Along with Rosefield Simmentals we would like to welcome you all to our 8th Annual North Country Ranchland Bull Sale. First, another huge thank you to all of you who have supported us in the past by purchasing, bidding, and showing interest in the past 8 years! 2020 will be a year none of us will soon forget. But especially during these times, us in the ranching industry were not affected by things near as much as other industries and businesses around us. The fall calf run pricing was good and seedstock sales are up and promising, so our industry is still doing well and flowing with lots of optimism.
Georg & Sarah, Moriah, Nevaeh, Aaron and Autumn
Eckbert & Christa, Peter Weitzel
Reflecting back 2020 has been another great year for us filled with lots of great times living on and enjoying our ranch! The year started with a normal average calving season. Spring was great and crops all got seeded in good time. Then spring turned wet so apart from staying out of the mud made for an excellent summer of great hay crops and excellent pastures. We were blessed with another excellent calf crop with great weaning weights. Both on our commercial herd in the fall as well as great weaning weights on our bull calves. Sarah and I have been continuing to enjoy the adventures that come with raising our family on the ranch. This year’s group of bulls is another diverse set of bulls with something for everybody! There is a great selection of Fleckvieh bulls, red bulls, and black bulls. This year again we are pleased to offer both some red and black bulls that I feel reasonably confident in recommending to you as heifer bulls. We also have a great selection of cow bulls along with another group of some Angus/ Simmental crossbreds. Take a look, you won’t be disappointed! They are an extraordinarily strong set of bulls with exceptional performance mostly weaning well into to 800 and 900lbs. Our bulls are continually raised in ranch like conditions. We start calving the beginning of February and the cows spend most of the summer on crown grazing land. Our bulls are not crepe fed and fed a modest TMR silage ration after weaning. Our goal is to continually provide our costumers with sound bulls that will work hard and last. We know that buying your next herd bull is a serious investment. Our goal is not just to sell you one bull one time, but we want to build a long-term relationship of trust with you, our customers. We stand behind our bulls so if you are dissatisfied, we would like to know what we can do for you! If you are ever in the area, stop in, the coffee is always on! We look forward to seeing you at our 2021 sale! Due to the pandemc, please feel free to stop in at the farm prior to sale day to view the bulls! Bulls will be ready for viewing by noon on Monday March 22 at VJV (the day before the sale). We welcome you to come down and view them then if you would prefer not to attend the sale, we welcome you to bid over the phone or leave a proxiy bid so please let us know so we can arrange someone to be on the phone with you during the sale or take your bid amount if that is the route you would like to take.

JANUARY 1, 2018
Karizma is another very exciting addition to our herd! We purchased him from Dan Skeeles in the 2019 Genetic Edge Bull Sale where he was one of the top bulls. He is a very deep bodied thick bull with very flashy eye appeal. He is also very friendly and easy to handle. This is the first group of calves we have from him and they are no disappointment. They are a very sound set of flashy bulls that have proven to be loaded with performance. The females coming up in the replacement pen are also a very flashy set of the top end heifers. I am very excited to see them grow into cows and start their own legacy’s in our herd. BW

Henry is a very fancy Karizma son who will not disappoint. Henry is a thick deep bodied bull who has been a standout from early on. You cannot walk through the bull pen without noticing Henry. He is a twin and when he was born, we were disappointed that being a twin and having to share his cow for a bit with his sister he would maybe not become the outstanding bull that if he had been a single, but we should not have worried! He is a bull that we have very seriously considered retaining as a future herd sire in our herd. His mother is a larger framed fleckvieh cow who never disappoints us whether she brings home a great heifer for the replacement pen or great bull for the bull pen. Her last years bull was the top preforming bull of our pen for 2020 which sold to Jackie Thiessen. Herd bull time!

Polled, thick, long bodied, great eye appeal, moderate birth weight. What more could you ask for in one package? If you are looking for a polled fleckvieh bull who still has great performance despite a modest 80lb birth weight do not look past Hays. He is also sired by our Karizma herd sire. His Dam is a very productive cow whose grandsire is the great Anchor D Viper. Great steers and especially a great set of females for the replacement pen can be expected from Hays!

