WELCOME TO OUR 35TH ANNIVERSARY BULL SALE! As we work towards our 35th Anniversary Bull Sale, we can’t help but feel excited about the bulls we are offering! Purchasing a bull is an investment and this year’s group of bulls are consistent, hardy and reliable, and developed with the intent to serve you for the long haul. The sale bulls have been selected from sound, dependable mama cows and herd sires that have had to prove themselves each year in order to stay! Many of you know the area where we raise our cattle and we expect them to work for their living without sacrificing productivity and fertility. We strive to develop cattle that can yield, are productive and profitable and will advance your programs! Our cow herds have for many years been honoured and recognized for numerous Dams of Merit and Dams of Distinction by the Canadian Gelbvieh Association. Whether you raise commercial cattle or seedstock cattle, and need one bull or several, our offering is large with genetics that will add value to many diverse, progressive operations. You’ll find a complete selection of cow bulls, heifer bulls, many half brothers and new bloodlines. For your convenience, each sale lot has been sire-verified and have genomically-enhanced EPDs. Eye appeal makes or breaks a good-looking set of calves and like you, we respect the ones that not only look good, but are structurally sound. These bulls have been fed to best achieve 3 lbs. a day of gain under the supervision of our nutritionist to optimize longevity, ensure soundness and stand the test of time.

This classy, stout bull has “rizz” as the kids would say. Speaking of kids, there wasn’t a young friend or junior Gelbvieh member around who didn’t get a chance to lead Cameron’s Buckle Down bull around the ring, what a great disposition! Homo polled and homo black, calving ease, and steady growth, he’s made us some memories and will make some at his new home too.

Your last opportunity to bring home a Jubilee son. For his final year in service, we bred him to some elite females and are pleased with the outcome. Jubilee prospects pattern well, have an attractive phenotype and once again were among the highest-gaining sire group among the Lonesome Dove sale offering. His sons make their way to top of everyone’s list. Jubilee puts capacity, ease of movement, length, growth, and depth, all in one package into his sons and the dozens of Jubilee females we have in our herd are proving to be fertile and reliable. DRT

Yellowstone has proven himself to sire attractive, well-balanced, smooth-fronted bulls with eye appeal. We’ve retained a dozen Yellowstone heifers which are also standouts in our replacement pen. Adding that extra look, he marks his calves well and he sired two show prospects including DRT Lonesome Sapphire Jewel 3L who won Reserve Grand Champion Gelbvieh Female at the 2024 NWSS in Denver, CO. He’s versatile, many of his sons could be used for either cows or on well-managed heifers. Yellowstone was raised by an extremely good cow, Lonesome Glass Slipper, who features slightly different bloodlines, and Julio 115F who goes back to the original Julio 432J, an iconic herd bull from Vernon and Eileen’s program.

HOMO POLLED

A bull that we are excited about! Legacy has lots of style, he’s long-spined, well balanced, and good-footed. He’s out of the Vagabond cow, a Ruttan daughter who has exemplary maternal genetics and a fantastic udder. He carries the Yellowstone stamp, put a star beside his name, you’re going to watch for him.

Fertility and longevity are keys to profitability -- the bulls on offer are raised by females that are productive, raise a calf every year, and maintain sound udders and feet. In 2023, the Canadian Gelbvieh Association ranked Davidson Gelbvieh as number one in the registry for owning the most Dams of Merit (25), and having bred 23 of them; and owning many Dams of Distinction (6), having bred 8 of them. Lonesome Dove Ranch was recognized for owning and breeding 13 Dams of Merit.

Looking for an out-cross calving ease bull, we selected Brett Favre 1G from the Overby Stock Farm. Shape, “look” and long-sided, he is a great addition to our program! Look for his second bull offering to all be out of our 2-year-old dams.

Our last set of Macon bulls to offer, he will be missed! A proven calving ease sire who ambitiously covered many females each year for many years. Macon was dual purpose, working equally as well on mature cows. His calves always hit the ground running with vigour and strength, sensible birth weights and an ability to gain. We have dozens of Macon-sired females in production and they all have a good foot under them, including DRT Lonesome Champagne 32F, Reserve Champion Mature Female at 2021 Canadian Western Agribition (and mother of sale lot 159L).

Ross and Tara purchased Like Gold, a Cowboy son out of a Banjo daughter, to fill a gap for both heifers and cows. This bull has offered and provided the extra style along with calving ease and vigour that everyone wants when calving heifers. He tends to produce clean-fronted, attractive sons and daughters. His sons had an average birth weight of 85lb at birth.

Cattle are the property of the buyer as soon as the auctioneer declares them sold therefore buyers are urged to insure animals for full value. CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRATION - Each animal will carry registration papers issued by the Canadian Gelbvieh Association and will be furnished in the name of the new owner after full settlement has been made. Every bull purchaser, outside of Canada, has the sole responsibility to investigate home country registration, on desired sale lots, and level of re-registration in home country, prior to purchase. BREEDER’S GUARANTEE – All cattle sold at our sale are veterinary-inspected prior to the sale and are fully insurable on sale day. Each bull sells sale day along with a valid semen test as provided by a licensed Veterinarian. We suggest you buy full mortality and fertility insurance on your bull purchases. A fertile bull can lose his ability to settle cattle therefore prudent management of your breeding bulls’ overall health is very important, es-

pecially throughout the breeding season. Watch your young bulls breeding activity early in the breeding season and don’t let an older bull intimidate his actions. Our warranties do not cover bull injuries or sickness not apparent sale day or guarantee that bulls will produce semen that will freeze. All cattle sold sale day are the full responsibility of the new owner. Any issues must be reported in writing, within 6 months of sale time to Davidson Gelbvieh and Lonesome Dove Ranch and are to be accompanied by a Veterinarian’s Certificate. BULLS LEFT FOR LATER DELIVERY ARE DONE SO AT THE BUYER’S RISK. INSURANCE ON PURCHASES IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUYER. At no time will the breeders Davidson Gelbvieh or Lonesome Dove Ranch be liable for a credit more than the original purchase price. Homozygous black and homozygous polled animals included in this sale are as reported by and reliant upon the results from qualified labs in Canada and the U.S. SOLICITING – Promotion of cattle, other than those in the sale, is frowned upon and considered an unethical practice during any sale. ACCIDENTS – although every precaution will be taken to protect the safety and comfort of buyers, Davidson Gelbvieh/Lonesome Dove Ranch assume no responsibility in these matters and disclaims any liability, legal or otherwise, in the event of an accident or loss of property.
