On behalf of our Spring Creek family I welcome you to our annual In Pursuit of Perfection Bull Sale. Thank you to our customers, many of you good, solid repeat buyers, and some of you young couples just starting out on your exciting journey. Welcome to all of you and thank you for your interest in our bulls and our program. I believe that cultivating good relationships based on integrity and mutual respect will result in a win for all of us! As I once again sit down to share my thoughts with you, what first comes to mind is that our bull selection and diversity has never been better. Whether you are looking for Simmental, Black Angus or Sim/Angus; blaze or solid color; calving ease or performance bulls, we have it all here. All of our bulls are Homo Polled, and the black bulls are identified for coat color status. Here at Spring Creek our bulls are developed gently as we strive to provide herd bulls that work in today’s industry under real-world conditions. As breeders, our work begins long before your bull of choice is born, carefully layering genetics that will result in ideal females that will produce the kind of bulls that will make a difference for you at year end. For almost fifty years our cowherd has been selected for optimal body type and size, concentrating on udder quality, soundness, fertility, and disposition. Their sons are thick sire prospects with lots of hair and testicle. I am especially proud of the sons of our two flush cows, Springcreek Brooke 68Z and Springcreek Abbey 99E. They have provided feature bulls for both the Red and Black Simmental sections. Our Angus section is the strongest to date. I am known more for my Simmental cattle, but there are definitely breeder bulls available here for the Angus seed stock industry. I invite interested parties to study the depth and quality of my Angus herd. The majority of the bulls are sired by Mindbender and I am proud of their uniformity and their attractive phenotype. Once again we have six of the popular Sim/Angus bulls, also sired by Mindbender. Events in 2020 have thrown all of us a curve ball, but we remain optimistic. Our industry has had a very successful fall sale season. We appreciate our livestock business and living in the country. As the calendar turns to a new year, may you and your family find good health and an appreciation of what truly matters. Our family continues to grow. Dan and his wife Olga run a thriving business at IJack Technologies in Moosomin where he designs and markets oilfield product innovations. Olga is also a photographer. They have three children: Vivian, John and Kate. Sean is Chief Data Scientist at IJack; he works out of Calgary. His wife Simina is a banking lawyer and partner with Burnet, Duckworth and Palmer. They have two sons, Jack and Shea. Our daughter Lauren is an area manager for Sterling Homes in Calgary, selling new builds. Charlie Power wears #46 for the Stampeders when they play, and runs three businesses in Edmonton and Calgary with his dad and his brother. Grandma Frances turned 101 in December. She continues to live in her house on the farm. As our Bull Sale approaches I wish to acknowledge Neels and Gerrit, who help run the ranch from day to day, season to season. The more they do, the less I do, and the more I like it! We are also pleased to be working with the good people from T Bar C, Bohrson Marketing, and DLMS. They provide an invaluable service and are very professional. Sarah Buchanan, Golden Thread Livestock Images, will be providing video of the bulls. Given the uncertainty in these times, we would encourage pre-sale tours. If attending the sale isn’t in your plans, please make arrangements with us or any one of the above professionals.
We are, as always - In Pursuit of Perfection! Brian McCarthy

InPursuit of Perfection Bull Sale 2021
Brian McCarthy has done it once again with an excellent set of bulls on offer that are sure to impress, with consistency and quality throughout. Spring Creek is regarded as one of the best cow herds in the business and when you are able to pump out a set of bulls like this, you’ll certainly understand why. The power is in the blood and it is impressive the amount of sheer quality that these genetics carry as they are consistently hairy, thick, deep made, dense, attractive herd bulls that have outstanding muscle shape and overall balance with herd bull character. 81 high quality bulls are on offer from Spring Creek for 2021 and we are all in agreement that this is the deepest set of bulls this highly respected program has ever offered. During our summer tour, we were taken back with the quality of bulls throughout and the options seemed endless for outstanding bulls to source. The Red, Black & SimAngus divisions are extremely powerful as always and the power is bred into them as this program has always pushed the scale down with weaning weights and never sacrificed quality. The Angus have elevated once again as this is a consistent and excellent set of bulls backed by leading maternal sires in the business and the same quality is evident in this strong group as across the fence in the Simmental division.

