4 BW LFE GOTHAM 819Y LFE BS CHARO 23Y SPRINGCREEK LOTTO 52Y HAAS RANCH S83 With the pairing of Riddler and Lotto in his pedigree and his physical attributes we seriously considered keeping this guy back for our own use. Rattler s dam is a deep bodied very tanky Lotto 52Y daughter we purchased out of the Black Sand Dispersal. She s the kind of femlae you expect to produce top end herd bulls. Rattler s pieces fit together to make a smooth shouldered, smooth sided, strong topped individual. We like the fact that he is in the top 10% of the breed for YW as well as in the top 15% for CE. We feel very confident in saying he s the kind that will add strength, uniformity, and power to any breeding program. WLB 369D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Homo Black LFE THE DARK NIGHT 350U LFE BEST LADY 47W TNT TANKER U263 LFE CHARO 3N Sire of lot 1-8. Riddler supports his numbers with equally impressive hard data on his progeny. Riddler s calving ease and performance attributes are a rare combination that we couldn t pass up especially once we saw his high maternal calving ease numbers. That look Riddler puts on his calves combined with his DNA assets set up the making of a Simmental legend in this $170,000 super star. 4

5 He s been very consistent in his development. We like him now every bit as much as we did at a month of age. That s no surprise as his dam has been very reliable in her ability to raise top end bull calves and bring them home in the fall in superb condition. Sons have sold to Les Jacks, Arnold Ste. Marie, Tom & Pat Dooley, and John Grant. His numbers put him in the top 10% for WW and MCE. He s deserves serious consideration as there s a lot more that comes with this Riddler than just his good looks. His dam traces back to the mother of Muirhead s Bill bull.

He s got the length of spine and natural muscle that gives these Riddlers the pounds. He comes with good numbers too. Top 15% for CE, top 5% for BW, and top 5% for MCE. Four other sons of Lucy 372T have sold in our previous bull sales. WLB 387D CE B W Y M MCE

6 LFE GOTHAM 819Y LFE BS CHARO 23Y WLB BLOWOUT 366R 381T WLB 462P LUCY 366T Lot 5 carries extra mass on a strong skeletal structure. He s full of red meat and comes equiped with the assets necessary to help you get more out of your cowherd. His performance numbers for WW and YW have him in the top 10% of the breed. His MCE numbers put him in the top 15%. We ve grown to expect good things out of 385Y. This will be her third standout son. Her two previous sons went to the purebred operations at Northern Lights Simmental and R Plus. WLB 434D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Homo Black LFE GOTHAM 819Y LFE BS CHARO 23Y WLB BLOWOUT 366R 381T WINDMILL MS DOMINO 75R Looking for meat, muscle and milk? Make sure this guy is on your list. He s got the maternal backing of one of our best Blowout daughters. Her track record shows she can bring in bull calves that will make the grade. An El Tigre son went to Kline Simmental in North Dakota. Lot 6 is above breed average for every trait except one. He offers a great opportunity to better your program in a number of traits through just one bull.

He has to be the longest spined bull I ve ever seen much less raised. Note he is a maternal brother to WLB Stockman 420B. Their dam, 3556X has the distinction of being in the top 1% of the breed for milk and her udder is still very much intact. This freight train of a bull is in the top 2% of the breed for WW, YW and in the top 4% for MWWT. WLB 420D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Hetero Black 6

7 We ve long admired the job that the 39S cow does on her calves. This goggle eyed Riddler son is a good example of her good work ethic. Just think of being able to sell a pot load of calves with his look and his pounds. Lot 9 certainly has his ducks in a row. No matter whether you looking for a good set of numbers are just a darn good bull you will find both in this attractive, stout made, light birth weight Riddler son.

8 WHEATLAND PREDATOR 922W MRL MISS 836W HARVIE JDF WALLBANGER111X SPRINGCREEK BLK TESS 25T There isn t a lot I would want to change about Go Daddy. He let it be known early in life, what he stood for and hasn t strayed from those statements. Go Daddy is very complete in his skeleton and muscle and that s why he will be used at WLB. His massive rib, extra deep body, and full to the brim quarter are what champion bulls and carcass leaders are made of. His stride is reaching and it sets down on a sure foot. The flex and looseness he has in his joints while still expressing a big bulging stifle is nothing but Cool. There s more icing for his cake too. His dam is a daughter of Springcreek Blk Tess 25T making her a maternal sister to Springcreek Lotto 52Y. She is only a three year old and Go Daddy will be her second son to be used at WLB. Her first son WLB Salute 51Y 368C ran with our yearling heifers last year and will find use here again. Go Daddy s $61,000 dollar sire, MRL El Tigre 52Z, needs no introduction as he is well on his way to becoming a breed legend perhaps only to be out done by his sons. Selling full possession and half semen interest. WLB 368D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Hetero Black WHEATLAND BULL 680S WHEATLAND LADY 752 T MRL BLACK BEAR 79S MRL MISS 828S Sire of lots This is our third calf crop of El Tigres. He has proven to put a very desireable stamp on his progeny. Round ribbed, square rump, attractive fronts and big scrotals are prominent traits we have seen him pass on to his sons and daughters. If you want to have a positive and major impact on your next calf crop from the use of just one bull, then we recommend an El Tigre son. 8

