Barriere, BC 250-672-9309 250-318-8539 Cell ian@mitchellcattle.com Welcome to our 9th annual sale. We would like to thank you for attending our sale or taking the time to look through the catalogue. We hope that you enjoy viewing a set of bulls that we are very proud of. We have been raising cattle here for more than eighty years with the fourth generation becoming much more involved. It is very nice to have my brothers Kenner and Tam taking a peek at the cows during the night at calving time and our kids Leanna and Thompson helping with chores. Isn’t it a rewarding time to be involved with the cattle business! Even though the prices “softened” slightly at the end of the fall run they are still pretty darn good. After some tough years it is certainly great to feel some optimism about the life we all enjoy. Our cattle have started to settle in to our new range, despite serious wolf problems. The bulls have done very well on feed gaining nearly four pounds per day. I believe we have a very solid set of bulls with a variety suitable for your needs. There are large sire groups for your comparison. These bulls have developed in conditions that are similar to yours, they know how to get out and travel. Feet and legs are extremely important to us as they have to be able to move long distances. We focus on the females being trouble free; with good disposition and udders, easy calving and sound. As usual we have put a great deal of emphasis on carcass traits as we still have a viable meat program and these traits are important to us as I am sure they are to you. Our Thanks to BC Livestock; Kevin, Wilf and his crew always do a fantastic job preparing the yards and looking after all of our needs. If you cannot make it to the sale or would like a little more time and information, the bulls will all be available for viewing at home until March 31st, the coffee is always on. If you wish to have someone do the purchasing for you, the sales staff at BC Livestock are familiar with the bulls and they would be more than happy to assist you with your sight unseen purchase. Our sale partners; Ron and Lois, are a pleasure to work with and share our commitment to our customers. On behalf of the Crosby’s it is my pleasure to extend our greetings and invitation to join us for lunch and our sale on April the 2nd. See you all at the Lake, Ian and Anja Mitchell Cattle Co. has invested in the health of their herd of cattle for many years through a comprehensive herd health strategy. Currently all breeding females and bulls receive an annual vaccination prior to the breeding season to protect against all the important reproductive viruses and bacteria including IBR, Type I and II BVD and Leptosprirosis. All calves are vaccinated at branding to provide protection against the important viruses and bacteria causing respiratory and clostridial diseases. Currently calves receive a modified live vaccine against IBR, Type I and II BVD, BRSV, and PI3, as well as a modified live bacterin against shipping fever and a killed bacterin against Histophilus somnus, Blackleg and other clostridial diseases. At weaning all bull and heifer calves receive a booster with the same vaccines and bacterins used at branding. In late fall, all cows, bulls and weaned calves are treated with a topical endectocide to control internal and external parasites. As a further assurance of herd health, all MCC bulls in the sale have been tested and found negative for persistent infection of the BVD virus. All bulls in the sale have passed a thorough breeding soundness exam to evaluate scrotal size and shape, semen motility and morphology, and structural soundness. Through my long standing veterinary relationship with Mitchell Cattle Co., I also know that you can rest assured that each bull is out of a sound, solid, productive cow. Ian and Anja rigorously select their herd for fertility, sound udders, correct feet and legs, and temperament. These cows go to the mountain with their calf each year and come back in the fall for pregnancy testing. Open and late cows, or cows not meeting Mitchell Cattle Co strict criteria, are culled – no excuses, no exceptions. As the consulting veterinarian I am very proud to work with Mitchell Cattle Co. If there are any questions regarding the health management program at Mitchell Cattle Co. please contact me. Respectfully, Jason R. McGillivray, D.V.M. Kamloops Large Animal Veterinary Clinic, Ltd.

RED LAZY MC ANALYST 113A
RED U2 COPENHAGEN 108A
Analyst is another calving ease specialist but with a little more power. He is positive in almost all EPD traits being top 1% for marbling and top 7% for ribeye. As a yearling he was almost 16 inches for actual rib eye measurement, this is impressive even for Simmental bulls. We used Analyst on a big group of heifers his year and he calved well.
Sure fire calving ease genetics being in the top 5% for calving ease and birth weight. All this together with being top 5% for ribeye area and these two don’t always go together. We were very sad to lose this good young bull last spring after only one breeding season. He was very impressive with good bone and outstanding big feet.

