Rendezvous Welcome It is with great excitement and anticipation that we welcome you to our 15th Annual Bull & Female sale held at the Ste Rose Auction Mart right off the #5 hwy.

We as a family & farming enterprise are not newcomers to the Simmental breed as 2019 marks our 40th year in this great breed and 75th year in the purebred business. Credit must be given to grandpa Laurent for his vision & tenacity to start out in the purebred world with no previous experience or knowledge but just knowing he wanted to raise the “right kind” of cattle for his fellow commercial breeders. Having sold thousands of bulls over the course of 75 years is truly a remarkable & rewarding experience & milestone all at the same time.

Today, our thought process is really no different as our end goals have remained the same which is to raise the most functional, easy keeping, profitable beef cattle we can for the commercial breeder. “Real World Cattle” as we like to call them, they are not pampered & run in a very similar fashion as to the way our customers run their own programs. As most of you know we’ve invested heavily in our Herdbull battery every year to assure that our customers can access the best genetics possible to in turn create the most profitable return on investment. We like to think that we practice what we preach. We take Herdbull buying very seriously & commit serious money in our Herdsires as it has proven over time to be the fastest way to improve one’s herd & the lasting impact is huge. Be it the grain or cattle side of our operation, we are truly believers of reaping what we sow & look towards the grand scheme of things in how we can improve what we do.

Being Manitoba’s Largest One Stop Shop for Simmental bulls & females makes this sale a must attend destination for any producer looking to improve their own program. We can help you get all of your bull shopping done in one day which is of huge value to all busy, progressive cattle producers. We are extremely proud & happy with the way the entire sale offering has developed and as every year we offer large sire groups of half & ¾ siblings which truly show the consistency on how well our exclusively owned walking bulls breed. Hairy Rugged Beef Bulls is what you will find, be it performance or calving ease bulls or curve bender growth bulls we have all the bases covered in Red, Black or Fullblood divisions.

The 60 heifers on offer are of very strong quality. They are the same as what goes in our replacement pen...we just can’t keep them all! Be assured you will have quality in quantity to choose from which makes this well worth your time to browse over this large selection. All sale cattle are developed on a high roughage TMR designed by Eric Van Meijl of Masterfeeds to ensure proper growth & longevity in your newly purchased animal.

Our sales staff is readily available to help you with any selection or order buying needs if you cannot be with us in person on February 18th, HolidayMonday. We highly encourage you to call or text anyone from the Transcon or T Bar C teams. These professional cattlemen are people that we fully trust to act on our own behalf throughout the year. They will act on your behalf with total discretion & make sure that you are represented just the same as if you were there in person.

We are always around the yard at this time of year & would be more than happy to tour the bull pen or the mothers/sires of these fine bulls & heifers prior to the sale. Don’t hesitate to call or text if you wish to view the sale cattle. We would love to help you in selecting your next herdsire(s) or replacement females.

It is with great importance that we thank all customers from previous years as it is truly a team effort in creating everyone’s success in the livestock business. We thank you for the privilege of your business & look forward to many more years of raising quality driven bulls & females. I’d also like to thank our dad Richard for his years of undertaking the first page welcome & now leaving me the opportunity to do the same.

We look forward to seeing you February 18th in Manitoba’s Cattle Capital.

Yours Truly,

David B Maguet

Sales Management Comments This event is always a fantastic way for us to launch into the province’s bull sale season, especially being hosted in “the Cattle Capital of Manitoba”!

This larger than average production sale features a cross section of sire groups owned by Rendezvous Farms and represents both sexes from the same respective calendar year of 2018! Multiple purchases are a very legitimate possibility, male and/or female, which has been a norm to past sales.

It is well known that the ownership of Rendezvous Farms takes the responsibility of their own herdbull shopping as seriously as anyone in the business. This has shown over the years and the high quality fraternities of brothers that are constantly offered in this sale give the public many buying options. As well, the diversity offered from this large breeding program only adds to more selection and opportunity. Not many other places can offer you so many multiple brothers to enhance consistency or take advantage of matching, or in essence almost like a cross-breeding scenario, mixing Fullblood with Red with Black Simmental genetics and reap the hybrid vigor rewards. A generous supply of calving ease designed bulls are also always available. To summarize, the potential to accentuate your breeding program, and more importantly, your bottom-line, is offered in many ways and most likely for multiple purchases! Not to cut the vast cowherd short, it is most certainly a bonus to know that your new Rendezvous bull(s) is/are mothered by this cowherd that has been in the making for decades!

