Checkers Red & Black Simmental Sale
Welcome to Checkers Welcome to the Checkers 20th Anniversary Sale. When the Checkers inaugural sale was held in 1995, it was a somewhat new concept that has evolved into Canada’s longest running Red & Black Simmental consignment sale. Checkers has done an unbelievable job of identifying breed-leading genetics and has been the premier event when it comes to marketing live cattle, semen and embryos. There have been as many or more foundation genetics marketed through Checkers as any other sale venue in Canada. The 2014 offering is equally as impressive as any offering in the first twenty years. We have four 2014 bull calves with the potential to develop into breed-leading sires. The female offering is as stout and appealing as any Simmental sale has ever had the pleasure to merchandise. The bred heifers are all safe to exact breeding dates and possess the pedigrees and services to create a genetic combination to be truly rewarding. Females that carry the potential to return their purchase price annually with each calf. The open heifers are truly sweetheart females that can go in your show string, but more importantly, possess the potential to equal their year older sisters in the bred heifer section. A set of heifers that sincerely represent where the Simmental industry is at today. The pick of the 2015 heifer calves from Lewis Farms is a rare opportunity to make your personal choice from one of the front-end programs in today’s beef industry. The genetics on offer from the Frozen Genetic Vault by way of semen and embryos, represent old proven genetics that are rarely available in the Simmental breed, as well as the most sought-after genetics in the Simmental breed today. All being highly proven in the interesting and profitable world of raising beef cattle. I would like to personally thank all of the consignors and buyers for 20 years of Checkers. It has certainly been an honor and a pleasure for Bouchard Livestock to have been a part of this event. We are very familiar with and proud of the genetics on offer, and we welcome your calls and inquiries. Should you require assistance or representation sale day we will be honored to represent your needs with the utmost of professionalism. DLMS will also offer Checkers 2014 on line. Merry Christmas and all the best in 2015. - Brian Bouchard

27115A Twp rd 524 - spruce grove, ab - t7x 3m9 ken lewis: 780.818.3829 ~ jordan buba: 780.818.4047 kyle lewis: 780.220.9188 www.lewisfarms.ca ~ info@lewisfarms.ca Lewis Farms was founded in 1932, just west of Edmonton. In the early 1970’s the farm expanded to include the Spruce Grove operation. We also now have a place in the Sangudo area where a large portion of our summer grazing as well as our summer calving takes place. We grow seed potatoes, grain, canola, forages and run a large breeding operation of Simmental and Angus cattle. The Simmental influence started here in the late 60’s and 70’s with the use of imported semen. Now semen, embryo and walking herd sires are all utilized. Our breeding program develops Red, Black and Fullblood Simmentals as well as Red and Black Angus. Our Annual Bull Sale runs the last Saturday in February, offering over 300 Simmental and Angus bulls. We invite everyone to our upcoming 30th Annual Bull Sale, February 28,2015 at 1:00pm. We are fortunate to have been involved with the innovative Checkers Sale since its inception and are proud to be a part of the 20th Anniversary Sale.

choice of 2015 born heifers AT LEWIS FARMS
Its been years since we have opened up the entire herd for someone to pick a heifer from. We will calve out just over 600 Simmental cows between our winter and summer calving periods, over 50 of which are embryo babies from matings we are extremely high on. 2015 born calves will be sired by up and comers: Commissioner - who was our 2014 high seller, Discovery - MRL’s 2014 high seller, Big Time Ashworth’s 2014 high seller, Bounty - our second high seller in 2014. We will also have a handful of calves by Reload and Red Mountain. Our walking bull battery may be at its strongest right now. It includes Springsteen, Gotham, Beer Money, Goon, Ray, Power Wagon, Commander and Armour. A few more bulls get added to the summer breeding including Advance, Cobra, two Full Throttle sons, Chunk, Badlands, Sting, and LFE 496T. Our cow herd speaks for itself with many generations stacked of productive cow families. We are extremely strict on our cow herd and cull hard. Structure is our number one thing in our cattle along with longevity, foot size and shape, udder quality, fleshing ability, attitude and overall ability to produce a saleable calf each year. We are opening up both calving groups to the successful buyer to choose a 2015 born heifer calf at LFE. Selection of a winter born must be made by September 1, 2015 and on a summer born March 15, 2016. Please feel free to give anyone at LFE a call about this exciting lot.