Harley is a very flashy dark red well pigmented bull with lots of thickness and great length of spine. He is loaded with performance! His Dam is sired by our Raspatuion ZDS 196A bull who goes back to Virginia Maximus and then to Champs Romano. Raspatuion is a bull who slightly reduces frame height but increases performance by adding depth. We have never owned a bull who covers as many cows as our old Raspatuion bull! He is now our oldest herd sire and even with a chronic shoulder injury from a fight that limits use of his one front foot he still covers as many cows as any other bull. Harley should get the job done!

Hawk is another proud Karizma son! He is a slightly larger framed bull with loads of hair and performance! His Dam HYS 110B is one of those cows that we can always count on to bring home something good no matter what you throw at her. She has brought home both some great heifers and great bull calves for the bull pen. Hawk will be a great choice on mature cows for both some scale crushing steers in the fall and a great set of maternal females.

Howard is a Karizma son with a slightly different twist than his brothers. His dam is a red Klondike second calver who is already making a strong name for herself in our herd. She is a slightly larger framed red cow with a great udder and excellent feet. If you are looking for an excellent red bull who is loaded with great fleckvieh genetics mark Howard high on your list. (This is bull that we did not repicture so this is an older advertising photo).

JANUARY 16, 2015
Earthquake is a herd sire we purchased from Anchor D in their 2017 Genetic Edge Bull Sale. He is a direct ALLM COLOSSAL 25U son. He was one of the top bulls in their 2017 offering and its easy to see why! He is my favorite of all the bulls we have ever owned so far. He is a very thick bodied bull who carries exceptional thickness through his top line which carries way down into his hindquarters. He is slightly smaller framed and very well balanced with great pigmentation and eye appeal. He is a pleasure to handle and is extremely quiet; despite being a 2400 lb bull you can touch out in the pen he is very respectful. This is the third group of calves we have from him and we are very pleased with his bull calves and the heifers we have in our replacement pen. His first daughters are now young cows. They are a great set of maternal females with great udders and sound feet and they all come with the same pleasurable attitude as their sire. BW

Hugo is a quiet larger framed thick bull with lots of length and width over the top. He will add loads of performance. His sire Earthquake adds lots of muscle with and excellent disposition. His dam is also a female with a great record going back to Gidsco Apollo. She has a great udder and very sound feet.

Herd Bull Time! Hero is a miniature replica of his sire Earthquake. Looking for a new herd sire to add to your herd? Take a good look at Hero because he might just become your “Hero” in your pasture. This bull has it all! Great length, thickness, eye appeal, moderate birthweight, and a great disposition! His dam HYS 44A is at present one of our top cows that has also built and still adding to a strong legacy in our herd. She is a sightly larger framed female with lots of thickness and a great udder and sound feet. Note his birthdate; he is a March 4 calf making him the second youngest bull in the pen and still weaning at almost 870 lbs at the beginning of October. Do not overlook Hero sale day!

His mother goes back to our old Halfway River Annette cow which left probably the strongest track records of any of our cows is in our herd. Pair that with Earthquake on the sire side and you have something a little extra special. Henrick is another great choice for mature cows for a great set of steers but make sure you keep some heifers too as they should be great additions to your herd.

Huston is the youngest bull in the pen this year. He is a March calf and he still weaned at over 760 lbs. His dam is a super thick red blaze face Bam Bam daughter who has left a large impact on our herd. He is another dark red polled bull who would be a great choice on a set of mature cows for some great performing steer calves and some great maternal females to add to the herd.

Length, thickness and loads of muscle in a performance loaded package. Hardy is a very thick well muscled shorter framed bull. He should reduce frame size and moderate birth weight with out loosing muscle or performance. His mother goes back to the great Viper bull and she was an almost picture-perfect heifer. Sadly, we lost her shortly after calving so Hardy was raised by a foster cow. Do not overlook Hardy! (This is also an older advertising picture).

