Sire of lot 1 - 8. Riddler supports his numbers with equallyimpressive hard data on his progeny. Riddler’s calving easeand performance attributes are a rare combination that wecouldn’t pass up especially once we saw his high maternalcalving ease numbers. That look Riddler puts on his calvescombined with his DNA assets set up the making of a Sim-mental legend in this $170,000 super star.

With the pairing of Riddler and Lotto in his pedigree and his physical attributeswe seriously considered keeping this guy back for our own use. Rattler’s dam isa deep bodied very tanky Lotto 52Y daughter we purchased out of the BlackSand Dispersal. She’s the kind of femlae you expect to produce top end herdbulls. 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 breedfor YW as well as in the top 15% for CE. We feel very confident in saying he’sthe kind that will add strength, uniformity, and power to any breeding program.

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

Take a look at the balanced numbers that come with these three ¾ brothers,lots 2, 3, and 4. Nice on performance and well above breed average forcalving ease. Lot 3’s top 10% rating for BW takes a second seat to his 4%for MCE.

When looking at this Riddler keep in mind he may be homo polled and ho-mo black as we missed getting hair sent in on him. He’s got the length ofspine and natural muscle that gives these Riddlers the pounds. He comeswith good numbers too. Top 15% for CE, top 5% for BW, and top 5% forMCE. Four other sons of Lucy 372T have sold in our previous bull sales.

Lot 5 carries extra mass on a strong skeletal structure. He’sfull of red meat and comes equiped with the assets neces-sary to help you get more out of your cowherd. His perfor-mance 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 willbe her third standout son. Her two previous sons went tothe purebred operations at Northern Lights Simmental andR Plus.

Looking for meat, muscle and milk? Make sure this guy ison your list. He’s got the maternal backing of one of ourbest Blowout daughters. Her track record shows she canbring in bull calves that will make the grade. An El Tigreson went to Kline Simmental in North Dakota. Lot 6 isabove breed average for every trait except one. He offers agreat opportunity to better your program in a number oftraits through just one bull.

When I saw this guy up and sucking in less than 15 min-utes after he was born I knew with all that vigor he had tostay a bull. He has to be the longest spined bull I’ve everseen much less raised. Note he is a maternal brother toWLB Stockman 420B. Their dam, 3556X has the distinc-tion of being in the top 1% of the breed for milk and herudder is still very much intact. This freight train of a bull isin the top 2% of the breed for WW, YW and in the top 4%for MWWT.

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

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 inhis skeleton and muscle and that’s why he will be used at WLB. His massive rib, extradeep body, and full to the brim quarter are what champion bulls and carcass leaders aremade of. His stride is reaching and it sets down on a sure foot. The flex and looseness hehas 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 25Tmaking her a maternal sister to Springcreek Lotto 52Y. She is only a three year old andGo Daddy will be her second son to be used at WLB. Her first son WLB Salute 51Y368C 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 tobecoming a breed legend perhaps only to be out done by his sons.Selling full possession and half semen interest.

Round ribbed, square rump, attractive fronts and bigscrotals are prominent traits we have seen him pass on tohis sons and daughters. If you want to have a positive andmajor impact on your next calf crop from the use of just onebull, then we recommend an El Tigre son.

Lot 16 rivals lot 7 for his length of spine. His extra length ofbody will definitely provide added pay weight without muchnegative influence on his calving EASE. You’ll know what Imean when you see his ideally structured front end. He’s aperformance bull and a whole lot more. His EPD ratingshave him in the top 2% for WW, YW, and MWWT.

It’s hard to believe that a first calf heifer can produce something like lot18 with his 907 weaning wt and a 1608 pound yearling weight. We lovethe body mass on this Full Tank. He’s wide down his top, extra widethrough his rear quarter and full of barrel and middle. If you can producea pen of steer calves with his look, his dimensions and his pay weight youwill be the envy of the sale barn and smiling all the way to the bank.

If you’ve been thinking about a baldy you need to take a look at this 7/8 sonof Full Tank. He comes at you strong in his structure deep through his middlebody, and very complete in his quarter to complete the total package he hasto offer. His pedigree is chocked full of “Git R Done” type of cows. His damis a maternal sister to the lot 8 baldy bull.

Lot 19 is a maternal brother to WLB Bounty Hunter 365C who we own with Semex.We calved a bunch of Bounty Hunter calves out of first calvers and were very pleasedwith the results. His sire, Stockman was our $25,000 high seller in the 2015 sale goingto Harvie Ranching, AB. Stockman’s dam is a cow we think a lot of. Lot 19 offersplenty 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% forMCE.

