This duo of breeding programs offer the industry what is one of, if not, the best group of Fullblood Simmental bulls that annually sell! In that, there are more options to design a full shopping list here than at most places and probably have your dollars go further! The Satchwell Families’ Virginia Ranch combine good people with good cattle, which is a humble understatement. After viewing the bull pen, in its large open area, I would say this is probably the most uniform group I’ve ever seen at the Cremona ranch. The herd bull philosophy used in designing the program certainly validates itself once again with this consistency. Speaking of which, the “Voltage” sons add a new exciting sire group. “Voltage” has the distinction of being the “other bull in the ring” with the record setting “Rumble” the day that electric moment of price discovery happened and was a $50K touch himself! Once again, the sons of “Synergy”, etc. will be candidates for that aforementioned list. An interesting individual that should be mentioned is a son of “Radison”, out of an Okofleck first calver that really captures the concept of a Fullblood calving ease sire that still gives you something at the end of the day. He is handsome! Another individual, that most people wouldn’t just think to consider when looking for a black bull, is in the Virginia bull pen! He’s deep, thick and hairy, and may land in the budget! RUMBLE - Round 2! Courtesy of Skywest! If you like good cattle, regardless of your breed preference, this needs a look-see! This upcoming breed legend, referring to “Rumble” of course, whom holds the record of the highest selling bull in history in Canada, has “proven his salt” with his first calf crop. Skywest are one of primary owners of him. The sons are big, rugged and all the other great adjectives we can use, and in several cases, polled heads are in the bonus package. This bullpen is so deep on quality, meaning it’s not all just about one sire group, candidates by “Landmark” and “Swagger” deserve to share the newly constructed spacious bull development pen at Skywest. Back to that “shopping list”, you’ll be able to add several here, and from people who are as good as they come! These two breeding programs also offer a set of registered heifers in tow that will fit in to most breeding programs. We would love to chat with you about this sale and assist you with your buying requirements, whether you are attending in person, or you choose to utilize our reputable, conflict-free absentee buyer services, it’s free and it’s as simple as dialing any of cell phones listed. Come early and enjoy a steak courtesy of the Satchwells and Edwards! Stay after for additional hospitality too! See you in Innisfail,
Jaymes E. (Jay) Good

Welcome from Virginia Ranch
Virginia Ranch extends a warm welcome to our Annual Bull Sale. The name is rebranded this year from the former Spectrum Bull sale. We are proud to be selling alongside our fellow consignor Skywest Simmentals. Skywest acquired a large group of our cow herd base this past December and we thank them for this investment in what has been our life’s work over the past almost 40 years. [It was time to slow down a bit on the Seedstock production side of things]. Once again we feel our offering is strong and you can likely find a bull that will do a fine job in your herd. Over the years we have culled our cow herd hard; striving to have factories (mama cows) with sound, functional udders, good feet and legs and nice dispositions – all positive traits that should be passed on through their progeny. We are pleased to offer a select group of open heifers as well. All of our offering are managed on a total herd health program, and all vaccinations are up to date. Please keep an eye out on the Transcon website www.transconlivestock.com as videos will be available on all lots a couple of weeks prior to sale day. We hope if you are able and find yourself in our neck of the woods you will stop in to see the fellas and gals in their home environment – we always enjoy visiting with fellow cattle people. Should you not be available on sale day to attend, we hope you will participate online or give any of the Transcon Livestock fellows a call to be your confidential representative; we have worked with this team for over 3 decades and feel extremely confident with any of them. Innisfail Auction Mart team – The Daines’ family, are our hosts and we thank them for all they do to make each sale hospitable and successful.

