Welcome to the 19 thAnnual Fall Cream of the Crop Sale! Good cattle always have and always will bring a good premium over average cattle! This is one of the highest cattle markets in history, and the experts are saying it’s going to surpass to the all time highest and is predicted to stay good for several years to come. So now it is more important than ever to produce the best you possibly can! The fastest way to do that is to buy the best herd sires and females you can afford to help you achieve your dreams in record time. We believe this set of cattle can help you do just that! This is the largest and most diverse set of cattle we have ever offered in the 19 years of bringing you our “Fall” Cream of the Crop Sale. The quality in this wide, deep bodied and attractive group of cattle is overwhelming. We sure hope you can join us at Black Hereford Ranch Saturday, October 28, 2023. We genuinely believe you too will ﬁnd them as impressive as we do! I’ve said this before and want to remind you all again that we stand behind our cattle as good as or better than anyone else in this highly competitive business we are in. These cattle are truly the type and kind that you can take home with conﬁdence that they will add value to your next calf crop.

I want to thank my wife, Gay. She has truly had my back in this operation for 36 years. She’s the one who makes the lists and checks ’em twice. As she says, she shoulda bought stock in Post-it® Notes when she married me. One cold, icy winter day in early 1991, we were gathering up show steers in Iowa and discussing needing a name for our first Texas steer sale to be held in March 1991. Gay said, “Well, I guess we will bring people the Cream of the Crop, and 32 years later we are still striving to bring you the “Cream of the Crop.” As I’ve told you all before, I have the best mother- and father-in-law I coulda asked for. They were there in 1991 helping at the very first Cream of the Crop Steer Sale in Abilene, Texas, and they are still here today helping. Thank you, Mema and Pepa! It takes a lot to pull these sales off, and we are grateful for every one of our crew—Dustin Dunford, Jacob Cervantes, Dick Moler, Jimmy Hoffman, Brad Hook and many more. Heck, we are even blessed that Aunt Gena makes her way from East Texas to help sale week. Last but definitely not least, we owe a big thank you to Tiffani Pruitt and to Jill Otterstad (Southwest TypeStyles) for all their time and patience with us (the catalog is a major undertaking)! We are especially grateful for all of our returning customers and all the first time buyers! I love good cattle, and I love hearing about the success each of you have had and continue to have with Cream of the Crop offspring! I wish you all much success,

FALL CREAM OF THE CROP BULL & BRED FEMALE SALE | 2 | SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 2023…CRAWFORD, OKLAHOMA

FEMALE BREEDING GUARANTEE

Terms of sale are cash, check or wire transfer, payable to Black Hereford Ranch at the conclusion of the auction. Animals are not released to leave until paid for in full.

Safe in calf females have been examined by our veterinarians. All females declared safe in calf will have a projected calving date or date range printed on the sale day supplement. All projected due dates are best estimates only and not guaranteed. Please remember that it is normal to give birth throughout the two weeks either side of their projected due date. If a pregnant female proves to be open by a licensed veterinarian within 30 days of this sale and is returned to the seller within 45 days at the buyer’s expense, the buyer may choose between a full credit refund or may choose to keep the female with an $800 refund adjustment.

BULL BREEDING GUARANTEE All bulls in this offering have been fertility and trichomoniasis tested by our veterinarian, Scott Sturgeon, D.V.M., and are guaranteed to be breeders, with the exception of a) injury or disease occurring after the time of sale; or b) gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the purchaser. Any bull that settles cows by natural service is considered a breeder.

RETAINED INTEREST IN BULLS

PROTECTING YOUR INVESTMENT We insure the cattle we purchase and highly recommend that you do the same. After the gavel slams, they are your responsibility. We will take great care of your cattle until they are loaded and leave BHR. We highly recommend these agents for livestock mortality insurance: James F. Bessler, LLC — Jim Bessler (815) 762-2641 InsureYourCattle.com — Jimmy James (580) 481-0955; Jace James (580) 481-0927

Ownership: Unless otherwise stated, we are selling full possession, full salvage value and 2/3 revenue sharing semen interest in bulls. This means the bull is totally in your control as to how you want to handle him, as well as 100% of the salvage value of the bull. We are retaining 1/3 revenue-sharing semen interest. This simply gives us the right to 1/3 of the semen sales revenue from the bull, if at some time in the future semen sales become a possibility. If you sell the bull to anyone else, Black Hereford Ranch retains our semen interest and revenue sales. If a buyer is not interested in marketing the semen from a bull, then Black Hereford Ranch reserves the right to collect a semen bank on the bull at our cost and the buyer’s convenience within a timely manner. That semen would be 100% owned by Black Hereford Ranch for our use or marketing.