Denali comes with a premium pedigree that has garnered as much notorietyand value as any purebred pedigree since the turn of the century. We saw De-nali’s full sister in production at Ranciers and was very impressed with thematernal statement she made. Denali offers a great opportunity to instill thatsame strong maternal influence, genetic greatness, and excitement in yourprogram. He’s very balanced in his numbers and full of natural thickness andeye appeal. He has that Captain Morgan appeal and the Flirt cow family andall the excitement and real life goodness that comes with them.

Lots 21 and 22 are very similar in their genetics being sired by thesame sire and each having one of our L205 flush sisters on theirbottom side. Both should get your undivided attention if you are insearch of a first class heifer bull/cow maker. The big bonus onthese two isn’t just in the calving ease but also in the maternallygifted daughters they can add to your cow herd. 3554W is in thetop 1% of the breed for Calving Ease, top 3% for MWWT and thetop 4% for Milk.

This guy has always been an attractive one. His maturity ischanging his youthful attractiveness into a very appealing herdbull prospect. If you are in need of an extra good heifer bullyou had better take a serious look here. His numbers are closeto ideal. His structure is fault free. His presentation is second tonone and he doesn't let up when it comes to thickness and sub-stance. Combine all that with his excellent Calving Ease cre-dentials and you have a pretty good candidate to fill your bullneeds. Did I mention that he’s also homo black and homopolled?

His maternal grandmother was in her prime when we boughther out of a commercial cow sale in 2002. She calved here foranother 13 years after that. She got pretty long in the tooth be-fore we retired her but her dedicated call to duty is what con-vinced us we should keep one of her daughters. Lot 23 is oneof three 359A sons we are offering. He has the same cleanfronted flat shouldered structure that you will see in his twohalf brothers, lots 21 & 22. He also gives you one more candi-date to consider for your heifer pen.

Just on type alone he’s a pretty interesting bull. His full rib andbig barrel is the kind that we want every calf to grow into atWLB. The opportunity this guy provides gets more excitingwhen you see his numbers. They are above breed averagestraight across the board. This also includes his carcass num-bers. He doesn’t fall below 30% on any of his front line traitsand rates a special 1% on MCE. Then he stays up in the top40% on his carcass numbers. He also has the distinction of be-ing the only Simmental bull with socks in this sale.

We think of this guy as one of the really good cow makerbulls in this offering. His Connor Beech dam gave us plen-ty of good ones in the 10 years she worked for us. Thisdeep made beef bull is nicely skulled , big ribbed, andstrong in his structure. His performance numbers have himin the top 3% of the breed for WW and YW. His milknumbers have him in the top 30%.

I can’t believe I missed getting DNA on this dark red son ofour Baronson 254Z bull. His type will be liked by those thatsee him on sale day. His dam is so typical of the good cowsthat 47Y grow to be. His numbers are superb with all of hisfront line traits being in the top 10% or better except for WWand YW which are in the top 30% and 25% respectively. Takenote of his birth date, birth weight, and yearling weight. Thenremember this late March herd bull may be homo polled!

Sire of lots 24 - 28. Owned with Randy Geisler, Lundar, MB. Koppas we call him is predominantly a maternal influence bull that con-tributes a nice set of numbers to his progeny. His daughters give ourblack program something to build off of as they make very attentivemothers with a mild attitude. There are a number of his sons in thissale that can certainly provide a similar benefit to their new owner.

This was the other guy that I failed to get DNA for polled. Hetypes pretty consistent with his 3/4 brothers showing plenty ofrib and heart capacity as well as possessing a smooth flat shoul-der and a deep flank. Again take a look at his front line EPDsand you will find him to be in the top 10% of the breed for fivetraits and above breed average for everything but one.

This blaze faced herd bull is a ¾ brother to lots 26 and 27.254Z on top of Sunny daughters make for very consistentproduction and very balanced numbers. This guy is blessedwith very good performance numbers which have him inthe top 4% & 2% of the breed for WW and YW and 3%for MCE.

We are very pleased with the results we get when wecalve our Tradmark daughters to Sunny. Lot 29, 30 &31 are examples of that mating and we do like theconsistency we get in that cross. Enough so that wedid it again this calving season and are pleased tohave three heifer calves to put into our replacementpen.

Take a look at the birth weights on these three ¾brothers. When you combine that with the smoothnessof profile all three have you have three good candi-dates for your yearling heifers.

One of my favorite red bulls is this deep flanked herdbull. He easily catches your eye with his deep profile,proud carriage, and healthy hair coat.

Sire of Lots 29 - 36. Sunny “walks the talk”. His progenyare everything his numbers say he is. His daughters maketop notch brood cows. His sons are easy born, easy flesh-ing, and easy feeding. Sunny is the backbone of our redprogram.

