It is an honor to be a part of the sale with a great group of consignors and friends that continue to strive to bring a quality set of bulls for your appraisal year after year. We would like to thank all of our past bidders and buyers for their continued support of our program and welcome your inquiries on this year’s offering. I would also like to give a special thank you to all of those that have helped us out over the past year; we could not do this without your support. Once again this year we partnered with our good friends Chad and Stacey Meunier (CRM Simmentals) to merchandise their bulls. Also this year we have added bulls from another very close friend Mike McCart of Alliance Simmentals. Our partnership with Mike started a couple of years ago when he purchased a very popular female from us “Special”. This female was flushed with Mike on shares over a couple of years and two of the Fullblood bulls on offer are grandsons of this great female. We also added 2 more ET calves from Mike’s red and black program. Due to our limited cow numbers this allows us to offer more options to our great clientele of bull buyers with more genetic diversification and selection. The Simmental bulls on offer have been managed together since weaning on a forage based TMR ration to allow the bulls to show their genetic potential. We welcome visitors to view the bulls any time prior to the sale at the farm and look forward to seeing all of you at the sale barn on March 14th. Hitman was the $27,000 2nd high seller from the R Plus sale in 2015 that we purchased together with CRM Simmentals. We are extremely pleased with the first calf crop that Hitman produced and look forward to his influence on our breeding program. Hitman saw heavy use in both our programs and at R Plus in 2016. We were fortunate to purchase a semen package on the $170,000 “Riddler” in 2015. His first calf crop is outstanding with quality progeny of both sexes and we used him again heavily in our AI program in 2016. We look forward to the influence that the “Riddler” has on our black breeding program. OnTarget 201 7 - Page 31

Tremendous maternal strength in this sire group.

MULTI POLLED / MULTI RED PUREBRED (Polled and Color tests pending)Our lead off R Plus Hitman 4194B son and what potential this bull has. Sired by the $27,000 Hitman who was the 2nd high selling bull for R Plus in 2015 624D is dark red; sound structured and powerful with that herd bull look. The presence in this bull is hard to deny with that look at me attitude. What a way to start off our offering for the 17th Annual On Target bull sale. If big butts, big nuts and high quality bulls are your kind, do not miss out on 624D.

MULTI POLLED/ SCURRED / MULTI RED PUREBRED612D is a ¾ brother to our lead off bull. Again Hitman on Revolver has created a tremendous herd sire candidate. Long bodied, big topped with that awesome Hitman hind leg. What a job this guy’s mother did as he was the heaviest actual weaning and yearling bull in the pen, and only a 2 year old. What a future these Revolver daughters have here. A little chrome on this guy as well to provide that Simmental look doesn’t hurt the package.

This time out of a 20X daughter and 20X is of course the sire to none other than BLI Red Addiction 224Z that has been so popular the last few years.

The bulls are sound structure with an awesome back leg and attractive fronted and the daughters are big bellied soft made feminine females that look like they are going to make great cows.

MULTI RED / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED (Polled and color tests pending)XXL has again sired an attractive red herd sire candidate. 354D is a long bodied, deep sided bull with a shoulder that sits in smooth and has a correct angle. The XXL cattle are flat good and the consistency to which he makes them is tremendous. We felt so strongly about his breeding ability that when we had the chance to purchase a maternal sister we took it, and boy are we glad we did. The quality is bred in and carries strong through the generations.

MULTI RED / MULTI POLLED401D is a lighter colored, powerful XXL son, 401D follows the similar pattern of strength and performance as his counterparts. Lots of hair, deep sided and plenty of muscle again in this package. You will appreciate this sire group once again.

OnTarget 201 7 - Page 35

MULTI RED / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED (Polled and color tests pending)431D is the lead off XXL 1Y son in this year’s offering. XXL has done a tremendous job over the years siring high quality cattle of both sexes. XXL has sired our 2 highest selling bulls at $26,000 and $23,500 respectively as well as a son at $17,500 also. The daughters of XXL continue to be leaders in their respective age groups in raising excellent progeny with one daughter producing a $10,000 heifer calf this past fall. 431D in his own right is a soggy bellied, soft made individual that travels on a correct leg with plenty of substance of bone. 431D has enough flex in his joints and set to his leg to be the kind to build on. 431D is breeder quality and has the phenotype and genotype to be a tremendous producer.

