Rendezvous 2014 sale by Today's Publishing Inc.

Greetings Everyone to our ‘One-Iron Brand’ Bull & Female Sale

There can be no compromise when it comes to the importance of customers. Here at Rendezvous Farms, our success over the many years as a purebred business depended primarily on our customer’s successes. This was always Rendezvous’ original thinking. The operational mechanisms of this conduit are easy to understand. If you, our customers succeeded, we succeeded, and this thinking must continue.

Transcon Livestock Corp. of Alberta are our official and complete ‘Sales Managers.’ This hard-working sales management team with determined leadership, combined with technical excellence, adebtly do their job for all the buyers and the seller.

Everyone here at Rendezvous Farms are happy to invite all of you to join us at Ste Rose Auction Mart and Restaurant on Monday February 10 at 11:30 am. Come dine and visit with family, friends or peers. Join us in Manitoba’s official Cattle Capital and enjoy the day. We’re very happy to serve many complimentary warm dinners of Manitoba beef and the best of refreshments will be available before, during and after our 10th Annual Sale. You must also make it to the restaurant tables featuring our stylemark dessert, boxes full of freshTim Horton’s donuts for one and all, compliments of Grandview Credit Union Ltd. Thank-you Steve Ganczar. The sale shall begin at 1:00 pm sharp, under the hammer of our auctioneer, Colonel Chris Poley. Be in the main sales ring seated in comfort to witness our live bulls and heifers sell.

Monday, February 10th will be our annual auction. We believe Rendezvous has created a competitive purebred livestock platform for anyone searching for those cutting-edge genetics. The combination of our strong red program, our additional black program, along with our dependable and time-tested fullbloods, reflects the work of a focused team here at the farm. Everything we undertake at our cattle division is aimed at helping our customers make sense of complexity and succeed through the purchase of our product. From Rendezvous Farms, you may choose your next herdbulls by viewing and studying this catalog with the help of recently taken visual images, complete pedigrees with their EPD’s, alongside other data-based information. A must read is David’s individual comments referencing every lot selling. You may decide to choose another option which is to come in person to the farm prior to the sale and inspect the sales offering, living under fairly harsh but uniform environmental conditions. We believe our wide spectrum of bulls will meet all of your individual needs. Your rewards for owning the right bulls at the right time can be legendary. Rendezvous Farms are now very able to access you a sustainable and secure supply of Simmental beef bulls this February 10th and beyond. Having orientated ourselves to the current landscape, we shall marshall ~80 “One-Iron Brand” Rendezvous walking beef-bulls to town come February 10. Not to be forgotten as a result of the sheer size of our bull offering, we are also making available 30 high quality pedigreed open replacement females, many serially selected for this Transcon managed event from the upper-end of our heifer pen. These future Simmental mothers can then be bred this spring to the bull of your choice. Their resulting calves may be pearls beyond measure. Monday, February 10th does offer you a smorgasbord of opportunities for anyone!

In closing, the outcome of the cattle industry is now hardly in doubt. This is still a song in progress. I say the best is yet to come. Forget the wastelands of pessimism. World-wide beef demand is on the rise and it paints an alarming picture of beef shortages. Strong beef markets in 2013 were a great victory after the last brutal decade. A critical lesson dominates my mind. Cattle prices flows and ebbs, and hard-core, long-term subscribers are always rewarded. Hence, the spirit cannot be broken. Let us all soldier-on.

Gerald and David have hand-picked every catalogued lot for your appraisal & inspection. Only the ones with the best of fundamentals get to make it to Myles Masson’s conveniently-located Ste Rose sales facility. I am biased, but am still prepared to state publicly that my sons, David and Gerald have gained a high level of knowledge in the realm of understanding the complexities of livestock genetics and then making it work. They are fiercely objective and disciplined with their priorities. They enrich their work environment with teamwork, enthusiasm that is contagious, coupled with a “can do” attitude.

Thanks for reading this and have a good day with family and friends. RICHARD MAGUET General Manager of Rendezvous Farms cattle division

They study the science of where to find what may seem to others as completely unscientific and then spontaneously apply it to enhance, establish, and only then do they proceed with the many hundreds of individual matings that need be done here, come early spring at Rendezvous.

