Welcome to our 2023 sale! We are very excited to be

offering our Limousin bulls off the ranch this year through the DLMS FarmGate format. We look forward to displaying this year’s bull group at our open house on March 12, 2023 in the afternoon. We invite you to not only assess the bulls but as well search out their mothers and siblings. Videos can be viewed at CattleVids (scroll to March 14). While Farm Gate is a new sale format to us all, we will make every effort to ensure your purchase is made easily.

We would be remiss not to recognize the support, talent and friendship of Jill Renton. In the spring, Jill juggled her DLMS duties and helped us during calving though Mom’s illness and passing. Her expertise in photography, ad design and seedstock counsel all help us develop our program. Jill’s craft and camaraderie is something we feel blessed to have.

Give us a call if you have any questions about the bulls or the FarmGate format.

While selecting our Ag in Motion string, 13J wandered up for a sniff that turned into a pat, that ended up as a leg lifting scratch. 13J is so docile that he became our single display booth animal at the Ag in Motion Farm Show. This Paynes Cracker son is out of a Tref Zipper cow, he has exceptional length and a big hip to complement his calm demeanor.

4J is one of our first black bulls on offer. He is a Tref Freewheeling son out of a Cracker daughter, going back to Clayton’s pet cow, that he bought from our friends at Pinnacle View Limousin. Although 4J sports an 85 lb birthweight and a low birthweight EPD, we think he is better suited to duty on cows rather than the heifer pen.

“I have admired Limousin cattle for a long time. I never thought they could be this quiet.” -Cattleman, Marvin Dale of Coleville, SK See you at Ag In Motion 2023 July 18 – 20, 2023. Langham, SK 13

Reference Sires

B BAR/HAWKEYE OSCAR 1E ET Oscar is a son of the renown Richmond Zodiac, a cornerstone herd bull of the Richmond Ranch. On the female side is the well known B Bar Foxtrot.

The combination of these two individuals raised the bar in the Limousin breed in terms of traditional muscle shape, hair and performance. Oscar is a heavy scurred, rugged breeding bull that will see active pasture service as a 6 year old. Owned with Conner Bros. - Hanna, AB Sire to JDA 17J, JDA 21J

B BAR/HAWKEYE STING 47F ET In an attempt to make our cow herd more uniform, we partnered with our friends at Pinnacle View Limousin on the Sting bull. During his first breeding season the Oscar bull so impressed us in terms of conception and the way he kept his condition along with his incredible sound structure, we knew we wanted his brother. This hetero polled full brother to the Oscar bull has over 280 half siblings in the CLA handbook, relating to how popular these genetics are withinour breed. Sting offspring are moderate framed, heavily muscled, more traditionally colored and docile. JDA 14J, JDA 22J, JDA 36J, JDA 38J, GJA 139J, GJA 145J, GJA 154J We are very proud of the way this pair of herd bulls have consistently produced on our Zipper and Slate females.

B BAR SLATE 17C In this offering there has been a “changing of the guard” in terms of our herd sire pen. Both the B Bar Slate and the Tref Zipper bulls have been retired after active service leading our program.Slate’s influence will live on through the docility and overall exceptional females in terms of udder structure and easy doing ability.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN A FARMGATE TIMED SALE www.farmgatetimedauctions.ca/auction

After you are on the FarmGate Timed auction site click the LOGIN/REGISTRATION button.

FIRST TIME FARMGGATE USERS First time users will select the REGISTER button from this page. Fill out the registration form to sign up for a free user account and it allows you to select a username and password for use on all Farm Gate Timed auctions. (Please note due to some of the text notification features the FarmGate Timed Auction Site requires a new account separate account from your DLMS Live sale site).

After you create your FarmGate account you will receive a text message with a pin code to verify your account.

On your first log in to FarmGate Timed auctions we recommend you go to your profile and confirm your notifications are set to YES. This allows the site to send you text and/or email notifications when you are out bid and if there is activity on your favorite lots.

RETURNING FARMGATE USERS If you have used FarmGate Timed auctions in the past simply enter your username and password to continue. After you have logged in you are able to browse the timed auctions on DLMS FarmGate Timed Auctions.

HOW TO BID IN A TIMED AUCTION Now that you are logged in and your account phone number/email is verified you can bid on an upcoming sale. Simply find the lot you are interested in bidding on. After you have found the lot there are two options for bidding on the lot.