With that last sentence, this leads us nicely into the female section of the sale. The largest group ever offered in the Rendezvous production sale will be sold this year! In that, more heifers offered means more quality too! I think you will be impressed as you flip through this catalog and start into the female pages. There is only one time per year that papered Rendezvous Farms females are sold publicly and it’s always on “Holiday Monday in February”!

This is a fourth generational agricultural family that makes their sole livelihood from the mixed farm. Not only are they farmers, but very astute business people who don’t shy away from long hours and family sacrifice. Be sure that when when you are purchasing from a Rendezvous sale, the finances are going straight back into the agricultural community.

If you’re not able to attend the sale but would like to participate, you may contact any of us at Transcon Livestock for assistance. We have successfully purchased many Rendezvous cattle over the years for absentee buyers and are happy to help. Simply call any of our cell phones listed.

See you Holiday Monday, Jaymes E. (Jay) Good

Homo Polled. We’re quite excited with Red Express! He was the lead off bull at Herdmasters 2013. Doug Zimmer had nothing but praise for his mother, especially since Red Express was her first calf. Express was truly one of the thickest, deepest bodied bulls we saw in the spring of 2013. This stout made bull is an impressive individual, one of the only yearling bulls we’ve used that never lost any condition during breeding season. His super dark red color is something he passes on to his progeny as well.

The combination of length, thickness & middle to this herd sire is something that blends nicely.

His calves are born small & easy, they then keep growing & performing well. We believe Red Express will have a bright future here at RF. Look over his sons & daughters, you will like them too!

Homo Polled. Finding that right heifer bull is always a challenge & a half for any producer. Red Knight was earmarked for that purpose when we purchased him in 2014. Mothered by a black Powerline first calf daughter, Terry & Debbie Skoretz felt he would calve well & also give the kind of performance we were looking for from our heifers. Not one single calf of his was assisted at birth & man do they look good a year later. Red Knight travels like a hovercraft, smooth & steady. His muscle expression is impressive & he is developing into a well-balanced, smooth made herdsire. Red Knights has really stepped up to the plate and has surpassed all our expectations in every domain. Perhaps our most ‘undiscovered’ herdsire we use.

When we saw Mandako with our own eyes, we just knew we had to own him. The depth of body, natural thickness, amazing hair coat & quarters that came down deep made him the ideal red bull we needed to add to our herdsire roster. Mandako turned out to be the high selling red of the day commanding $40,000 but he was worth every penny. Sired by the elite Godfather bull & mothered by a tremendous female that Doug Zimmer raved about, the pedigree in Mandako is bullet proof. We feel that Mandako’s progeny will be the herd building type.

The quest for a heifer bull can be a challenging one at times, never being 100% certain until the calves are born. However, with Red Rambo, you could bet the farm on him, he is a heifer bull!! And a damn good one too! We really took a liking to this bull when we toured the Fornwald pen on a cold -35 morning out in Lampman, SK. Rambo is a paternal brother to the ever popular KWA FLYF Red Mountain bull going back to some solid IPU breeding on the top & bottom sides. Rambo has been a stellar heifer bull, calving like a dream. His sons are essentially carbon copies of their father, they are smooth made, have small heads, clean front ends & excellent confirmation. When you see his sons you’ll like them too.

Homo Polled & Homo Black. A direct son from the record setting $190,000 Captain Morgan bull. Glen & Kevin Maxwell had big time praise for these Morgan cattle, especially commenting on their docility. Western Star was our pick of their black bulls in 2015 & was their 2nd high seller. I couldn’t get over the length of this bull. He was a foot longer than any other bull around and weighed 1620 at 14 months. This goes Pictured September 2018 at 4 years of age back to the old adage: Length = pounds. Solid footed & light on his feet, Western Star has seen heavy service in our black program. When his calves were being born, Gerry felt they were the nicest, most uniform calves he would process at 2 days of age. They were sooo long & correct. Flash forward 13 months & these calves are very impressive yearlings. Be sure to check them out. They will add a lot to anyone’s program.