If this is what his mother, an exceptional heifer going back to Dirty Hairy and Bar 5 Evan can do with her first calf I am excited to see what else there is to come from her! Hank has always been one of my favorites since the day he was born and always a calf that stood out all summer. Despite being raised by the heifer he never fell behind the other bulls raised by the mature cows. Defiantly a polled Herd Bull candidate here!

Hatchet is another Guerrero son raised by a first calf heifer. He is another bull that we have really grown to appreciate. He is long bodied, thick, broad topped, bull with a very fancy dark red paint job. His mother, HYS 90F is from another one of our best cow families that have built a legacy for themselves. They have brought in many top end bull calves for the bull pen including HYS 544H listed earlier. They are also one of our most trusted maternal cow families known for their excellent conformation, friendly disposition and good udders and sound structure. Hatchet is an excellent choice for some second calvers or young cows for easy calving but not giving up great calves that will preform and make great replacements.

Harry was raised by an exceptional young Earthquake daughter. His sire Guerrero we have AI ed to most of our heifers with good success for the last 2 years. He has a 76lb birth weight and is a nice smoothly put together clean fronted bull so I think he should work well on a group of heifers. He is also polled so if you are looking for a little more performance from the calves off your heifers take a good look at Harry!

Huckle is a very complete bull with great length, thickness, and a broad top in a polled package. He has lots of hair and a great disposition. We tried out a new to us AI bull, “War Paint” last year and Huckle is one of these calves. All the War Paint calves including Huckle have been standouts from birth with excellent conformation and excellent growth. His mother 4Z is an excellent maternal cow who has weaned several great bulls and left her mark in the replacement pen. Huckle is a great choice for a group of mature cows to add performance to steers and some great replacements.

Harris is another great heifer bull prospect. He has an 86 lb birthweight and is loaded with calving ease on both sides of his pedigree. His dam is a Sheriff daughter and on his sire side he goes back to the old Hooks Shear Force. His sire is a bull who we purchased from Brad and Elaine Giesbrecht and used in our heifer pen with excellent results for 8 years. If a heifer bull is what you need take a good look at Harris!

Hershey is a lighter boned smooth fronted bull. His dam is a cow we purchased from Flatrock Simmentals as a bred heifer. Her bull calf from 2 years ago was our high seller selling to Gordon Wiebe of Prespatou. Hershey would work great for a group of second calvers for easy calving but still bring home pounds but still come with performance.

His dam, HYS 15 W is a larger framed sound cow with a great udder and an excellent disposition. Honor weaned at over 900 lbs and is packed with performance which results in pounds which results in more money in the bank! Give Honor the honor of looking after your cow pen this spring.

He is a larger framed bull from a larger framed very solid maternal cow family who has produced many bulls for the bull pen and left a strong mark on the replacement pen over the years.

Need a bull for your heifer pen? Happy is a long bodied smooth fronted bull with a small head. His birth weight is 76lbs. His dam is a smaller framed maternal red factor cow who did great job on her first calf! Note his birthdate is March 1st and still weaned at 730 lbs on a first calve heifer. His sire is a Sheriff son who we have used very successfully in our heifer pen for the last 4 years. Happy should be great choice for a bull to use on your heifers.

Holland is another AI calf from War Paint. He is a very complete bull who is hard to fault on anything. He was one of my favorite calves all summer long that always stuck out on the pasture weaning at over 900 lbs. In early winter he got sore on his one foot which took awhile healing which set him back on his gain and therefore on his yearling weight. His mother is a very maternal sound cow going back to 104Y, a red herd sire we purchased from Brad Giesbrecht. Buy with confidence, Holland is a great one!

Polled, thick, wide long topped, great length, eye appeal, performance are all characteristics to describe Honest. His dam is a black cow going back to the old Gunner bull. She has brought home many great bulls for the bull pen and some outstanding females that are working in the herd. She has been to several Fall Fair shows where she and her calves have won several top awards over the years. Her bull calf two years who was a full brother to Honest, won Top Overall Bull at the North Peace Fall Fair. Honest is a great choice to sire many great steers or bulls and make sure you keep a few extra females as well. (This is also an older advertising picture).

