splash of white on his face, but is still smooth and attractive. His dam is the $62 000 valued Foxtrot, whose look, body, foot, and udder quality is undeniable. This cow is so impressive to look at, and we cannot wait to build around her kind. 197L combines a great EPD profile with his CE being in the top 15%, and actual performance with an adjusted yearling weight of over 1500 lbs. We think this is another Countertime son that deserves a second look, and one we are excited to offer.

HOMO POLLED, HETERO BLACK. Probably as much true muscle, hip shape, and center body width as any bull in the offering. 75L is a performance driven bull that has pushed the scales down at every point of his life. 125F is a past Friday Night Lights high seller going to our friends at Greenwood, and we were happy to stay a part of this huge bodied tank. She is perfect footed with a good udder, and has an overwhelming amount of rib and body. 125F and 75L were shown at a couple pen shows this summer, where they were Reserve at both the Vermilion Fair and Turtleford Fair. If you’re looking to inject power and performance into your calves, 75L might be the ticket.

BLACK GOLD SIMMENTALS BULL & FEMALE SALE
HOMO POLLED, HOMO BLACK. We are pretty excited to bring the first ever offering of sons from the great Triple-Crown Winning Hoya Hayleigh. We have always said she is so much more than a show heifer, and we think these trio of brothers will prove that. 305L is the youngest bull in the entire offering. All year, we said we were going to keep him to market at a later date due to his March 16th birth date. As time went on he continued to grow and grow and mature, and now you would never guess he’s over two months younger than a lot of the bulls. Another true performance son of Countertime, 305L ranks in the top two of our entire pen for adjusted weaning and yearling weight, and top 15% for both CE and YW. This guy is very long spined, big hipped, stout legged, and great haired. We loved watching this bull early on, when the ground was bare with dirt. His feet are so big and square and he flat out motors across the pen with ease. A full sister to 305L tops our replacement pen and is a contender to get a halter on her sometime in the future. Don’t overlook 305L due to his age, we feel he is a unique herdsire prospect.
256L HOMO POLLED, HOMO BLACK – 261L HOMO POLLED, HOMO BLACK. As we talk about mating decisions on Hayleigh, Caliber was one of the easiest bulls to use and we are sure happy we did. There is no doubt Caliber is currently the hottest bull in the breed, and for good reason, as both sexes of his offspring seem to excel in terms of power, body, look, and hair quality. These two brothers exhibit a powerful, easy doing body shape and depth of rib, with a very flexible structure and big solid feet. They are early maturing through their skull and crest and still rugged in their build. Once again, we have a full sister in the replacement pen that would be amongst the top, and was halterbroke early on. This pair of brothers would be on our younger end as well, but have sure impressed us as of late and think they are only getting better with time. The maternal genetics behind these bulls are truly remarkable combining the Supreme Champion 202Z who is nearing a million dollars in generating revenue, and the National Champion, Triple Crown winning Hayleigh, who produced over $300 000 in her first seven calves to hit the market.

BLACK GOLD SIMMENTALS BULL & FEMALE SALE
MATERNAL SISTER TO LOT 80 HOMO POLLED, HETERO BLACK. 23L is an absolute powerhouse that has stood out his whole life, despite only being a middle of February born. His added body, performance, and muscling is coupled with an awesome look from the side and a flexible build, with the biggest adjusted yearling weight of the offering reading 1605 lbs. He is the natural calf off Darlin 4H, and was born just a couple short months after she was named Supreme Female at Farmfair and went undefeated in the Simmental shows all fall, hence the bit of added birthweight. Darlin 4H is the ideal donor for us with a perfect udder, feminine look, awesome build, and powerful body shape with a deep sweeping rib cage. We love her kind and can’t wait to build around her. So far, four direct daughters have sold off 4H to average just shy of $30 000. On the top side, 23L goes back to the great Flirtin for Certain 37U donor from Ranciers, another past Supreme Champion at Farmfair. 23L was originally supposed to be retained at Twin Springs for use in their program, with the goal of possibly seeing a halter hung on him in the future, but both Twin Springs and ourselves are committed to offering our best. This guy has done nothing but get better his entire life, and no doubt will be one to find on March 9th.

HETERO POLLED. There was a lot of consideration whether this heifer should be in the spring or fall sale, as we are pretty high on her. 131L is a female that is hard to fault. She has the mass, shape, and attractive look we are striving to produce. Whoever looks past this one’s lighter colour is going to be very happy they did. The dam of 131L is a female we purchased a few years ago from Rendezvous Farms. She has been a good producer for us and has a great udder. A maternal sister sold in last year’s bull sale to Waco Cattle Co in North Carolina, and a maternal brother sold a couple years ago to John Joa of St. Walburg. Polled fullbloods that possess the quality and power of 131L can be challenging to find.

HOMO POLLED. Here is the first Ava’s Scream female we have ever offered for sale and 196L is a heifer we are quite high on. Our rookie calf crop out of Ava’s Scream was very small in size but we wish we had more of them. Ava’s Scream is our highest selling bull and sold a couple years ago to Robb Farms. 196L features lots of the same high quality features her dominant sire possesses. This black baldy is as long bodied and maternal looking as black gold avas scream 102j you can make them. 196L’s pedigree is a nice blend of elite cow families and SIRE performance. Combine that with Approvals calving ease and balance, you get a genotypically and phenotypically intriguing female.