RETAINED INTEREST IN FEMALES

Realistically speaking, the reason Black Hereford Ranch retains an interest in every bull is that we want to keep it simple, and we have great bulls throughout the offering. The bulls that do develop a market for larger amounts of semen can be very ﬁnancially rewarding; therefore, as a breeder of some of the best seed stock in the industry, we want to share with you in these bulls. Even bulls that aren’t originally promoted can become popular at a later time, especially after calf crops prove successful. We want to be a great partner with you.

These 18-month-old bulls can be used with great success, but we recommend to turn out one cow per bull’s month of age for best results. These young bulls are still growing and losing their teeth and may need a little extra care at the end of their ﬁrst breeding season.

Semen Rights: Buyers receive semen rights proportionally to the interest that is purchased. A 1/3 semen interest, and 1/3 of all semen sales, is retained on all bulls unless otherwise stated in the catalog or supplement sheet or announced from the block the day of the sale. Therefore, if you purchase 2/3 revenue sharing semen interest, you are entitled to 2/3 of the collection semen cost provided that you indicate that you want semen prior to collection. Future semen collections must be made known to all owners prior to collecting. The collections and cost will be divided according to each owner’s interest, unless otherwise agreed upon mutually by all owners prior to collection of said semen.

Black Hereford Ranch RETAINS THE RIGHT TO PARTNER ON TWO SUCCESSFUL FLUSHES ON ALL COC FEMALES. A successful flush is defined as producing at least four eggs per partner. If you sell the female to anyone else, Black Hereford Ranch still retains our right to partner on two successful flushes. If a buyer is not interested in flushing the female, then Black Hereford Ranch reserves the right to two successful flushes on the female at our cost and the buyer’s convenience within a timely manner.

FUTURE HEALTH CARE RECOMMENDATIONS The stress of hauling and relocating your COC purchases can weaken their immune system, so we recommend keeping a good eye on them daily for the two weeks after you get them home. See page 39 for our complete herd health protocol.

BLACK HEREFORD RANCH RESERVES THE RIGHT TO COLLECT DNA FOR CLONING PURPOSES ON ALL CATTLE WE SELL.

TERMS OF SALE

45 years in the making!

Since 1978 When Kris was in the ﬁrst grade, his grandfather Frank “Shorty” Gilliland gave him a purebred Polled Hereford heifer. Kris kept the females as replacements, and by the time he graduated, he had a small group of cows that were the original foundation of what is now Black Hereford Ranch. Shorty’s family homesteaded the acreage that was previously the Gilliland Hereford Ranch for G.L. and Shorty Gilliland. One of the original homes still remains in use today as a ranch house. Neighbors tell stories of helping Shorty load his tack and cattle onto train cars, riding with the cattle, traveling to shows as far off as the World Beef Expo in Kentucky. They put on a number of Polled Hereford production sales over the years. Unfortunately due to health reasons, Shorty had to disperse most of his cow herd. The year Kris graduated, Shorty had a stroke that left him handicapped. Kris put a halt to college plans and moved to Crawford to work for Shorty until his passing a few years later. Kris began outcrossing Herefords and keeping heifers to build his cow herd. Two years later, he had a Houston Champion Hereford followed by a Tulsa Reserve Grand Champion Steer with a Hereford. He continued to add color to his crop, and in 1993 he had a black baldy Power Plant son that was Reserve Grand at Houston, raised by our late friend Frank Johnson. In 1994, Frank bought a Power Plant x Chi cow and called Kris to ask what to breed her to…a year later, Habanero was born. They were our ﬁrst to break the $20,000 barrier, and 28 years later Habanero is still making a direct impact.

LOTS 1–125

This is the largest and most diverse group of wide bodied, stout built, sound movin’ herd sire candidates that we’ve brought you in 19 years of Fall Cream of the Crop Sales. It will be well worth the trip to Crawford. If you’re looking for a good, herd improving herd sire, you’ll find a bunch of them you’ll like in our 19th Annual Fall Sale. They are so diverse in about every breed or color. Most have what it takes to sire champion-caliber show steers, some are maternal at its best—the kind to build a good cow herd around, and a lot of them will do both as successfully as you’ll find anywhere. If you’re breeding heifers, there are four really good-looking low birth weight first-time heifer bulls. We’ve culled them hard for structure and soundness, and most have a real good temperament. They have topof-the-line dams and granddams backing them for generations, and that’s a must in our opinion. It helps them be more consistent breeders of high quality offspring and their daughters making you a good calfraising cow. They have not been fed hard, just grown out to where they are ready to go to work as soon as you get ’em home. They’ve been tested for everything, vaccinated and we’ll stand behind them as good as or better than anyone else in the business.