HOMO POLLED. The new red bull who’s caused quite a stir here. Alaska has been a fan favourite from everyone who’s toured the herdbull group. This soggy, hairy meat machine is always in good shape & poses perfectly every time he stops. With a temperament that’s second to none & the most perfect feet you will find, Alaska just seems to bring it all together. A very masculine, yet moderate made bull. He calves like a dream but once those calves hit the ground they just keep growing. Alaska is producing the real curve bender kind of cattle we all seek in this day of age. We honestly can’t say enough good things about him. A large amount of his daughters will sell this year however don’t expect the same volume next year since we will most likely be retaining all his daughters in 2020, that’s how much we think of this bull.

Without a doubt one of the most talked about bulls to sell in the spring of 2016. Charles was bred by the wonderful people at Lockhart Valley Simmentals, Rimbey, AB. Lee, Tina & Hanna Robson toured us around their farm & made sure to show us the dam of this great bull. After only a few minutes of viewing both “mother & son”, my wife Rachelle & I knew that we had to own Charles, there was no other alternative. We also knew there would be some very strong competition in doing so. When the dust settled, we managed to purchase him outright for a ground breaking $75,000! We felt we needed to add this powerful, perfectly made, genetically unique individual to our herdbull roster for our customers as we know too well that trying to find that ideal individual in the Fullblood business is a very, very tough job. In all honesty, I’ve never been so excited about a bull as the day we saw Charles & that feeling has continued every single day. His first calf crop was embraced by both Purebred and Commercial breeders with his sons averaging $10,616. The best thing we’ve ever done was use Charles in our program. We truly believe the best thing you can do is to use his sons.

Homo Polled, Homo Black. One of the feature ET bulls to lead off the Lewis Farms 2016 sale. Sired by the ever popular 3D Blk Full Throttle bull whose semen is no longer available, & mothered by the great 621Y donor cow that goes back to the Dark Knight bull, who’s seen huge success in the Lewis program. We felt Powershift really stuck out among his pen mates & has developed into a very impressive 3year old bull. With many requests from breeders to either purchase semen or acquire his walking rights Pictured September 2018 at 3 years of age outright after viewing him, we believe Powershift has a bright future ahead of him here at the ranch. His progeny are easy to spot, as they hold the same characteristics as him. Powershift is very right for the times, thick butted, deep ribbed with tons of capacity & super easy keeping ways will make him a popular choice for many.

Homo Polled. The high selling red bull from the well-respected Kuntz herd is also a maternal brother to the ever-popular calving ease Sheriff bull. We feel Patriot encompasses the similar calving ease traits of his well known brother but also adds a lot of length & growth to his calves all the while maintaining that moderate frame score with Pictured at 3 years of age, October 2018. good thickness. Patriot is a prime example of purchasing a good bull even though we were “bulled up” at the time. We really liked the structure of him as a yearling & when Dad (Richard) & I saw the cow family when touring the Kuntz herd we both felt we should add this bull to the battery on those merits as that kind of bull doesn’t come around every year.

We’re quite enthused about these Patriot sons selling, they are very uniform in type and most of them were raised by only second calvers.

We used Hemi only for our first cycle on select cows & the calves that were born really blew our expectations out of the water. Hemi 586C is a performance powerhouse for the Fullblood business, he puts that extra punch in his progeny & it shows quite easily when strolling through the bull & heifer pens. This will be the last Hemi progeny to sell since he did not recover from an injury.

Clipper caught our eye when touring the Maxwell bull pen in 2016 & was our pick of their Fullblood group. His beautiful rich color along with great length of body & smooth shoulders made him hard to pass up. What sealed the deal was viewing his dam, NUG Lace 830U. What an impressive mother cow, she’s the ideal type we strive to produce. With a lot of maternal power on the bottom pedigree with bulls like Harrach & Medallion, we felt Clipper would be a stellar addition to our herd. Clipper has a very docile disposition & calves very easily, also proving that he can produce both top bulls & females with his progeny being some of our sale features in both classes.

As our black program has grown over the years the need to add a black calving ease heifer bull to our roster also became apparent thus led us to the purchase of LFE 3173C (Direct Drive). This long bodied, mellow made, deep sided herdbull was the ideal candidate as he displayed great calving ease characteristics with his small head, smooth shoulders & clean lines. Born with a small birth weight to a fantastic young female we really liked his curve bending Pictured at 3 years of age, October 2018. abilities since he was one of the heavier long yearlings in the black offering at LFE that year. Direct Drive’s calving ease abilities did not disappoint, his calves come small and quick but get up & suck fast just the way we like it. Outcross pedigree to boot, we look forward to more of our bred heifers carrying Direct Drive’s service in the future.

