Welcome from Transcon

Welcome to the annual Genetic Source bull sale, held in the premier sale facility in Western Canada - The Keystone Center and Canad Inn located in Brandon. This year’s offering will be the largest to date with outstanding quality! Big Sky Simmentals is coming off a spectacular fall sale season with their females averaging over $10,000! The Smith and Peters families have worked their way to the forefront of the Simmental industry. Synonymous with Fleckvieh Simmentals nation wide. This will be a good set of Fleckvieh and Red bulls for you appraisal. There will be a small group of fall-born Fleckvieh bulls that will have that extra age to handle a few more cows. You will want to check out MMVI 2C. He is a ALLM Colossal 25U son that goes back to the great MFL Zaila cow. Oakview Simmentals is also coming off a very exciting fall sale season seeing semen off their new herdsire ”Current Affair” very sought after. Todd and Danna have an excellent set of bulls this year with some feature reds out of the old 6P cow, seven sons in total. On my early January visit, 11B & 160B were true standouts out of Crosby’s mom. The Fullbloods will be led by an outstanding Jerimiah son (50C) that is coloured great with great muscle shape and hair; and wow, a direct BHL Western 36R son (203C) who has herdbull written all over him! Triple R Simmentals has another strong set of bulls this year. Year after year the quietest pen of bulls you will ever find. You will see a few red Big Time sons that were very impressive in January; and again this year, an excellent group of black bulls. If disposition is important to you this is a must-see set of bulls! Bring your family and come join us in Brandon for the Genetic Source Bull Sale! If you are unable to attend, give any of us at Transcon a call and we would be happy to go through the bulls with you. See you in Brandon! This is a great week of bull sales in Manitoba so it’s worth a road trip!

Welcome to the Genetic Source 2016 Bull Sale from Big Sky. We are extremely proud of the group of bulls that we are bringing to town this year and feel we have something for everyone. If there is one thing that we pride ourselves on at Big Sky is that these bulls are fed to last. The Full Flecks and Fullbloods are some of the strongest we have raised yet. Whether you are looking for performance or calving ease, there is something for all the Fleck enthusiasts. Take note as a lot of the Fullblood bulls have been tested for the dilutor gene so they can be used on black cows to add some power, milk and the sought-after chrome the market is paying a premium for. Our red factors this year offer something different than most years. The Revolution sons will still be very noticeable, but also check out different AI sires used, as well as bulls that came off the cattle purchased from the Workman’s at Minto. These bulls will definitely produce very marketable calves. New to Big Sky welcome to the black division. Although we only have a handful of black bulls this year, the quality is second to none. If you’re wanting something to make those heavyweight calves at weaning, don’t miss looking at these guys! All bulls are located at Trevor and Amy’s at Rivers. If you are wanting to come prior to the sale and evaluate the bulls, the coffee is always on! The bulls have all been on a full vaccination program and have pour on. Again, we want to thank all buyers and bidders from previous sales, and invite you to come to the Canada Room at the Keystone center on the 14th of March and evaluate the bulls.

Full Fleckvieh NonDilutor Turbo is outstanding. He is not only out of Colossal, he comes from some of the strongest cows you can find. Big Sky Erin (aka Baby Erin) was a standout from the day she was born. Anyone that actually came across Baby Erin on pasture tours loved her, unfortunately we lost her in the fall of 2014. Baby Erin goes back to the original MFL Erin 30E cow, she was one of the thickest cows that ever walked at Big Sky. You couldn’t help but notice her flawless feet and legs, capacity and calm demeanor. And to top it all off, she was a direct daughter of the legacy cow, MFL Zaila 8Z! Fact: Zaila had 52 calves registered to her in her lifetime due her incredible fertility! So with all these proven genetics and the specimen Turbo has become, we have complete confidence that he is going to do some great things! Turbo sells with 35 straws of on farm use semen that we had drawn early January.

Horned Fullblood 1153569 MMVI 65C 16Feb15 Full Fleckvieh NonDilutor 65C came out of our pick of the Beechinor bred heifers at Fleck Equation 2014. Thick, widetopped, and lots of barrel, this bull is definitely one that catches the eye of everyone who goes through the bull pen. Weaning off his dam at 852lbs in early September, this guy has impressed us since day one and continues to impress us more every day. His sire is a Viper x She Devil son that Beechinor’s kept to use themselves. Viper himself needs no introduction as he has really enhanced the Beechinor program and really put them on the map.