Polled Full Fleckvieh. Non Dilutor. Our lead off bull is very hard to fault, he has the look and presence of a true herdsire. He is just 2 days shy of being a March 1st baby so thought it might be interesting to sell him as a developed two year old. He is not a fluke production, as his brothers have sold through this sales ring and have been high sellers. His full brothers Virginia Rip-Roaring sold to Clearwater Simmentals for $53,000 and Virginia Lombardi sold to Jamescreek Simmentals for $19,000; a maternal ½ Brother Virginia Getzlaff sold to Leewood Ranch for $16,000. In your search for a bull this year, please consider this 2 year old as he has the backing to be the fella to bring your program to the next level. Co-owned with Rand-Mar

Polled Full Fleckvieh. Non Dilutor. Stauffer is another outstanding individual. He possesses so much correctness in his makeup – a stout bull with a huge powerful hip and a superb haircoat. With this young bull you will indeed get the greatness that his sire Sibelle Synergy has brought to the industry; and I feel the best part is his dams sire the under-rated Virginia Marquee, who could very well be my favorite bull to have ever walked the pastures on Virginia Ranch. We have had a lot of great herdsires in our close to 40 years in this business. Stauffer has a ½ sister on his dams’ side that graced the Western Harvest sales ring this past fall and the astute breeder Ken Gilbert of Westgold Farms purchased her for $18,500.

Full Fleckvieh. Non Dilutor. Sibbald is very good. His mother was the high selling Bred Heifer in the 2014 Anchor D Pasture Treasures sale. She has produced a calf each and every year that was either in the keeper pen or was marketed in a purebred sale except in 2019 when she delivered a mixed set of twins. Sibbald’s maternal brother sold to Swantewitt / Sage Simmentals in our 2023 bull sale. Sibbald possesses power in his makeup; stout with a deep rib.

Polled Full Fleckvieh. Non Dilutor. Stavely was the heaviest bull calf on August 30th @ 960 lbs, with NO CREEP feed. His mother Parview Ms Paris was a $3000 bred heifer that has done it all. She has put 3 sons into purebred breeder herds. Her daughter Virginia Destiny 804F produced a $30,000 bred female who was purchased by Beechinor Bros in the 2021 Western Harvest sale and then did it again, producing another that sold to Rand Mar at the 2022 WH sale. We liked Destiny 804F enough to flush her last spring and note we don’t just flush any female! Stavely has a lot of style, is well-muscled with a ton of length and an added bonus he is polled.

So during pasture tours he kind of had that calf look when comparing him to the other bulls. In January 2024 TobyKeith started to make his move; he is a deep, cherry red hair-coated fella. He has a very nice polled narrow head, with smooth, smooth shoulders. Very decent Calving Ease EPD #’s and an adj. weaning weight of 857lb will make people take note of him come sale day.

His maternal brother was the best bull in the pen last year and I believe would have definitely been our high seller until he stifled himself and never got over it!

We sold a daughter in the 2023 Western Harvest sale to J Bar Simmentals, and she has now produced this great Marquee son for this sale.

Homo Polled. Non Dilutor. Redcliffs’ grand-dam was my favorite cow on the place, and NO she is not a fullblood. She’s a blaze faced, polled ½ fleck, ½ red purebred that in my opinion was the perfect cow. She is gone now but I know Redcliff’s mother is going to take her place. We sold a maternal brother to Joe Cech in 2022, and a maternal sister to Kruger Farms in this sale last year. Take note of Redcliff’s 77 lb birthweight.