Hanson is no exception to the list of legends she has brought home for use both some bulls that have been in the bull pen but also great daughters working in our herd. Hanson is a slightly shorter framed bull loaded with length and thickness. He is sired by Full Throttle an AI sire that I have wanted to try and use for a while. If you are are looking for a black herd bull, take a solid look at Hanson.

Heywood is out of another cow we purchased out of the Flatrock dispersal sale. She tends to run heavy to bull calves and everyone of them has been an outstanding bull calf in the bull pen. She is a larger framed heavily muscled maternal black cow going back to In Dew Time. He is sired by the AI bull Allegiance. This is our second calf crop from Allegiance, and we have not been disappointed. He sired several of our top bull calves last year and we have many top replacements from him coming up as well.

Looking for a heifer bull that is not just an easy calving heifer bull? A bull that calves easy, looks great, still has performance on his calves, then look at Hamlet! Hamlet is a smaller headed smooth fronted bull who is loaded with calving ease. His birthweight was 80 lbs. His mother is a daughter from the great old Sherriff bull who was one of the easiest calving bulls in the Simmental breed. Add Bounty Hunter on the sire side and you have a pedigree that has calving ease written all over it. But the list goes on, Hamlet still weaned at 820 lbs off an exceptional black heifer. If a black bull is on your shopping list mark Hamlet because you do not want to miss him sale day!

Looking for a big powerhouse black bull to turn in with your cows this year but still want to keep some angus genetics as well? Look no further than Hamill. He is a bull that always catches your eye every time you walk through the pen. He is backed by a Rockstar cow family and he follows in the footsteps of many other great bulls from this cow family that have been leading bulls in the bull pen. Weaning at just under 1000 lbs he was our second-best preforming bull for this year’s group. Buy with confidence, this bull should do great things!

Holt is another bull who has the best of both the angus and black Simmental world. He is another large, bodied bull loaded with performance. He is also sired by the angus AI bull Radiance and his dam is a red cow going back to a red herd sire we had purchased from Brad and Elaine Giesbrecht. A great set of steers to crush the scale and some great heifers should be the result of using Holt in your herd.

ROSEFIELD SIMMENTALS
The Wiebe family at Rosefield Simmentals would like to welcome you to the 8th annual North Country Ranchland Bull and Heifer Sale. There’s always a lot of planning and organizing that needs to happen in order for this sale to occur and once again it has been a great pleasure to work with the Weitzel Family from Halfway River Simmentals to plan and organize this annual event. We would like to thank all our past buyers, bidders, and supporters for their continued interest in our program and our genetics, your support over the years has been greatly appreciated! This year we will be offering a variety of AI sired bulls, a few two-year-old bulls that were too young for last years sale, and a couple of unregistered bulls. These bulls are all pail fed a moderate grain ration consisting of barley, peas, and oats; they are also fed free choice good quality hay and silage. Our goal is to sell bulls that will go out and work hard for you for many years to come, bulls that are not overfed or pushed to hard, bulls that will put the extra pounds into their offspring come weaning time. Anyone who has been following the past calf sales will have noticed that the heavy weight calves were bringing in the best dollar per head, so in order to crank up the weaning weights on your calves we would suggest to breed your cows to a Fleckvieh influenced bull.
“Rosefield Ranch hands”
We will be selling a select group of commercial heifers at the sale again; these heifers would make a great addition to any cattleman’s herd. They are all up to date with their vaccinations and will be palpated by a veterinarian prior to the sale. Due to the ongoing Covid pandemic regulations we encourage you to view the bulls and heifers on our farm prior to the sale or at VJV in Dawson Creek the day before the sale. Animals can also be viewed the day of the sale out behind the auction barn. We look forward to seeing you at our sale at VJV in Dawson Creek on March 23rd, 2021!