From the desk at T Bar… Welcome to the 16th Annual “Pursuit of Perfection” Bull Sale on March 11, 2021 at the Spring Creek Ranch, Moosomin, Saskatchewan. COVID-19 has changed many things but the one thing it cannot change is the powerful, predictable cow herd Brian has developed at Spring Creek over the decades. “The Pursuit of Perfection” bull sale has been a source of many of the top bulls offered for sale year after year. In addition to the leading sires, customer service, unlike any other, comes with every bull sold at Spring Creek, you do not just buy a bull… you buy a program complete with a “customer satisfaction guarantee!” Among the eighty-five bulls offered are Reds, Blacks, Baldies, Sim/Angus and Black Angus sire prospects. All homo polled, this rugged group of yearlings are optimal in frame size, come loaded with muscle, volume, and hair. Whether you are a purebred breeder looking for that “next one” or a commercial cow calf operation needing to move their program forward, this large genetically diverse offering is full of shopping opportunities. Remember that the strong Spring Creek cow herd is maternally dominant… so your bulls give you two main benefits… you will keep all their daughters for replacement pastures while increasing weaning weights on the male counterparts. The “Pursuit of Perfection” Bull Sale is a must to attend as you will add value to your breeding program. Feel free to stop by the ranch anytime prior the sale and preview the bulls and have a peek at the mothers… it will be worth the drive. Do not hesitate to give Brian a call to discuss the offering and which bulls would be suitable for your breeding intentions. Plan to be with us for this feature bull sale in person or online! During these times, feel free to call anyone on our T Bar C Team to discuss or purchase any of the cattle offered. We have graded each individual and will be pleased to assist in a professional and confidential manner. Chris Poley

In Pursuit of Perfection Customer Care Programs IPOP Bull Sale “Live Long Bull Warranty” The goal of this program is again to work with our customers in sharing the risk on bulls that will not work based on factors out of their control. We also want to take more responsibility in seeing a bull through to maturity and ensuring things like feet and legs stand up. A bull purchase is a major investment not just for the future of your herd but in the expectation of a longer productive life of the animal. We also assume there is risk past year one, even though most bulls are only insured in their first year of service. We want to work with our customers through to maturity. If the IPOP Bull Sale “Live Long Bull Warranty” is initiated, it will be paid out in the form of a credit towards the purchase of a bull in the subsequent year’s sale. Purchaser must notify Spring Creek Simmentals, (306) 435-3590 immediately of any problems with or death of a purchased bull(s). Purchaser must employ a licensed veterinarian to treat, diagnose and/or fill out a vet form. If the animal dies, a postmortem may be required. Injury or death due to malicious, wilful or intentional acts or mistreatment by the purchaser or his employees is a fraudulent claim. In the event of mortality of a purchase bull, the seller’s credit responsibility will be limited to $20,000.00/bull or the purchase price if less. Buyers are responsible for their own mortality insurance on individual purchase prices over $20,000.00. Our goal is to ensure customer satisfaction and to help protect your investment through to maturity. We are your partner in business! Breeding Season One Bull fails/dies -Buyer receives full credit less salvage price if any Breeding Season Two Bull fails/dies - Buyer receives 50% credit on purchase price less salvage value if any Breeding Season Three Bull fails/dies - Buyer receives 25% credit on purchase price less salvage value if any Breeding Season Four Bull fails/dies in fourth or subsequent years - No warranty available IPOP Volume Incentive “Go big and go home happy” Program This simple program is designed to support our customers who need to make multiple bull purchases in one season. Our same customer may not be interested in travelling hundreds of miles to get it done. Discounts will only apply to bulls that are paid for in full on sale day. Absentee buyers will have a 30 day extension for their discount. Partnership bulls will not apply. We want to facilitate and reward your efforts! Purchases 2 Bulls – 3% Volume Discount 5 Bulls – 10% Volume Discount 3 Bulls – 5% Volume Discount 6 Bulls or more – 12% 4 Bulls – 8% Volume Discount
The U.S. exchange rate will be announced prior to the sale.

A $300.00 US charge per animal will be paid by the purchaser at the time of settlement for their purchase. 2) For buyers from the North Eastern States, all purchases will be sent to H.S. Knill Co. Ltd, Paris, Ontario as soon as possible after the sale. Purchaser will then deal with the H.S. Knill trucking company. Knills will then do all health tests, customs paperwork, permits and make trucking arrangements; a process with which they are very familiar. The buyer is responsible for all costs incurred by H.S. Knill Co. Ltd. (519) 442-3106. 3) For buyers from the North Western States, health testing will be done at the Spring Creek Ranch and purchases will then be picked up by H.S. Knill Co.