Welcome from Skywest Simmentals On behalf of everyone here at Skywest Simmentals we would like to welcome you to the Virginia Ranch / Skywest Simmentals Bull and Female Sale at the Innisfail Auction Mart on Monday March 4. The Daines Family has hosted the Bull Spectrum Sale for the past few years, and we are excited to continue the tradition with the newly branded sale for years to come at this wonderful venue. There’s no better place to be than in Innisfail when the stands are full of eager cattlemen and woman, filling the air with excitement while top quality cattle cross the sale ring. The commercial industry prices are still at an all-time high and we feel they will be around for years to come as cattle numbers are down due to some recent drier summers and the demand for Canadian beef continues to grow. As well as seeing all the great young breeders that continue to push this breed ahead makes for exciting times in the Simmental industry. This year we strongly believe that this is the best set of bulls we have ever had on offer and are confident that you will find a bull that will work well in your herd. The last couple of years we have focused on acquiring top herd sires that will provide the customers the bulls they are looking for and continue to push our program ahead. “Rumble” has had some lofty expectations to meet ever since his sale day and let us tell you, he has not only met them but exceeding them in every way! His quality of bulls which will be seen this spring on offer for the first time are incredible, and the heifers at home in the pen are equally as good. We are currently calving his second calf crop and they get better and better every day. Also on offer are the first bulls from SBV Landmark 548J who we own with 619 Land & Cattle and Black Gold Driller 109J who have done an outstanding job in their first year for us. We know his calves will serve any herd well! 2023 was a big year for the Skywest program as Virginia Ranch / Satchwell family made the incredibly tough decision to slow down a little and cut back on some of the work to enjoy time with the family by offering us the opportunity to incorporate a large portion of their herd into ours. We have always looked up to Harry and Michelle for guidance and mentorship as they have been an integral part of the success of the Fleckvieh breed for almost 40 years. We are very aware of the high-quality standard that the VIRS tattoo carries with it and look forward to continuing on the legacy that has been built by this incredible cowherd for years to come. We know how passionate Harry and Michelle are about their cow herd and they will forever have an open invitation to visit them anytime of the year. (Including calving time if you’re bored Harry). We would also like to say Thank you to the Transcon Livestock Team for the professional job they do, whether its bull sale season or heifer sale season. Your commitment to us is appreciated and look forward to many more years ahead. If you have any questions on any of the bulls feel free to reach out to us or stop by the farm anytime for a tour. We would be happy to have you. Sincerely, The Edwards Family

Non Dilutor Rampage without question has been a highlight of the bullpen and quite possibly the best bull we have ever produced. Ever since his early days we knew Rampage was something special and of the many pasture tours that seen him this year, everyone agreed. His impressive length, big hip and soft sided led to a weaning weight of 1135 lbs. His dam SBV Kaluhua 240E produced one of our high selling bulls last year going to the great Mullen Land & Cattle herd in Strathmore. This cow is quickly forming her own legacy here on the farm. With this being our first Rumble 62H calf crop, we could not be more excited for the impact he will have on our herd for years to come and in the Fleckvieh breed. We would like to retain 50 straws of in-herd use semen and will work with the new owner on drawing bull.

Non Dilutor SBV Merlot 669H has been one of our favorites to come over from Lenny’s herd as she is one of the most eye appealing cows in our herd. She is what you want all your fleck cows to look like, long, deep sided, dark pigmentation with a big barrel. She has spoiled us with her first few calves as her bull calf last year sold to Virginia Ranch and we all know Harry’s keen eye for herd sires so that tells you something. Well 669H/Rumble combination worked well as the proof is in “Rizzo”. He’s got the color, the heavy hair, depth, moderate birth weight and a nice smooth polled head. What more could you ask for!

Non Dilutor R’N’R is a bull we have been excited to write his footnotes on all summer long as he grew and developed into one heck of a bull. The pedigree is stacked with Rumble, Inscription, Legend, Exclusive as well as his young dam is a cow we give a little more thought on when choosing her breeding plan. She has delivered with every bull we put her so far and her calves have been incredibly consistent as her bull calf from last year sold to Double G Simmentals in Saskatchewan. R’N’R is also carrying the polled gene from Rumble, dark cherry red, muscled up and can walk with the best of them. This young future herd sire could work on a broad range of cows that will only add value to the herd. Take a long look at this guy..

Non Dilutor Roman has quickly become one of the favorites from the Rumble line of bulls this year. He’s incredibly sound, correct and we can honestly say there isn’t anything that we would want to change about him. He just has the herd bull look with his dark pigmentation, heavy hair coat, a smooth flat topline and muscle in all the right places. ‘Roman” could just be the real deal for a lot of years. His young dam SBV MS Beat 804G is the type of cow we wish we had a 100 of so its safe to say this won’t be the last time you hear of her.

Non Dilutor Rocko could be the sleeper of his sire group as he is a little more moderate when standing up with his powerful group of brothers. These rumble calves can be picked out of our pen of bulls just by there style and builds. Consistency is proving to be trait of Rumble whether it is bulls or heifers. Which makes us extremely excited. “Rocko” has the haircoat, colour, as well as the muscle development while being able to walk with the best of them.

