Welcome...
Welcome to our 2020 sale… in April! A new date, a new decade, some new practices and a whole lot of the same belief in your program and our shared cattle and beef industry. With our new sale date, we hope to avoid extreme cold and family winter sports engagements, and to sell more mature and growthy bulls. Please mark Tuesday, April 7th on your calendar and come to Diamond T to consider an Angus bull purchase. And/or perhaps a heifer?!

The challenges of 2019 stimulated us to create more value for you in the bulls you purchase. We love ‘touching base’ with as many of you as we can to hear your successes and opportunities for growth, your goals and your short and longer term wishes. This has led to some changes around here and how we work to support you and your cattle production needs. We appreciate what you have identified as the greatest benefits to using our ◊T bulls. Namely, you say: • the longevity of our bulls in your herd is economical, lasting on many farms for 5-6 years; • that temperament is huge, and most love how quiet our bulls are; • how good the daughters are out of our bulls in terms of productivity and how this has enhanced mothering ability and maternal characteristics in your cowherd; • the calving ease and vigour of our genetics at birth gives most of you more live calves per cow. We are also extremely grateful when you praise our motto: “We stand behind our bulls and beside our customers.” We are fully committed to ensuring your satisfaction and do so with pride in our bulls and belief that we do as best as anyone can in backing up our bulls and you. Further, we now have three generations making our living off of ◊T, ‘living’ by the weather and the market, being frustrated by aging infrastructure and equipment and political situations, and trying to create as much opportunity for our kids as possible while looking after our founders, Grandpa Gary and Grandma Donna, both now octagenarians. We find the challenges we have mirror many of our supporters, our ‘highs’ and ‘lows’ are often the same, as we walk the same difficult and rewarding path as so many of you do, of living off our cows. We also appreciate your constructive feedback: some of you want our bulls to be bigger and stouter with more mass and muscle, growth and maturity. To this end, we have heard you and are responding. We have partnered with Bullseye Feeds on a TMR for our bulls as well as replacement heifers and even worked with them on our cow herd winter feeding plan. Doug Roxburgh (see page 21) is part of an impressive, inspired team at Bullseye who provide products and services focussing on: • Experienced Consultants; • Foot Health; • Calf Health;
• Forage Management; • Optimized Rations; • Cow Comfort.
We are extremely excited to show you the results of this new silagebased program at our bull sale. Our new ◊T Stockman’s Choice sale date of Tuesday, April 7th, 2020 (the first Tuesday of April) will feature the same hospitality, same location, and bigger bulls! We will love to see you there. If you would like to come and inspect our bulls before, or their mothers, we are happy to see you!

• When the LLB sale catalogue arrived in 2018, we were taken by the picture accompanying Lot 227: the depth of the rear quarter, the muscle expression through the rump and top, and the character in his front end. Brody’s trip to LLB confirmed what they hoped: 884D needed to come to ◊T! • In their footnotes, Laura said, “One of the top weaning and yearling weight two year old in the offering. Dam reports a weaning ratio of 105 on four calves.” This was important to us as we were looking for more weight and performance. • We had purchased his maternal sister, 884C (dam of feature Lot 1927!), in 2016 and were already very impressed by her production, so we knew that, maternally, 884D would be good for us, too. • His EPDs remain extremely balanced, giving additional performance without additional BW or lower CE. The highlight, however, is that Top 30% for YW, which will give us (and you!) a little bigger cows and feeders; • Sire of 5 bull Lots 1925, 1947, 1984, 1988 and 19100. Also sire of the 1911 and 1932 heifers.

• “In all my years of selling bulls, I’ve never written a footnote in our bull sale catalog. I’m not really into writing footnotes. With Bravo, I could write a couple of pages, but I’ll keep this short and sweet. Bravo is a rare individual, I feel he’s the best bull we’ve ever made. Bravo is a result of years of our breeding philosophies, and he is a combination of my two favorite animals we’ve bred here.” - Larry Coleman, Coleman Angus. • Bravo is truly a genetic masterpiece: tons of rib and body, loads of red meat, easy fleshing king, maternal qualities and excellent eye appeal; many reputable cattlefolk now labelling Bravo a ‘foot fixer’. • Broke the record for the State of Montana when the gavel fell at $450,000 for ½ interest to Sandford Ranches in Greenwood, Texas. • We are currently flushing our two best cows to him and plan many ‘Bravo’s’ influencing and impacting our herd for years to come. • Sire 2 bulls, 1933 and 1959, and 2 heifers, 1953 and 1965.

