PHG Spring 2018 Sale Catalog

2018 ANNUAL BULL SALE

1

Hello and Welcome!

We would like to welcome everyone to our annual production sale. 2017 was certainly a year for the record books. Between record high snow fall, followed by record low rainfall, 2017 was a year to test the resiliency of anyone in the beef business. We were fortunate to finally receive some much needed moisture in August, just in time for our field day. While the drought did make pasture management difficult, thanks to hard grass and some hard working mama cows, the calves really packed on the pounds! It is a true testament to the maternal power of a Gelbvieh female that our average weaning weight increased, and 96% of the females rebred for a 50 day calving window.

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

It seems like we say it every year, but the set of bulls we have to offer this year is the strongest, most consistent group of bulls we’ve ever had on the ranch. We are incredibly proud of these bulls, the way they’ve developed, and the future in front of them. Our goal is to provide you with genetics that not only make you money, but bulls you’ll be proud to have walking your pasture.

Something new for 2018 is the introduction of our Red Angus program. We’ve always preached the benefits of an F1 cross, and the free pounds available through heterosis. With more of our customers running Gelbvieh and Red Angus Klint and Maralee Sickler Family bulls, we felt it was time to add another component to our program. Our goal is 2171 102nd Ave SW to offer Red Angus genetics that can compliment and compete with our Gelbvieh Gladstone, ND 58630 genetics, while putting pounds on the ground and money in your pocket. The Klint Sickler – 701-483-5250 (home) Red Angus cattle are based off of some of the best animals available in Canada 701-260-1853 (cell) – offering an outcross to many of the bloodlines available in the United States, while emphasizing longevity, maternal and performance traits. Since they are all embryo calves, we have done the 50K genomic test on all Red Angus bulls to help you identify the animal that will work best in your operation. We should receive this information later in January. We think you’ll be very impressed by these bulls!

We continue to use the mineral and feed programs developed for us by the nutritionists at Biozyme. The bulls are grown on a forage based ration that allows them 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 continue to be impressed by their performance, and their ability hold together when they hit the pasture.

The sale will again be held at the sale facility at Klint & Maralee’s. All cattle will be sold by video, with the bulls available for viewing within feet of the sale facility. live animals will be entering the building. We will have the videos available for viewing on our website www.prairiehillsgelbvieh.com approximately 2 weeks before the sale. Any supplemental sale information will also be posted on our website. The animals will be available for viewing beginning at 12PM on Friday, February 9th, and 9AM Saturday, February 10th.

This year the sale will again be broadcast on the internet through LiveAuctions.tv. 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 or Galen in advance 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 Klint or Galen.

THANK YOU!

Galen and Marcia Sickler Family Klint & Maralee Sickler Family

Empire is another bull that we halter broke with the intention of taking him to Denver. He’s got the looks and the performance to fit in with the rest of the bulls – 85 pound BW and a 904 WW – but there’s only so much room on the trailer. His Xavier sired dam achieved Dam of Merit status in her first year of eligibility, weaning 3 calves for an average of a 105 ratio. Her first heifer calf was the high selling female in this sale in 2016, a full brother to Lot 3 sold last year into Montana, and this guy will probably be on many people’s lists. You can’t beat consistency! Homo Black and Polled!

Esteem E72 is the definition of a ‘beef bull’. Check out the spread in this guys numbers – 85 pounds at birth, to 910 pounds at weaning! He has the look to be a show bull, the performance to be a curve bender, and is backed by one of the strongest cows in the herd.

His dam has landed three herd bulls in her lifetime, and Esteem looks to be the 4th. Not many cows can carry a 110 weaning ratio over 7 calves! She’s been honored as a Dam of Merit every year from 2013 to 2017. Dominance doesn’t need any introduction at this point. These are the kind of calves he puts on the ground, and they’re the type that make you money. Take a look at his EPD profile - he scores in the top 30% or higher in both growth and carcass traits. A solid beef bull that will make an impact for any seedstock or commercial producer.

Everclear is a calf I’ve had my eye on all summer. Finding a red bull that is this soft, with this much rib, is no easy task. To find one with a pedigree that is an outcross is even more difficult! His half brother was a high seller to Gustin’s Diamond D last year, and his dam will find her way into the donor pen if she keeps dropping calves like these. Dominance strikes again on the top side, combined with the maternal expert Yikes on the bottom side. Phenotypically there are very few holes in this guy. Looking at his head and shoulder, I wouldn’t be afraid to use him on heifers. Consider this – His dam is a half sister to our Canadian Futurity winner, and he is a half brother to the Denver Futurity champion. That’s a recipe for greatness. Top 30% or better for CED, WW, YW, CEM, YG, and top 10% for marbling! SELLING FULL POSSESSION AND 50% SEMEN INTEREST.

Lot 5 is another Dominance sired calf, out of a Yikes daughter, making him a 3/4 sibling to Lot 4. An 84 pound BW out of the gate, followed up with an 826 weaning weight. Mama holds a 92 birth ratio and a 103 weaning ratio on her first 2 calves. Not too shabby!

Ebony is best described as a performance bull. 850 pounds off of his dam, as an April calf!

