KWA FUTURE 3G
KUNTZ BARRACUDA 23H
2025 was a staple year in our program. We were so humbled by the success of last year's bull sale and, as always, loved hearing how well the bulls settled into their new homes and went to work! We've had great feedback on the progeny of bulls from previous years, pushing down scales as well as many females being retained and becoming functional cows. In October we had our inaugural fall sale, The Backdrop, featuring heifer calves, bred heifers, a prospect steer, and embryos. All of the live lots were halter broke and ready for juniors to take to shows. We couldn't be happier with the success of our first fall sale! Thank you hugely to our customers of The Backdrop, and to our bull customers, both new and old - we couldn't go on without your trust in our program! We also did something different this year - we have invested in some high-quality Hereford genetics. We look forward to this new venture, so stay tuned! All bulls have been double vaccinated with Pyramid 5, Vision 8, and Bimectin. The bulls have been slow-grown on a bull pellet, high-quality hay, and Rio-Max protein mineral tubs. Longevity and structure is extremely important to us - we want your bulls to last for as long as you need them to!
Ty-D Livestock
These flush brothers are two bulls that really excite us about getting back into the Fullblood game! We have a sister in the replacement pen at home as well. They're all short marked, dark red, and growthy! Their donor mother is a beautiful, gooduddered cow with a bright future ahead of her, and Battle Cry quickly gained huge influence in the industry - for good reason!
Ty-D Livestock
TY-D'S Alabama Cash 14N
14N is a big framed bull with a lot of performance. His sire, Cash, was shown very successfully throughout his whole career and gained a lot of fans with his sound structure and easy fleshing ability. Cash was sold to Daren Cheze but we still use him heavily in our program. We believe 14N has the
produce calves that push down the scales and travel for years on sound feet and legs.
TY-D'S Scarface 30N
30N has been one of our favourite bulls from the beginning. He's one of those honest type of bulls who will make someone a really nice herd sire. His mother is a young Ranch Hand daughter who really out produces herself. The 2211K bull has been such a great addition to our program. He sires calves with a conservative birthweight that grow at a great pace.
Ty-D Livestock
Vortex is a young calf who had no issues keeping with the older boys. There is a lot of maternal power wrapped up in this one! If udder quality is important to you in your program, here's your next herd sire. His sire is a sound made, big framed bull that ads length, bone, and style to his progeny.
TY-D'S Loyalty 16N
SIRE
Ty-D Livestock
This is one of the last chances to own a red purebred "Westy" son! Westy was a special individual who really did a lot for our program. His bulls have always performed with high expectations, and his daughters have made phenomenal cows carrying beautiful udders that also don't lose condition raising their first calves. 50N is a mid-March born calf - the youngest of the offering - and that hasn't deterred him from looking the part amongst the January bulls. Don't miss the opportunity to acquire this breeding piece!
TY-D'S Good Times 12N
HEIFER BULL! Good Times has been working really well for us on heifers - they come easy and grow well. 12N boasts a very moderate birthweight of 75lbs out of a first calf Westy heifer with a perfect udder, who didn’t drop any bit of condition raising her first calf. Maternal power and longevity is important to us - this guys' great grandmother still resides with us at 17 years old.
Ty-D Livestock
22N is a big-hipped, moderate framed bull. Next Century has sired some really nice calves for us and the daughters have been making really nice cows! 22N will be make an honest herd bull!
Ty-D Livestock
TY-D'S Northern Joker 29N
29N is out of a first calf SimAngus heifer, whose Angus mother is still producing for us at 14 years old. The females we are building off of our Angus cows are ones we are very proud of! 29N's sire is a bull we are extremely proud to have raised and we are confident in his abilities to produce more sons that are of
same caliber. Confidently invest in this baldy bull with a stacked pedigree.
TY-D'S Marlin 45N
HEIFER BULL! 45N is bred up from one of the best producing commercial Simmental cows we had. After proving herself a great producer in our commercial division, the decision to register her Blitz daughter was an easy one. Blitz was a direct son of the famous CAJS Elegant Force - who has overall progeny closing in on $1M. Blitz was a no-miss heifer bull and we feel that trait has carried down into 45N with his very conservative birthweight of 70lbs out of a second calver.

TY-D'S
Game Face 292D
18N
We really considered starting the catalogue with this SimAngus bull. This guy is good. He's been one of our absolute favourite bulls since day one! 18N is big framed, docile, and travels around on sound feet and legs. This bull is going to be a big time producer!
Warden boasts a lot of qualities from the Angus side with a shot more bone and hip from the Simmental side. His mother is an absolute unit of a cow and is genuinely one of our favourites. If you like a good Angus-type bull with a bit more jam, this is your guy!
8E has been a wonderful producer for us. She's a moderate framed cow that weighs up with the big girls. Her and her daughters raise some of the
framed calves every year! 28N is smooth-made and stands on a really sound foot. We love the way 2211K crosses on these Angus cows -
and go to work!
Don't get hung up on Mr Freeze's ears - this bull is flat good and more than earned his spot in the bull pen! This is another good Westy son out of an old Angus cow who's always raised big calves. 33N is a soggy bull who brings together the best qualities of both breeds.
Ty-D Livestock
The Westy cattle have been as honest as Westy himself. They come easy and grow like bad weeds. 302E has been a great little cow for us with daughters in production. 42N is quiet, sound, stout, and hairy. He's going to make a really nice herd bull!
SIRE OF LOTS 37 & 38
41N is a moderate-framed, brockle faced bull out of beautiful little 13-year-old SAV Pioneer cow. 21A has produced some really nice daughters for us that have been working really well in our program! 41N is a stout made bull with a lot of style.
Dam: SIMMENTAL/ANGUS
125N is a big middled, smooth shouldered bull. His mother is a commercial high % Simmental cow that earned her spot to run with the purebreds.
HWR Nelson 22N Ty-D Livestock
Start getting used to seeing some Hereford offerings in our sale! Nelson is stout, dark red and ready for a herd of his own! When our friends - The Almbergs - asked to put this guy in our bull pen, it was an easy yes. If you've heard of the Lazy HE Ranch, then you know the quality they seek in their herd bulls and know there's a good reason Aydon didn't steer this one!