• Shawshank is in the Top 2% for both BW and CE. Maternally, however, we are very excited about what his daughters will do for us with his Milk EPD in the Top 1% and his TM in the Top 15%. • His dam, HF Annie 240Z, was designated Elite/Premier Dam this year. • Among those calves, Shank is the only bull with 3 sisters, Grand River Angus Farms LLC purchased 209D, Thomas Clayton selected 174F and, in an historical move last November, Ranch Covey Hill from Havelock, QC selected HF Annie 82G as their $95,000 ‘Pick of the Heifer Calves’ purchase from Hamilton Farms in Bohrson’s ‘Power & Perfection’ sale at Agribition! • We felt like we were very fortunate to purchase Shank when we did. Given how his dam’s stock is rising in the breed, we feel even better about it now! And we are very, very high on his calves and know you will be, too. • Sire of 8 bulls: 1905, 1912, 1914, 1915, 1919, 1927, 1973 and 1994, as well as the 1917 yearling heifer.

• The first of our red bulls… we only wish we had more of them! • High Caliber isn’t thought of as a heifer-safe bull, but we breed him to heifers and have never helped a single one of them. 1908’s 84 lbs BW, along with his smooth shoulder and model Angus head suggests calving ease. • High Caliber offspring grow like crazy and 1908 has too; he is our 3rd highest ranking bull on growth from weaning to yearling weights. • The “May” cow family is extremely maternal, and goes back to our inaugural Red Angus purchase in 1996.

• This bull is just all kinds of good and impressive. Most folks touring our place since last June have picked him as our best. • Our growthiest bull calf to weaning last year: he ranked 1st of 43 on the farm. • Will be the biggest, heaviest, soggiest bull on sale day. • EPD profile shows impressive maternal (Top 10% for BW and CE and Top 4% for Milk) balanced with respectable growth. • Another of the bulls we showed in our Pen-of-3 at the Medicine Hat Pen Show just before Christmas. • Based on 1912, his dam is at DRI getting flushed multiple times this year. She is our favourite 70Z daughter and perhaps the greatest of our benchmark “Bardolier Lass” cow family. • This growthy, pounds-oriented stud will leave you a set of steer calves to be the envy of all your neighbours. • Calving Ease Bull.

HARRIMAN RANCHES - EARL & SHELLEY HARRIMAN FAMILY Earl and his wife Shelley operate a generational family farm in the Rockyford area and operate a 400+ head cow/calf outfit. They market their calves annually through the online TEAM method and continually top market trends with their hairy, massive, thick Red & Black Angus cross calves. The foundation of Earl’s cows would trace back to the maternally driven Crowfoot herd so the females are massive ribbed, highly fertile and built around longevity. When chatting with Earl and Shelley about Diamond T genetics, he had this to say: • Good disposition, low maintenance cattle • Achieving their performance weights from calving through till sale day • The heifer pen looks good, the future looks better

She came along with 41Y, the maternal grandam of 1980 on page 27. • 90Y’s first bull sold to Ontario purebred Angus breeder Van't Slot Farms. Another son sold to Lawrence Schmidt. • We were huge fans of Rush Hour when he was born, all the way to when the Sibbalds purchased him; that’s why we kept a piece and still breed to him. Of all his sons, 1946 is the one who patterns the most like his daddy.

