Building the Legacy 12

Shawn

Birmingham chair, Canadian Angus foundation

The Canadian Angus Foundation extends a welcome and heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated donors and supporters as we present the 12th Building the Legacy Sale. Contributing to the Foundation not only supports the ongoing success of the Foundation, it also empowers breeders young and old through research, grants and scholarships as well as preserving the history of Canadian Angus. Research and education have always been important aspects of the Foundation. The funds generated through this sale will help in the development of many tools that will further the growth of the breed and Association. I applaud those who see the benefit of the Canadian Angus Foundation and their willingness to donate to this great cause. Together we can continue to build the legacy of the great Angus breed that will preserve and expand it for generations to come. I wish everyone all the best at the sale and on your farm or ranch over the next year. It is a great time to be in the cattle business, so let’s celebrate and have some fun at this great event.

Chad Lorenz Chair, Building the Legacy Sale Committee

It is with both excitement and gratitude that we present Building the Legacy 12! For 12 years, this fundraiser has been the epitome of generosity and loyalty for the greater good. On behalf of the sale committee and Canadian Angus Foundation, I would like to thank all of the breeders, businesses and Angus enthusiasts that have contributed their genetics, services or time for the benefit of all Foundation initiatives.

Lots 1 through 5 feature significant genetic options via picks, pregnancies and a flush that will make a positive impact in any breeding program across the country, and if they hadn’t been kindly donated to the Legacy sale, most of them would have never been made available to the public. The frozen genetic selection includes progressive and exclusive options as well as some of the most proven and iconic donors and sires in the breed. The services and vouchers in the sale have been assembled from professionals throughout our industry. We hope that you will not only consider their donations in the Legacy sale but also their services throughout the entire year— their contributions certainly do not go unnoticed. Additionally, the offering will include experience packages, art and items that are suitable for your family or home.

Please reach out to any of our sale staff who also donate their time and expertise for this fundraising event. They will all be happy to assist you or represent you if you are unable to join us in Toronto on June 8th. The sale will also be broadcast on DLMS for your convenience. I encourage everyone to attend the Canadian Angus Convention for its entirety, which will conclude with Building the Legacy 12 on Saturday evening. See you all in Toronto.

Tom deWaal President, Canadian Angus Association

Hello and welcome to the Building the Legacy Sale 12. It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to this prestigious event with donations from all across the country: live picks of cattle, semen, embryos and services as well as trips and you name it are all part of the exciting offering. We have to remember that the proceeds from the Legacy Sale go towards the Canadian Angus Foundation and all of the great junior programs that it provides annually, along with contributing to preserving our history and building our future with contributions to research and educational events for our members. I had the pleasure of going to Showdown in Swift Current last summer where in excess of 150 kids were there enjoying, learning and getting to know each other in a friendly and safe environment. The cook-off was a spectacular event and taught the kids how to work as team members. I also attended the GOAL conference in Kelowna in February and I saw a lot of the youth building up their self-esteem in public speaking and communication. All these programs as well as research are supported by your Canadian Angus Foundation. I’m looking forward to seeing this year’s offering in Toronto, and I would encourage you all to participate in the event. It’s good for kids, it’s good for their parents, and it’s good for the industry. Let me be the first to welcome your participation.

I am incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Angus cattle and see how Angus cattle flourish around the world. I strongly believe that these opportunities were made possible to me because of my involvement in programs and events that have been sponsored by groups like the Canadian Angus Foundation. The Foundation gives young Angus enthusiasts opportunities to attend events and programs that will further expand their experience and allow them the opportunity to make decisions that will move this great breed forward into the future.

We are proud to make available the pick of the 2024 calf crop, both bulls and heifers, solely owned by Gilchrist Farms. Our program has focused heavily on the use of industry-leading sires and dams that have surfaced as breeding matrons for our program as well as for others across North America. We have been honoured to have won the Premier Breeder or Exhibitor banner at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair at 7 out of the last 10 exhibitions. We have hosted the In It To Win It Sale with a number of other elite breeders and are proud to offer the largest selection of Angus bulls annually east of the Manitoba border.

We hope this opportunity will grow into a valuable asset for the successful bidder and know that the proceeds will be used to better this great breed for young Angus enthusiasts across the nation.

Tullamore Farms is pleased to offer the pick of our 2023 bred heifers in the Canadian Angus Foundation’s Building the Legacy Sale 12. As they are celebrating 102 years of being in the Angus business, they feel it is important to support the Canadian Angus Foundation as it endeavours to support our youth, the future of the Angus breed. As president of the Canadian Angus Association in 1993, Bill was humbled and honoured to sign the letters of incorporation for the Canadian Angus Foundation, a great initiative and investment for the future of the Angus breed by the board of directors at the time. Sylvia has fond memories of serving as a Foundation committee member for six years and as chair from 2014–2017. Purchasing new genetics and showing and selling Angus cattle have given Bill and Sylvia the opportunity to make a great many friends across Canada and they look forward to visiting again at the Canadian Angus Convention and the Legacy Sale 12. Pick to be completed by September 1, 2024.