9 WLB 4161D BPTG Homo Hetero Black All three of these flush brothers possess the same pedigree topped up by one of the most consistent breeding black Simmental bulls in the breed, MRL El Tigre 52Z. Their maternal contribution comes from one of our six daughters of the L205 cow. 3552W is a plus in any pedigree being rated in the top 1% of the breed for MWWT, top 2% for Milk, top 3% for WW & YW and the top 10% for MCE. You can build a herd with any one of her sons. - A real attention getter! No matter if he s standing still or on the prowl, Big Northern has the presentation that makes you look at him again and again. He s got the dimension, hair, muscle, and the freedom of movement demanded by both the commercial and purebred sectors of our beef industry. Farm use semen will be retained on lot 11. EPDs & Pedigree for lots 11, 12, 13 WHEATLAND PREDATOR 922W MRL MISS 836W is very deserving of your time. Look at him from all angles. He won t disappoint you with his wide base, thick quarter, and big hip. IPU BLACK LABEL 156S DCR MS 299 DEST L205 possesses a balance of body that looks good on any bull.

His mother does. Check it out! She s in the top 1% of the breed with a whopping 44.7 milk EPD. That s why lot 15 isn t the first top end performance herd bull produced by 3551W. Other sons have sold to Stougton Farms, AB, Len Bergen, MB, and Glen Aldentaler, SD. Build a cow herd or build a bull pen or both with this guy!

His extra length of body will definitely provide added pay weight without much negative influence on his calving EASE. You ll know what I mean when you see his ideally structured front end. He s a performance bull and a whole lot more. His EPD ratings have him in the top 2% for WW, YW, and MWWT. His milk numbers put him in the top 30% of the breed. His dam, a daughter of L205 is in the top 1% in four EPD traits. WLB 419D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Homo Black 10

11 If you ve been thinking about a baldy you need to take a look at this 7/8 son of Full Tank. He comes at you strong in his structure deep through his middle body, and very complete in his quarter to complete the total package he has to offer. His pedigree is chocked full of Git R Done type of cows. His dam is a maternal sister to the lot 8 baldy bull. WHEATLAND HIGH OCTANE 169Y WHEATLAND LADY 813U HART GOOD TIME W223 WLB 462P LUCY 39S WLB 453D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Hetero Black 7/8 It s hard to believe that a first calf heifer can produce something like lot 18 with his 907 weaning wt and a 1608 pound yearling weight. We love the body mass on this Full Tank. He s wide down his top, extra wide through his rear quarter and full of barrel and middle. If you can produce a pen of steer calves with his look, his dimensions and his pay weight you will be the envy of the sale barn and smiling all the way to the bank.

We calved a bunch of Bounty Hunter calves out of first calvers and were very pleased with the results. His sire, Stockman was our $25,000 high seller in the 2015 sale going to Harvie Ranching, AB. Stockman s dam is a cow we think a lot of. Lot 19 offers plenty of reliability along with a pedigree that is a little different to a lot of programs. He finds himself in the top 15% of the breed for WW, top 20% for YW, and top 4% for MCE. WLB 365D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Hetero Black HARVIE JDF WALLBANGER111X SUNNYVALLEY BLK JENNA 88U WHEATLAND STOUT 930W RF FLIRTIN FOR CERTIN 37U Denali comes with a premium pedigree that has garnered as much notoriety and value as any purebred pedigree since the turn of the century. We saw Denali s full sister in production at Ranciers and was very impressed with the maternal statement she made. Denali offers a great opportunity to instill that same strong maternal influence, genetic greatness, and excitement in your program. He s very balanced in his numbers and full of natural thickness and eye appeal. He has that Captain Morgan appeal and the Flirt cow family and all the excitement and real life goodness that comes with them. WLB 203D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Hetero Black 12