• It just wouldn’t be a ◊T sale without offspring from our great flush dam, 1441. In short order, she’s made quite an impact not only at our ranch, but on the breed. Michelle Peake is breeding a son at Peake Ranching who now has 11 registered offspring after year 1. TSN at Brandon, MB purchased a flush and has a few Bank Note-sired yearlings. And, of course, Larry Nielson is profiting from her at Craik, SK’s Nielson Land & Cattle. • 1979 has a stacked set of EPDs: his performance is exemplary with Top 15% rankings for both WW and YW, and maternal characteristics are not far behind with Top 15% for TM and Top 40% for Milk. Even his BW is just off breed average, so you get superior performance with modest BW and CE. • Backed by one of the breed’s elite donors, this moderate-statured, stout-featured calving ease bull is thick-ended, big-barrelled and has a perfect design to leave you a gorgeous pen of replacement heifers.

We gave our heifer selection a re-think for this year’s sale and we hope you like it. The three of us independently ranked our replacement heifer pen, then we combined those and created a final rank. While we each have our own criteria, we believe soundness and structure, balance and fertility, muscle and breed character all factor in prominently. Then we paired the Top Two and on down the list to the end. In the Top Eight pairs, we have selected one to keep and one to sell in Stockmans Choice, so these eight heifers represent 8 of our Top 16 overall. There are no red heifers as we are trying to grow those numbers, but we did include one black/red-carrier as these have been popular in the past. And we also ensured that our selection of the sale heifer from each of the top pairs included at least one example from our sire groups, so you see Shawshank, Concorde, Renovation, Bravo, Rush Hour and Rage. We hope you appreciate these heifers because we sure do!

• With her 2-year-old maternal sister in herd, we are letting this shiny, wide-based diamond sell. • Extremely feminine, so very pretty and tons of body, thickness and depth to showcase her as a real little cow. • EPDs are average for growth, but top shelf for calving and maternal characteristics: Top 4% for BW and Milk, Top 5% for CE and Top 15% for TM. • We love her 1841 sister. We hope you’ll appreciate this Angus model. • Given how impressed the Angus world is with HF Annie 240Z now, we are thrilled with how maternal 243E’s first yearling daughters are proving. We believe Shawshank will be perhaps the greatest cow-maker we’ve used.

• A cool heifer consigned by Tracy from her signature cow family, “Empire Queen”. • She loves them because they are much thicker, rounder, stouter and heavier than the norm. • Ultra-easy calving with balanced growth and maternal EPDs. • 1210 has produced 4 females and 2 bulls; sons sold to Kendal Toews and Earl Harriman; Tianna Frenzel took a heifer as a Junior project; two are in our herd. • Perhaps the broodiest, cowiest heifer in our offering.

• One of our very best Coleman Bravo heifers… for you to take home! • Some additional growth in this heifer: she recently ranked 8th of 29 in gain since weaning to yearling. • 108Z came to us as a yearling heifer out of Nielson Land & Cattle’s spring sale at Craik, SK. • 1953 skews a little more toward performance and muscle shape than to maternal, but you won’t guess that when you see how cowey she’s made! • We are very fond of this tanky cow prospect.

• The final heifer in our offering, 1980 is our Renovation heifer representation. • Her growth has actually taken off since weaning, and she ranks 2nd for gain in her group of 29 yearling heifers. • Very balanced EPDs, highlighted with her Top 30% showing in lower BW. • Impressive on the profile, even better from behind, like her dam, 1980 is a model Angus female. • 41Y has been a profitable addition: sons sold to Klaudt Ranching, Coralta Farms Ltd., a Cleveland Cattle, those great young stockmen Calder and Dawson. • Only other daughter is in herd and calved a bull on February 6th. • Definitely a female that will attract the attention of astute breeders, whether on a halter or producing valuable offspring in the pasture.

• The performance that comes from this cow family, particularly 217’07 herself, is highly evident in this thickly-made, prominently-hipped heifer. • Performance is notable: she ranked 6th of 23 in her group for WW, Indexing 108, and is 3rd of 29 for weaning to yearling gain. • Impressive EPD profile, all leaning deeply into the territory that gives you extra pounds, no-maintenance calving, more milk and better cows. • This high-performance, stout-featured brood cow is wider-pinned and broader-based than most females you’ll see this spring.