Sire to Lots 2-5: Harvie JDF Wallbanger 111X
Every year there is a heifer that stands out as a favourite and this year it is certainly 30A. The consistency in her bloodlines runs deep. A full brother was without question one of the best black bulls we have raised and was a highseller in our 2013 bull sale going to Westgold Farms. We have another full brother in this year’s bull pen that is red and he will no doubt be a feature in this year’s bull sale. The Wallbanger progeny are good and out of the LRX 112U cow they are exceptionally good. We plan on flushing 112U to Wallbanger as three in a row of this quality proves consistency. If you are in the business of raising bulls, this is the type of female that should produce the good ones. One of the best females that we have raised. AI bred to Mr CCF Vision on March 29.

Black 91A We purchased the dam of 91A from the Labatte bull sale in 2012. She has turned into a very good young cow. 91A is a typical example of the Wallbanger females. They are feminine with good udders, lots of volume, hair and good temperments. We purchased a semen package on Mr CCF Vision and used him on most of our red and black heifers.

56B is a high performance heifer with plenty of thickness and volume. She is a full sibling to LRX Blaze 55Z who was a feature and high selling bull in our 2013 bull sale. The Blaze 55Z bull was used heavily in our program and at High Country Cattle services and two other very good commercial herds with great results. This black blaze face heifer should have a lot to offer when you analyze her body type and consistent pedigree.

This heifer’s sire, LRX Blaze 55Z, has left a very consistent group of calves for us and others. The bulls sired by him are high-performing, early-maturing bulls with lots of hair, middle and testicle. They will be very popular at our bull sale in February as they have all the traits that commercial bull buyers will be looking for. The females sired by LRX Blaze 55Z are also very easy to pick out in our heifer pen. Hairy, quiet and big-ribbed, just like LRX 112B. We used LRX Blaze 55Z very heavy in our breeding program again last spring and he will be available in the Genetics To Make A Difference semen catalogue for the spring of 2015.

Service Sire: TNT Bootlegger Z268
Sweet Dreams is a blood red heifer that is moderate-framed, with a ton of rib. The ‘Flor’ cow family is noted for producing the African Thunder bull for CarLaur Simmentals of Ontario. Just like her peers, 311A is going to be a powerful momma cow. We are really excited to be calving out our first T-Bone 34Y daughters as they are setting down beautiful udders. 311A is filled with not only proven cow families but herd bulls that have left their stamp in the industry. Sweet Dreams is hard to part with but you need to sell the good ones to stay ahead in the industry. SWEET DREAMS are made of these! Bred to TNT Bootlegger Z268 on March 29 Exposed to HPR Firstime 4A from May 1 to June 1 Ultra sounded safe to AI on June 9

Irresistible 410B Well here is J.R.’s pick. ‘SI’ is not only a sweetheart to work with, but is just plain and simply good. Her picture unfortunately does not do her justice, but one can still tell she is loaded with stifle and flank. When you get behind her she is ‘wide as she is tall’ as they say. The Prim N Proper cow family has proven to be a strong set of cows, producing herd bulls and females for breeders and inherd. Simply Irresistible is going to be a knockout as she matures, guess work is done. Now you just need to decide is ‘What will you breed her too?’

My original black cow B361’s daughter PI’ R2 was my first offering in Checkers in 1997, selling to Soderglen Ranches. Well, as the years have come and gone, the ‘Primadonna’s’ have and are still working in this industry. 11L is my only direct daughter that I still have of B361 and you just know every year that she will raise a good one. Vogue would make her Grandma proud as she is following right in the proven footsteps. From two black parents, lots of black hair - makes for her to be a worker in both facets of the breed.

Red Wine 431B A dark red heifer from our ‘Camille’ cow family that is a sweet, sweet thing. With maternal sisters working in strong reputation cow herds such as McIntosh Simmentals and Big Sky Simmentals, this little lady is following in their footsteps. Her dam, 643S, is always a conversation piece on pasture tours as she is as angular, big-ribbed, deep, stout as you can get, with a beautiful udder. The Timex daughters are time-tested and proven to be outstanding females. She is one of two daughters that we are offering from our new herd bull, Erixon Red Iginla 49X, that we own with our great partners at Eastend, SK; X-T Simmentals. The industry giants of KOP Crosby and Bodybuilder are in the boy and he has proven to be a consistent producer that I see a great future with. So pour yourself a glass of Red Red Wine and toast to being in such an incredible breed and industry.

