Offering 34 Two Yr Old Charolais Bulls
Welcome to Spruce View Charolais
We welcome everyone to our annual bull sale whether you are a previous buyer or a cattle person looking to cross over. Over the past number of years everyone has witnessed the Charolais advantage in the sale ring as well as the feedlot. The Charolais sired calves have proven that they can out perform other breeds in the feedlot spending less time on feed and finishing sooner yet grading just as well as others. The answer is simple, a Charolais bull is what you need to move your feeder pen up to the next level.
Offering 34 long yearling bulls coming from one of Albertas sole 2 yr. old bull suppliers. We do not sell any yearlings so you have a chance to select from our entire pen. Our bulls are fed to last, they are pasture grazed for the summer and fall then fed a corn/barley silage ration with 10# oats. We do not use protein supplements or processed feed. We offer calving ease bulls and performance bulls for cows that will cover more acres and head without loosing body condition with proper management.
WHITE, TAN, DARK REDS

In 2019 Bob Charolais and ourselves were looking for an outcross performance bull to add to our operations. Bob drove down to Rivers ,Manitoba to check out Defender and his dam. After Bob inspected them he called me to say that Defender had awesome feet ,thickness and depth and we should not let this one go by. In excitement , Bob said “you should see the feet and udder on the cow, they’re awesome!” This is the second crop of Defender sons to offer you and we are quite satisfied. They are thick, soggy ,and hairy and should add pounds to anyone’s program.
Sire of Lots 7, 11, 232, 323, 613 and 8140
Brimner Bull 212F is an outcross Red factor bull that we found in Saskatchewan to breed our Red factor females to. This long bodied muscled bull has worked very well for us ,giving us the color where needed as well as adding stretch and muscle to his progeny.
Sire of Lots 96, 101, 113, 117, 151, 333, 426, 706
HVA Force is a bull that we teamed up with BOB Charolais to own in 2019. This Homozygous polled Leptin TT bull is one that we felt we needed as an outcross to add natural muscle,hair,depth of body . We never expected him to be a calving ease bull but after calving out his first crop we found out that he checked that box as well.
Sire of Lot 277
We are super excited to be offering you another offering of JSR ESTRADA progeny. His progeny are all polled and bring home some of our top weaning weights in fall. Estrada has a bomb proof temperament with great feet and legs. Estrada is in the top 1% for weaning and yearling weights. For those cattlemen who study epd’s, have a look at these. You’ll be pretty hard pressed to find a better set of performance numbers.
Sire of Lots 3, 8, 112, 131, 200, 566 and 906
When looking for a red bull with a bit of a different pedigree for our program we teamed up with Philips Farms Charolais from Estevan when this soggy bugger came through the ring at the Wilgenbusch JWX bull sale. He surely has not disappointed us leaving solid red thick made hairy progeny.You’ll be very impressed with this years offering.
Sire of Lots 13, 72, 135, 203, 615 and 631

SVCH IRON MAN 113J
SCURRED - WHITE
Another nearly mid April Brimner bull out of a tan Pleasant Dawn cow that I bought from the Hatch Dispersal. His positive EPD’s should make him an above average female maker, as well as a bull who will sire above average weaning weights with calving ease. The Lorensons and the Jewell’s are running maternal siblings.
SVCH RED SOCKS 117J
DOUBLE RED - DEHORNED
Here’s a cherry red bull that I know many will have marked for his length of body, depth and great hair coat. This bull would work awesome on a herd of black cows.

all have great tidy smooth shoulders.

HOMO POLLED - HOMO RED
Here is one of our top JWX Govenor sons to sell this year.
135J’s dam is a long bodied attractive red factor cow that we purchased years back from Dang Charolais in Ontario. This is possibly one of the best red factor bulls that we’ve raised. He’s got a huge square top, tons of middle and a bomb proof disposition as well.

SVCH HIGH ROLLER 169J
SVCH JOHN CENA 200J
who has made tremendous females in many herds across the country. The Big Roller was a great outcross for us until we sold him to another great breeder.
SVCH GOVERNOR 203J
DOUBLE POLLED - TAN
A late April Governor son who should be a calving ease bull in my opinion. He’s got a great thick hair coat, nice small head with flat shoulders. In my opinion, he’s the right kind to turn into a pasture of yearling heifers.
SVCH TURBO 232J
Another Defender son carrying a splash of french genetics. This bull carries that extra hair coat which will sire those wooly calves that the feedlot buyers are looking for. 232D’s dam is a great milking deep bodied female who is a no miss female.
SVCH VISCOUNT 277J
A HVA Force son with a wide top and lots of hair that the feedlots are looking for in our northern climate. HVA Force calves very well, so well that my bull co-owner Bob Charolais used him on mature heifers. The Force calves have very gentle attutides which makes them a pleasure to handle. 277J’s dam is a great long deep bodied female that a rancher could build a herd around. Boyce Farms, Morson Farms, Cayenne Ranches and Boon Ranch have and are still used maternal siblings.

HOMO POLLED
Here’s a smooth made calving ease son off JSR Estrada 52E who has done great things for us as well as our partners Char Maine Ranching and Highway 21 Charolais. The Estradas come out easy and grow like weeds. Estrada is in the top 1% weaning and yearling numbers as well as top 20% milk. He is also in the top 1% percentile for ribeye and marbling. 566’s dam is an excellent milking, great footed, moderate frame no miss female. 566J could surely fit into a purebred herd on some mature heifers.