Sales Management Comments The “Rendezvous” name is established as one of the longest operating breeding farms of registered seedstock in North America, but most notably as one of the founders of Simmental cattle in the province of Manitoba. This fourth generation family farming enterprise is proud of the fact they are exclusive to agriculture as a livelihood. Not only does the papered Simmental cowherd number as one of the highest in Manitoba, but operates alongside an ever growing grain operation within one of Canada’s premiere agricultural communities.

“Trigger”. The Black segment of the bull pen continues to grow in both quantity and quality and we will see this trend in years to come as Rendezvous becomes a known source to prairie breeders for Black Simmental bulls. An excellent group of heifers will be offered this year, representing the same sire groups as their brothers in the bull sale. Breeders need to be prepared for this early sale date to source some quality replacements from a proven, established program designed to raise bulls in the “Cattle Capital of Manitoba!”

To be successful in the “bull selling” business, it continues to prove itself that breeders who are successful selling bulls, are always sourcing quality herdsires for their own program. This effort is evident when analyzing the Rendezvous bull pen. The Fullblood bulls are led by one of the strongest groups that will be found anywhere north of the 49th. There are many big, soggy, hairy, polled sons of the LaBatte bred “Nero”. I’m very impressed with this set of brothers, again sired by “Nero”, who himself was out of one of the best Fullblood cows to ever work in the LaBatte herd. High performance Red Simmie bulls will be offered by “Hummer” and

EPDs: 3.3 5.3 80.6 123.3 14.0 64.4 24.1 Hummer 217U is turning out to be one heck of a breeding bull. His sons and daughters are the kind of cattle that are so right for the times. His sire is the $38,000 Wheatland Red Hummer 608S who was purchased by Double Bar D and Swan Lake. The dam is a tremendous R Plus Red Ribeye cow who goes back to LaBatte’s famed IPU Red Pocahontas 105L cow. The 105L cow is the dam of Robb Farms’ famed 71N cow that has made them big dollars in the last few years. Enough about pedigree and past accomplishments, the IPU Red Hummer 217U bull saw heavy service the last few breeding seasons after seeing how his first crop developed so well. What we really like about Hummer is his large, wide, square made quarters. When you walk behind him, one can’t help but be impressed with the pair of pants he boasts. His length & scale is another huge selling point. He is maturing into an elite herdsire here at the farm. Hummer’s calves are born easily and at two days of age, they are all the same -- low set and the widest topped babies on the place. Hummer raises the cowboy kind of bulls who will only make you money.

After the first five calves were born, we knew that Caesar 584 would become a permanent fixture at the ranch. A good herd bull always breeds better than himself, point in case is with this Caesar line. Every generation seems to impress us more and more. The calves from Caesar 584 are small at birth, but turn into curve bending growth machines. When touring people in the herd sire pasture, a lot of folks seem to gravitate towards this young herd sire. To make things even better, Caesar 584 is also homozygous polled.

A naturally easy keeping, fleshy type bull, we’ve worked him hard since we’ve owned him and yet every fall he’s in tip top condition. Trigger was the lead off and high selling bull at the Herdmaster’s 2012 Bull Sale where we purchased him for $26,000. Glen Maxwell stated that this was the best red bull they had raised and coming from Glen, we don’t take that lightly. Trigger’s style, thickness, flesh and body frame is what we’ve been looking for. Homozygous polled as well, we’ve had numerous offers from semen companies and individuals to purchase semen or shares in Trigger. We feel the best way to get a piece of the pie is by owning a direct son as they are developing into tremendous herdbull prospects.

His sire is the well known and respected Shawacres Jahari who has had quite an impact on the breed in recent years. Proven breeding on both parent’s sides. We were very pleased with Jahari’s first set of calves; they were built right and displayed good muscling and color. The Jahari cattle are easy keeping, very fleshy and just darn good. His daughters are now into full production and they are raising us some top notch calves, year after year. Check out his sons and daughters selling, they will definitely catch your eye.

