Force of Nature is a son of the multiple time Champion Berkly Ann and the highly sought after Redemption bull. He is a flushmate to the tremendous Husk, Bourbon, Innovation and Uprising herdsires. Force of Nature is one of the coolest built, smooth yet bold bodied bulls in the industry today. He is seamless in his transition in each third with an exceptional neck attachment and striking front third that the show ring desires. Force of Nature was campaigned in the US and caused quite a stir when he appeared on the hill in Denver in 2022. Since then he has been used heavily in the US by many prominent breeders and has already sired Champion females at major US shows including Naile, Cattlemen’s Congress and Fort Worth! Force of Nature has been used very sparsely in Canada this is truly a unique and special opportunity to create something magical!!!

But he isn’t just all numbers – his style, performance, presence and appeal is being forwarded to his progeny. His first daughters are now milking and have tremendous udders and teat size. Semen will remain limited and will not be available until the fall of 2025 in Canada. PA Free.

Commissioner is everything you could ask for in a proven herdsire. He has consistently produced moderate framed, show winning, stylish, sale topping progeny for the renowned Kay-R program.

JIL Thunder Roll 69Z is a bull that we purchased when we first got into the Charolais breed. The influence he has had on our program is tremendous. Thunder himself was stout, sound, deep made and easy fleshing. Thunder sired bulls have always been in our bull sale pen and the Thunder females flat out produce. Both heifers and bulls sired by Thunder are successful in the show ring. Thunder was Reserve Champion bull at Farmfair himself. He sired Reserve National Champions on either side of the border in the same year. Thunder also sired ONL Daddy Cool 4C, who was Champion Bull at Farmfair in 2017. Erin Briggs of EMB Charolais purchased one of the first Thunder daughters we sold, ONL Obsession, who was Reserve female at a National Show and she continues to be a profitable producer for Erin. These are just a few of the highlights! The Thunder daughters have proven themselves as excellent producers time and time again. It was a Thunder daughter that raised the $72,000 WGD Ruger 8J. A Thunder daughter raised the high seller in “The Hunt,” our first steer and heifer sale held this past fall. We have walked a Thunder son. Aside from being great quality cattle that really work, the Thunder’s have always been really easy to handle. We think very highly of this bull and are grateful for his continued role in our Charolais program. Semen is stored at Bow Valley.It is Canadian, US and Australian exportable.

He then ended 2021 as being named the BOSS Show Bull of the Year!!! Holy Water is a soft made, attractive herdbull who is very fluid in his movement. Several calves were out on the show road this fall and exemplify the same style, length and appeal as their sire. Don’t miss out on utilizing this National Champion in your program in 2025!