Buckshot 404A
If you’re looking for a new herd sire, here he is. This bull calf has been the all-star of our pasture tours all summer. Buckshot’s amount of depth, hip, and muscle, followed by his clean front has been a stand out since he was young. Buckshot had a 68 pound birth weight and weighed in September 1st at an impressive 878 pounds! Can you say performance? His mother LBCC Temptress is out of one of our great cows on the farm, LRX Red Rose, who has only given two heifers her whole life. One in our herd and the other sold to the good people at Mappin Simmentals (which went on to mother their high selling bull last year). If you are serious about a great red bull, with awesome performance numbers, this is a bull you’re going to want to stop in and see come sale day! A true sale feature! Homozygous polled Retaining 100 straws of semen for in herd use.

LBCC Behave 431B Behave is a heifer calf that we have been watching all summer. Her mother has consistently thrown us bull calf after bull calf, so to finally have a heifer calf we were pretty excited to say the least. Behave may not have that “show ring” look but she has a deep side, tons of stretch, sound when she moves and she’s big ribbed. She carries her depth right through to her flank. This is our last year for selling any calves out of CMS Unique, we feel that the offering of animals off of him justifies why he was in our herd for so long, and why most of our female herd was based around him. Behave is bound to make her new owners happy, we don’t think that she will disappoint come sale day!

All Dolled Up 107A
This bred heifer is our first offering out of our infamous “Doll” line of cows. We currently have two full sisters in the herd, so we are convinced that she is going to go out and do big things for her new owners. This bred has a huge top, big middle, more booty then you can shake a stick at, and the cherry on the cake - she has near perfect udder development. She is going to go out and become a top performance cow in anybody’s herd, as her full sisters have done nothing but impress us here at home. The breeding to the Wheatland Bull makes this heifer even more desirable then before! The breeding itself has all the makings to be a home run, and that makes us excited for her new owners!
AI’d to SS/PRS Tailgater on March 25. Mated to Wheatland Bull 319A on April 14. Safe to mating.

Service Sire: MRL Discovery 21A
This summer and fall we have debated back and forth whether True Figure would be offered for sale this fall. She has been a favorite right from the time she was born. She is a heifer that you will want to look at a second time. True figure is long-bodied and has massive rib shape to her. You have to appreciate how well she moves on excellent feet and leg structure. And the udder she is setting down is looking to be excellent. Her sire, MRL 38X (TNT Power Surge and Red Hemi), is making super females with exceptional udders for us. True Figure’s dam is one of our black program’s building blocks. The icing on the cake with True Figure is that she is carrying an MRL Discovery 21 A baby. He was the $59,000 MRL high-selling bull last spring to Maxwells and Bouchard Livestock. The possibilities of this mating is exciting, two individuals that we feel have so much to contribute to the breed with new genetics. We would like to reserve a flush on True Figure 90 A at our expense and the buyer’s convenience.

COLB Sequoia 81B is a heifer with that WOW presence about her. She has had many admirers this past show season and folks that have visited the farm. Sequoia has a style and presence about her. When you analyze her you have to appreciate her stoutness and depth of rib. She carries this depth down through her flank to her lower leg. Add in she has a real sound foundation under her with excellent feet and leg structure. Its not an accident that Sequoia is exceptional, her dam, Lois 81Z, who is a daughter of IPU Revolution, is as structurally correct as you will find - a huge-bodied, big-hipped cow with an exceptional udder. This pair were declared the Supreme Champion Female at the Dawson Creek fair in August. Judge Jim Henderson said ‘This is a heifer calf that will have an impact on the breed.’ As mentioned, Sequoia’s dam is an IPU Revolution daughter who is out of a Peltons Power Cat dam. Her sire is WFL Identity. We are very pleased with our Revolution females, they can produce. Willow Creek is proud to bring Sequoia 81B to Checkers. She is an Impressive individual that her new owner will be proud to own. Future donor cow possibilities.