Draco is the best footed bull we have ever owned, he moves like a cat and is very long bodied. A great Photo taken September 2010 disposition and style to burn, we have nothing but good things to say about this meat machine. His calves are small at birth, get up and suck and then go to work, plain and simple. We even used Draco on a group of heifers this spring, that’s how well this guy works. We would like to thank our friends, Derek & Emile Brunel of North SIDE Farms Ltd., for having sold us this powerful beef bull. Draco walked the pastures for three seasons at North SIDE before making his way south to Rendezvous. The Brunels were extremely pleased with their Draco progeny and felt that he should be used in a purebred herd to help advance the Simmental breed. While doing some research on the pedigree, you will notice the dam’s sire, Kykso Kalger, the K Line in South Africa means pigment, calving ease and good muscle, this describes Draco.

Nero is extremely well filled in the flank area and travels quite smoothly. Add all of the above plus a pedigree that’s second to none, and it’s no wonder that this bull is doing things right. Nero is not only impressing us, but his calves are really drawing some serious attention from everyone.

He kind of reminds us of the Paramount cattle and he really crosses well with those daughters too.

Sired by the ever popular Wheatland 680S bull, Shamrock spells out performance. A long bodied, easy moving, thick made individual whose calves rival any of the other sired groups in our program. This hetero black bull also adds some different pedigree for our red bull customers. We urge you to look over these Shamrock sons and daughters. They will blow your socks off. Shamrock is now working at Darwin Froese’s herd, so this will be your last opportunity to purchase sons or daughters of this great breeding bull.

POLLED FULLBLOOD MALE P790643 AIA 442A 1 January 2013 This has been one of my favorite bulls all year long. The sheer capacity of this bull is what truly amazes me. 442A has so much power and scale. He’s wide topped, full of meat and muscle with a great spring of rib. Get behind him and you can’t help but grin when you see the thickness he possesses. Such a deep ribbed, easy keeping bull with a monster weaning weight of 1105 lbs. That’s the kind of performance this great breed is all about. Now, the icing on the cake…he’s POLLED but has the horned bull’s thickness and phenotype. Realistically, this bull shouldn’t be leaving our yard, since we’ll probably end up burning a set of tires looking for another bull of this magnitude. 442A could very well be a herd changer for anyone with Fullblood cattle. Selling Full Possession and retaining 1/3 semen interest.

POLLED FULLBLOOD MALE AIA 557A 3 January 2013

Another heavy hitter in the Fullblood pen, this powerful bull has the added bonus of being polled too. Built like a barrel on legs, this stout bull is sure to be popular among cattlemen. This was one of Ben Wright’s top picks when touring this fall. Anyone wanting to keep their calves polled and add some extra Fullblood punch to their red cows will definitely have this guy marked down. 1040 lbs at weaning time is worth mentioning.

A standout bull who’s turning a lot of heads. Blaze faced Fullblood with a thick, luscious hair coat. This bull is all meat and no potatoes. You can almost feel his meaty texture just by looking at him. Deep sided with tons of rib, filled in the flank and thick butted, he’s a real knockout. He was one of the heavyweights this fall, crunching the scale at 1095 lbs. A very impressive individual to say the least. His mother is a great, young Jahari cow with a perfect udder and great feet. Her son in last year’s sale was purchased by Dwayne and Shelly Moffat of Rorketon. A favorite among visitors this year, he’s the kind of bull we’d drive miles to go out and buy for our own program.

An extraordinarily long bodied, goggle eyed, Polled Fullblood bull. His lovely red color is quite attractive and his hair is to be desired by all. Thick butted and well filled in the flank this powerful bull should definitely have some friends on sale day. If you’ve been using a lot of reds because of the polled trait, give this bull a try. He’ll cross like a charm on those red cattle and still knock the horns off. Mothered by a good cow family that always bring home a heavy calf in the fall.

Here’s a hairy IPU Nero son with great length and style. The dam of this bull has been a very hard working, good producing cow. This is her fourth son in a row to go through the sales ring. We don’t have to go very far to find her sons in action either. Larkspur Ranch of Eddystone have two of them working in their awesome herd and Armand and Coline Verhaeghe of Ste Rose own the other son. We are grateful for repeat and loyal customers such as the Verhaeghes and Johnsons.

