Yearling Bulls

Reference Sire - WCR Commissioner 593P

WCR Commissioner is a new sire for us this year. The results are as expected, he sired bulls just as I had hoped he would. They calve light and continue to have rapid growth. They are easy to find in the pen with their eye appeal. I think they will sire an amazing set of feeder calves.

Reference Sire

This is Grizzly’s third year of bulls sired by him here at Footprint. I love the hair and docility he throws in all his progeny. Grizzly sired sons will fit a wide range of needs of the commercial cattlemen. They have the ability to have moderate birth weights, but really push down the scales at weaning time and at yearling weigh in. I bought Grizz because I felt he would be a great option for guys wanting a little more calf than what they would get from a heifer bull type. I am really excited with Grizzly’s addition to our bull battery and expect great things from both his sons and daughters.

Reference Sire - Main Lone Ranger 13D

Lone Ranger is our only red factor herd sire. He is homo polled and homo red. I always liked his sire and felt Lone Ranger would mirror his father. I liked him and his mother so much I bought them both. His mother is still here producing year in and year out. The Lone Ranger sons will not only offer you color but they will stretch out your calves as he is as long as you can find. He has a big hip and a wide top with great feet!

Reference Sire - War Lord 2003F

The new kid on the block so to speak. I selected Warlord out of 1200 bulls at De Bruyckers in Montana, and was extremely excited to be able to have the winning bid on him. Warlord was selected to lower birthweight, add hip and lower quarter. While maintaining growth and a lots of hair. It didn’t hurt he followed me around the pen sniffing my hand either. Warlord is tested homo polled, making all his offspring polled as well. His dam was a beautiful hardworking young cow. With great feet and udder. I’m really excited about the future of Warlord and his future impact on our herd.

Yearling Bulls

New sire this year, 2135 is a power bull. Look to his sons to offer performance and weight to your calf crop. He himself is a massive bull with loads of body capacity, and muscle. He is homo polled so look for his sons to take away dehorning at branding time of you select a son who is also homo polled.

Reference Sire - Footprint’s Crimson Tide 15G

Crimson Tide sold this very sale to Hopewell, and June Rose Charolais. He is a bull I still admire and will continue to use. He is quiet in nature, sound made, with lots of hair and loads of natural muscle. He also is Homo polled.

About Our Operation

For anyone new to our operation, we run two totally separate cowherds. One herd calves in January and February, producing our yearling bulls, while the other calves in April and May producing the two-yearold bulls. We feel we are unique in this approach in terms of offering two options to you, the buyer. None of our bulls have been previously offered for sale – which means we don’t hold over a yearling bull that didn’t sell for whatever reason to try and sell him to you as a two-year-old. The yearling bulls are weaned in early fall and fed a high fiber based TMR ration. The two-year-old bulls stay out grazing as long as the grass will hold, and are then fed a high fiber TMR ration as well. Our rations are formulated with slow, healthy growth of maturity at the forefront. A high fiber based TMR ration helps ensure that these bulls have been developed to last while out in the breeding pastures, and for many years to come.
