Our Family would like to extend, a big welcome to our new and independent “Bulls from the Heart” 2019 Sale. Our appreciation & thanks to you and your family’s interest and trust in our program through previous sales over the years, has given us the confidence and resolve to make this happen. We are also excited to have in our sale, a truly strong Black bull offering from a cow herd that we have, on shares, with our good friends at U2 Ranch. As always, our focus remains our commercial cow/calf producer, and their ability to annually improve their bottom line. Part of how we develop and breed out our program is from customer feedback, with the greatest concern towards understanding their markets and how our customers are using our bulls for the most benefit. As many of our home ranch visitors can attest, we have a very robust, balanced, & progressive cow herd where feet & udders are paramount. This allows us to produce consistent strong sire groups from across our herd each year. They specifically push efficiency on grass and feed conversion; lowering the producers cost/lb of gain. If you are in the market for one or many bulls, we can accommodate your needs. Our drive remains the perennial quest to produce easy fleshing, muscular cattle, all with easy calving high maternal traits on a great foot, lending to strong offspring performance & profitability. We invest heavily in walking Sires ourselves and we rarely use any AI unless on previously proven bulls, so this ensures we are A: offering bulls that are dependable with real world functionality, and B: we can stand behind both the fertility and genetic traits. These bulls have been fed responsibly with their future longevity foremost in mind through muscle, shape, and the intention to have the necessary condition to go to work in your herd this year. We feel this is our most consistent and strongest group of bulls we have brought to town yet. They are ranch ready! Our family would like to make one final big far western Thank You to all Angus & other breed producers who came to the Comox Valley for the Canadian Angus Associations National Convention, in June last year. It was a Hoedown for the history books! We have some excellent help for the sale this year from all the staff at BC Livestock, to our listed consultants, they are all here to assist you both on the ground, on the phone, or on-line in any way you need. Please feel free to contact any of us regarding the offering at any time, we’d be happy to have a visit. Hope to see you on sale day, and please join us for a BBQ & social after the final hammer drops!