This isn’t a fluke either, the 67X cow has a long & proven track record here at the farm with a number of daughters in production. Last year’s son was a blaze faced black who went into the strong herd of Cody & Ron Gawazuk.

Western Star crossed with the Icon 445Y cow just does it again. Honestly, I came very close to copy & pasting what I wrote about his two full brothers in the two previous year’s catalogs! This year’s son will no doubt be once again a feature bull in the black division. Loads of length, thickness & middle…there’s a reason why we keep doing this mating every year. Last year’s full brother sold for $12,500 to one of the top ranchers in Manitoba’s Interlake area, Randy Geisler. Beuligen Ranch of New Salem, ND purchased another full brother in 2017 for $9000. The value of a good bull is always shown in his calf crop, the good ones pay for themselves in the first year.

When we got to weaning time, it was quite evident why Dad was so keen on this brute. This is truly one heck of a bull, super thick made from head to tail, he’s got that Powershift stamp. Low set, deep sided with a ton of rib & shape makes this guy a great option for any progressive rancher. A full sister to 453F is in our bred heifer pen & she’s been a standout all along too.

Moderate in frame, this February born bull comes from a solid cow family with his grandmother raising some high sellers over the years.

One of the younger blacks in the offering mothered by a first calf Mandako female who was at the top of her group. We quite like this fella & feel he should develop into a very impressive herdsire with a great blend of calving ease & performance all in one. 129F displays a great deal of depth & middle along with that soggy look these Direct Drive sons seem to all have.

His EPDs tell us that he is in the top 3% for WW & 4% for YW, yet mothered by a first calf heifer.

One of our top picks in the pen, considering he’s out of a first calf heifer. This ripping good bull has the numbers & the looks in his corner. Large testicles, smooth made, easy keeping with lots of depth & thickness makes 383F an easy prospect for anyone wanting performance in their calf crop yet maintaining that built in calving ease. The dam was one of our top Fullblood replacements in 2017. Here’s a bull that’s very easy to recommend, be sure to look him up sale day. 383F is also a ¾ sib to lot 24.

Another really well put together Red Knight son, solid red, smooth made, thick butt end & moves like a cat. One has to really give credit to the mother of this bull for her first kick at the can. He’s the curve bender type that we are so high about. In fact, he reminds us a lot of his sire when we purchased him a few years back. 369F is a real bell ringer, the kind that can produce those thick, in demand steers & also the replacement females we all need to keep rolling. With a great family to boot & a ton of fertility, grandma & great grandmother, they just never miss.

Alaska is certainly doing things right. The dam of this bull is probably our biggest barreled cow on the place, in all truthfulness, she’s a tank. You really can’t tell the difference from when she calves as she just has so darn much capacity & rib. Lots of milk, perfect feet, she’s a heck of a cow. She’s put a son in the Ralph Bucholz herd in North Dakota along with a daughter at Plowboy Acres of Dauphin.

This fellow is the 4th son in a row to sell from our old 590 Paramount cow.

Since 2 days of age this bull just had a certain look to him, knowing full well he would turn into something special. His numbers are the real deal, low birth weight, high weaning weight. The dam is a real beauty of a young cow & also acts as a genetic outcross for a lot of red bloodlines.

HOMO POLLED. Check out this powerhouse red bull, he’s a real tank. Eye him up from any corner, he always looks like a real herdbull. If we had to pick one Express son to retain for our own herd, this would be the one. His colour is one thing, but his body shape is something else.

Large testicles, deep bodied & thick made, we just can’t say enough about this lad. His pedigree is also quite an outcross for most red programs, something other than off the shelf AI sires is always a big bonus. A full sister is in our bred heifer pen, where she really stands out from the pack. I had the privilege to purchase a full brother on behalf of Steve Hoffart of North Dakota in 2016 for $17,500. Steve told us a year later point blank “He’s the best bull I’ve ever owned, he’s exactly what I always wanted.” Powerful words coming from a reputable rancher south of the border. The dam of this bull is a highly esteemed cow here, with a flawless udder & conformation; her track record speaks for itself with her sons averaging $10,500.

We all know the value of easy calving, high gaining cattle & Express sons do just that. Just check out his birth weight & actual weaning weight, isn’t that what we all want in a herdsire. A full brother was selected by Smolinski Farms of Arborg for $6750. The year before another brother was a high seller to Belle Plaine Colony for $13,000. Progressive minded beef producers always know the value of good herdbulls.