Small headed, smooth shouldered – he’s the perfect combination of eye appeal, EPD strength, and maternal power!

These are the first sons of Paycheck, a bull we retained to replace his sire - Payday. If they all show the depth and softness that lot 7 has, Paycheck will have a full pasture this spring! Endeavour is another bull we looked at really hard as a Denver bull. He checks lots of the boxes, and he’s super chilled out – always the first to come check you out and look for a scratch. Check out the rib and the hip on this guy! Mama is no slouch either, sporting a 111 weaning ratio on her first two calves – including this guy at 879 pounds!. She’s a Dam of Merit in the making!

We purchased this cow from Beastrom’s in 2013 and quickly found that she crosses great with Payday genetics. We’ve tried her now to Payday, Roughneck, and Paycheck, and every calf has made the lead pen. That’s about as predictable as you could ask for!

Nearly a completely Canadian pedigree, this guy is out of one of Klint’s favorite cows in the herd – VG 7X. If you want to describe ‘the perfect cow’, you could use her as the model. Imported from Canada in 2011, she was named Dam of Merit in 2015, has had a son nominated for the bull futurity, and left some awesome replacement females. Paycheck’s depth and softness was a perfect match for her structure and maternal strength. We really like the looks of this one.

Do not pass this guy up because of his age! This is probably one of the deepest and thickest This homo black son of Paycheck has the pattern and performance to be a great addition to bulls in the entire offering. He may be the youngest bull in the group, but he doesn’t give up someones herd. Paycheck has probably the most consistent group of calves in the sale. Imagine an inch to the competition. This is one of the first Paycheck sons to sell and Easy Money takes the load of calves this guy could sire! after dad with his depth and thickness, but in a moderate frame. To top it off, Easy Money has one of the fanciest mothers on the ranch with a picture perfect udder. 85 pounds at birth, to 875 pounds at weaning, for a 4.51 WDA! Oh yeah, Mom was a Dam of Merit in 2013, 14, 15, and 16!

Eclipse was a member of our Reserve Champion Pen of 3 in Denver. Out of a first calving Xavier daughter who did an awesome job – starting with an 85 pound birth and slamming down the scale at weaning at 926 pounds! The Jackson calves are really proving themselves as the combination of calving ease and performance. He managed to scan an impressive actual 3.49% IMF in Denver. Combine that with the eye appeal and natural depth this guy shows, and you’ve got a deluxe herd bull candidate!

Enchilada is one of the few Flex calves we have. The Flex daughters are proving to be great mothers. The proof is a 779# weaning weight out of a first calf heifer. The Why Me daughters always stand out as some of our best producers. With an 82 pound BW and a 101 weaning ratio, his dam is well on her way.

The only Xavier calf in this years offering. We sold Xavier this summer after 6 calf crops, so this is also the last natural sired Xavier calf. His daughters are stand outs and his calves are consistently at the top end of the ultrasound reports. Coming from a Payday daughter, Lot 35 has the depth and thickness, as well as the carcass EPDs from his sire.

A half brother to last years high selling bull to Fladeland Livestock. This guy was a contender to be a member of our Denver string, but there’s only so much room on the trailer. He has the same length and depth as his brother, with the same spread from BW to WW. His mom is sporting a nurse ratio of 109 on 4 calves, so he’s not a fluke!

When we started to seek out Red Angus genetics, we made the decision to try and start with the best – Lot 38 and 39 are the result. We saw his dam at Agribition and immediately fell in love with her. In our eyes she’s as close to phenotypically flawless as we’ve seen in a Red Angus female. Deep bodied, level through her udder floor, yet feminine in her profile – she was hard to miss. When the opportunity arose to try her to the hot new Razor sire, we jumped! The Razor calves are just flat good. They are easy fleshing, deep ribbed, wide topped, structurally sound, and have a hair coat thick enough to stand up to a ND winter! A great pair of bulls to start the Red Angus offering!

Soo Line Rhonda is known as one of the most prolific cows in the Red Angus breed. She averaged over $12,000 on her first three bull calves. The combination of her with the powerful Soo Line Power Eye 161X seemed like a ‘no miss’, and boy were we right! Averaging 4.7 pounds per day since weaning, these boys are long, and they are soggy. These are real beef bulls right here.

Detour is known throughout the Red Angus breed as the calving ease go-to. This calf sired by Detour has the appearance of being able to work on heifers or cows, without sacrificing performance. His dam is a 2003 model cow that is an absolute tank. When you look at lot 42, it’s easy to see where he gets his depth from!

We purchased the dam of Lot 43 from Lost River Livestock in MN as a bred female. She gave us an awesome heifer for her first calf, and then followed it up with this great bull calf sired by Ramblin Man. Starting at 60 pounds at birth, and then weaning off at 760 pounds, his dam has earned her 102 nurse ratio on her first 2 calves. More moderate in stature, he’s hard to pick a hole in.

When you’re looking for maternal power and consistency, lots 44 and 45 should make your list. Their dam 67R has had embryos exported across the globe.

Legacy has made quite the name of himself, with 1/3 semen interest selling for $106,000 in the 2014 Cowgirls sale. These two bulls both show the same neck extension and depth of rib, as well as the small skull shape to make them usable on a variety of cow types.
