Thanks to all of the bidders and buyers throughout the years!
We appreciate the support you have shown for our programs!
Welcome back to the 2024 Season Wrap-Up Sale! Isn’t it an exciting time to be in the cattle industry?! We cannot believe we have been in the Purebred Simmental Industry for over a decade and this is already the fourth year we have been bringing two-year-old bulls to this sale. Even though it pains Tom to part with any of our top-end females, we have added 3 Breds and 5 Replacements to the mix this year. Over the years we have worked hard to build our genetic diversity and at creating animals we find exceptional. The focus for the 2022 breeding season surrounded diversified AI sires that work for our herd genetics and produced some exceptional progeny from embryo implants. Our very own TCM Jenner 18J was used post-AI as a clean up and MAN did that not disappoint. Jenner sired 3 of the 5 replacement heifers we have on offer. These replacements were TOP of the pen and how exciting to find out, top of the pen, turned out to be our very own home-grown genetics.
This Spring we purchased THREE new walking herd sires which will have calves hitting the ground here in the New Year. We were calculated in what we were looking for in our walking herd sires and are looking forward to their future within Tri-Star Cattle Co. One of those purchase’s was a heifer bull from Wheatland. Wheatland LER 3132L was used to breed Lots 21-23. We are as excited as you to see what that brings in a few short weeks.
Marchant Farms (Tom’s Parents) has commercial bred heifers on offer this year as well; 6 reds and 6 blacks available. Groupings will be made up into packages of three. We run our cattle herd fluently together, with majority Simmental influence. These heifers have been bred by a calving ease Black Angus Bull from Madsen Angus, due to start calving January 10, 2025.
If you have any questions, or would like to come view the bulls and heifers prior to the sale please, feel free to contact Tom. Videos are available on the Transcon website or we can send them directly to you as well.
See you on sale day!

Non-Diluter. Homo Polled. The breeding background in this bull is as solid as they come. His granddam we bought at Pembina Triangle all the way back in 2014. Her bull calf was the lead off bull at Transcon’s Cattle Country Bull sale in 2017. Whenever BERTS Amber 23A is in the breeding background, we know we are going to have a happy customer. BUT the confidence doesn’t end there, add in AI sire SKORS Braveheart for the complete package.
All Bulls have been given three doses or Pfizer Gold One Shot, two doses of Fermicon 7/Somnugen, two doses of Tazvax 8, two doses of Fusogard, as well as pour on Ivermectin. Breeding Soundness Evaluation have been done within 30 days of the sale and these bulls are ready to be insured!

A bull that will go out and cover cows, no nonsense. Solid footed, moves extremely well. Just turn him out and watch him go to work. With a milk number in the THIRTIES he will be adding quality heifers to your herd with that maternal trait, to producers those thick strong calves season after season.

Non-Diluter. Homo Polled. This bull’s Dam has produced for us year after year! He is Sired by our herd bull BERTS Gustavo, a direct son of Red Mountain himself; you are getting tried and true genetics that will no longer be available at any future sales. This is the last year we had Gustavo walking our purebred herd. His dependable genetics, great temperament, super dark hair coat and well muscled traits remain in the females he has left for us. Get this guy in your herd while you still can!!! Check out his Maternal Sister, Lot 25.
Here are some “take-note” flush brothers from embryos we bought at the New Years Resolutions Sale in 2022. They come from one of Marlin’s last great Red Bulls to sell before his dispersal, R Plus Reddington. I talked to Matt Criddle the day of that sale and he had nothing but great things to say about this bull, who led off the sale and commanded 161,000 that day. So, when we had the opportunity to purchase genetics from him, we jumped at the chance, especially when he was paired to such a great up-and-coming cow like Crossroads Frankie 68F. She was the pick of the 2018 Calf Crop from Crossroads. We Ended up with 3 bulls out of 5 embryos and they have all matured into powerful 2yr olds. They are all very consistent in their make up; very good footed, lots of bone, loose made and move very well. Make sure you check out those videos to see for yourself, or better yet, come visit us at the farm. All embryo bulls have been 100K.

The more I do these write ups, the more and more I appreciate the soundness Southern Comfort is adding to these animals. This Bull is smooth, flat topped and moves like a beast. Top it off with a well-rounded set of EPD’s to bring value to any herd he enters.

This heifer mom has got it going on! Look at this guy, I don’t think you could get him any darker. He has great muscle expression and dimension. He has consistent, No Miss breeding, back in his pedigree. Look to him to consistently throw dark red, well muscled, heavy steer calves and great footed replacement heifers.

His mother has been a great cow for us, with great temperament and consistently producing top end animals. He boasts a dark red coat, a defining factor of his Sire, BERTS Gustavo 8G, and this is the last year we will have progeny from him. Don’t miss out!

A solid bull right here, coloured right with a strong muscling, but that’s the norm off these Gustavo calves. He just wouldn’t take that one extra step at picture time, so be sure to check out his video! He has a lot to offer!

Game Face did it again! I really like his full body and added muscle, which seems to be the norm we are seeing in our Game Face calves. Our oldest son brought a Game Face heifer for his first year of 4H this year and came home with all the ribbons! But this guy’s genetics are so much more diverse than that, coming from a strong cow with excellent genetic background from a KOP Superstar Mom and reliable Silver Lake Simmental Sire.
Non-Diluter. Hetero Polled.
This bull brings performance with the right amount of calving ease. His early gestation at 270 days doesn’t show any effect at weaning time, weighing in at over 800lbs with the rest of them.