Good top, wide quarters & a free moving individual, if you haven’t tried a Red Express son, it’s time to put one to work in your herd.

This is a feature that very few bull sales can offer but with our large selection of both bulls & females, it gives a huge advantage to you, the customer.

A bull that will deliver calving ease, just look at his head & smooth shoulders yet still have some strong maternal power. Longevity is bred in this guy as his great grandmother is still in production at 13 years of age & has a daughter selling in the sale as well in the black division. A maternal brother sold for $8000 in last year’s sale to the highly reputable Larkspur Ranch program in Eddystone.

Stout made, the kind of bull who could live on cat tail bales if he had to & still look good. This wide topped beef bull is a real doozey & should provide balanced calving ease & lots of gain to his calf crop.

We may be a little ways from breeding yet but adequate bull power is paramount to a timely calving schedule.

Never has there been a more crucial time in selecting the very best herdsires possible in order to put your program a step ahead of the pack to make your herd the most profitable it can be.

Bulls such as 503F are truly the key to that success. 503F is built like a D8 CAT. Thick butted with quarters that are nice & square, a beautiful hair coat & a top the width of a pool table, he will do well wherever his new home is. A full brother was quite popular in last year’s sale & was selected by the Vandehovens of Triple V Ranch, Carrington, ND. Sisters to this bull have sons selling in this sale as Lots 63 & 30.

Visitors in the bull pen have a pretty hard time deciding which Charles son is their favourite, however 48F seems to be at the top of everyone’s list. This hairy, stout made beef bull is very right for the times in his frame score. Full in the flank, large testicles, this goggle eyed herdsire is an easy recommendation to anyone looking to retain replacement females or raise top end cattle. Like all Charles cattle, 48F is very fluid in his movement & has a great temperament.

His young Smuggler dam is shaping into a hard working cow who gives it her all to her calf.

Check out this cherry red, blaze faced Charles son, you’d swear he belongs in the red pen with that paint job. His dam is colored the same way & has developed into a beautiful young cow who’s long as a freight train. The grandmother, 56S was a highly venerated cow in our program and had as many high sellers in her day as any other cow family. We’re quite high on this awesome Charles son, you can see why when evaluating him from head to toe. Super long bodied, thick made, lots of rib all in a well placed package. A full sister to 118F was one of our top Charles daughters & she sold as our high seller for $7000 to Crimson Creek Simmentals of Garland, MB. Dustin & Ashley have reported they are quite thrilled with how she looks and anxiously awaiting calving time.

The Charles sons seem to just set the bar so high with bulls like 85F. This bull is as good of a Charles son as we’ve produced to date & last year they averaged $11,375 on 14 sons. 85F has a great hair coat, is exceptionally long bodied, holds great depth of rib & large testicles. Thick butted, wide topped & smooth made. He’s the real deal. A full brother was selected by a very astute cattleman, Cory Mack of Pettibone, ND in last year’s sale. The dam of this bull is a front pasture kind of cow with excellent conformation, perfect feet, legs & udder. She’s truly one of our top Fullblood cows & has cranked out 5 bull calves in a row, many of them being sale features over the years. In all honesty we are hoping she lays down & gives us a heifer calf this winter as we have no daughters yet.

This Charles son will be a bull producer & a tremendous female maker, you can be certain of that.

In light of this bull being a March calf & won’t be a year of age by sale day, he’s held his own quite well with his pen mates considering the age difference. These Fullblood bulls are getting tougher to find all the time, however we’ve been breeding Simmentals since 1979 and our commitment to our customers will not falter. Bulls like 35F can be used in a multitude of ways, be it on red, black, tan or Fullblood based cows. We’d highly encourage you to retain his daughters, as they will shine. This bull is a great grandson of our famed 74D Meister cow who was a model cow in her day & many of our best cow families in all divisions can be traced to her.

If you want to add some hair & dimension to your calf crop, here’s a sure bet. We are certainly seeing a lot more producers using these powerful Fullbloods to get that milk back to where it needs to be, not to mention the extra weight at weaning time pays big dividends financially. A maternal sister was a high seller in 2016 for $6500 to Maxwell Simmentals, AB. A maternal brother sold last year to repeat customer, Brett Levandoski of Mountain Road. Brett & his dad, Bert have purchased 8 bulls from us in the last few years.

This Clipper son is no slouch of a bull, the more we study him, the more we like him all the time.