We have been fortunate to sell some pretty prestigious Hereford show steer sires over the years. Made Right, Carpe Diem and Easy Jett are probably the most famous, but there are more, like Highway 33, Battleship, Burnin’ Daylight, Shotgun and many others that have had their start at BHR and wear the COC preﬁx. We think our 2023 lead off Hereford bull, “Home Run,” is the type and kind and has the power in the blood to knock it out of the park! Home Run is one of the most perfect built future Hereford show steer sires to go through this program in several years. His dam, granddam and great-granddam have all been valuable donors for BHR. His COC Tiger-sired great-granddam has produced over $400,000 for Clark, Shackelford and BHR. His COC Shotgun-sired granddam has a full sister at Clark’s that has produced over $100K. His COC Outer Limits-sired dam has over $70K in sales to her credit at BHR. His COC Carpe Diemsired sire, COC BH H12, bred by Bradley Hale, has sired his fair share of champions and needs no introduction. His maternal brothers sell as Lots 2 and 3. Terms: Selling 1/2 possession, 1/2 semen interest and 1/2 semen sales with alternating years of possession. Buyer has the option to double down to own full possession and 2/3 semen interest.

These two bulls are peas in a pod, both marked to classify every time. Both are deep middled and have an extra shot of hip and top with herd bull sized bone. If you need to increase the power and saleability of your Hereford show steers, I don’t know of any better way to do it than with these two full brothers to Easy Jett! Check out their amazing full sister selling as Lot 143. Their COC donor dam, 1685, has been one of our all-time best.

This is your chance to own a full brother to COC Battleship Arizona. Sired by the amazing COC Battleship, who is deceased and whose very limited semen supply is basically gone. He left us way too early with very little semen and proved to be a valuable sire of champion Hereford show steers. COC Battleship Arizona is also proving to be a valuable breeding piece. His undefeated son, bred and sold by partner Kevin Newman and shown by Jerzee Harlan, was Champion Hereford in both rings at Plainview and Fifth Overall plus Champion Hereford in both rings at the Golden Spread Classic in Levelland and Reserve Grand Overall. Battleship Arizona and Lot 6’s beautiful, very potent dam was Larry Kieschnick’s Lot 354 pick from the COC bred Hereford heifers in our 2013 sale and is now his Donor 175.

When I ﬁrst laid eyes on Battleship Arizona at Kieschnick’s, I knew Larry had raised a good one. This is one of his ﬁrst sons born and to sell as a coming two-year-old herd sire.

Looks like a Champion Hereford show steer maker and is a paternal brother to Newman’s incredible undefeated Battleship Arizona son that is going to be hard to get around at the majors next spring.

As stated on Lot 2, we ﬂushed IVF on four of our all-time best older Hereford donors to an $1,800 straw of Who Maker, the great looking, great built registered Hereford bull that shelled out the good ones but unfortunately died early in his career with little semen stored—his semen got expensive for a reason. These sons will all make great daughters and easy-to-sell sons. With 100 lbs. from picture time to sale time, this bull could be the pick of ’em all. That’s what his $30,000 high selling maternal brother COC Astro did, he exploded from picture time to sale time. He wasn’t even pictured that year, but did he ever turn it on and look good. The Floyds took him home that year. A maternal brother to the ﬁxin’to-be household name COC Raised Right, Lot 10 is snake necked with plenty of belly and has the good muscle shape and structure.

We’re going from an amazing set of Hereford bulls to the purebred Charolais division, and we’re starting this awesome group with what may be the best sire group from any sire that we’ve had in a COC sale. COC 19-361 “Major Impact” was our high-selling bull in our 2021 summer sale to Rick Beard. I thought he was the best purebred Charolais bull we had ever sold and still do. You should see him now as a four-year-old. I encourage you to take the time while you’re here to lay your eyes on him. He’s moderate, massive, sound with great eye appeal and out of one of the best Fire Water x HooDoo cows you’ll see anywhere. We’ve had the privilege to sell some very inﬂuential Charolais bulls over the years, and I just named this one “Major Impact.” I’m certain he’ll live up to his name. Lots 20–34 are the from ﬁrst calf crop from COC 19-361 Major Impact. Some are better than others, but from top to bottom I sure think they’re all extra good built with extra body capacity, big hips and tops, super eye appeal and have amazing structure and mobility. Of a total of 17 spring 2022 bull calves born, only two went to the sale barn. They’re all out of good purebred Charolais cows. I can't wait to get a bunch of “Major Impact” calves out of clubby cows. He has “champion caliber slick shear sire” written all over him, and these leading sons do too!

It’s hard to ﬁnd ’em that are built like him and still have the good ﬂexibility he possesses. His Extra Special x Monopoly donor dam is their best cow.

With another 100 lbs. between picture day and sale day, they very well could be a lot of folks’ ﬁrst picks.

