WE LCOME from Diamond R Well, it has been a long time a-coming. We have been working at this for 31 years together. This has been a goal, to provide some great commercial bred females for you to appraise! To introduce ourselves, we are Diamond R Stock Farms – Brad, Jayne and our kids, Larissa and Cade Rutten. It all started in 1992 and there has been lots of bumps along the road, but today, we stand here pretty proud of what we have accomplished out in the pens. Brad is a 2nd generation Charolais breeder, Jayne is a 4th generation Black Angus breeder, Larissa is a 5th generation Angus breeder with a love for all cattle. Larissa’s WKL prefix is very evident here in the bull portion. Cade… well he is Mr. Fix It! Cade’s love isn’t the cows, but the equipment he fixes sure helps a lot on the farm. We would like to congratulate all fellow producers; we have been waiting for these higher prices for a long time. The cull market has never been higher, and it may be the time to cash in those older females and herdbulls that look at you funny. Come in December for the sale, before life gets hectic with calving, long chores and the rush before seeding. Onto the offering. We are asking our past bull customers to consider coming a bit earlier to see the bull pen. The bulls on offer, whether they be the two-year olds or yearlings, are the same standard as they have always been. The two-year olds are exceptional and the coming yearlings are of the same copy. No matter the breed, we have worked on bringing consistency and a “type” of what we would like to see in a bull. We hope you see it too. We have always joked that we truly are the “Walmart” of the bull pens! The females are a testament of what we have been working for! We have always strived for consistency in frame size, colour and udder quality. Calving ease is super important here! As you may notice, the heifers all bear an RFID tag with either a green back or a blue back. We hope this is a help to you, so you know that they are either Angus sired or Simmental sired. No genetic surprises here! The bulls they are exposed to have been through the test last year and passed with flying colors. All heifers offered with the exception of three were bred, born and raised here. Please accept this as your invitation to join us on December 18th, 2:00 p.m. at the Wawota Drop In Center for a video sale. We have had a change in venue as things didn’t quite work out as planned. We also will be having an Open House for the two days prior to the sale to view all lots. Of course, you are invited to come to the farm to view the offering when it suits your scheduling. So, come have a look see at the farm of the offering and then head on into town to the Drop In Center. We will have a warm meal and some holiday cheer on sale day. If you are unable to attend in person on sale day, the sale will be broadcast on DLMS! Please don’t hesitate to call anyone of our sale staff. They are all very knowledgeable and have seen the offering, and quite happy to answer any questions you may have or discuss the offering with you.

We hope t o see you there, The Ruttens

Diamond R Select Bull & Female Sale


WE LCOME from Wright Livestock

Marketing

Welcome to Diamond R Stock Farm’s 1st Annual Select Bull & Female Sale. Although it may be the first annual sale, the Rutten family is no stranger to the industry and marketing their bulls and females. They have successfully, year after year, marketed and sold their bulls private treaty off the farm and consigned females to select sales all over Western Canada. They have built a customer base, with many being repeat customers, who can attest to the quality of the Diamond R program. This year, Brad and Jayne made the decision to move to a new sale format, a video sale, where the bulls and select Commercial bred heifers will be sold on the same day. Change is inevitable as programs progress forward, and the advantage of having their offering on one sale day appealed to them as their kids are growing up and leaving the nest, and roles and workloads change on the farm. The thing that you can guarantee that hasn’t changed is the quality of the offering. It may be a December sale, but the caliber of the quality of the offering has not changed. There are truly “Females that you can build on, Bulls you can bank on!” In the bull sale portion of the sale, you will find bulls representing three breeds that will cater to whatever you are looking for to add to your bull battery. The Charolais to add those performance and pounds to give you those very marketable Charcross calves, to the Simmentals that will give you performance with a high level of maternal focus, or the Angus that will give you that calving ease and those herd building daughters, this sale has it all. The Commercial bred heifers in the sale will sell in consistently assembled packages of 2 or 3 and are the elite end females of the Diamond R commercial program. None of their commercial bred heifers have been retained! Many of these females are sired by their purebred herd bull battery and bred back to purebred calving ease bulls. Whether you are new to the cattle industry or a seasoned veteran, these bulls and females would add value to anyone’s bottom line. Please take the opportunity to study the catalogue, and if you have any questions about the offering, please do not hesitate to contact Brad, Jayne or any of the sales staff listed. Brad and Jayne are understanding of the need to see the offering firsthand, so they have invited producers to go through the offering prior to the sale, at the open house. If the open house doesn’t work with your scheduling, they are more then happy to show you the offering when it works for you. Please join us on sale day, whether in person or through the online broadcast through DLMS. We would love to see you there. If you are unable to make it, we would be happy to assist you with any sight unseen purchases.

