Welcome to the 12th Annual Family Tradition Bull Sale What an exciting time to be in the beef business! We didn’t think that prices could go higher but with tight global supplies and increasing demand, the Canadian beef industry is headed into exciting times. It’s important at times like these that we all stay at the top of our game producing and selecting top-notch genetics. Much of our time goes into selecting highly efficient, functional cattle that will add pounds come weaning time. Combined with careful genetic selection we cull hard at our operation so you know that no matter the bull you pick out at our sale you are going to get a high quality animal. If we were to summarize this year’s set of bulls we would have to comment on the depth of body, functionality and performance. The yearlings are a powerful set of calves with lots of hair, hip, and consistency from top to bottom. We are excited to be offering bulls backed by extremely sound cow families and herd sires such as HD and Zorro who have bred above and beyond our expectations. We have purposefully been adding the number of two year olds to our sale over the last number of years. This helps to satisfy our customers looking for an older bull to add to their bull battery, as well enables us to spread out our calving season, given increased purebred numbers on our operation. That being said make sure you don’t overlook the two year olds, there’s a lot of quality and consistency in this bunch and they are ready to head out to the pastures! We have been working hard in the beef business for 30 years to make sure the bulls you purchase from our sale have leading edge genetics, are highly functional, put pounds on the scale, and can be purchased for an affordable price. Whether you’re looking for performance, easy calving, or a bull for your commercial or purebred operation we have the bull for you. We remain committed to our customers, if there is any way we can be of assistance to you please don’t hesitate to call. Carman & Donna Jackson Erin, Autumn, Fawn, Tomina, Haylan

Sales Management Comments Wow, what a great time to be in livestock industry! Record prices were set at commercial sales barns and purebred female sales in 2014. The strong markets show that the Charolais and Simmental bulls are on the threshold of exciting years to come, based on “ECONOMIC EQUATION.” The past markets have proven once again that the Char-cross and the Simm-cross calves sell at a premium in good markets and bad. The PREMIUMS come from both weight gain and market topping prices. This scenario is a “No Brainer”, but you have to have quality product to achieve this and get the “The best bang for your buck”. It starts with sound, leading edge genetics which the Jackson family always produces for their Family Tradition Bull Sale.
We invite you to join us March 20th at the Rolling D Sale Barn near Dropmore, MB where the “TRADITION” of great people and bulls continues. If you are unable to attend the sale and would like us to appraise the bulls for you, give us a call here at Transcon and we will assist you with your bull buying needs in a very professional and confidential manner through our highly trusted order buying service at no cost to you. The best “Stock” to have in today’s economy is ”Livestock”. Darren Paget
For those who are serious about being involved in the production of seed stock, there is a window of opportunity with very little risk and the potential for large gains. Not only have the numbers increased in Family Tradition 2015 but the quality of product produced is the best to date. When you sort through the bulls you will see the consistency of the individual sire groups. Bulls that are big ribbed, deep quartered and have some length of spine, bulls that are hairy and have moderate birth weights yet maintaining the performance needed to get those extra pounds.

SHSH HD 14Y Sometimes the search for your next herd bull is right on your doorstep. That was the case with HD! A bull we found at Sliding Hills Charolais, Canora, SK where his dam has produced consistent high sellers in their bull sale for the past three years.
HIGHBLUFF MS ORGINAL 4T BW: 104. 205D: 1012. 365D: 1578. EPDs: 64 2.2 67 118 21.2 55 Mothered by the high selling female at the No Borders Sale this fall, Bismark has as much body mass as I have seen in a while. Big topped, huge middle, excellent hair, testicles and feet as well as a super disposition; Bismark was Reserve Junior Champion at the National Show in Brandon. These HD sons are super consistent in body type and style and are extremely strong as a group.
HD is a true herd bull with lots of body mass; he is what a Charolais bull should look like. His sons have extra performance and testicle size, good hair coats, strong feet and legs and his daughters have great udders. HD offers so much to the industry in terms of producing soft sided, soggy and loose hided, sound structured offspring with more bone. We couldn’t ask for a bull to breed more consistently and true to his kind. The sons offered in this sale are a very solid group leading off the sale with some of the best bulls we have ever presented.
2. HIGH BLUFF BUSHWACKER 27B

A bull that we just love for his balance and presence. Mothered by our best uddered cow families on the bottom side. High Bluff Bushwacker was Intermediate Champion bull at the National Show in Brandon this fall. Very structurally sound on the ground and has that explosive top when you analyze him from behind. Look for Bushwacker to add performance and mass to his calves.

Here’s a bull we should have had out at the shows last fall and maybe he shouldn’t be leaving the farm. Bodacious has great balance and presence and is mothered by one of Harvie Ranching’s top producing Gellia cow families. His dam is a feminine fronted, good uddered cow. Bodacious has great feet and legs, shows great maturity and a bright future as a big time herd sire.

High Bluff BMW is a no nonsense, top of the line March model that is as deep ribbed and soft made as they come. BMW has always been a pen favorite. His dam has a great udder like the Hank’s do and is a very easy cow to look at with her easy fleshing ability and structural soundness. We feel BMW is a bull that will grow into a powerhouse in the future.