Exceptionally long bodied, smooth made, great color with no white socks & free moving makes this bull a strong candidate for anyone needing a Fullblood bull this spring. The Clipper calves are born easily since they are very long bodied & just slide out effortlessly. The mother of this bull is 12 years old & we’ve bred her black, red & Fullblood over the years, all with great success. She’s sent sons to work at Drakes Valleyview Farms, Miguel Phillipot, Gary Martin & Neil Bray’s respective herds.

Here’s a real fancy heifer we really like. Unfortunately we can’t keep them all therefore we are offering some of our top cut heifers, just like 157F. Deep bodied, easy keeping & very feminine, she’ll be one you want to add to your herd. These Powershift cattle are so right for the times & the positive feedback on them is overwhelming. The dam’s sire was the awesome Spring Creek Hot Shot bull we used for a few years & then sold to Korey Lylyk. Mark this heifer down, she’ll be a bargain this spring compared to if she was brought to a sale in the fall as a bred.

Quite possibly the only State of War heifer who will sell all spring. This fancy heifer came to us in dam from a female we purchased at Simmsational for $9000 from Erixon Simmentals. We were very undecided about offering her for sale however with our commitment to offering the top end, here she is. The State of War females who did sell last fall were extremely popular & well received, commanding some serious money. We feel that 172F will make a stellar cow & most likely pay herself off with her first calf.

Here’s a heifer whose mother I ranked very high as a bred heifer. As a second calver she’s looking good as well…which is something we can’t always say about all second calvers.

Multi generations red & polled, which most likely makes her homo polled too. The grandmother, 53A, raised a $9500 bull last year that was selected by Thousand Hill Simmentals, SK. We missed picturing this heifer and only realized it when we were making the catalog.

Long bodied, deep sided, thick made & very feminine. These Alaska daughters are sure turning some heads. Gary & Greg Momotiuk selected a sister in last year’s sale, she has developed into a powerful big broody heifer who’s at the top of the leader board in their bred heifer pen. Genetics run deep with 251F, she’s a beaut & should really be staying home.

Mothered by an Icon female who happens to be a direct daughter from the legendary SU Kameo 55K cow, here’s a heifer whose pedigree is jam packed with some elite maternal powerhouses.

This flashy blaze faced heifer just seems to catch a person’s eye. Brothers to this heifer are working at Randy & Shelly Schmitt, ND; Simeon Brubacher, ON; Marcel & Kenny Vandepoele, MB; Gabor Farms Ltd, MB.

Sweet sassy molassy, this heifer will be a day short of her first birthday by sale time. Can you believe that, since she stacks right up with the early January calves. I’ve been watching this heifer develop since weaning time & she’s impressed me every single day. Two sisters reside in Saskatchewan, one at Double G Farms of Meota & the other at Triangle 33 Simmentals, Earl Grey.

Patriot seems to have sired a few more sons than daughters last year therefore we don’t have quite as many of these fine females on offer this time around. The ones we do have are all the same, low set, soft made, long bodied & moderate in frame.

Crossed with the Trigger daughters makes for a really nice genetic combination.

He was purchased by Larkspur Ranch, Kelly & Lorraine being so accommodating; let us use him right at the start of breeding season on a few select heifers. He calved like a dream & his calves are really coming along nicely. Pick the blaze faced heifer with 18F or go for the solid red one with 28F, you can’t go wrong either way. The mother of these heifers was one of our top replacements & is also a full sister to Rendezvous 166C who sold for $16,500 to Riverbank Farms, Ray Cormier, a few years ago.

I wish we had a picture of this heifer’s dam. She is about as perfect looking of a cow that you can ask for. Udder is lovely with great milking abilities, feet are fantastic & she’s always posing, she’s the kind of cow you want to leave along the highway for the neighbours to notice.

A heifer that even my brother Gerry didn’t want to part with…which is somewhat unusual! Perhaps it’s because this heifer is out of his great Happy 704X cow who’s been a very productive & profitable mother cow in our herd with her sons averaging over $9000. Plus Charlene 505F being sired by the $75,000 Charles bull doesn’t hurt either. Phenotypically for a March born heifer, she stacks right up with the Jan babies & really stands out with her vibrant color scheme. It truly is difficult parting with a heifer of this calibre, knowing how she is designed to produce. On the same token, we feel that our herd is strong enough to allow us to sell one of the very best.