POLLED FULLBLOOD MALE AIA 60A 26 January 2013

Homozygous Polled. Truly an interesting herdbull candidate, he reminds us a lot of his sire when we purchased him. Low to the ground, thick butted, soggy and well filled in the flank area. Take note of how his quarter is so deep and holds all that meat. The mother of this bull has been a stellar producing MFI Supreme cow. She’s dark red, thick made and very well balanced. Her sons have averaged $6000, both going to purebred breeders. Westgold Farms of Minburn, AB is using a maternal brother to 60A in their awesome program. We look forward to seeing sons sell in Ken’s sale. Bristol View Farms of Shawville, QC also selected a maternal brother a few years ago. 60A would be a great breeder bull candidate and sells in his entirety.

Possibly the most talked about bull in the pen since weaning time. Here’s a herdbull in the making and a powerful one to say the least. This Smuggler son has been a standout since birth, perfect color markings, low to the ground, big testicles with lots of rib and shape. This thick butted bull is amazingly long and is built the way we want our herdbulls to look like. His mother is a feature cow that could be on the cover of any magazine. We always make a point of showing her off in pasture tours. This is the 4th bull she’s produced and every year she just cranks out a showstopper. She has two sons in MB, Larkspur Ranch Ltd., and Richard Puhach each owning one. Hal and Drew Parks of Rocanville, SK selected the other son on a sight unseen deal. We’ve contemplated keeping this bull but since this is his sire NUG Smuggler’s first calf crop, we have decided to sell 577A, but not without hesitation on our part. A golden opportunity for any Fullblood enthusiast. We would like to retain 100 straws of semen for in herd use.

A very well packaged bull with great pigmentation and tremendous hair. With last year’s winter, we can all appreciate some extra hair on our cattle. Born easily at 90 lbs, this moderate made Fullblood has a stellar pedigree to boot. We purchased his good Houston sired mother from the Bonchuks where she led off their fall female sale a few years ago. This 104A bull offers outcross genetics to our customers whom have been using a lot of Jahari and Paramount breeding.

Is there such a thing as too much hair for these cold prairie winters? We don’t think so and 561A had no trouble staying warm this year. Lots of length, big testicles, he’s just got herdbull written all over him. The mother of this bull is a beautiful young cow that’s really a model of what we want our females to look like. She’s also raised a son that’s working at the Poschenrieder Farms Ltd. Be sure to ask Dustin about his Rendezvous bulls and how well they’ve worked for him.

Another hairy Fullblood bull sired by our new and exciting NUG Smuggler herdsire. Smuggler stamps them all with a lot of hair and great length. 62A was born with a low 84 lbs birth weight but he’s kept up with the rest as time went on. If you’ve got some big Charcross cows that need some hair and maternal power, this could be the solution.

A great Fullblood pedigreed bull. Check out the stellar sires who stack up this guy’s ancestry. The Jahari dam is an awesome cow who always raises a good calf. We’ve retained a daughter for our own use and two others have gone through our annual sale, both going into great purebred programs, Pine Creek Simmentals of Alberta and Lochwood Simmentals here in Manitoba.

Here’s a super good NUG Smuggler son whom we’ve always really admired. He’s very clean fronted, deep ribbed and evenly made from all ends. We really like his head and structure and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this bull on a sight unseen deal. Randy Geisler of Ashern purchased a maternal brother in our 2012 sale for use in his large scaled cow/calf operation.

A smaller made bull but he should still mature into a fair sized individual. Complete pedigree and quiet temperament as well. The dam is a moderate framed Kingbuster daughter who stays in good condition and breeds back year after year. Maternal brothers both went into Manitoba’s Interlake area, one at Paul Ryden’s of Eriksdale and the other at Randy Geisler’s in Ashern.

An end of February born Smuggler son mothered by a big, powerful Jahari daughter. If longevity and maternal power is of importance to your program, which we believe should be, then we should also talk about the great grand dam still being in production at 12 years of age. Be sure to check out this red goggle eyed beef bull. He comes to us in an attractive package.

This is the 7th son to sell from the 558P cow. We are really hoping she gives us a heifer calf this winter since it would be her first. She’s not the biggest cow in the herd but she seems to crank out bull calves one after another, averaging right in that $4500 range. Some of her recent sons have been selected by Ed, Debbie and Sydney DeKoning of Eden (congrats on your $1326 steers sold in December) and Poschenreider Farms of Westbourne. If you’re wanting consistency, it’s time to buy a 558P son.