SUNNY VALLEY FORCE 47Y

His dam is one of our dependables. She leaves little doubtas to her abilities in raising herd bulls. This guy isn’t oneto just lay around. He’s probably the most active bull inthe pen always out on the prowl. His fluid movement,combined with his depth, thickness, hair coat, and disposi-tion are going to gain him quite a few admirers come saleday. Note he is homo polled.

This deep flanked Sunny will catch your eye for how he ismade and the hair coat that covers him. His Red Quarumdam is a good attentive mother and a maternal sister to thedam of lot 31 bull. He also comes with a nice balanced setof numbers.

His carriage and presentation along with his dark redcolour will get him plenty of admirers. His dam is verytypical of the full of milk and nicely uddered Goosedaughters we have working for us. His dam, Gloria 374Yis a maternal brother to lot 2 bull.

If you keep any daughters off of lot 35 you are going to bepleased with the milk supply they have and the attentivemothers they make. This deep bodied bull is soft inappearance and full of rib and natural muscle.

You are going to find a similar stamp and carrying condi-tion on these Sunnys. We love the attentive motheringapproach his dam gives to her calves and she does it forthe duration of her nursing period.

We ran this El Tigre son in a 300 acre rent pasture in theBrandon Hills south of town. He dealt with rocky creekcrossings, sloughs and stoney hills. We were impressedwith his ability to cover his cows and maintain his con-dition. His Blowout dam has been one of our dependablematrons always bringing in a good one. She gave us aRiddler heifer calf last year that will definitely be stay-ing at WLB. Lot 41 will have calves on the ground bysale day.

This guy sold last spring but got banged up before he gotpicked up. He’s good to go now. His Accelerator damwas a good buy from Kevin and Glen Maxwell and isbeginning to make her presence known at WLB. Takeadvantage of this second chance opportunity and get awell bred homo polled, blaze faced bull working on yourcows.

We decided to hang on to this guy last year as at the timeit looked like we were going to need to make use ofsome small creek pastures which would call for runningmore bulls. He’s pretty complete in his make up andtraces back to the Preston Braveheart cow which pro-duced a lot of good ones for us. Two of her Tradmarksons sell in this sell as lots 37 & 38.

Cow calf producers be sure to give this beef machine a good look.He’s loaded with hair and deep with substance. He’s bred to pro-duce replacement females and good baldy steer calves. He has theUna 5Y cow right up front in his pedigree. That’s a good thing!

His 12 year old dam gave lots of years of production. Twoof Shell River’s best cows are in his pedigree, Nickie 17Cand Nichole 10K.

Need more depth in your calves and cows. Then you need to have a lookat this red eyed Tonka son. He may well be the deepest bodied Herefordbull ever produced at WLB. He has the Blanche 127J cow on his bottomside. She’s the queen of deep. It will be very interesting to see the udderson his daughters once they get in production as both Sweet Pea 20W andBlanche 127J were two of our best uddered Hereford cows. Deep squareudders with small teats and full of milk all the way to weaning.

Loaded with muscle, performance, great haired and an idealshaped head. His dam is correctly uddered, sound structured,deep ribbed and loaded with milk. Dutch is also fully pigmentedand short marked.as well.

Big ribbed, big middle, big butted in a moderate frame. Dam is ahighly attractive ideal uddered female. Dallas is also fully pig-mented and short marked. His sire is a materenal brother to lot 54.

I can’t even remember when it was thatwe first met George Webster, foundingowner of Winchester Cattle Company.Our acquaintance soon grew into astrong friendship that has meant a lot toNancy and myself. George is wellversed on Hereford pedigrees and cowfamilies. Especially those at WLB.George became very good at identify-ing our top cows and plucking out theirbest daughters.(eg. Powerball’s damand Anser’s dam). We are very pleasedto have Winchester Cattle Co. remain apart of this WLB event. WCC cattle arenow kept with Bryan Fossay, FossayBeef Farm, Woodlands, MB.Pictured is the Winchester crew.L to R: Charlie Webster, Ed Lavalle,Tim Nelson, and George Webster.

His two year old dam did a pretty good job on her first calf. This red eyedherd bull prospect is pretty good in his skeletal structure and very nice inhis muscle make up. A paternal brother was a high seller in last years Goodas Gold Sale. His dam is a maternal sister to my lot 63 bull.

Another red-eyed son of 47Z out of a milky Vol-ume IV daughter. Take note of his 76 lb. Birthweight. That combined with his profile suggestshe could be a candidate for your heifer pen.

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

I have strived to be diligent about the udders we have onour cows. I feel we have found some bulls over the yearsthat have done udders up right for me. The 47Z bull maybe the best bull for udders yet. He works really well onmy Volume IV daughters. His dam, 218X, can be seenon our website. www.dougtroopherefordfarm.com