Here’s a heifer that you really have to appreciate with how much mass and top is in her, while still being sound structured from the ground up. ‘Their Choice’ is a female that ties it all together with a tremendous neck and very feminine head. She is a maternal sib to the multiple-time calf Champion and 2012 Reserve overall Legends of the Fall Champion Heifer Calf we raised and showed. She is homo polled by pedigree but will also be tested.

Replica 15B

Replica is the type of female that has cow written all over her phenotype. She is built from the ground up, very appealing with a big foot, lots of bone and is great structured. She ties that together with an abundance of belly and rib shape and as you get into the rear third of her body, she is stout-hipped and wide through her hook and pin set with the amount of top to go with it all.

You move into her fore rib and find she’s as strong as they come tying that into a very capacious belly and rib. As you analyze this female you find she’s long and deep through her final third of her body as she comes into a very sound set of feet and legs.

PAUL MAXWELL & JENNY ROSS 631 Cameron Side Road - Perth, ON - K7H 3C9 613.720.3142 ~ Email: paulmaxwell@rogers.com Welcome to the 20th Anniversary of the Checkers Sale. It is an honour for us to be consigners again in this prestigious sale. It was a very wet year here at Perth in Eastern Ontario and only with the freeze up has it seemed to stop raining! It is an especially great time to be a farmer and double that if you’re in the beef cattle business. I would like to thank Blair and Stephanie McIntosh for hosting and getting our calves ready for the sale. We offer for your appraisal two real broody heifers produced this year. Both are from our top end, front pasture cows. They will make terrific additions to any progressive enterprise. Feel free to call about any enquiries about these females.

Black Velvet is a powerful, long-bodied Horizon daughter wide over the top and deep through her quarter. She is an own daughter of Lulu, the terrific cow I bought from Blair and Stephanie McIntosh from Maymount, SK. When she became available for purchase at Agribition I knew she was the black cow I would build a program on! I retained her first two daughters and just love their style, femininity and easy-fleshing stoutness. I have my first Lulu granddaughter, a solid IPU Black Attack daughter and she is phenotypically a carbon copy of Lulu. Horizon 7Y, (thanks Barry for including me), Black Velvet’s daddy, what can I say other than he is producing many sale high sellers and the best calves I have ever raised! Bull calves are stout and meaty and the hefiers are so hard to part with. Help yourself on sale day! Vaccinated: Pyramid 5 + Presponce and Trasvax8 - May 3, 2014.

604N came out of Checkers as the high selling black bred heifer from the 2005 sale, probably fair to say before we as an industry realized the tremendous genetic contribution Dynamite females had to make. 680S and Dynamite are about as complimentary in terms of performance, overall muscle, rib and volume as any two sires in the Simmental industry. Maternal wise, 680S daughters possess that perfect udder structure while Dynamite is above breed average for milk. Full throttle possesses that exact genetic combination and is impacting the Simmental breed in a huge way.

This embryo mating possesses some of the top breed-influencing combinations of pedigrees in the Simmental breed today. The Mariah 112M donor has one of the most proven stacked pedigrees available. Power Drive has a long history of siring females that influence their progeny with performance, style and eye appeal. 112M was a high selling heifer calf right here at Farmfair and traces back to the very proven Centerfold female a Nichols Black Destiny female who was also a high seller coming out of Checkers. Captain Morgan caused a stir when he sold for $190,000 but the real story is being written as his calves continue to impress with style, performance and the overall type that people are falling in love with. Broker has definitely rose to the occasion in terms of style and functionality siring progeny that have excelled in the show ring and in the bull pen. He also has sired the loose-made, big-footed cattle that continue to impress the most critical commercial producers. If you want cattle that can go to town ad excel in your breeding program these matings will work.

She 3.4 6.3 62.3 88.3 6.0 59.6 28.4 was a carbon copy of the Primrose cow that lived her life out at Barry LaBattes. Unfortunately when we contracted her she did not produce any exportable embryos. I told Fred at BHR about her and he flushed her later - 151N was the one exportable embryo that came to North America. The embryos on offer are sired by BHR Doorn. There is not much that hasn’t been said about BHR Doorn. If you ranked the South African bulls in North America Doorn would likely make the top five.