Here’s a real cowboy kind of bull! Rugged made, thick butted, wide topped and long bodied with big testicles. He crunched the scale at weaning time, weighing in at 1020 lbs. He’s also in the top 4% of the breed when it comes to WW EPDs. We don’t do any showing of cattle because we feel the sales ring is the ultimate judge of livestock. 533A wouldn’t be the type to win a show but he will be the type to produce thick, fleshy steers that capture you the most amount of dollars at the auction barn. That’s the kind of cattle we like to raise, the money makin’ kind!

We keep breeding the mother of this bull to Jahari year after year because it’s a bullet proof combination. The best testament of customer satisfaction is when we see full brothers being bought the following year and this is exactly what the good people at E & C Livestock have done. Eugene and Christine have two full brothers to 16A working in their highly productive herd north of Laurier.

Here’s a roaring powerhouse of a bull and to top it off he’s polled! If your goal is to add weight to your calf crop and not want to deal with horns, well this is definitely the bull for the job. An early January born bull weaning off at just over 1000 lbs is truly impressive. Kelly and Lorraine Johnson of Eddystone are using two maternal brothers as part of their herdbull arsenal. The Johnsons are big time believers in using Fullblood bulls and it sure paid off when they sold their calves in Ashern last December. Kelly tells us that the Rendezvous fullblood sired calves were his most profitable group.

Here’s a cherry red right-down-to-the-front-hoofs, goggle eyed, Fullblood bull who should be in demand. Check out his numbers. He’s in the top 3% of the breed when it comes to the WW EPD. This good Jahari son should produce an even set of thick butted steers without forgetting some valuable replacement females. A full brother was purchased in last year’s sale by Darryl Goosen of Kelwood. Darryl is also the owner of Ridge Road Welding who manufactures and sells free standing corral panels.

If your objective of the year is to add more size and scale to your calf crop, I don’t know of a better candidate than 586A. Combining Jahari and Paramount genetics together have worked well. 586A should mature into a large bull with a big hoof under him. Last year’s brother was selected by Shawn Buchanan of McCreary. The Buchanans have been long time customers and run a very good mixed farming operation. Glen Aldentaler of South Dakota also has a brother to 586A and paid top dollar to own him back in 2011.

Another dark red, goggle eyed Jahari bull that’s soggy made and certainly deep bodied. It’s getting a little tougher every year to find these good Fullblood bulls. Maybe that’s the reason why a full brother to 56A was our high selling Fullblood bull in our 2012 sale. He was selected by Pearl Valley Simmentals of Ross, ND. The Vachals took two Fullblood bulls back to North Dakota that year and have used them with great success. Cross them on reds and blacks and watch your weaning weights climb.

Fortunately this guy did make it and we feel that he should add that perfect blend of calving ease and growth to his calf crop. His Anchor “T” Impact mother is just an awesome female whom we always point out while touring the herd.

Here’s another good Draco son who will just be a year old sale day. Mothered by a second calf Paramount daughter only sweetens the deal. Big ole goggles, beautiful red color, lots of middle, thickness and depth, this bull has a lot of eye appeal. The grandmother of this bull, 521K, is 14 years of age and still in calf for 2014. She’s never missed a beat and raised a lot of good bulls for us over the years. Excellent cow family in our books. Be sure to take a look at 520A on sale day.

An end of February born Fullblood bull who’s smooth made and has a great conformation. This fella should be easy calving with his nice head and clean front end. The dam is a tremendous Kingbuster cow that also raised a son who’s working in the purebred herd of Little Willow Creek Ranch, Frenchman Butte, SK. As you already guessed it was only -40 something when picturing these bulls so there will be some frost on their hair coats.

Here’s your last opportunity to buy a Paramount son. Over the years Paramount produced more saleable sons than we can even count. They just seemed to be what the commercial industry was looking for; hair, length, performance and pounds. If you wanted to raise good cattle, a Paramount sired bull was definitely the mode of transportation. This herdbull prospect is no different; thick made, square hipped with awesome length and lovely hair. 64A just has that herdbull look to him. Proven genetics at its finest, buy this guy and let him make you money.

Another long bodied Fullblood bull with an excellent hair coat. Hair is something we put a lot of emphasis on, as do many other producers. A full brother to 407A was selected by Daron Priest and Greg Young of Frenchman Butte, SK in our 2012 sale. What Daron and Greg really liked about our bulls was not only their thickness and size but their hair. 407A is no different and would cross exceptionally well on some Hereford based cattle.