Take care,

Jon & Sarah Wright Wright Livestock Marketing Ph: (306)807-8424

Reference Sires Gomez has been a welcome addition to the bull battery here at Diamond R. Together with Dusty Rose Cattle, we purchased some embryos at New Year’s Resolution. Being a Natural Law out of the famous Werner Black Angel cow was exciting. In watching the calf over the summer, we knew he was a piece that we could utilize heavily. He sires beautifully designed females and his bulls are pretty alright too. Performance is his name of the game. He was well received in the fall of 2019, being slapped the Senior Bull Calf Champion at Brandon Ag Ex. He was popular at Agribition in the Bull Pen Alley as well. Gomez has been used in our purebred herd and the kids have used him on their commercial females with great success. Contact us for available semen! Co-owned with Early Sunset Ranch and Tiny Angus Ranch

WKJ Dusty’s Gomez 4G ZSL Tillman was the high selling bull at Spring Lake Bull Sale. We acquired the shared walking rights, and he has done an exceptional job. We love the foot on this bull, and he is pretty easy to be around. We have bred him to our papered cows and also a handful of commercial cows. Those Tillman steers were well received at the Auction Mart. Look at his bulls, but also take a look in the bred heifers, because there is a handful of commercial bred heifers sired by him as well. If we didn’t have more calves on the way sired by Tillman, those heifers would be offered today! We had the pleasure of seeing his mother this spring and what a powerful cow she is. She looks exactly what we are striving for.

ZSL Mr Tillman 127H HVA Delco 2622J was purchased for his Duty-Free pedigree that was the complete phenotype. Delco was the high seller that day at Palmer’s Bull Sale. He calves easy the calves have lots of grow and great hair. We look forward to incorporating his daughters into the herd.

The cow family that started it all. In 2015 I was lucky enough to be drawn for a $3,000 heifer voucher to be put towards the purchase of an angus female at CJA Showdown in Olds, Alberta. I had fallen in love with a bred heifer of my grandparents, Bob & Margaret Easton of Kenosee Park Angus. Kenosee Park Lassie 2B has been an amazing little cow. She consistently produces for me. Her females are becoming the majority of my small herd, along with her bull calves selling top of the pen. Lariat is one I am tremendously proud of. He is smaller in frame size but makes up for it in length and thickness. He’s a tank!

I purchased his dam from KCH Cattle Co. in the Keystone Sale in 2022. She did an exceptional job of him. He comes with an outstanding pedigree, including some of the breed’s most renowned sires such as Firebrand, Angus Valley, Triumph, and Banknote. Heifer recommended.

Locomotive 57L is our lone Red Angus bull this year. His sire’s influence in our herd is unprecedented. If you want easy calving and the bonus of excellent females, take a long look here. His dam is sired by another home raised bull that was noticed a few years back at the Sask Angus Tour at the age of 7 years, showing perfect feet, quiet temperament and eye appeal. Heifer recommended.

WKJ Logic 7L came to us in dam via the Spring Creek Dispersal. He has a bit extra frame and is super long. This No Doubt son was our heavy weight this fall.

Red DKF Racer 39H aka GITCH

WKJ Jeter 4J

Red DKF Racer 39H a.k.a. GITCH, was purchased after attending a Saskatchewan Angus Tour in the summer of 2019. We were so impressed that day with the display at DKF Angus that we knew our next heifer bull was coming from there. This bull is as phenotypically correct as you can make them. A bonus was to see Final Answer in the pedigree, making his females the keeper kind! He is very easy to work with which is a must here. He calved out heifers very successfully the last 2 calving seasons and the best part is, they grow!

WKJ Jeter 4J was an in-dam purchase from Edwards Angus. He boasts a 74 lb birth weight, but man, did he grow! He is a son of the popular Musgravee 316 Colossal 137. His dam, 392G, has hit it out of the park every year so far. Her udder is fabulous!! Just take a look at the Jeter calves on offer in the bull section of the catalogue. We think a lot of this bull. He bred all of our purebred Black Angus keeper heifers and ran with a few commercials before being mixed with the bigger group of heifers. He is co-owned with Leaning Spruce Stock Farms.

Bred Heifer Information We are very proud of this set of bred heifers we have on offer. We take a lot of time and effort in selection of herd sires. We truly try to select for high maternal traits no matter the breed. As we don’t use A.I. a whole bunch, when we purchase a bull, he gets used and if his daughters meet our criteria… he gets used a lot! These females are a representation of our commercial herd base. We believe in hybrid vigour and we believe in the Sim/Angus cow, she has paid a lot of bill here. Our belief is the red cow is the most flexible cow out there. You can breed her Red, Black or White and get a calf that is marketable. The bred heifers on offer are easy keeping and have been grown out and developed responsibly for longevity and productivity. *Bulls exposed starting April 23, 2023 *Preg checked by Head for the Hills Vet Services – September 27th, 2023