This bull we were really excited about! His genetic background is solid with a set of EPD’s to increase the excitement. Unfortunately, his Dam got very ill in pasture and his weaning weight reflects that. However, the maturity has been an exceptional growth to witness. If he doesn’t make it into any of your herds, he will have a long future in ours.

If you are looking for longevity, along with performance, this is the heifer for you. Her Granddam, IPU 250A Horizon, is still in production today on our farm and just weaned her 10th calf off this fall at 930lbs! Its progeny like this that pays for themselves over and over again! Whether that’s pounds on you animals when you sell, or in the quality and longevity of the offspring they leave behind in our pens.

We were so struck by the power and presence of this heifers Dam, CrossRoads Frankie 68F, that we decided to purchase more embryos off her from the same New Years Resolution Sale that resulted in the progeny in Lots 4-6. However, this time the mating was to SVS Rancher. We had an opportunity to secure semen from SVS Tycoon early in his career and we really like his calves, as did most of the industry. So, we figured Rancher was the evolutionary next step, and I think the progeny that sold this spring off of him proves that, with many of his sons leading off bull sales all over the country. Rancher breeds PERFORMANCE. Ms. Frankie 66L has demanded attention from the start and the continued glow-up doesn’t fail to impress. She is wide topped, smooth made, good footed and swagger to boot.
Exposed to Wheatland Bull 3132L - April 1 - June 15, 2024
Non-Diluter. Homo Polled. This beauty’s breeding background is full of excitement. A consistency in KOP genetics that run deep on the Dam’s side, mixed with R Plus breeding and paired with a Boundary Enticer Sire. She is deep, dark and chrome.

Non-Diluter. Homo Polled. Isn’t she pretty!!!
This calf’s Dam is one of our favourites, with genes pulling from a powerhouse cow we bought from KOP’s dispersal in 2013. A gift that just keeps giving!! The past decade we have spent focusing on building a performance herd and this little lady is every essence of what we have hoped to create. Smooth, loose, POWER! Her EPD’s reflect everything we are striving for. Every single one of these replacement heifers are off
Non-Diluter. Homo Polled. She got it from her mama. This heifer is off of a no miss cow for us. This full-bodied replacement heifer weaned off at OVER 900lbs, with another set of performance EPD’s to support what your eyes were already telling you. We all need ALL of our heifers to do what she does!

Polled, Full Fleckvieh.
A polled, Full Fleckvieh, cherry red heifer that is bold and robust in her rib shape, jam packed with muscle and style. She has a pedigree built on success, which is why the attractiveness and completeness she displays is no surprise to us. This is a heifer who will make an excellent brood cow, just like her grand-dam. Her mother is shaping up to be an outstanding female that I plan to flush in the future. Lyra’s 2024 maternal sister is staying in the keeper pen, so take advantage. Her due date is January 12th.
Exposed to Fairview Motion 103K March 24th to June 7th. Observed bred April 2nd.
Polled, Full Fleckvieh.
A goggle eyed, thick topped, docile heifer who moves fluidly and carries natural thickness throughout. She is moderate sized and seems to flesh very easy. Her young dam is shaping up to be one of our top cows, pictured here is her first heifer selling to Crooked Creek Farms in last years sale and another heifer weaned this fall that will also be at the top of her class. It’s hard to part these polled flecks but also exciting to see what they can do for their new owner as well. Her due date is January 14th.

Full Fleckvieh.
Lava comes to you with a heavy hitting pedigree. Her sire Avenger is our home grown bull out of Gibbons Evy, a cow that has done a lot of good for Sydney. Her dam is a really powerful Coda daughter that has raised good progeny both male and female. Since two of her daughters have already been retained in our herd we offer up this thick deep bodied heifer. Her due date is January 27th.
Exposed to Fairview Motion 103K March 24th to June 7th. Observed bred April 17th.
A structurally sound female with the ideal hip and hind leg construction. She has more than enough width, length and muscle, but is feminine and attractively balanced with a sweet disposition. Her impressive overall conformation and temperament should make her into an impressive cow. With this combination of characteristics she should thrive in any breeding program and produce offspring that are both high-quality and easy to handle. Her due date is January 31st.
Exposed to Fairview Motion 103K March 24th to June 7th. Observed bred April 21st.
This moderate framed, long bodied, top end replacement female has momma cow written all over her. Excellent structure on a balanced set of feet and legs with a calm demeanour. Her mother is proving her worth as she has one of the top bulls in the bull pen for next spring. Having bulls like Sochi and Liner in her pedigree take all the guess work away, this girl will produce the right kind for her new owner. Her due date is January 21st.
Exposed to Fairview Motion 103K March 24th to June 7th. Observed bred April 11th.
Here’s a black female with an outcross pedigree having two shots of fleck back to back. Powerful and pretty, yet strong and balanced. She carries capacity through her middle with ample muscle shape when viewed from behind. Comes with a little extra age at calving time which should be a benefit for her new owner. This is a heifer who should’ve been in the keeper pen but we needed numbers for the sale, so my loss is your gain. Unobserved breeding but in vets opinion she is safe for January calving.
Exposed to Fairview Motion 103K March 24th to June 7th.
A complete and functional baldie heifer that comes with lots of volume and rib. She is stout in her chest, adequate boned on a good set of feet. She has nice teat size and placement, good docility and comes from easy keeping, fleshy females, she should be no exception. I’d expect her to produce those stand-out black baldie calves, making her a valuable addition to any herd looking to enhance their genetic potential.