MULTI RED / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED608D is sired by the very popular Reload who has done an excellent job of siring sought after progeny of both sexes. 608D is big hipped and solidly constructed. His dam is a tremendous female that came to us through a pick of the highly successful R Plus herd and she has quickly entered our donor program. You will travel a lot of miles to find a female with more middle and power with the impeccable structure that she possesses.

MULTI RED / MULTI POLLED UNREGISTERED PUREBRED636D is a product of our ET program combining the power of his sire Roar and the maternal qualities of his dam 609U who is also the dam of Red Addiction. 636D is wide topped, has loads of muscle and is loose hided and carries it all on a structurally sound set of feet and legs. You have to appreciate the overall quality of 636D and his dark red hide. A full brother sold last year to Raydad Farms.

MULTI BLACK / POLLED618D is the only black son of XXL in the sale offering this year, which is unique as XXL is black himself. 618D is a bull I really like for his overall mass, structure, the trademark XXL hair, attractiveness of front third and the muscle that he possesses. Maybe the most impressive part of this whole package is that 618D is able to put all of this together with an 80lbs birth weight. A maternal brother sold to Terry Sheehan in 2015.

The true mark of a herd bull is his dam and 625D has one that continues to do a tremendous job raising both bulls and females. 625D’s dam had her first son top our sale group in his respective year and has raised females that have sold to Dequier Farms and most recently to Mappin / SilverSmith Simmentals. 625D has tremendous potential, big topped, soft sided, excellent hair, plenty of bone and flex with s trong correct foot that he plants squarely through his long powerful stride. 625D has that presence that every herd bull should have with that strong crest that moves into a smooth shoulder and wide fore rib. 625D offers Riddler genetics in a hetero black package with tremendous breeding options.

MULTI BLACK / MULTI POLLED (Polled and color tests pending)411D is our lead off Riddler son for 2017. Riddler was the $170,000 sale feature from Lewis Farms in 2015 of which we were fortunate enough to acquire a semen package. Riddler has done an excellent job both for us and the others who used him with his first calf crop. We sold a Riddler daughter for $10,000 last fall to KD Simmentals and we have an excellent group of females in the replacement pen. The Riddler sired bulls are at the top of the bull pen and 411D is true feature. The mass, structural integrity, hair, volume length and overall breeding potential that he offers make him a standout in the sire group and in the pen. 411D has true herd bull potential.

MULTI BLACK / MULTI POLLED UNREGISTERED PUREBREDS637D AND 631D are ET full brothers from the Riddler and the 312W and are the final two Riddler sired bulls in the offering. These two full brothers are deep sided, wide topped, sound structured bulls. 637D offers heavier muscle with a bit more performance and 631D is more extended through his front third but both have very bright futures. 312W has done a tremendous job for us and her bulls have been highly sought after in past sales. Add consistency to a calf crop with these two full brothers.

HORNED BLACK UNREGISTERED PUREBRED645D is the natural calf from 312W and is maybe the softest, most mellow made bull in our entire offering. 645D is only a March calf but does not give up much to his older counterparts and is a bull we really appreciate. The mass and muscle in this bull are hard to fault and he is sure to add some performance to a calf crop.

MULTI BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED392D is the maternal brother to our 2015 high seller at $26,000 to LaBatte / Circle 7 and patterns very much the same. You really have appreciate the depth of side and overall dimension that 392D offers. The potency of this cow family is hard to argue with when the progeny continue to be leaders in their respective contemporary groups as 392D is. 392D has the potential to be a tremendous herd bull that will sire a sought after group of replacement females and bull and steer calves that will hard to fault with performance and phenotype.

