Benchmark Annual Bull Sale It is an honor to welcome everyone to the 6th annual Benchmark Bull sale. Thank-you to our many customers that have supported us for these sales and the many years previous, you are the reason we enjoy this business so much! The last year has been quite a ride in the cattle business, and with more pressure on the price this past fall it sure paid to have the heavy weight, high quality Charolais sired calves, quite often the 500 & 700 weight calves were bringing the same price per pound which meant much more $$ for the heavy calves This year’s pen of bulls is most certainly our strongest offering yet. It offers a wide range of bulls with different genetics from proven low birth weights to use on heifers, as well as bulls that will add pay weight to any type of cow herd and also bulls that will produce herd building females that will last a long time! The bulls have been developed with health and longevity at top of mind. They are fed free choice 1st cut baleage along with a limited amount of Masterfeeds bull-plex pellets which are designed to put on muscle and develop frame while keeping bulls from getting over conditioned. They also have a large exercise paddock where they spend the majority of their time, this helps to keep them athletic, free moving and ready to breed cows. Have a look through the catalogue and please feel free to contact Keith or Kurtis with any questions. The bulls were pictured mid-January and change quickly at this stage so please stop by the farm in Foresters Falls and have a walk through them and see some of their mothers as well. Videos will also be available by mid-February at Liveauctions.TV We look forward to seeing everyone on March 11th, even if you don’t need a bull this year please join us for complimentary beef on a bun lunch and have a visit. - The Black’s We at Kirlene Cattle would like to welcome you to the 6th annual Benchmark Bull sale. It is again, with anticipated excitement that we bring to you bulls from our breeding program. We have managed to come thru the drought of 2016 with bulls that have continued to gain and prove their genetic potential. Bulls sired from Ledger, Fargo, Dockage, Dock N Roll and Waters Edge( full brother to Turton). Study the catalog, give us a call or better yet come on down to Brighton and pay us a visit, to look at your next herd sire. We will be able to guide you thru the bulls whether in person, on the phone or on sale day. We would also recommend that you like us on Facebook as we will post regular updates with comments on each bull. Remember at Kirlene Cattle there are always “Endless Options and Endless Possibilities” We are extra excited this year, as on Feb 11, our youngest daughter Angela is getting married to Ryan Mcleod. So by the time the sale takes place, we can officially introduce to you Mr and Mrs Ryan Mcleod as the newest members to the Kirlene Cattle family. We look forward to meeting you at the Renfrew Pontiac Livestock sale barn in Cobden Ontario. Kirby & Arlene Hakkesteegt Bryce & Dana Hakkesteegt and Family Ryan & Angela Mcleod The Kirlene Cattle Family

Something to Think About:
Some of the bulls have higher a birthweight but they also come from our larger cows and they have no problem calving them. Remember that a cow should be able to calve 7% of her body weight so for a 1500 lb cow that is 105lbs. The majority of our cows would be 1500-1700lbs. Also for every 5lbs of birth weight that you give up you are potentially giving up 30-50lbs of weaning weight!!
