2016 Praire Hills Gelbvieh Bull Sale

SELLING 40 BULLS AND 10 PUREBRED HEIFERS

Hello and Welcome!

We would like to welcome everyone to our annual production sale. 2015 has been a year full of changes for our operation, and the cattle industry as a whole. While the market has shown some pressure over the last months, there are some things that have remained consistent. Good cattle will always demand a premium, and pounds will always pay the bills. We’re very excited about the set of animals we have for sale this year and what they offer to the cattle industry. As a group they have an average weaning weight of 776 pounds and many are above breed average in numerous carcass EPDs. With this in mind, we strive for a balance of traits that are necessary for a complete herd. Calving ease, maternal ability, disposition, as well as carcass traits are all important and are high on our culling criteria.

Galen and Marcia Sickler Family 10190 22nd Street SW Gladstone, ND 58630 Galen Sickler – 701-225-9212 (home) 701-690-6977 (cell)

Mother Nature made things interesting for us at calving this spring, giving us 70% heifers in both our natural and ET herds. We offered a group of these females at our fall female sale, and then realized that we are still overstocked.

We opened the gates to Chris & Randy with MMS and told them to go out and pick the 10 best heifers in the pen. They didn’t disappoint us and literally took the cream of the crop. This is something we’ve never done before and I think you’ll be impressed with the results. These are easily 10 of the best females to leave the ranch in one cut!

This year we made a change in the feeding and development program on all of the bulls. We have been working with the nutrionists at Biozyme/Vitaferm and have developed a forage based ration that allows the bulls to grow at a rate of 3 to 3.5 pounds per day, while still keeping them fresh and not getting overly fat. This has also allowed us to keep them on the same mineral program from conception through sale day. We’ve been very impressed with their performance to this point!

Klint and Maralee Sickler Family 2171 102nd Ave SW Gladstone, ND 58630 Klint Sickler – 701-483-5250 (home) 701-260-1853 (cell)

The sale will again be held at the sale facility at Klint & Maralee’s. All cattle will be sold by video, with the bulls and heifers available for viewing within feet of the sale facility. No live animals will be entering the building. We will have the videos available for viewing on our website (www.prairiehillsgelbvieh.com) and the MMS website (www.mms.bz). Any supplemental sale information will also be posted on these two sites. The animals will be available for viewing beginning at 12PM on Friday, February 12th, and 9AM Saturday, February 13th.

This year the sale will be broadcast on the internet through LiveAuctions.tv. This is a change from the company we’ve used in the past, so please make sure you’re approved prior to the sale if you’d like to bid online. We will also have people available if you choose to bid over the phone. Please contact Klint, Galen, or any of the MMS staff so arrangements can be made.

We would again like to thank everyone for their support over the years. Please stop by anytime to tour through the cattle and cow herd. If you have questions on any of the animals, please don’t hesitate to contact Galen, Klint, Chris or Randy.

Thank You! Galen and Marcia Sickler Family Klint & Maralee Sickler Family Prairie Hills Gelbvieh

Check out his real world performance – an 86 pound birthweight, and weaned of at an actual 926 pounds for a 114 weaning ratio. Phenotypically he would be right at home in the show ring. He’s incredibly long bodied, but still carries tremendous depth of rib and chest. With Payday being deceased, this could be one of the last chances to purchase one of his best sons. If we weren’t retaining a half brother, this guy wouldn’t be leaving the ranch!

PHG Candy Man C49 was our entry in the 2016 NWSS Bull Futurity. This sweet red calf was also the Reserve Bull Calf Champion at Agribition, and the lead off bull in our NWSS Pen of 3. Cool fronted and deep chested, he still exhibits awesome depth of rib while being straight and true in his lines. Get behind him and this bull is stout! Take a look at his real world performance and you’ll see that he comes with plenty of options. A 74 pound birth weight, coupled with a 812 weaning pegs him as a curve bender! His EPD profile puts him within the boundaries for all of the traits, with his Milk and Marbling numbers being above breed average. His pedigree is loaded with some of the most consistent genetics we’ve used – Payday, Xavier, and Fighting Irish. If you’re craving Consistency, Power, and Eye Appeal, in an outcross package, you need to see the Candy Man! Retaining ½ semen interest.

C30’s dam is part of our donor line-up, with her previous calves topping our sale and the ND Golden Rule sale. Cherokee was on track for the show pen all summer, but got sick in August. After he got healed up he still came in with an 806 actual weaning weight and hasn’t slowed down a bit. If you’re looking for predictability, they don’t get much better than Payday and 755T!

Cash Wise is a power bull with as deep a chest as any bull in the sale. This guy is made right with an 856 pound weaning weight. Looking at his EPDs, he is above average on ribeye and marbling! To make things even better, his mother has an ideal udder. Great combination of power and performance, in a maternal package.

