We welcome you to the 9th Annual RSK RAF Elite Genetics Online Bull Sale. The decision to move this year’s sale offering to an online only bidding platform was based on the fewer numbers that we have this year. We are pleased to be working with Farm Gate Timed Auctions on DLMS.ca and excited to have Scott and the Bohrson Marketing Service team involved in this year’s event. They have been through the bull pen and will be available to answer any questions about the bulls.

We are thrilled with this years Hereford and Angus bulls and the strength of this years pen. We are continuously building, raising and acquiring new genetics to build the quality of the RSK and RAF programs. Our emphasis is on breeding well rounded, balanced offspring based on quality genetics that promote improved structure, muscle pattern and efficiency. Our bulls are raised on a high forage ration with a Cargill pelleted supplement in order to promote longevity and do-ability. Being in Manitoba you can be assured of the toughness and hardiness of our bulls. They are forced to endure many extreme highs and lows in their environment. This we cannot control. One thing we can control is how we make breeding and management decisions in order to insure that we are getting the best production out of our herds, and that starts with the right bull.