Born at 84 lbs, solid red & mothered by a blaze faced dam and stemming from a fantastic cow family, 567A is another solid candidate for anyone’s herd. I feel like I want to mention the same things over and over when writing about these Trigger sons. They are all like peas in a pod. We really enjoy raising bulls for the commercial industry and adding value to our customers’ calf crops. The structure on these Trigger sons are just flawless. They will add more depth & top to your calves, especially if you’ve been using a lot of Red Angus. These bulls are born, bred & raised under ranch conditions and must perform in those environments.

This guy was born unassisted at 80 lbs to a second calver. His beautiful Icon mother did a heck of a job raising him. We’ve been so happy with these Trigger calves. They’re all so similar and group up so nicely. Evenness in your calf crop is playing an ever increasing role in marketing, with the demand for large, uniform sired calves bringing top dollar at auction marts across the country this fall. The trend to purchase half and ¾ brothers and run them on a group of cows is probably one of the best decisions you’ll make. These Trigger sons will go out and get the job done.

Rightfully so, take a good look at him and one can’t help but appreciate his sheer depth, thickness, length and bone structure. He weaned off at a whopping 1000 lbs this fall. Now, check out who his momma is…Icon x Kameo daughter who’s proving to us that she can do like Kameo and raise top end bull calves.

We think you will have trouble deciding which one of these Trigger sired bulls you like best. He is stamping his sons just like he is; deep-sided, thick quartered, wide-topped with herd bull character. 463A is no exception, just look at the capacity he displays. I think this guy could live off willows all year and still be conditioned, he’s just that easy keeping. Throw in an Icon daughter as his mother and that only adds value to this big fella. This solid red bull will add pounds to anyone’s calf crop. With record calf prices, maximum poundage is money in the bank and it happens with power bulls such as 463A.

If you need a few powerful blaze faced bulls this year, I don’t know where you will find more selection than this offering. 468A is a sound bull who will develop into a dream machine, just like his sire. He’s turned a lot of heads in the pen with his conformation and herdbull look. Check out this meat wagon. He’ll have a crowd around him in the pen on sale day.

His dam has been a great producing female who’s developed into a model cow. 403A is a real cowboy kind of bull and has the potential to work in any kind of program. Neil and Patricia Bray purchased a maternal brother for $5000 a few years back. The Brays are well respected cattle producers in this area and are known not to cut corners, and it shows every time they select bulls for their operation.

Sired by the high selling $26,000 NUG Trigger bull we purchased from Maxwells, this young herdbull candidate does a lot of things right. Clean front end, fine bone with tons of middle and thickness. Many generations red and most likely homozygous polled as well judging by his pedigree and peak of his head.

The Black Diamond cow does it again, as year after year she never misses. We only have one daughter out of her and we’re really hoping she gives us another this year. However, her bull calves have been very well received and this year’s calf is no exception. He’s solid red, with lots of eye appeal and moves very easily. Turn him out in the pasture and go seeding, he’ll get the job done. Last year’s maternal brother went to repeat customers and very well respected mixed farmers, the Gilmores of Bar 7 Farms, Kelwood. Two other brothers are working in the herds of MJD Farms Inc., and Jim and Pat Zuk’s respectively.

A deep bodied, super soggy, thick butted, blaze faced bull that’s been catching cattlemen’s attention in the pen. An easy keeping bull who’s got a very fluid movement. These blaze faced bulls are sure popular, and that shot of chrome in your calves will indicate the Simmie influence and the buyers will add that extra cent to their bid. A maternal brother, who was also blaze faced was purchased by the good folks at Thorsteinson Land and Livestock of Foam Lake, SK for $6500.

We really like these Hummer sons. They are all like peas in a pod, year after year. Red, polled, blaze faced, tremendous length of spine, great depth of rib and a thick hind quarter, this bull has herdsire stamped all over him. Lovely hair and tremendous conformation, bulls like 417A are what we strive to produce for our customers. If you’re serious about a powerful, blaze faced bull, we would highly recommend this fellow to anyone. The dam of this bull is a powerful cow with a lovely udder and stays in great condition year round. 417A has a sister working at Triple T Diamond in Lundar and a brother at Paul Toth’s of Langbank, SK. This fella would be a ¾ brother to our 2012 high selling red bull that Curtis Zdan purchased for $11,500. Ask Curtis about his Hummer and Icon bulls and how well they work in his top notch program. Definitely a sale feature.

