Welcome to our 13th November Gold Sale! We couldn’t be more excited to bring you this set of calves! Every year we say we think we have brought our best set yet, and I think as cattle producers that is what we all strive for- to keep putting our best foot forward and improving our herds year after year.
This cattle market is on fire! Never in our life time did we think we would see highs like this! From small calves, to heavy calves, to cull cows and bulls- you can’t miss. What an exciting time to be in the cattle business! We have saved high quality steers and heifers for you all this year. We have calves for all ages and all levels of competition. We truly believe if you flip through these pages, you will find a calf suited for your needs. Please do not hesitate to reach out to any of the consignors with any questions you may have- we would love to talk cattle with you! We have stuck to our guns the last 13 years and consistently brought our best to town, and this year is no exception.
It was another outstanding year for our November Gold Juniors! We saw Club Champions and Regional Champions across Saskatchewan and Alberta. We saw many Jackpot Champions, and many steers and heifers at Junior Shows throughout the year stand in the final drive. We also saw many young and first time members get through the ring themselves. You don’t have to win a ribbon for us to be proud- they are just icing on the cake. We had 5 steers in the Calgary Stampede this year and that was very exciting for us all! So to our Juniors and their families, we extend a huge thank you to you all for getting these calves down the road and doing a heck of a good job!
This year will look a little different for us with a new Auctioneer on the block. We would like to welcome Kolton McIntosh from Eriksdale, Manitoba to our crew. We all look forward to working with Kolton and are excited for what he brings to the table. With that, we owe a huge thank you to our good friend and Auctioneer, Mike Fleury. With over 40 years on the block, Mike has retired and is enjoying his time with his family. We will miss you Mike, but wish you all the best- you have earned it!
We look forward to seeing you all in Lloyd at their wonderful facility this Oct.18th! Make sure to mark the date in your calendar for another exciting group of steers and heifers. A group worth waiting for!

ARCH NACHO 639N SIRE/ HOW GREAT THOU ART DAM/ RUBY 227D (UNSTOPPABLE) DOB/ FEB.2 CONSIGNED BY ARCH HOLDINGS
Nacho was Champion Prospect Steer at both the Perdue and PA Fair this year. He very well may be the best steer we have ever raised. So impressed by this calf, we flushed his Dam this way this spring. Nacho is everything we like in a steer- big boned, big footed, big hipped, big topped, big middled- BIG TIME. He is sound- he can get out and move. He is as hairy as you can make them and as quiet as they come. The potential is endless for this calf. We are very excited to see where this year will take him.
ARCH DONNIE 643N
SIRE/ HERE I AM DAM/ 145B (SIMMENTAL) DOB/ FEB.14 CONSIGNED BY ARCH HOLDINGS
Here I Am cranked out both Champions at the Calgary Stampede this year, and this Here I Am steer continues to impress us each day. He comes out of one of our ultimate favorite commercial Simmy cows 145B. She is an Earley Livestock cow that has had almost every calf she has produced grace the November Gold Sale ring. We are hoping for a heifer before her career of a herd matron comes to an end! Donnie has that show steer look- huge fuzzy ears, big stout hip, big top and a tremendous hair coat. We feel Donnie has as much potential as any steer we have ever offered through this sale ring. Have a look here- this guy has all the right pieces.
ARCH CHEESE 611N SIRE/ ORANGE CRUSH DAM/ 467K (STEAM ROLLER) DOB/ JAN.11
CONSIGNED BY ARCH HOLDINGS
Rifled around deep in the AI tank this year and pulled out one of the original orange bulls- Orange Crush. He can still do it. Cheese is just a good honest steer. Really is hard to poke a hole in this guy He is stout, big topped, long bodied and big boned with a huge foot under him. He is so very quiet and would be great for any age. Good haired and nice headed- we think Cheese has endless potential.
ARCH CHEETO 640N
SIRE/ WALKS ALONE DAM/ 224D (SIMMENTAL) DOB/ FEB.7 CONSIGNED BY ARCH HOLDINGS
Another one to prove that old clubby genetics can still get it done. Walks Alone will always be one of our favorite sires to use. He has yet to disappoint us. Cheeto is stout- big hipped, soft middled, big topped, good haired and can move. He likes to eat and we think he will feed out well to be competitive. His cherry red color and big fuzzy ears will be sure to get you noticed!
ARCH GATOR 641N
SIRE/ I AM HERE
DAM/ PICK 711E (MAINE)
DOB/ FEB.12

