It is our pleasure to present our 2020 bull offering. We feel our bulls are consistent in type and there is really something for everyone in our offering. We have been raising Black Angus cattle for four generations and we stand behind the cow families and herd bulls that have worked for us for generations. Hard culling with a focus on good feet, good udders, calving ease, performance, and disposition have resulted in our cow herd today. Our bulls are raised to have longevity and be productive for the commercial and purebred cattlemen.
We sincerely thank those who have supported our program to this point and our future supporters. Please feel free to contact any of us or the sales staff to assist you with your bull selection. We invite you to stop in and view the bulls at Lacombe, Alberta anytime and please feel free to call, text or email us with any questions!

This direct son of Resource was our top pick of all the bulls selling in Canada in 2016 and was the high selling bull from Little Valley Angus. He is a high performing, easy fleshing, and structurally correct sire. He has added muscle dimension, improved foot quality, added fleshing ability and increased docility in our herd. His daughters are extremely easy doing and have dropped exceptional udders. He ranks in the top 1% of the breed for weaning weight and yearling weight EPD’s and the top 7% for total maternal. Herd sires from a proven performance bull like Resource 6C will pay when it comes time to sell calves. His sire, SAV Resource 1441 has quickly become one of the breeds most popular AI sires in North America and his sons and daughters are highly sought after.

We bought Freestyle as a yearling in 2017 from the Walgenbach’s at W Sunrise Angus. We have used the bull mainly on heifers for calving ease along with a select group of cows to produce calving ease bulls. He offers a tremendous birth to weaning to yearling weight spread and ranks in the top 15% for yearling weight EPD’s. Freestyle is a real easy calving bull who sires light calves who just explode after birth into easy fleshing, stout cattle. His sire is also a calving ease great from Chance Jackson who used him exclusively on heifers. W Sunrise bought his dam in the 2015 Harvest Classic Angus Sale and she is a daughter of the legendary HF TIGER 5T. Freestyle has easily out bred himself in his first two calf crops creating some of our most powerful bulls, easy calving heifer bulls and the flashiest replacement females. His average birth weight on male calves is 81lbs and 74lbs on females.

PATERNAL BROTHER AND SAME COW FAMILY– LINDON FREE STYLE 110F
Freestyle son out of one of our top Resource 6c daughters who would be a great calving ease option for heifers.

They worked hard on their first calves and dropped real correct udders. 111G comes from one of the most consistent and successful cow families on our farm – the Rosebud Cub’s.