Non Dilutor Reble is another one of the big Rumble boys that weaned off at 956 lbs this year, which was our heaviest set of bulls to date, and to say that our mostly new herd sire’s lineup and growing cow herd crushed it would be an understatement. Amongst all the tours this summer the common theme was the size and power, which we always like to hear the feedback good or bad, but the most intriguing comments were about the consistency amongst the whole group. That’s when you know the entire herd is towing the line. “Reble” is a prime example of that when the mating clicks, the pastures continue to produce, that these cows will bring the big boy’s home in the fall.

Non Dilutor Ringo is an absolute tank. This bull is super stout, big broad topped and incredibly long with excellent muscle development. Oh yes and I forgot to mention that he weaned off at 1025 lbs. We can’t give all the credit to Rumble for producing another great one for us as Ringo’s dam is an excellent cow we had purchased from Eagle Ridge Simmentals as a heifer. She’s big barreled, dark red and is obviously a cow we think very highly of, which is why she was bred back the same way this year. “Ringo” is the complete package with that kind of power and being polled should spark some interest in a lot of herds.

Non Dilutor Renegade is another good polled Rumble son that was a promising calf when he went to pasture and continued to grow and develop all summer long which resulted to be one of the bigger bulls at weaning time. The common theme with these Rumble calves is the steady growth. “Renegade’s” mom is another good young cow which has some different bloodlines that are stacked with power. We had received her in the package from Lenny that have done very well here.

Non Dilutor Ranger like a few of his brothers didn’t want to be left out of the heavy weight club so he pushed down the scales of 1015 lbs come weaning day. When you look at “Ranger” you have to admire his depth and capacity as well as sheer length which Rumble puts into his bull calves that contribute to the heavy weights. And no this isn’t just his bull calves, he knows how to put it into his heifer calves as well which will be obvious when they start hitting the sale rings. “Ranger” like his brothers “Rampage” and “Ringo” know they are the bosses of the pen and strut around like they own the place.

Non Dilutor Lorenzo is the direct result of putting “Driller” and his moderate birth weight onto BEE MS Suzie 15H who is turning into a powerful young cow that we selected from Beechinor Bros Simmentals at the Western Harvest Sale. When we spoke to John before purchasing her, he had told us that she could be a sleeper in the sale, but she will give you an excellent calf every time. Well as much as we hate to admit it… John was RIGHT Again… He explained what the Suzie cow family has done in his herd and evidence is shown here that Suzie 15H is starting her own story here for us. “Lorenzo” is the real deal if you’re looking for performance, with tons of flesh and hair, backed by non-other than the Suzie cow family.

Non Dilutor Lennon is a more moderate bull from a young cow we had purchased out of the Maxwell Simmentals program. He does have the wide top, deep ribbed and tons of hair while showing some excellent muscle development through his hips. This is the type of bull we think would shine on a set of young cows that could use some depth and hair put on them. His sire “Black Gold Driller” has been a breeding rockstar for us as he has shown to cover his group of girls mostly on the first cycle. He does a lot of walking and making sure his ladies are looked after and we see those same traits and capabilities in “Lennon.”

Non Dilutor Louie was one of those bulls we liked a lot as a calf and from a great young Duramax cow, and its no lie we have a soft spot for the Duramax bloodline for what he has done to our program in its early years. But “Louie” checked all the boxes with his flashy haircoat, dark pigment and smooth build. We kept checking up on him all summer long in the pasture and every time we seen him, he steadily got better and better and better. He’s always had the docile personality and flashy looks, but once you look past that he’s a pretty correct bull that could sire you some ripper heifers.

Non Dilutor Diablo is a bull we liked quite a bit out of another new herdsire Black Gold Driller 109J as this is his first calf crop and also exceeded our expectations. When we toured the bull pen at Black Gold, we were impressed by how well Driller could travel with a great set of feet. Driller is extremely long and smooth shouldered which is why we bred the entire group of 1st calvers to him and the result is here. He installs excellent hair colour, length with a moderate build and bulls that can flat out cover ground. Take a serious look at these Driller sons.