Gator is out of a big maine cow we purchased from Pick Six cattle. This cross just clicked for us. This I Am Here steer has impressed us since he was a baby. He is so good natured, making him a dream to work on. He is very long bodied and profiles very nice. We really admire his front 1/3, with a nice smooth shoulder and great neck extension. He has an awesome hair coat and will be a fun one to show!
ARCH ELVIS 638N

DOB/ JAN.31
CONSIGNED BY ARCH HOLDINGS
Good old Tom Selleck can still get it done. We love the feedablilty and temperaments of our Tom calves. They love to eat, grow well, and make the best buddies. Elvis is a steer that we really admire his natural muscle pattern and overall look. He has a really nice front end and is huge hipped. He is good natured and we think this guy will feed easy and make someone a great 4H steer.
ARCH JIM BOB 642N
SIRE/ GRIZZ 56K (CCLT ALLIANCE)
DAM/ KATIE (I-67) DOB/ FEB.14 CONSIGNED BY ARCH HOLDINGS
Jim Bob is a full brother to Cacey Toner’s Kerrobert Regional Champion Steer last year. We think Jim Bob has just as much potential as his brother. This guy just continues to impress us each day. He is good hipped, soft middled and has a rocket front end. He can get out and travel really well. We think he will feed well like his brother before him- Cache tipped the scale at 1500 lbs by mid June. If you are looking for a great 4H steer with some extra added look- Jim Bob is your guy.
ARCH SPUDNUT 645N SIRE/ GRIZZ 56K (CCLT ALLIANCE) DAM/ 494K (COMFORT ZONE) DOB/ FEB.19
CONSIGNED BY ARCH HOLDINGS
Another Grizz calf here. This guy is super docile and would make a great project for all ages. He is big bellied, good hipped and has a really nice front end, to make a striking package. Simmy/Maine is our favorite cross for a reason- good growth with some extra style and flair. Spudnut has a great color and a great hair coat to top it all off. He will make a fun Junior project.

537 is massive in every way! Super, bold sprung, awesome turn to his rib cage with added natural muscle. 537 is another How Great Thou Art and this sire group stacked. 537 has that fat steer appearance and we can’t wait to see what this guy does!

CONSIGNED BY WRIGHT CATTLE COMPANY
558 is a steer that has a big-time future! 558 sports that cool Blue Roan coat but still has the muscle shape, bone and presence that we look for. 558 is one that we feel has the potential to be ultra competitive in all stages of development.