An end of January born Hummer son that’s mothered by one of our original and very best Kingbuster cows. This blaze faced beef bull will no doubt raise some tremendous females as there’s tons of maternal power in this guy. Richard Puhach of McCreary and Alfred and Aaron Bergman of Langenburg, SK all have full brothers to 415A.

If you haven’t had the chance to use a Hummer son, February 10 is the day to get the job done. An awesome polled, blaze faced bull with tons of middle and quarter. Hummer sons have been very popular in our sales and it’s no wonder with progeny like this. The mother of this bull has raised sons that are working at McPeak’s in ND and Shawn Buchanan’s of McCreary. Doug Paulgaard of Provost, AB also bought a son in 2011 through Wilf Davis’ keen eye.

A younger fella, born in early March to a tank of a cow. Lighter colored, so if you’re into raising those buckskin calves for the eastern market this bull would fit in nicely to that kind of a program. Lots of length and sired by Hummer, how can you go wrong? We’ve kept two sisters to this guy for our own herd and they are really strong producing young females. Brothers to 608A are working at Klein Ranching of Eddystone and one is out at long time customers the McPeaks of North Dakota.

432A is tied for being the youngest of our offering and he’s sure no slouch of a bull either! He has a nice crest, attractive color and should be light on his feet. If you turn your bulls out later on in the warmer months, it’s always a good idea to have a few spares and sometimes these later born bulls are the real bargains. The dam of this bull has been a really consistent producer and has sons working at Tim Brown’s, ND and Ron Jarvis’, MB.

Here’s a bull I’ve been admiring for quite some time. Our youngest born bull being a middle of March calf, however he stacks right up with the big January boys. If this guy had been born two months earlier, chances are he would’ve been the heaviest bull of the day. Just analyze this guy for a minute, one can’t help but appreciate his depth, thickness and scale. This Hummer son should be a real tank. We raised a full brother that was the same. He was purchased by Glen Aldentatler of Britton, SD for $6500 in 2012.

It seems that I always want to use the word “solid” when describing the Specialist cattle, but that’s for a valid reason, they’re all heavy and solid muscled cattle. This bull is sensationally long bodied so get behind him, you’ll like what you see. His color would work well on some Charolais based cows. Those buckskin calves will be popular with the order buyers.

His mother is a highly productive Jahari daughter who’s raised us a daughter for our herd and has a son working at Neil and Patricia Bray’s in Eddystone. A full brother to 435A sold last year to Darwin Froese of Grandview.

A finer made, very quiet, moderate framed Specialist son who stems from a very productive cow family. We could go back seven generations and those mother cows were all sound bull producers.

An early February born brown bull mothered by an SU Pilot daughter.

Homozygous Polled. Blaze faced for three generations on both sides of this guy’s parents. We feel 599A is something a little special. He has some awesome calving ease bulls in his pedigree yet they all have adequate performance, style and structure. 599A could very well be that heifer bull that can still produce a heavy calf come weaning time. 78 lbs birth weight and a weaning weight of 940 lbs, he’s truly a growth curve bender. His mother is a beautiful young female with a nice tidy udder. The grandmother and great grandmother both have bulls selling in the sale, look up lots 4 & 33 to see their production, definitely something worth noting. Be it in a purebred or commercial herd, this bull has a lot of potential for his new owner.

We just love these Caesar X Icon cattle, the bone structure is just truly amazing. 445A was born easily to a first calf heifer with a low 75 lbs birth weight and weaned off at just shy of 900 lbs. Kudos to the parents on that feat. We’ve yet to find a better bloodline for calving ease and growth than the Caesar line. We’d definitely encourage you to take advantage of that fact.

A blaze faced Caesar 584 son out of a first calf Hummer daughter. A middle of the road individual with a balanced set of numbers. Clean fronted, smooth shouldered like all Caesar 584 progeny, if you want to sleep easily through calving season then check this guy out.