Non Dilutor Legend is another excellent “Driller” son out of the young” IPU Zegetta 2H” cow that we had purchased from the Labbate Simmentals Program. Zegetta 2H has done incredibly well for us since she arrived. Her first calf was a Fairview Philosophy heifer that recently sold to JNR Simmentals for $16,000 in the Western Harvest sale, now Legend 2L is her second calf who we are excited for as well, and while we write these foot notes today, she just gave us an excellent looking polled “Rumble” heifer calf. Also if you’re a pedigree buff than you will appreciate “Legend’s” family tree with Anchor T Legend, Anchor D Raptor, Dirty harry 25Z, Virginia Jane West and Black Gold Whisper 48E. This young bull has all the credentials to be a future herd sire for a long time.

Non Dilutor During the fall heifer sale season we try to find a few new heifers that could add some power and easy fleshing ability into our herd which make for great bull producing females. Well when we walked through the pasture at Virginia Ranch looking at the sale heifers, we identified a few that we needed to have. Well come sale day we were fortunate to select 821F which is a big powerful crude daughter and since we got her home, she has done just that. “Lucifer” is exactly what we were wanting more of in our bull pen. Big soggy fellas with lots of hair and flesh that can cover some ground and go to work on a group of cows. By adding “Landmark” to this guy’s make up sheet is a recipe for success. With today’s markets of heavy calves ringing the bells time and time again, these are the kinds of bulls that help push the scale down.

Lincoln is one of the more popular bulls in the pen all year long during the tours. Mainly because he is the puppy dog of the group. He meets you at the gate every morning for his scratches and attention. Every time you turn around, he’s right there in your back pocket. Connor has even been perched up on him a few times. If you’re looking for a super quiet, big, framed bull with incredible length than give Lincoln a look, or even a scratch which he would prefer.

Levi is one flashy dude that really turned it on as of late. He was a bull that intrigued us early on as having all the tools, so if he could just put them all together, he would have some serious potential. Well needless to say he did just that. After weaning he continued to grow and fill out with his dark hair coat, he looks the part as he’s strutting around the bull pen. He’s a smooth made with incredible length. I know I speak about the length of these bulls a lot but the new herdsires have really crushed it with this group. The length and depth help put pounds on those calves which every cattleman is asking for.

Non Dilutor Sampsonite is another “Swagger” son with lots of hair and a little extra frame and stretch to him which is a common theme amongst this “Swagger” group of calves. They are just easy doing bulls that would go out and put heavy steers in your pen year after year. “Sampsonite” also comes from a young Kananaski cow that we had purchased from Mark Land & Cattle a few years back who has done a fantastic job here.

Non Dilutor Lumbardi is one of the youngest bulls in the pen with his Feb 15th birth date but that didn’t stop him from keeping up with his pen mates. This soggy, big, hipped bull comes from a real good, young Duramax cow with the Brock Xcellent cow behind her which has put many offspring through the sales for us. The guess work is already done with the right color, frame, and soundness for this guy to help bring you some heavy calves come fall time.

As much as this write up is about “Sammy,” it’s hard not to talk about his dam. Ricochet Coco 555C has been a pillar in our program for a number of years now, and every single year she brings us a big soggy bull calf that has all the tools. They are so consistent each and every time no matter who she is bred too. The buyers of her bulls are just as consistent as Mullen Land & Cattle have purchased her sons in consecutive years. When you sell your calves by the pounds than bulls like “Sammy” are the right choice.

Non Dilutor Wildcat is one bull we think highly of in this group and could be a legitimate heifer bull prospect. His “War Cry” genetics give him the docile attitude that makes him a dream to work with. Finding great heifer bulls is a never-ending chore, that’s why we feel like “Wildcat” will fit that need with his calving ease ability, easy fleshing and moderate, but still plenty of thickness to his calves. This is a bull we feel you will grow to appreciate more and more with each calf crop like we have with “War Cry.”

Wrangler is one of only two bulls from War Cry we have on offer this year but the quality is top notch. If you have seen in the Western Harvest and Bull Spectrum sales the last could years, these War Cry offspring have been highly sought after. There easy doing cattle that are always coloured up dark, excellent disposition and tons of depth which is hard to get from a lot of calving ease bulls. As “Wrangler” is off of a first calf heifer we couldn’t have been more pleased with the job this young Gudas heifer did.

