WELCOME
Welcome, friends, to our fifth annual production sale here at our place in Buhl, Idaho!
This past year, my family and I watched the movie Wonka, and I was truly inspired. In it, Wonka’s mother shares a powerful truth: “Every good thing in this world started with a dream!” How true that is. Dreams spark growth, drive improvement, and push us toward something better—both for the dreamer and those around them.
As the movie unfolds, Wonka sings a song as the boat nears the land of his long-awaited dreams: “After seven years of life upon the ocean, it’s time to bid the seven seas farewell. And the city I’ve pinned seven years of hopes on lies just over the horizon, I can hear the harbor bell. LAND, AHOY!! Got a tattered overcoat and battered suitcase, got a pair of leaky boots upon my feet. Gotta drag myself up by my one good bootlace, gotta work my rotten socks off if I want to make ends meet. I’ve poured everything I’ve gotten into my chocolate, now it’s time to show the world my recipes. I’ve got 12 silver sovereigns in my pocket, and a hatful of dreams!”
Can’t we all relate to Wonka? At Dille Red Angus, we feel like we’ve walked in his leaky boots at times, but we’ve been fortunate to be held up by that one good bootlace. We’ve worked hard, sometimes tirelessly, to make ends meet. We’ve poured everything into our cowherd, and now it’s time to share the fruits of that labor with you—the bulls that make this production sale a true success.
This year, we are proud to offer the stoutest set of bulls we’ve ever raised on our ranch. By combining outcross genetics with a sharp focus on EPDs, we’ve enhanced our cowherd to produce functional, powerful bulls. Whether you’re looking for calving ease, growth, curve benders, or herd bulls, we’ve got the right bulls to meet your needs.
As Willy Wonka once said, “Have you EVER had chocolate like this? You’ve NEVER had chocolate like this!” And I say to you—Have you EVER had a Dille bull like this? You’ve NEVER had a Dille bull like this!
The best part of the movie is the very end when Wonka reads a note left by his mother, wrapped in a chocolate bar with a golden ticket, which says: “The secret is… it’s not the chocolate that matters. It’s the people you share it with.” We are so grateful to share our bulls with you, but more importantly, we’re deeply thankful for the friendships we’ve built along the way.
Sincerely,
Jackson & Family

PIE GUIDANCE 209 SONS
This PIE Guidance 209 son has been on our radar from very early on, even before he was on the ground we were all talking about his projected EPD profile. All the way through the development process he has exceeded expectations, this true curve bender brings a top ranking BW EPD and a 68 pound birth weight indicating he is heifer safe. Studying his index ranking, he stands out in all the economically relevant traits and his pedigree includes plenty of household names in the Red Angus breed.
Over the years our program has grown and evolved to offer herdsire prospects like this at the front of our offering. M437 combines a negative BW epd with breed leading growth and carcass. That coupled with his stunning phenotype make him an ideal candidate for use on purebred females. From the ground up this 209 son is impressive, he’s great footed, bold centered and powerful up top. This is a great opportunity to get in early on a 209 son, he can take your program to a new level in a single generation.

• FOR REFERENCE ONLY
A few years ago we made the investment in 209 and to say we are satisfied with his production would be a major understatement. This EGL Guidance 9117 son and exceeded expectation at every turn. We used him across the board and saw an improvement in growth, carcass and index values. When we think about offering sons that generate real value for our customers, we see him as a herd sire we will continue to use for years to come!

• FOR REFERENCE ONLY
292 is a rising star here at Dille Red Angus and for good reason. His rookie calf crop was small but the results led up to use him heavily in the 2024 breeding season and again this year. Sired by the highly sought after Bieber CL Stockmarket E119, he offers big time index figures, elite growth at WW/ YW and top ranking carcass EPD’s. If you are looking for the next chapter of the Dille program then don’t look past this sire group, his influence moving forward will only grow here in Buhl, Idaho!