Woolly & broody come to mind every time I inspect this heifer. She should develop into a fair sized cow with Hemi on the top side. The dam of this heifer is one of the last remaining Kingbuster cows on the place & she’s 11 years old but still due to calve sometime in January. I had purchased the grandmother back in 2005 from the Stulberg dispersal where I had invested in some herd-building cows. Progeny from that good Kingbuster cow have went into these fine programs: Kruk Lylyk Livestock, Benito; Randy Bartel, Roblin; Keyra Johnson, Vogar; Mark Ferguson, Gladstone; & Gilles Parthenay, Ste. Rose.

A female who should grow out to be quite powerful with some size & capacity. She’s got lots of top & is very easy fleshing. She also ranks in the top 1% of the breed for WW, top 3% for YW & top 20% for Milk. These Fullblood females are so versatile, breed them anyway you’d like to suit your calving needs & just wait for the profits to roll in. A maternal sister was a real gem last year, she was selected by Tiffany Sobie to add to her good program south of Arborg.

Terms & Conditions TERMS - The terms of the sale are cash, cheque, Mastercard, Visa, and Interac payable at par at sale location. The right of property shall not pass until after settlement is made. Transcon Livestock Corp. reserves the right to require a certified cheque as settlement before releasing any sale cattle. Should any purchaser fail to settle for his purchase Transcon Livestock Corp. reserves full power to resell the animal to the best advantage either publicly or privately, without further notice. Any loss arising from such resale together with keep and all other expenses shall be payable by the defaulter. All settlements must be made with the clerks of the sale before any cattle will be released.

BID - Every animal consigned to the sale must be sold by auction. No private sales will be allowed except as otherwise provided for in the terms and conditions. No by-bidding will be permitted. Each animal will be sold to the highest bidder.

SALES TAXES – Applicable sales taxes will be charged on semen, embryos and trucking fees (if listed), respective to the home province of the buyer, not the seller.

DISPUTES - In cases of disputes, bidding will be reopened between the parties involved. If no further bid is made the buyer will be the person from whom the auctioneer accepted the last bid. The auctioneer’s decision in such matters will be final.

PURCHASER’S RISK - Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser as soon as sold. Animals will be cared for at the purchaser’s risk for a reasonable length of time.

INFORMATION SUPPLIED - The information contained in this catalog is believed to be true and accurate. However, the information has been supplied by the seller and neither Transcon Livestock Corp. or Jamesway Enterprises Ltd. assume any responsibility if the information supplied is not accurate.

CATTLE PICTURES - The images in this catalog are believed to be accurate representations of the individual animals. Transcon Livestock Corp. and Jamesway Enterprises Ltd. assume no responsibility if the images as received have been altered.

ANNOUNCEMENTS from the auction block will take precedence over the printed matter in the catalog.

Buyers are therefore cautioned to pay attention to any such announcements.

CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRY - A registration/recordation certificate issued by the applicable breed association and duly transferred will be furnished to the buyer of each animal after settlement has been made. It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine the acceptance of this certificate in any

other association.

SHIPPING - Assistance will be given in making shipment after the sale but no risk is assumed by the Sales Management or Seller. Expenses incurred are the responsibility of the purchaser. Purchasers are requested to furnish shipping instructions when making settlement.

EXCEPTION TO GUARANTEE - In cases where the animal is subjected to any hormonal or surgical reproduction techniques after the sale, the guarantee shall be null and void.

HEALTH - It is the buyer’s responsibility to determine health requirements for importing any animal into his province or state. Transcon Livestock Corp. assumes no responsibility for the health status of any animal in the sale.

ACCIDENTS - Although every precaution will be taken to protect the safety and comfort of buyers, neither the Sales Management, auctioneer, consignors. or Association assumes any responsibility in this matter and disclaims any liability legal or otherwise in the event of accident or loss of property.

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS - The above terms and conditions of the sale shall constitute a contract between the buyer and the seller and be equally binding to both. Resale of animals following purchase in this sale shall constitute a separate transaction and the rights and obligations of the two parties connected thereto are not covered by the terms and conditions of this sale.

TRANSCON LIVESTOCK CORP. IS AGENT ONLY - It is to be clearly understood that Transcon Livestock Corp. is only acting as a medium between buyer and seller and is not in any way responsible for any failure on the part of either party to live up to his obligations, neither does Transcon Livestock Corp. assume any financial obligations to collect or enforce collection of any monies between parties, and any legal action that may, in exceptional cases, be taken, must be between buyer and seller.