Non Dilutor Supreme is an intriguing heifer bull prospect with a little different twist than the rest of our bull pen. His young dam Skywest Jingles is a Virginia Spartan daughter 530E who we used extensively in our heifer pen for a number of years with enormous success. He was a no miss calving ease bull that would put flesh and growth into his calves. So we wanted to Ai “Jingles” to Anchor “T” Supreme to produce another calving ease option which we feel was a success here with “Supreme 106L”. Heifer bulls are always hard to find, so we have taken the guess work out with this dark red, smooth shoulder bull that will calve like a dream in your heifer pen.

Non Dilutor Titan is the only Titanium son we have from a bred heifer that we purchased from Beechinor Bros in the Western Harvest sale. What a heck of a job she did with “Titan.” Anytime a heifer can raise a bull calf like him and wean off at over 900 lbs is a special cow in the making. Titan is a dark heavy haired bull with smooth shoulders for being a bull his size. He’s very well put together and built to last a lot of years.

Lacy comes from a nice young cow that was purchased as an open heifer from Black Gold Simmentals. The dam is a daughter of the great Kananaskis 947Z cow that has created a legacy in the Fleckvieh breed. Lacy is the only heifer we are selling this year from Black Gold Driller 109J’s first calf crop. “Driller” stamps his calves with style, hair color and length. This heifer could be a popular breeding piece in your herd for years to come.

Transcon Livestock Corp. reserves the right to require a certified cheque as settlement before releasing any sale cattle. Should any purchaser fail to settle for their purchase Transcon Livestock Corp. reserves full power to resell the animal to the best advantage either publicly or privately, without further notice. Any loss arising from such resale together with keep and all other expenses shall be payable by the defaulter. All settlements must be made with the clerks of the sale before any cattle will be released. Transcon Livestock Corp and/or the Auctioneer shall have the right to refuse bids from anyone who has a previous record of default in payment or who has not made proper credit clearance prior to the sale with the owner or Sale Managers. BID - No private sales will be allowed except as otherwise provided for in the terms and conditions. No by-bidding will be permitted. SALES TAXES – Applicable sales taxes will be charged on semen, embryos, and trucking fees (if listed), respective to the home province of the buyer, not the seller. DISPUTES - In cases of disputes, bidding will be reopened between the parties involved. If no further bid is made the buyer will be the person from whom the auctioneer accepted the last bid. The auctioneer’s decision in such matters will be final. PURCHASER’S RISK - Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser as soon as sold. Animals will be cared for at the purchaser’s risk for a reasonable length of time. INSURANCE – Each animal becomes the risk of the purchaser at the time of sale and should be insured. Animals returning to the seller’s farm must be insured. US BUYERS – There is an additional charge (approximately $300.00 US dollars) that will be applied to each animal purchased. This covers documentation, vet inspections/ testing required to export. This cost does not include transportation or brokerage which is the responsibility of the buyer. CATTLE PICTURES AND INFORMATION PROVIDED - The images in this catalogue are believed to be accurate representations of the individual animals and the information contained in this catalogue is provided by the seller and believed to be true and accurate. Transcon Livestock Corp. and catalogue designers/ producers assume no responsibility if the images and/or information as received have been altered or is inaccurate.

Purchasers are requested to furnish shipping instructions when making settlement. BREEDERS GUARANTEE As per applicable Canadian Breed Association Breeding Guarantee guidelines. Copies are available at the sale settlement desk to be picked up by the buyer at any time. In no event shall the seller be responsible for reimbursing more than the purchase price. EXCEPTION TO GUARANTEE - In cases where the animal is subjected to any hormonal or surgical reproduction techniques after the sale, the guarantee shall be null and void. HEALTH - It is the buyer’s responsibility to determine health requirements for importing any animal into his province or state.

EMBRYO & SEMEN – Full settlement must be made before release is done and shipping arrangements should be done within 30 days of the sale unless arrangements made between buyer and seller prior to the sale. Shipping arrangements and costs are the expense of the purchaser once release has been given.

RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS - The above terms and conditions of the sale shall constitute a contract between the buyer and the seller and be equally binding to both.