DOUBLE G ZEPPLIN 21G Here is a bull that we had been hunting for a while. The high selling red bull out of a Saskatchewan sale. He has turned out to be Homozygous polled and a heck of a breeder. He is so smooth and out of a great old cow.
DOWNEY 106Y 106Y or Downey as we call him was the $17000 high selling bull out of their sale in Manitoba. He is a son of the great Wheatland 680 S sire and has certainly proven himself here. He is our “go to” calving ease bull, his calves are born with short gestation. We used him on all of our heifers with great success. His calves have tremendous hair coats are very sound and correct.
ERIXON POWER PLAY 102Y
RED CROWFOOT RUMBLER 2192Z
Where to start, Power Play has quite a story! We knew that he had a lot of friends sale day so we partnered with Spring Creek Simmentals and Black Sands to own him, he was the high selling red Simmental at Erixons sale at $17,250.00 and he and his four embryo sibs averaged $10,000.00. His dam 2P has produced the Agribition 2009 Grand Champion Female and again the Reserve Senior Heifer Calf Champion at CWA 2012, she has numerous progeny working in many top programs across the country. A Power Play heifer was the high seller at Black Sands dispersal for $26,000.00
HARVIE SWEET TALKER 6Z We really wanted a Wallbanger son to add to our herd after he sold for $45,000.00. Sweet Talker was the bull for the job, he was the high selling red bull out of Harvies sale in 2012.
Reference Sires bestbet_pages2016.indd 20
Crowfoot is an impressive bull to say the least. I bought him based on carcass merits and the strength of his dam. He was #3 out of 108 bulls for rib eye size with good marbling. His dam, a black cow, was the lead off lot of Crowfoot’s dispersal and was the high selling pair out of 900 lots - quite a feat! He has explosive growth and has proved to throw some birthweight but we are yet to assist a calf out of him. His first daughters calved this spring, they have beautiful udders and will definitely make their mark here.
LAZY CREEK HOTSHOT 56A HotShot is a bull we used extensively as a black calving ease bull. He has worked very well putting calves on the ground easily with lots of get up and go. HotShot is positive in almost all EPD traits including top 5% for calving ease birth weight and top 1% for marbling.

Once again it is a pleasure to join Mitchell Cattle Co. in this great sale. 2016 brings us to the 9th year for the Best Bet Bull Sale. On January 17th of this year our daughter Nicole and husband Ryan welcomed their second child, Kennedy Jane, a sister for Hannah. Our family is growing! 2015 brought us a very dry year, pastures were getting stressed late In the summer. This was compounded by a problem we haven’t encountered before, grasshoppers. This dry weather made for an early and quick haying season. We are bringing a group of bulls from several different sire groups. Lookout Wolf 6Y, was picked for his easy fleshing from a program that focuses on easy doing cattle that gain well on grass. Anderson Motive 1201, son of Soo Line Motive 9016. These cattle perform well and have stood at the top of the sales and shows on the prairies. JL Gils Answer 2008, son of SAV Final Answer 0035, well known as a calving ease bull, was purchased to be our heifer bull, and has certainly done that job well. We are calving his third set of calves and are extremely pleased with their vigor and performance. SAV Bismarck 5682, a popular A.I. sire that has left his mark across North America, we use on heifers or cows. These bulls have been vaccinated with Express 5 and Fermicon 7/Somnugen and recently treated with pour-on Ivomec. Prior to the sale the bulls will be semen tested and evaluated for soundness. They have all been tie broke. We do not sell any Angus bulls off the farm prior to the BEST BET BULL SALE. Your support for our sale has been outstanding, and we hope you can join us again in Williams Lake on April 2nd, whether you are bull shopping or not, do stop by the sale and have lunch with us and enjoy the day meeting fellow cattlemen.

Should this not be possible an adjustment will be made to reflect the value of the bull in question or a credit will be issued towards a future purchase. At no time will we be responsible for any costs exceeding the original purchase price and no guarantee is made that semen from any bull will freeze. This guarantee will not cover any situation where the animal has been subjected to mismanagement or physical injury and we will not guarantee any animal that is subjected to any hormonal or surgical reproduction techniques after the sale.
