It is with a great deal of enthusiasm we welcome you, our friends and valued customers, to

I

t is with much pride and enthusiasm that we welcome you to the Early Sunset Ranch 36th Annual Bull & Female Sale.

The fall of 2016 is one for the books; old man nature threw a sneaky pitch out, snow in October, combining in November pitched one back to her and made high moisture grain and siloed it, will make it a standard practice now.

Regarding the sale offering: it simply gets better, the bulls in both divisions are impressive, contain tried, true and new genetics. They are as always reared in a spacious area and fed a TMR Ration to promote soundness and longevity.

The female divisions are bright shining stars that will not disappoint. These heifers depending on ones desired will be of certain interest whether you’re a junior looking to fulfill your summer passion or seeking a front pasture female, they are here for your appraisal.

Do accept this as your personal invitation to be with us March 25. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the sale offering please call or perhaps come early and see it first hand.

Jim & Peggy JIM GRANT

Also we would like to welcome a familiar face and valued employee, Cory MacFarlane to the Early Sunset team. Cory (Charles) has vast knowledge of the program and will assist you if possible.

He can be reached at (306) 441-7932.

Early Sunset Bull Guarantee

OBI Welcome

O

Bull Development Program Bulls are developed on high roughage ration in large acres to ensure their freedom is not compromised result in sound herd bulls. Our goal is to engineer bulls that are athletic, sound, and ready to work in any commercial environment.

BI is once again pleased to be working with Jim & Peggy Grant from Early Sunset Ranch in their Annual Bull & Female Sale. The sale title is “Only The Good Ones Sell” and it is true at their place and no exception this year and this is the 36th Sale they are hosting.

The Angus bulls this year are very unique in their pedigrees with such sires as GDAR Game Day 449, Koupal Juneau 797, GVC Settler 004X, Young Dale XCaliber 32X , Musgrave Boulder and S McCoy 124. They are a lot of great herdsire prospects in the future for these young bulls. The Simmental bulls on offer are out of such sires as MR TR Hammer ET 308A, CCF Vision, CCR Cowboy Cut and Profit.

These Simmental bulls will be great additions to your herd.

The females selected for this year’s sale come right off the top of the Early Sunset program and when visiting with Jim, they are just hard to part with. The opportunity to obtain top end genetics from a progressive breeder like Early Sunset is one that should not be taken lightly. Jim & Peggy have been promoting this progressive herd in the U.S. and such select sales as The Angus Collection Sale and Checkers where they had huge success this year. His program continues to grow very rapidly and the progeny on display this year will impress all.

We at OBI are very familiar with the Early Sunset program and if you need any assistance, please do not hesitate to call us, Jim, or any of the sales staff. See you at Edam, SK. on the 25th of March.

Xcaliber 32X is a massive, stout bull that moves so easy for a powerhouse. We knew he would fit right into our program and that he did siring bulls with size, lots of bone and big hips with great heads on them. His progeny have been sought after at Young Dale including the $146,000 Believe 46B son to Richmond Ranch. The Grand Champion Pen of 3 bulls at Denver 2016 was all XCaliber 32X sons and the lead off bull brought $50,000 for Frye Angus.