MULTI BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED463D is the kind of bull that is hard to fault. His muscle shape, depth of body and overall structural soundness, topped off with a tremendous hair coat make him a desirable sire prospect. This is the first calf crop from 314B and they are stamped very consistently with quality. Unfortunately 314B was lost due to injury and with limited semen there will not be many sons offered for sale so do not miss out on your chance to own a top son.

You have to appreciate the structure and overall phenotype of 417D with the muscle and mass that is desired by the cattle buyers.

HETERO BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED (Polled test pending)1D was the bull we campaigned last fall as he made the trip to both Farmfair and Agribition as well as being a Reserve class winner at the Canadian Bull Congress in Camrose. 1D is wide topped, heavy muscled, attractive fronted with plenty of flex in his joints. You have to appreciate this bull for his overall dimension and shape and the length of spine. 1D was our heaviest bull for actual yearling weight at 1500lbs the day after returning home from the bull congress. 1D offers our repeat buyers a nice outcross breeding option and is one of the first Ignition sons offered for sale. 1D also offers the highly sought after blaze and is mothered by a tremendous first calving female that has a very bright future ahead of her.

HETERO BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED5D is an ET brother to 1D and offers a more calving ease option with less bone and mass. 5D offers a long spine, extra extension through his front third with the same kind of flex and structure as his full brother and once again the popular blaze face to give those calves the Simmental “look”.

MULTI BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED640D is another black baldy faced bull sired by our maternal brother to Lock and Load who has done a tremendous job across the industry siring highly sought after progeny. 640D’s mother also produced a $17,500 son “Arson” that sold in 2014 to Circle G and Darwin Fuller and a popular Tanker son that sold in 2015. The maternal strength is very prevalent in this herd sire prospect and 640D in his own right is deep sided, long bodied and complete. Don’t miss this attractive black baldy bull.

HETERO BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED643D is a March born bull that fits well into this contemporary group of bulls. 634D is long bodied, square topped with tons of hair. We really appreciate this bull for his growth and performance and the way his shoulder is set in and the extension through his front end. 643D is mothered by a perfect uddered 2nd calver that has one of our very best 2 year old females in the herd. The combination of Call of Duty and 20X are sure to offer tremendous maternal strength in this individual.

MULTI BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED484D is the first son in the offering this year sired by 391A. 391A has done an excellent job in the heifer pen the last number of years and leaves progeny of quality both male and female. Not only are the 391A calves born easily but they get up and grow and were very popular last year for their overall quality. 484D has a very modest birth weight, is square hipped, sound made complete individual that will be easy to find on sale day.

MULTI BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED488D offers more power from the 391A sire group. This long sided, big hipped bull moves out freely and is attractive made. We really like the 391A progeny and see a bright future for them. Put together a group of these 391A sons and be prepared to reap the benefits of the quality that they offer.

MULTI BLACK / MULTI POLLED PUREBRED480D is the final son of 391A in the sale this year. 480D is very much cut from the same mold as his brothers with a modest birth weight, long bodied, strong topped and lots of hair. We really appreciate the overall soundness of structure and phenotype of the 391A sons and 480D is no different.

DOUBLE POLLED FULL FLECKVIEH FULLBLOODWe are very proud to offer this herd sire prospect in the sale. 7D has a small birth weight and the convenience of being double polled. Not only does he have those attributes but you have to appreciate 7D for his overall balance and eye appeal and the muscle that he carries on a moderate frame. 7D is the product of breeding highly maternal, calving ease and consistent producing sires together. Bravo has done a tremendous job in numerous countries and the tried and true Arnolds Image on the bottom side have combined to produce an excellent heifer bull prospect. 7D was displayed at the Canadian Bull Congress and received many positive reviews.

MULTI RED / MULTI POLLED UNREGISTERED PUREBRED428D is only a March calf that has performed very well. Sired by one of the high selling bulls in our 2015 sale selling to Wagner Livestock, he was used lightly in our breeding program as well. We really like the soft side, loose hide and overall completeness of this bull. 428D is sound on the move with plenty of flex in his joints and a strong foot. This bull has a tremendous future and will be registered upon the completion of DNA on his sire.