13 HART GOOD TIME W223 NAC 99U IPU BLACK LABEL 156S DCR MS 299 DEST L205 Lots 21 and 22 are very similar in their genetics being sired by the same sire and each having one of our L205 flush sisters on their bottom side. Both should get your undivided attention if you are in search of a first class heifer bull/cow maker. The big bonus on these two isn t just in the calving ease but also in the maternally gifted daughters they can add to your cow herd. 3554W is in the top 1% of the breed for Calving Ease, top 3% for MWWT and the top 4% for Milk. WLB 418D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Homo Black HART GOOD TIME W223 NAC 99U HART GOOD TIME W223 WLB 156S BELLE 3557X This guy has always been an attractive one. His maturity is changing his youthful attractiveness into a very appealing herd bull prospect. If you are in need of an extra good heifer bull you had better take a serious look here. His numbers are close to ideal. His structure is fault free. His presentation is second to none and he doesn't let up when it comes to thickness and substance. Combine all that with his excellent Calving Ease credentials and you have a pretty good candidate to fill your bull needs. Did I mention that he s also homo black and homo polled? WLB 455D CE B W Y M MCE Homo Homo Black HART GOOD TIME W223 NAC 99U BLACK PB SIMMENTAL ANGUS His maternal grandmother was in her prime when we bought her out of a commercial cow sale in She calved here for another 13 years after that. She got pretty long in the tooth before we retired her but her dedicated call to duty is what convinced us we should keep one of her daughters. Lot 23 is one of three 359A sons we are offering. He has the same clean fronted flat shouldered structure that you will see in his two half brothers, lots 21 & 22. He also gives you one more candidate to consider for your heifer pen.

14 BLACK BARON KOP MS KNIGHT 112R WHEATLAND BULL 462P WLB 156S BELLE 3557X Just on type alone he s a pretty interesting bull. His full rib and big barrel is the kind that we want every calf to grow into at WLB. The opportunity this guy provides gets more exciting when you see his numbers. They are above breed average straight across the board. This also includes his carcass numbers. He doesn t fall below 30% on any of his front line traits and rates a special 1% on MCE. Then he stays up in the top 40% on his carcass numbers. He also has the distinction of being the only Simmental bull with socks in this sale.

His Connor Beech dam gave us plenty of good ones in the 10 years she worked for us. This deep made beef bull is nicely skulled, big ribbed, and strong in his structure. His performance numbers have him in the top 3% of the breed for WW and YW. His milk numbers have him in the top 30%. WLB 371D CE B W Y M MCE Hetero BLACK BARON KOP MS KNIGHT 112R SUNNY VALLEY FORCE 47Y MJ BLACK ELLIE MAY 30R I can t believe I missed getting DNA on this dark red son of our Baronson 254Z bull. His type will be liked by those that see him on sale day. His dam is so typical of the good cows that 47Y grow to be. His numbers are superb with all of his front line traits being in the top 10% or better except for WW and YW which are in the top 30% and 25% respectively. Take note of his birth date, birth weight, and yearling weight. Then remember this late March herd bull may be homo polled! WLB 456D CE B W Y M MCE

15 BLACK BARON KOP MS KNIGHT 112R SUNNY VALLEY FORCE 47Y WLB 388W GLORIA 372Z This was the other guy that I failed to get DNA for polled.

Again take a look at his front line EPDs and you will find him to be in the top 10% of the breed for five traits and above breed average for everything but one.

He dealt with rocky creek crossings, sloughs and stoney hills. We were impressed with his ability to cover his cows and maintain his condition.

23 I can t even remember when it was that we first met George Webster, founding owner of Winchester Cattle Company. Our acquaintance soon grew into a strong friendship that has meant a lot to Nancy and myself. George is well versed on Hereford pedigrees and cow families. Especially those at WLB. George became very good at identifying our top cows and plucking out their best daughters.(eg. Powerball s dam and Anser s dam). We are very pleased to have Winchester Cattle Co. remain a part of this WLB event. WCC cattle are now kept with Bryan Fossay, Fossay Beef Farm, Woodlands, MB. Pictured is the Winchester crew. L to R: Charlie Webster, Ed Lavalle, Tim Nelson, and George Webster. Need more depth in your calves and cows. Then you need to have a look at this red eyed Tonka son. He may well be the deepest bodied Hereford bull ever produced at WLB. He has the Blanche 127J cow on his bottom side. She s the queen of deep. It will be very interesting to see the udders on his daughters once they get in production as both Sweet Pea 20W and Blanche 127J were two of our best uddered Hereford cows. Deep square udders with small teats and full of milk all the way to weaning.

24 Doug Troop purchased his first purebred Hereford when he was 14 from RJ Kerr in Portage. He has held a life membership in the Canadian Hereford Association ever since. That was 48 years ago. Doug and Jayne now run a 200 head cow herd offering purebred Hereford bulls as well as F1 baldy females. I have had the privilege of walking through Doug s cowherd and it is very evident that he is a stickler on milk, square udders, good feet, and strong cow-families. We are pleased to have Doug join us for this bull sale and look forward to what his solid reputation and strong breeding program will bring to this event.