This baldy purebred Simmental didn’t picture as good as he could have, but if you’re looking for a tremendous purebred that has great value just from his pedigree alone, then you better see and study this amazing individual. He’s truly built as good as they get. His one-of-a-kind dam is a full sister to the hottest Simmental sire out there, W/C Bankroll. He has the hip, top, high neck set and belly to stick out from the crowd. After you see him, I hope you’ll agree that he has all the credentials to sire champion caliber show steers and build you a cow herd with lots of value. I hope when you come see this bull that you don’t accuse me of switching tags! He’s way better than his picture. And I almost forgot—he had a 65 pound birth weight. Wow!

This powerful ET 3/4 Simmental has awesome feet and legs and is easy keeping, really deep bellied and sided, and good looking with plenty of muscle. He has that “I’ll make you a mouthwatering set of daughters” look. His beautiful Loaded Up COC Donor 71 dam was Lot 1 in our 2019 Cream of the Crop Sale and the $50,000-valued high seller to Sid and Renae Robinson.

She was the $24,000 high seller to Tony Myers this past summer, and she is amazing. Their dam was a standout. COC Donor 8-291 was a $14,000 high selling Business Done Right x 1/2 Brahman–1/2 Charolais to David Vallejo, and Lot 125’s granddam was a COC 1/2 Charolais–1/2 Brahman to Tommy Byrd that is a powerhouse we’re ﬂushing now. Lot 125 is plenty stout, last forever sound movin’ and has really good character.

the Bred Heifers We are proud to offer you this top set of spring bred heifers. Our motto is “We don’t keep the best and sell the rest.” We culled hard and believe there is a special place for each of these females as a breeding piece to improve a wide variety of programs. All breeds and colors are represented, and most all link back to genetics that have been proven time and time again. We have selected hard for feet, legs, udder development and quality for generations. They will all be wide bodied, good hipped, easy keepin and sound. From top to bottom, these females will not disappoint. Most all of the heifers will be videoed prior to the sale and will be available for online viewing as well as at the ranch. We personally welcome you to stop by the ranch at your convenience for their inspection! Unless stated otherwise, the bred heifers were pasture exposed to purebred black Corriente bulls from June 24 to September 27, 2023. Pregnancy status will be available on the sale supplement sheet. These young females have their entire reproductive life ahead of them, and this set of easy calving bulls will help insure their longevity. Any supplemental information will be provided the week of the sale. Please remember that it is normal for females to calve two weeks on either side of their projected due dates.

Without that good Taz cow, would there have been a Heat Wave? Without a Heat Wave, would there have been a Monopoly, or the masses of other name brand Heat Wave sons? There’s a lot of credit due to the cow families that get the job done and have made this industry what it is!

For 10 consecutive years we made the trip to Cody, Wyoming, where George Brown allowed us the opportunity to have ﬁrst pick of nearly 20,000 weaned heifer calves on the HooDoo Ranch. We got to hand pick out of 2,000 heifer calves a year, but there was never one quite like HooDoo Phylli. She was the stoutest of the 1,500 we bought and brought back to Crawford. She is the dam of Yellow Jacket, Polar Ice, J10 and many other outstanding progeny.

The HooDoos ultimately inﬂuenced the turning point in the show steer industry from a black-hided world to the big surge of yellows, smokes and whites. Among others, Cream of the Crop HooDoo females have produced: 2004 Houston Grand Steer, 2006 San Antonio Grand Steer, 2007 San Antonio Grand Steer, 2009 Houston Grand Steer, 2011 Houston Reserve Grand Steer, 2015 Houston Grand Steer, 2016 Houston Reserve Grand Steer and 2016 San Antonio Reserve Grand Steer plus countless breed champions at the toughest shows in the country.

No photoshopping on this some kind of special cow! She’s the kind you dream about. How about that head and neck? She’s the kind that don’t come along very often, nor do you get the opportunity to buy when they do come around. She will for sure make you stop dead in your tracks and take a long look. When you ﬁnd out that her dam was one of our all-time favorite high sellers, her granddam is none other than the $200,000 Club member COC Donor 524, and she was AI’d to In God We Trust, you will get goosebumps!

The $25,000 half interest COC 524 Gold bull, out of Donor 524, has done a tremendous job for Rick Beard, Korky Wise and ourselves, siring outstanding bull progeny and females that outperform on sale day and in the pasture.

Note that we are retaining the right to partner on two successful ﬂushes on all these females and would like to take advantage of that in the next couple of years. We also retain the right to collect DNA on all cattle sold for cloning purposes.

248 lot

I’m pretty illiterate when it comes to these Americans. I guess I’ve gotten lucky sometimes, and sometimes luck is better than smarts. I bought a powerhouse of a Simbrah cow in one of Doc Warner’s sales, and this COC Warner Donor 52 has really made me look like I might have a clue about Americans. Somebody can make a superstar out of this thing, I’m 100% sure of that. She is ground pounding major stout with more American character than this pic shows. I really hate to see her leave this place.