When we were approached about participating in the Building the Legacy Sale, there was no hesitation on our part. However, when Matt inquired about the possibility of including an EF Primrose 925 pregnancy, there was a moment of contemplation. But seeing the benefits and knowing what all the Foundation does and also having benefited from it myself, it is only fitting that we do our part to help grow this great program. EF Primrose 925 has become one of the most decorated females in recent

years having been named Champion Angus Female nine times and Supreme Female eight times! Since moving to the donor pen, her progeny have followed in her footsteps, bringing home multiple banners on both sides of the border. EF Primrose 925 has been a female that has worked with any sire you cross her with, and we feel this pregnancy will be no exception. A great opportunity to acquire some elite genetics to benefit an elite event!

HLC Envious Blackbird 58K is a heifer that we have fallen in love with more and more from the day we purchased her from Hollinger Land and Cattle in 2022. She is as close to the ideal Angus cow as we have on our farm; she's deep middled, big hipped and has the udder we all dream of! She tore up the tanbark here in Ontario last summer and was recently named Ontario Show Female of the year for 2023. The best part to date is the heifer calf she had this spring.

Here is your opportunity to flush 58K to the sire of your choice in the spring of 2025. Be sure to look her up at Whiskey Lane on the Friday tour if you are at Convention!

It has been suggested that our high quality, easy fleshing, straight Canadian bred cows mated to the best of American bulls, could be a genetic explosion. So here it is, the best of both worlds. Glen Islay Pride 31A has been a favourite of many visitors and has been described as “exactly what an Angus cow should look like”. She has produced an outstanding herd sire for Southgate Angus that we plan

The sire of these embryos, Baldridge Badger, has created tremendous interest by walking the pastures at Schaff Angus Valley in North Dakota. Very limited semen from Badger came to Canada and these embryos will be some of the first progeny from Badger who is destined to be one of the most popular bulls in America.

Embryos are stored at Provitro ET Services at Kirkton Vet Services and are exportable.

herd, we are

help “build the legacy”. Cattle have been part of Iris Creek Farms since 1852 but the purebred Angus herd is a new adventure. We have worked to source Angus genetics that fit our program and the type of cattle we want to raise. We are offering choice from 2 exciting matings. Embryos are exportable.

Kemp Brothers Bailey 52D x Brooking National 0144 — We like the calves from this mating so much that we flushed the cow to National again. She traces back to one of the best Angus herds in Ontario, Bailey Acres.

GF Lady 218K x Ellingson Badlands 0285 — We love the job this 2-year-old donor is doing on her Crackerjack heifer calf. There is some cow power built into this pedigree with Greenwood High Class as a sire. She goes back to the Hamilton Tibbie 22C cow family. The bottom side is stacked up with some great Johnson Livestock and SAV Renown genetics.

S A V Emblynette 9812, a flush sister to the $250,000 S A V Bloodline 9578, has quickly risen to be a top producer in our herd. Her pathfinder dam, S A V Emblynette 2369, is unmatched in the breed for phenotype, performance, and overall production. Matched with the $1.5 million sire S A V America 8018, the resulting progeny is sure to make an impact!

MBA Madame Pride 9140 is a pin-up girl in our program. She has three daughters here in the spotlight with her last calf being in the top 25 registrations for weaning and yearling EPDs.

R B TOUR OF DUTY 177 DAM CUDLOBE ERICA 14D

CUDLOBE ERICA 96W

This combination of Cudlobe W Erica 14D and Yon Saluda checks all the boxes for any Angus breeder. Functional, maternal, carcass and performance traits are all highlights in this mating. A Tour of Duty daughter, Erica 14D is a long bodied, powerful cow, with exceptional feet and leg structure. She is a Premier Dam in the Canadian Angus herdbook. Her mother’s sire, Cudlobe In Focus 5S, is a Canadian Elite Sire and an American Angus Pathfinder Sire. Her granddam is also an Elite Dam in the Canadian Herdbook. Yon Saluda comes with all the functional and phenotypical qualities you would expect from a Sitz Stellar son. His carcass profile is top shelf and perhaps the best of any Stellar son on the market. Our Saluda calves are looking exceptional this spring.