This is one of my very top bulls. If I were judging his pen, he would be hard to get around. His adjusted weights are over 900 lbs and nearly 1600 lbs. He has a good scrotal, is clean sheathed, and is very thick, with lots of middle. All of this in a Homo polled, homo black, baldy package. His dam just didn’t miss in her flushes. Retaining 100 doses of semen.

Every individual calf born from the ‘Structure x 99E’ cross was a good one. This doesn’t always happen. This may be the most loveable ‘pet’ we have ever raised! He will come to you on command! He has a little more birth weight, but he came out of a big cow that was dry the previous year. I think this adds to birthweight. Also, the research has shown us that IVF embryos are prone to more birthweight which isn’t transmittable or part of their genetic makeup.

This fella has had as many admirers in the pasture and the pen as any of the prospects. Blaze faced, homo polled/ homo black, out of a big bodied flush dam. I went back in the past a little and selected Advance to use on a flush as I just felt this combination would click. And it did, resulting in four calves and they are all top notch. If you have the time, take a trip to the open heifer pasture and see his two full sisters.

I could list a host of reasons why you should consider this son of Liner 56U and Springcreek Brooke 68Z. The influence of Brooke 68Z can easily be seen in her progeny and that of her sons. They all have that structural correctness and that proud look. Udder quality in 114H’s progeny has to be exceptional given his parents. This offering is a full brother to Springcreek Launch 110E (Meadow Acres) and Springcreek Ladies Man 90E (Northern Lights/Sun Rise). It will be hard to find a stronger, more proven pedigree. No skeletons in the closet here! Retaining 100 doses of semen.

This is a very interesting package. Combining Liner 56U and Brooke 68Z will work. It will be nice to see Brooke 68Z’s influence in the black business. The EPD’s on this individual are really impressive, in fact even more so than his red full brother, reflecting genomic enhancement. His gestation was 285 days. CE 7.8

This baldy has a very nicely balanced set of EPD’s. His Lotto dam is a maternal sister to Denali. She has calved every year in January and her only two daughters have been retained. A feature son sold last year to Robert Ellingson in SD. Another son sold to 7L Ranch Ltd at Lakeland, MB. I have a lot of baldy bulls this year, and he is one of the best. His gestation was 281 days.

I believe 99H will be a valuable breeding piece. I am anxious to put some Spark Plug genetics into the black side of the business. He is very deep bodied, and wide hipped and blaze faced to boot. His dam was a purchase from Double Bar D, and goes back to a good Power Drive cow. Captain Morgan progeny have left a very positive mark on the commercial industry. Spark Plug is as good as, if not the best sire I have ever used for udder quality in his daughters. His gestation was 288 days. Retaining 100 doses of semen. CE 5.7

Redford is line bred to Springcreek Brooke 68Z. I can’t help but think this will mean tremendous prepotency in his breeding ability. He has all the bells and whistles also: darker red, blaze faced, good scrotal and eye appeal. Retaining 100 doses of semen.

This is my top bull in my opinion, and if he were not a 722 1476 Mindbender son, I would also be retaining an interest in him. His EPD’s are very versatile and he comes from an excellent cow family. In fact his dam, grand dam and great grand dam are all still producing in my herd. This is a rare opportunity to see three generations of dams of a prospective herd sire purchase. This situation would mean the world to me when assessing a bull’s true breeding value and prepotency! The grand dam and great grand dam also have bulls in this sale, RRAR 13H and RRAR 51H. He started at 70 lbs at 275 days gestation and went on to have a very good yearling weight. The Angus bulls were only creep fed for a month prior to weaning. He is large scrotalled and thick! BW 1.3

His dam was a high selling open at the Mountain View dispersal by Black Sand Cattle Co. and myself. She has been very productive, calving every year and she has another coming this year. One of her two daughters sold to Robin Hogberg, where she went on to raise one of his high selling bulls. The other daughter resides in Quebec, as she sold to Jean-Francois Leblond. This prospect may be a sleeper herd bull in the making.

His dam is the oldest cow in my herd. Her daughter and granddaughter also have sons in this sale. This young son should be a good one.

Selling ½ interest, ½ possession. The buyer will take possession on May 1st of each year and the seller will winter the bull every year. This bull covers a lot of territory for me. His fresh pedigree and his top notch EPD’s are what is required. He combines excellent phenotype and can be used in the heifer pen and/or on cows. He had a short gestation of 271 days. His quiet, beautiful dam has calved every January, weaning one of the best. Both of her daughters have been retained and her 2019 son was my best bull calf that year, but was lost just before weaning. Her Final Answer dam was my top cow in her day and the foundation for my ‘Jaybird’ cow family.