Gingy is also a cow that you can always count on to moderate birthweights regardless of who you breed her to. With Chaz being the third of three full brothers to go through this bull sale (the other two being high sellers) we have great confidence in this breeding.

The Sweet Nugget cow family branches throughout the Big Sky herd and she also has a collection of sons out in the industry, including one at Semex. 28C is going to be a favourite in the pens at the sale, be sure to look him up.

We have four full sisters to Chesney at home, two being first time calvers. With the calves we see at their sides already we are pretty excited to see what’s going to be coming in this fall. With the genetic mix of Kim and Columbus you should expect heavy weaning calves and functional, hard working females.

Convoy is a close relation to our Lot 1. His dam is a full sister to Turbo’s dam.

This guy definitely will catch your eye. Who wants those sought after black calves at the market yet still have the weaning weights that will get you the extra $$$? This guy fits the bill. This guy has performance written all over him. His sire was selected for his larger frame score and he definitely passed it onto this guy. Add in his perfect muscle expression, yet maintains a smooth shoulder, this guy is one to check out.

Carson comes to you out of one consistent cow who just keeps on doing it year after year. Betty is one of those cows that you never see because she is always working, she calves fast and unassisted every year and when her calves hit the ground they are up and on the move. Due to injury this will be the only bulls on offer out of NAC Trustin 12A. He left us with a couple bulls to sell and a few females for the herd, we really like what we see so it’s a shame to know that he is gone!

His attractive blaze face, long body and wide top line makes me think of nice paychecks in the fall when you are selling his calves off the cow and getting top dollar for them. The old Mona cow is still around raising some of our top red calves. Whether she gets bred red or Fleckvieh they always come to the top and it seems that her half Fleckvieh daughter Haylee is doing the same. 204B is three quarters Fleckvieh with solid red and blaze face…sounds like a great future herdsire. And his extra age is just a bonus for breeding larger cows and more of them!

Thank you to all of the buyers from the past seven years for making our sale a success! Also we would like to thank everyone who either purchased or bid on Oakview Cattle over the past year. With so much optimism and excitement we look forward to what the cattle industry has in store for the future. This year we have a solid group of Full Fleck, Fullblood and Red Simmental bulls to sort through. We are starting off our offering with the Fullbloods and Full Fleckviehs this year. We are super proud of the overall thickness, rib shape and muscle expression throughout the group. Leading off the offering is an extremely impressive Western 36R bull that has the style, thickness and capacity we strive for. Following him is a Jeremiah x Metro Full Fleckvieh bull with a top and quarter second to none. This year our Fullbloods include something for everyone, whether its calving ease, performance, horned or polled; we have just what you are looking for. The Fullblood bulls have been tested for the non-diluter gene which opens up opportunities for use on black cattle. We started off our red offering with seven maternal brothers out of the legendary Kop 6P cow. These bulls are sired by three different bulls and each one is as impressive as the next. These bulls are all extremely thick, wide-topped, loose-made and are truly an impressive pen. We round the sire groups up with some new, tried, tested and true bulls to form the most powerful set of bulls we have ever offered. A portion of our red bulls have been tested for homozygous polled status, and several of the ones that were not tested are likely homozygous polled based on parentage but we had to draw the line on testing somewhere. All bulls are semen tested prior to the sale and are fully vaccinated and have pour on. The bulls were weaned in September at which time they are brought home and put on a complete pelleted ration. We encourage and welcome all bull shoppers to stop by the farm prior to the sale to view the bulls, their moms, and our herdsires. The bulls will also be available for viewing in Brandon on the Saturday and Sunday prior to the sale. Oakview Simmentals Todd, Danna, Brooke & Hayden

The top on this bull is second to none and flows into a package made up of tons of overall capacity and a thick square quarter. BLCC 203W is a cherry red, tight-uddered cow who consistently produces top-end calves, like Oakview Zahari who sold to Mark Land and Cattle Co a few years back. Last year she was flushed to the great old Western 36R and the stars aligned. Copenhagen is everything we strive to produce, he is thick, soggy-made with tons of hair, and a great set of feet and legs under him. Here’s a bull that deserves the attention of breeders.

Full Fleckvieh Oakview Caesar is a dark red double goggled bull that screams herd bulls. The dam of Caesar is a very powerful Crackerjack female we purchased from Beechinors as a bred heifer. We are extremely impressed with the Oakview Titan calves that we have had to date. He seems to be the perfect combination of power and calving ease. We often use him on our bigger framed cows as a way to bring the frame score down a bit, lower the birth weights yet keep a powerful stylish calf. He consistently stamps his calves with lots of pigment and passes on the tremendous middle that Titan was admired for. Caesar is a structurally sound, masculine bull with lots of testicle development, great power and performance wrapped into an appealing package with a pedigree that is sure to work.