Lone Stone Envoy 165D “Envoy”
We bought Envoy as a two year old at Lone Stone Farms bull sale in Westlock, Alberta. He is a long, thick, polled bull. We wanted to be able to raise some polled Fleckvieh bulls without losing performance, and it looks like he is doing exactly that.
BEE Raid 312C “Raid”
Raid has turned into a big and powerful meat machine! His calves are long, just like him, and are usually colored very well. Raid is from the Beechinor’s herd and his dam has raised bulls that they have sold in their annual bull sales.
Rendezvous Galba 60A Galba is an AI sire that we have been using on some of our top end fullblood cows and we are very happy with the results; we have noticed that his calves are quite and easy to work with. Our top replacement heifers are sired by Galba and his bull calves stand out in the pen. He is a Homo Polled fullblood Fleckvieh bull with the highest performance Homo Polled the breed has seen with a 97.6 YW EPD.

We have a couple of bulls in the sale this year that are sired by “Galba”. He is an AI sire that we’ve used for a few years now. We are very pleased with the temperament, muscle shape, and performance that he is passing onto his calves. 2206G is a very heavily muscled bull that was born at the end of December. He’s out of a good producing cow that we purchased at Willow Creek Simmental female sale. This bull is not only easy to look at, but has a little extra age, which should allow him to cover a few extra cows in the spring. I believe he will add that extra muscle to his offspring.

Here is another bull sired by Galba and like I mentioned earlier this bull really adds muscle and maturity. We also ended up with a couple of heifer calves out of Galba and they really stand out in the replacement pen with their natural thickness and unique style. This bull is out of a young polled cow who has a good bag and is very easy keeping. I think this bull will produce a good solid set of steer calves and his females should make good cows.

This Raid bull has been a standout from a very young age. He is out of a big thick cow that we bought from Beechinors a few years ago. This bull has a little extra birth weight, but when you see his big powerful dam then you will know that his birth weight is totally in perspective. Raid is a deep bodied, long spined bull that I feel will not be a hard calving bull at all. Graff Simmentals out of Progress BC bought a bull out of this cow 2 years ago and say he is doing a good job for them.

The sire to Stingray is BEE 312C “Raid”, who is no stranger to anyone who has been following our sale for the past three years. We have sold several “Raid” sons through our sale over the years, and as his daughters are maturing and producing, we are reminded each year of why some of our best registered cows need to run with him in the spring. His calves are marked well and have excellent performance. His females are gentle and are heavy milkers. Stingrays dam is a very thick cow that has a perfect udder. In my opinion he should turn out to be an excellent choice for any herd.

We went down to the Western Harvest sale in Innisfail last December and bought a heifer from the Eagle Ridge Simmentals herd. She was bred to a calving ease fleck bull and we ended up with this very smooth fronted, polled, dark red, goggle eyed bull. He’s the friendliest guy in the pen and always wants a scratch. Admiral looks like he should calve smoothly, and with his dam going back to Anchor T Impact there should be a lot of performance in his calves.

Hugh is the youngest bull in the pen and usually our youngest bulls get cut from the sale due to their age, but because of how quickly this bull is catching up and how well he is developing I decided to put him in the sale. Hugh’s dam is a very thick “Sting” sired cow who is cherry red with big goggles. I think this is one of the best built bulls in our bull pen. Hugh would be a good choice for someone to use on fullblood cows, and should raise some good seed stock.

Here is a horned bull that is loaded up with lots of good Fleckvieh genetics. His dam is a direct “Crossroads Radium” daughter who is out of a FGAF Magnum cow we bought from Beechinors several years ago. I feel this bull would be a good pick to put in with a group of young, maybe second calving cows; as there is a lot of calving ease bred into this bull. We have used Rolex in our AI program quite a bit and the females calved smoothly. A few years back I kept a Rolex son for myself and tried him on some heifers and found that they calved great.

Rosefield Haldor is an AI son out of a big thick cow that we bought years ago at Moose Creek Simmentals herd dispersal sale. This cow has had many bulls come through our sale over the years. At 11 years old this cow still has a perfect bag. The sire, “Double Bar D Haldor” is a very good-looking Fleck bull that has 9.6 for calving ease. I believe this bull will develop well and be a long spined animal with lots of muscle and eye appeal.