This power bull has peaked several peoples’ interest when they have seen him and his calves. His name is Peak Dot Belfast 2099H. He is a powerful Colossal son that offers calving ease with more frame and performance. His easy fleshing, fertile Element dam has an excellent udder and very good feet. His sons are very consistent in type with added length, body mass, muscle and nice looking heads. They were the lead off sire group in the 2024 Peak Dot Ranch Spring Sale and his daughters are among some of our favourites in the replacement pen. Belfast ranks in the very top 1% of the Angus breed for weaning weight, yearling weight, heifer pregnancy rate, and maternal calving ease EPDs. He also ranks right near the top of the breed for carcass weight EPD.

S A V Theory 2914 is a highly recommended herd sire. He possesses a strong and masculine appearance with a straight top line, a big square hip, and impressive body dimension. In addition, he has a gentle and calm temperament, excellent foot structure, easy fleshing ability, and is a great natural breeder who covers females effortlessly. What sets him apart is his exceptional pedigree, which includes some of the most renowned cows in the Angus breed. His legendary dam, SAV Emblynette 2369, is unparalleled in terms of her contribution to phenotype, performance, and production. She has generated more than $4 million in progeny sales, with many top-selling bulls and females in SAV production sales. Furthermore, his paternal dam, S A V Emblynette 3243, is an exemplary Angus female and one of the most impressive daughters of Density worldwide. The initial calf crop at Brooking has instilled great excitement, hinting at a promising future for S A V Theory 2914. Stored at Alta Genetics, Balzac, AB.

A next generation kind of bull we feel can contribute to your program in any way you decide to make him. He’s most known for his recent win as the 2023 Canadian Western Agribition Grand Champion Angus Bull. When we think of Four Mile, we think of the generations of cow power stacked on top and bottom, the incredible look and muscle expression he possesses, the foot and udder quality backing him and the first calf crop that has already made an impact, including Ter-Ron Milestone 56L who topped the Ter-Ron bull sale at $40,000 to Peak Dot Ranch and Glasman Farms. He’s proven on heifers and he’s proven to add pounds. His Elite donor dam, 28Z, is icing on the cake; his list of highselling maternal brothers and sisters is no fluke. Utilize Four Mile’s outcross pedigree to the current mainstream and you won’t regret it!

The dominant Angus bull in Ontario for the past two years, he’s more than just a pretty face; with his genetic heritage, a balanced EPD profile, big square foot and structural integrity, Bruno is a breeding tool that can elevate any Angus to cow to the next level.

McGregor 601J is a dark red, long bodied, stout made rascal with plenty of growth that is put together about as correctly as you can make one. After a great fall run in Western Canada, he was named the CAA 2023 Red Angus Show Bull of the Year. He was Champion Bull at Olds, Reserve Champion at Lloydminster and Reserve Senior Bull at Farmfair, even though he really didn’t act like a show bull. Every time he hit the ring, he would cock his head sideways and show all the rest of the bulls how tough and masculine he was. He is an ET combination of a tremendous Red Towaw Indeed 104H daughter and the great breeding Contender bull from SSS. His full sister was a $17,000 heifer calf in the 2021 Red Roundup Sale. Limited semen sold for upwards of $600 per straw last fall.

Density and Net Worth will forever be considered two of the most influential Angus sires who left an impact throughout the breed across North America and the world. Together they have more than 7,500 direct progeny registered in the Canadian herd book alone. They were both born 20 years ago and were two of the many heavily used sons of Traveler 8180. Twenty years later, each of them is still very relevant and semen is becoming rare, particularly if it is female sexed. Density has always been admired as one of the great female sires, improving phenotype, udder quality and fleshing ability. Net Worth has sired powerful sons, with added muscle and mass, and daughters that were very productive with added longevity. Here is a great opportunity to flush a cow to sexed female semen on two of the most proven and productive sires of all time.

When we purchased Jullian from the Young family, we had two goals in mind: make highly productive females and create bulls that the commercial cattleman needs. With added length, muscle shape and herd bull character, Jullian accomplished exactly what we wanted. His low birth weight makes him an outcross pedigree to utilize in the replacement pen and still have calves with enough jam that they grow exceptionally well and will make the bull and replacement pens.

We are once again excited to participate in the Legacy sale. We offer what we believe is one of the cornerstone bulls in the Angus breed. We have used sons and grandsons of 6595 with huge success. He is one of the proven Angus sires that excels in the traits that make our breed so popular. Maternal traits and bulls with ease of fleshing and large testicles. These are time-tested genetics that will move a program forward.

Hobo 1961 was a legendary calving ease and maternal sire that was a high-volume sales leader for ABS throughout the 90s. His semen is very rare and hard to find these days as he sired 1,968 calves in Canada and exponentially more in the United States. He is a designated Elite Sire and is in the top 40% for combined index—quite a feat for a bull born in 1989.