Full Fleckvieh Here is a bull with calving ease predictability written all over him. Cobalt slipped out of a first calf heifer at an easy 72 lbs but still has the performance behind him to have an adjusted yearling weight of 1471. His pedigree is stacked with well-known calving ease names on both sides of his pedigree. The cow family has maternal calving ease built in as well as they always seem to calve very quickly, easily and early. Cobalt himself is one of the heaviest pigmented bulls in the pen. He is Dark red with huge double goggles. He profiles very well with lots of length, smooth shoulder and a huge apple ass. He is one of those bulls that we have talked about keeping around to use in our own heifer pen, and probably should be.

KOP BENGIE 6P KOP Bengie 6P wrote her own legacy at Kopp Farms, producing several breed leading progeny, most notably KOP Crosby. In the short amount of time we have owned Bengie she has started to make a huge impact on our red herd. We admire her for her tremendous capacity, huge top and overall power. She has been very consistent with whatever sire we mate her with, always producing top-end progeny. Our bull pen was hugely influenced by her with three different embryo groups. She was flushed successfully to Godfather, Superduty and Red Mountain. The three sires are all high demand short supply bulls we selected strategically for both power as well as calving ease to mate to the no-fail 6P. It is truly a testament to the consistency of Bengie when you see all seven of the maternal brothers in the flesh. They are, simply put, a must see! Soggy, long-bodied, muscular, hairy with eye appeal describe the Super Seven.

Take a serious look at this guy as he is good enough to stand with any lead off bull out there!

Rounding out the Revelstocks we have a flashy baldie. Oakview Captain is a moderate hairy bull with lots of rib structure and depth. The cow family behind Captain is a very maternal group. We have several descendants of BLCC Miss 28N, who was Danna’s first red cow dating back to her 4-H days. “Missy” and all of her daughters are admired for their pear shape, excellent heavy-milking udders and natural thickness. For the cattleman looking to retain some females Captain is one we have confidence in.

Even as a 12 year old cow she continues to be a very functional female who continues to calve early and milk hard. If you are looking for a red baldy bull to produce females that will stand the test of time. Take a look at Cosmo.

OAKVIEW CHUNK 148C

Polled Purebred • PG1141271 • OVS 148C • 20Jan15 A few years ago we were able to add a true powerhouse to our bull battery. Erixon Wellington is an extremely impressive seven year old bull. His power, thickness, overall mass, huge feet, testicles and kitty cat disposition attract attention of all who come to visit the farm. These will be the first bulls we have sold off of Wellington and we are pleased with how they are developing. Chunk is just that... a chunk! Just like his sire, he is packed with performance. He is long-bodied with lots of hip while possessing a clean front and lots of testicle.

Welcome everyone to the 2016 edition of the Genetic Source Bull Sale. These are exciting times to be involved in the cattle industry. Makes all the hard work and effort worthwhile, let’s hope it’s here to stay for an extended period of time. Extremely happy with how the bulls have developed this year. From sales management to people touring the pens, the comments are the same “the most uniform group to date, stout, thick, goodhaired bulls with the trademark Triple R temperament”. The red section will be anchored by three powerful KWA Big Time sons. Real happy with his calves - long, big-hipped and all business - you can’t miss them! The black pen is awesome, both Poker Face and Ultimate Choice are represented. Quality in this group is very deep, you will have trouble picking a favorite. All bulls are semen tested by Dr David Hamilton of the Morden Vet Clinic prior to the sale. They are fully vaccinated and have had pour on twice (October/January). We welcome all inquiries prior to sale day. Feel free to drop us a line or email. We hope to see you sale day. -Rick

This dark red Big Time son will lead off our red section. A power bull with an abundance of length, quarter shape and overall muscle. 28C also carries plenty of bone, a little different red pedigree as well as an awesome hair coat. His heavy-milking dam has already produced a front runner for us at Genetics VI, he was the pick of the pen and went to our long time commercial customer Calvin Reykdahl. Our feature calf in Genetics VII was a powerful X-Plosion son raised by 28C’S sister that went to Greg Dunning. The consistency in this cow family is second to none, you can’t go wrong with this bull. Poll test pending