WRIGHT STEER 524N

DAM/ WRIGHTS 88X (MONOPOLY)
DOB/ MAR.2
CONSIGNED BY WRIGHT LIVESTOCK
Genetics to be a contender next summer. Quiet, hairy, and square-made. Perfect for first-year members or seasoned showmen. Dam has raised multiple champions.
WRIGHT STEER 533N
SIRE/ PB CHAROLAIS
DAM/ WRIGHTS 18J (FU MAN CHU)
DOB/ MAR.20
CONSIGNED BY WRIGHT LIVESTOCK
Big, powerful, and stylish. Tan steer with a ton of top and a big hip. He’ll turn heads. Not as hairy, but when you’re this good, you don’t need it.
ELLDEM HOW GREAT 510N SIRE/ HOW GREAT THOU ART DAM/ LOLITTA (MONO MONEY) DOB/ JAN.10 CONSIGNED BY ELLDEM CATTLE INVESTMENTS
Lolitta knocked it out of the park again! This is the natural calf and only direct offspring available this year off of our tried and true donor cow. A full sib was purchased by Keylen Eaton at last years sale and was campaigned successfully making many miles around the country. When we compare him to the maternal sibs in the past, this one boosts a little extra rib shape and a touch softer middled. Yet keeping the same look and wicked hair as we’ve come to expect. He was part of our summer show string being Reserve Steer at Weldon as well as 3rd overall at PAEX.
ELLDEM MWA 501N
SIRE/ MAY WE ALL
DAM/ ELLDEM 321L (HIA/LOLITTA)
DOB/ JAN.1
CONSIGNED BY ELLDEM CATTLE INVESTMENTS
There is greatness bred into this one. A May We All off a first calf heifer whom just happens to be a full sib to the 2021 Calgary Champion Steer. If she continues to produce ones like this she will undoubtedly fast track herself to the donor pen. This is one we’ve liked all summer and is easy to find with his “look at me” attitude. Truly, a versatile type steer that will be highly competitive at the spring jackpots yet be manageable to campaign late into the summer.
ELLDEM/TINY PANDA 29N
SIRE/ I AM HERE
DAM/ MAINE/ANGUS/HEREFORD
DOB/ MAR.27
CONSIGNED BY ELLDEM CATTLE INVESTMENTS
When I first laid eyes on this calf while down in Alameda on a calf tour, I knew I had to get ahold of him for the sale. Since then has exceeded my expectations. An end of March calf that has about as much body and mass as any other in the offering. We think this guy could be big time and a serious contender next summer.
ELLDEM/TINY 1 OAK 34N
SIRE/ 1 OAK DAM/ DUBSTEP DOB/ MAR.29 CONSIGNED BY ELLDEM CATTLE INVESTMENTS
For any younger or first time showman that wants to have a competitive edge have a look here. This one has been an absolute treat to work on and is calm as a cucumber. Aside from his great disposition we feel he has a little added look, is nicely structured to be serious at some jackpot shows, while also displaying some ruggedness and power to be a contender at a finished beef 4H show.
ELLDEM/TINY HERE I AM 24N
SIRE/ HERE I AM
DAM/ ANGUS
DOB/ MAR.25
CONSIGNED BY ELLDEM CATTLE INVESTMENTS
We really like what his guy has to offer. Despite his young age he’s got tons of mass, squareness up high, and stands square and rugged on the ground. Super necked and excellent skeleton. Being as young as he is, it’s without a doubt he’ll be one to remain fresh and ready to be campaigned later in the season.
ELLDEM HGTA 527N
SIRE/ HOW GREAT THOU ART DAM/ SUGAR
DOB/ FEB.7 CONSIGNED BY ELLDEM CATTLE INVESTMENTS
Since weaning this one has really poured it on and shows huge potential to continue on that trend. He offers lots of rib, a nice square hip and overall width, and stands on an ideal leg structure. We are confident he’s got the right parts to grow up and be competitive. This would be a full ET brother to the 2025 Weyburn 4H Regional Champion Steer for the Fladeland family.
ELLDEM DMN 507N
SIRE/ DOUBT ME NOW
DAM/ 19G (SIMPLIFY)
DOB/ JAN.8
CONSIGNED BY ELLDEM CATTLE INVESTMENTS
Compared to his pen mates this guy hits the hardest on the profile. He’s attractive fronted and proud with tons of style. Body wise, he’s extra loose hided and will make a nice manageable feeding type steer. Lots of hair and a calm demeanour makes an excellent choice for a young or first time showman that wants a little extra hair to play with.
ELLDEM KING COBRA 537N
SIRE/ KING COBRA
DAM/ 820E (ANGUS)
DOB/ MAR.2
CONSIGNED BY ELLDEM CATTLE INVESTMENTS
High angus influence makes for a sure shot feeding steer with a little extra size and softness. An early March calf that already stands on his own in terms of maturity and do-ability. A maternal sib was sold to Addison Barnett and with a quick social media search one can see just how well that guy turned out for her. We think this one has a lot of similarities and could very well walk the same path with good management.