Costanza comes from one of Klint’s favorite cows. She was purchased out of the Kreigh dispersion in Minnesota and traces back to a powerful VanderVorst female. We swung for the fences the first year breeding her to Payday, and she delivered. He carries all of the Payday money making traits, but has a solid EPD profile as well. Looking at the numbers, he’s top 1% for WW, 3% for YW, 2% for CW, 10% for TM and 15% for Marbling! The Beech Jet daughters have been wonderful performers for us over the years – couple this with Payday and the daughters you retain will write their own page in history.

Canuck C17 holds the distinction of having the heaviest weaning weight this year, coming off his dam in October at 924 pounds (114 ratio)! He also has the honor of being born on one of the coldest days of the year (-38F), and his ears and tail show it. It’s easy to look past that when you consider the power that this bull has, while still only posting an 86# birthweight. Remember that no matter what the cattle market does, pounds will always pay the bills!

Sucker Punch was one of the most popular bulls in the barn when we showed him as a coming 2 and 3 year old. C57’s dam is a Womanizer daughter out of a VG female we imported from Canada. This is about as outcross of a pedigree as you could ask for! Retaining ½ Semen Interest.

Counter Punch has been a favorite of ours since birth. He has been in the show string and has placed well. He has a stylish head and neck and yet blends smoothly into his shoulder What is most impressive is his width of top, and the thickness of his rear quarter.

After he came home in October with an actual weaning weight of 840 pounds, we added him to the Denver string as our pen alternate. He definitely caught on quick and is averaging a 5.1 ADG.

Bakken decided to only give us 1 bull calf this year, and that’s Lot 39. He picked the right cow to cross with though. 522R is the dam of the high selling female at the 2014 Wish List sale that sold to BNH Livestock from Alberta. Bakken wrote his own page last year by siring the high selling bull in this sale for $16,500 to Moe Gelbvieh. Combining these two was a no-brainer! If you want your calves to have a little extra zip at birth, and punch down the scales at weaning, Lot 39 is your answer.

This eye catching female is sure to get your attention on sale day. Clean fronted, wide topped, and with an awesome rib - she has future donor written all over her. Her sire needs no introduction as he’s the great COLB Xavier X812 that has shared herd sire duty at Prairie Hills, Royal Western, and Towerview. She’s a 75% by registration, so she opens the door to being able to produce either purebreds or Balancers. Charisma sells halter broke and has already tasted the winners circle, being slapped as Reserve Champion Balancer Female at the 2015 Agribition show. Truly a female that is loaded with potential!

Lot 42 is an awesome double black female out of Super Flex and an Xavier sired dam.

Super Flex only gave us one calf crop before we lost him to an injury. These Super Flex daughters are going to be in high demand if what we’ve seen so far is any indication.

They all exhibit the same soft middle, deep rib, and nice clean front. I could see this heifer having a successful show career for the right junior and then moving into the front pasture.

It’s no secret that we’ve become big fans of Beech Jet sired females. As a group they have become one of the most consistent set of females on the ranch. We flushed PHG U02 to Beech Jet to double down on the maternal power of Irish with Beech Jet - C501 is the result. We thought about showing her this fall, but you can only break so many heifers.

If you’re looking for a female loaded with maternal potential, backed by proven genetics, here’s your girl.

There haven’t been many Payday daughters to leave the ranch in the last 5 years – 2 of them to be exact. We haven’t sold many Payday’s because they are flat awesome performers. The daughters have nearly perfect udders and get it done when it comes to raising a calf. Lot 47 is an ET mating of Payday to 153R, making her a full sister to the dam of Lot 50. There’s not much more we can say about this cross, other than you won’t be disappointed!

C59 is the natural Yukon daughter out of the JRI P625 donor cow. P625 is one of the most youthful aged cows that we’ve seen – so much that the AGA has her pictured on their website with calf at side as a 10 year old. C59 is well balanced in conformation as well as her EPD’s. A great opportunity to own a piece of a storied cow family.

C32 is one of the first Jackson daughters to sell at auction. We used Jackson on a variety of different females his first year and he stamps his females all the same – moderate framed, straight lined, and easy moving. You also have to appreciate the attitude of the Jackson calves. They’re always the first to come over and say Hi when you walk into the pen. Lots of potential here.

We’ve retained quite a few Bakken daughters and will be calving the first this spring.

In a normal year, Cover Girl C61 would never leave the ranch. Normally she would be shown in Denver, but having pen bulls changed our plans this year. She’s everything we would expect out of a mating of Yikes on a Payday daughter – she’s smooth where she’s supposed to be, thick in all the right places, and still keeps her feminine lines. A female that will definitely be heard from again down the road, and one that we are going to miss!