Another admirable solid red bull out of a first calf heifer. 88 lbs birth weight with a +7.1 CE EPD. Just evaluate his structure, and it’s not hard to see that he’ll calve like a dream. Quiet disposition, easy keeping and with Icon in his pedigree there will be lots of milk. We sure like the Caesar cattle and so does everyone else who walks in the pen.

These first cross bulls are always our favorites. They combine the best of both worlds in one attractive package. Large testicles, thick butted, wide topped, straight back and with a perfect profile, this bull will be a money maker for his new owner. Outcross genetics with his parents. The sire, Legend, now calls Swan River home out at Kris Martin’s.

BLACK POLLED PUREBRED MALE BPG790655 AIA 455A 2 January 2013

Looking for a powerful, black blaze faced bull this year? You’ve probably already circled this fella high on your list. Rightfully so, this long bodied beef bull stands even on all four corners and seems to look good from any angle. Check out his tremendous weaning weight, 1000 lbs! Just picture the steers out of this bull. They’ll be barn burners when you come to sell them. You’ll want to keep every daughter as a replacement, as there’s nothing more popular than a group of black baldy heifers. Repeat customers Dwayne and Shelly Moffat of Rorketon purchased a maternal brother in last year’s sale.

BLACK POLLED PUREBRED MALE BPG790665 AIA 422A 3 January 2013

Here’s a black, polled, half Fleckvieh bull who has length to burn, just like his sire. 422A has a perfect blaze. I can just picture the set of replacement females he’ll throw, as they should be impressive. The SU Regal cow stems from the great Stulberg herd and we selected her as a high selling open many years ago. She’s raised daughters that went on to work at LaBatte Simmentals, Westgold Farms and Crocus Ridge Simmentals. Lots of maternal power in this great herdbull prospect.

BLACK POLLED PUREBRED MALE BPG790684 AIA 600A 7 January 2013

Talk about a tank on four legs, and blaze faced to boot. Here’s what we call a meat wagon. Stout made, square hipped with tons of thickness and natural fleshing. A wide topped bull who will mature into a powerful individual. 600A’s brother in last year’s sale was built the same and sold for $5500. I had the pleasure of selecting him for a long time customer and friend, Ray Girard of Lake Francis, MB. Be sure to leave this bull in a pasture along a heavily traveled road. Your neighbors will be slowing down checking this guy out.

We probably should have tested him. None the less, his dam is a tremendous Hummer daughter who’s always in great condition. We’re starting to have a large number of young Hummer daughters in production and they are really stepping up to the plate. The sire of this bull, Westgold Stealth, has done a great job on his first calf crop and saw heavy service last spring. Be the first to own a Stealth son and bring this herdsire prospect home, your cows will be thankful.

Long as a set of super Bs, he really reminds us of his sire, Westgold Stealth. Great hair with a nice combination of depth and thickness all packaged together nicely. This bull would work great on some smaller framed Angus cows. He’ll add some size and length to his calves without any additional attention at calving time.

Low to the ground, lots of thickness, super easy keeping and above all, mothered by a beautiful uddered, deep bodied Icon female.

Darwin may have caught us in a weak moment when he purchased Shamrock. His calves are as long bodied as they get and full of muscle. We encourage you to use one of his sons since this will be the last year of his offering.

We will be calving out his first set of daughters this winter and we really like what we’ve seen so far. This lovely female will be a nice addition to anyone’s herd and would make a great 4H or YCS project.

Fertility and longevity are important traits to all of us cattle producers. This particular heifer’s cow family is simply quite amazing in that realm. We can trace her pedigree and we have four generations of Rendezvous cows still producing in the herd with the great great grandmother still due to calve in January at the age of 11.

Another good Specialist daughter mothered by one of our very biggest and long bodied cows in the herd. The 524T cow has been a great producing cow. Her son brought $7000 in last year’s sale from Skurdalen Farms Ltd., Doug and Jodi Paulgaard of Provost, AB. Ms Skittles 181A has a very balanced set of EPDs ranking in the top 10% of the breed for Milk with a 34.1.

We had the misfortune of losing her mother to lightning mid-summer so Ms Skittles 164A was on her own since then. Brothers to this heifer have consistently been standouts and have been some of the best bulls bought by leading mixed farms such as Bar 7, the Gilmore crew out in Kelwood and Miguel LeGall of Ste Rose. These guys will tell you straight up that their “611” bulls are the real deal.