Last December we bought some black females at Skors Simmentals complete herd dispersal sale in Innisfail, Alberta. 291H Rosefield Tanker is the son to one of these females and is a TNT Tanker son that we are very happy with. He was the heaviest calf at weaning, coming in at over 900 pounds. This bull shows lots of body length and walks out very freely. This bull should take all the horns off his calves and should sire a set of really good calves.

Another nice smooth polled black bull out of a cow that we purchased at the Skors Simmental herd dispersal sale. Obviously, these cows are still new genetics in our operation, but the reputation of the original owners is exceptional. They sold over 400 registered females in their sale and we feel very fortunate to have ended up with a few of them, out of which we ended up with a few excellent bulls to offer in our sale. We feel that Alliance should work well with any group of cows.

Hudson is a very quiet bull who always comes up for a scratch. Just like most of the “Raid” sons, he come with a little extra length and is very sure footed. His dam is a “Vuurslag” daughter with a very tight and tidy udder. Bernie Reimer from Prespatou BC bought this cow’s bull calf at our 2020 sale.

Red eye is out of a nice young Wolfe Atomic FF 616A (Sting) sired cow who is a very well put together cow with a nice tight udder and a very good disposition. This bull calf has inherited great disposition from both the top and bottom side of his pedigree. I think Red Eye will make a good all-around herd bull.

Wrangler is a good fancy “Raid” son with lots of middle, length, and width across the top. His dam is a Wolfe Atomic FF 616A (Sting) sired cow who goes back in her pedigree to 4L Expert and Anchor T Metro, so there is lots of proven Fleckvieh genetics here. Our “Raid” calves stand out every year come weaning time. I think Wrangler will sire a really solid set of calves that will fetch your top dollar in the fall calf sales.

Another solid red “Raid” son coming from a “Gidsco Appollo” sired cow that we bought from Willow Creek Simmentals. She has a very neat and tidy udder and we have a bred heifer out of this cow who is ready to calve any time now; she too has a well-developed udder. “Raid,” the sire to 95H has been the best footed herd bull that we have ever owned. He is a long-bodied bull and is very consistent with coloring his calves red with goggles.

Envoy is out of our polled full fleck bull that we bought from Lone Stone Farms a few years ago. Most of his calves are coming polled and have really good growth. We are calving out our first heifers out of Envoy now and so far, we are very pleased with them. This bull would be a good option to put in with a group of mature cows.

Radius is out of a good thick fullblood cow who is a “Rolex” daughter. For the last fifteen years we have been focusing very hard to raise Flechvieh bulls with red goggle-eyed faces, and every year more and more calves are coming with good pigment on their faces; Radius is a prime example of what we are striving for as far as color goes. Radius would be a good pick for almost any group of commercial cows.

Heston is a very smooth made, dark red, goggle eyed “Raid” son that catches my eye every trip to the bull pen. This bull has many generations of dark red color behind him, both on the dam and sire side. Hestons dam has about as perfect an udder as you could ask for. I think this bull would be a good choice for red or black cows and should produce very functionable offspring.

This bull may not carry an actual registration paper but he truly is one of the better bulls in the pen. Hank is a polled, long bodied bull who shows lots of natural thickness all the way through. He is out of a traditional Simmental cow that has put four bulls into our sale over the years and has put many replacement heifer calves into our herd. Hank is sired by our polled herd sire “Lone Stone Envoy”.

The two two-year-olds bulls that we brought to the sale this year were too young to go into last year’s sale, so we decided to market them as two years old instead. Gagnon is a very smooth made bull that I feel will calve well. He is sired by “Lone Stone Envoy” and is a polled bull. Due to his age, he should be able to cover some extra cows come breeding season.

This bull sired by our “Lone Stone Envoy” bull will be exactly 2 years old on sale day. He is a long bull and travels out very well. On the dams’ side he goes back to “Expert” and “Anchor T Metro”, so there is a combination of great Fleckvieh genetics here. His dam is 12 years old now and will calve in the middle of calving season again; there is plenty of longevity here and great production.