Place Next Bid – to place the next bid on the item, you see the amount in the first box, you simply click the “Place Bid” button and after you review the bid and agree to the terms and conditions your bid will be placed.

Max Bid Amount – to place a max bid you put your max bid in the second box listed as “Max Bid” on the item, and then click the “Place Bid” button and after you review the bid and agree to the terms and conditions your bid will be placed as the next bid. With the Max Bid placed the computer will then keep you as the high bidder to the max amount you have placed. This can be a great feature if you are not able to give 100% attention to the sale close out and protect your interest, so you do not miss out on any lots you want to purchase. The Max Bid amount is completely confidential from the seller during the sale process.

Example of How the Max Bid Works - If the lot has a $2000 bid on it and you place a proxy bid of $3500 into the system, the computer will bid $2100 for you but if someone else bids $2200, the computer will again bid for you, this time at $2300. The system will look after your interest to a maximum of $3500. If another bidder is on at $3600, your proxy will no longer be effective, and you will no longer have the winning bid on this lot without once again logging in and bidding again or moving your attention to a second lot of interest. Please note that in some cases value on a lot can change very quickly if two max bids are placed on the same lot competing against each other.

SALE ENDING / CLOSE-OUT Most FarmGate Timed Auction sales close racehorse style with extended bidding. What is Racehorse Style Close? Racehorse style sale close is when the entire sale stays open in extended bidding. This type of sale allows you as the bidder to change to a different lot within the same sale if the bidding has gone into extended bidding. How will Extended Bidding work? When we get to the close-out end-time, the clock for close extends with any bid placed with less than 5 min on the clock. This type of extended bidding turns the end time to more of a soft time. Extended bidding allows bidders to compete in lots like a real auction and give all bidders the same time to make a decision. Always follow the clock to see how much time remains in the sale you are interested in.

BIDDING CLOSE & FOLLOW-UP After the clock has gone to “ENDED” and no bidding has occurred for 5 mins the computer will declare the sale finished. Following the close, typically within 24 hours of the sale close, the sale consignor will contact all winning bidders to arrange payment, transfer of pedigrees and delivery/pick up of your lot. Or as the winning bidding you can contact the sale consignor to confirm payment instructions.

Please make sure that your account info is up-to-date and correct if you are the winning bidder of a lot as this is how the billing is sent to sale manager and/or sale consignor.

Mom was born to a coal mine owner’s family in Wayne, Alberta. She was the ninth of ten children in a devoutly Catholic household. Mom and Dad met at the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) dances in Drumheller. While it was not love at first sight, sparks grew to a flame and flame to a fire resulting in their marriage in the fall of 1956.

They purchased that year the beginnings of the ranch in Youngstown in the middle of the Special Areas, half way between Calgary and Saskatoon. The area then and many say still is recovering from the Great Depression. The area had no electricity, therefore no running water, indoor plumbing or telephone. A terrible hardship for us today, but because everyone in the neighborhood was in the same boat, the strength that was built into our community at that time is something that we still have today.

Mom and Dad worked together to develop their farm, building fences, rebreaking homesteaded land, combining crops and putting up feed.

They moved in a house when our family outgrew the original 2 room cabin. During the summer that their last child was born an addition was added on, Mom was in charge of cooking for 15 (10 of us, a carpenter crew of 3, hired man and house helper) but the prize of an extension that doubled our living space was a great reward.

The next year in 1970 the European “Exotic” Invasion began and Mom took an AI course to get in on the excitement of improving our herd.

We enrolled in the Canadian Beef Sires Program and had the legendary Bob Prestige as a mentor. Through the trials of many different breeds, we found Limousin to be the best suited to our area and management skills.

As Greg and I began ranching and buying properties, Mom was always behind us with her advice and support. Her wonderful cooking was a highlight of any event, be it family gatherings, brandings, weaning, preg checking or trail drives. Her pies were legendary.

Mom raised us in the Catholic faith. Mass on a weekly basis was non-negotiable. Mom’s faith was lived in the way she challenged us every day to do what was right. Her standard of making people welcome, sharing with others and dropping what was important to her to make others successful was just what she did. She lived the gospel every day through her actions rather than words. We are all better because of her example.

Mom had a saying I think of often, “We had each other, and we had a dream. Who could ask for anything more?”

Rest in Peace Mom.
