RBM FARGO Y111
Homozygous polled Fargo is a proven sire with exceptional smoothness, tremendous muscle shape and weaning and yearling growth in the top 10% of the breed. We’re impressed with the Fargo sons: big solid feet, lots of natural muscle and that rugged hairy look.

CEDARLEA TAPADERO 17G
Homozygous polled, Pleasant Dawn MVP son that will add thickness and remarkable muscle shape. His strong pedigree provides some of the highest weaning and yearling weights in the Canadian Charolais Herdbook. Elite is proving to be an outlier, providing excellent calving ability and remarkable growth!
We started to use Tapadero, the high selling bull from our 2020 bull sale purchased by Kay-R Land & Cattle, on a select number of cows. He is a curve bender with his calving ease in the top 10% and his weaning/yearling growth EPD also in the top 10%. His sons will add length and muscle, improve foot structure and increase weaning weights without compromising calving ease.
PLEASANTDAWN COLUMN 730G
We brought Column into our breeding program for his powerful big hip, length, smoothness and heavy hair coat. Column will follow in his sires footsteps with excellent calving ease and growth numbers, top 30% for WW and top 15% for YW. He will provide additional growth without compromising calving ability. Column will improve quality grade with added marbling.

CEDARLEA THE COUNT 175F
We brought LT Authority 7229 Pld, the 2018 LT Bull Sale record high seller into our bull battery as an outcross calving-ease trailblazer. He is producing calves with moderate birth weights with an excellent phenotype. His sons will provide calving ease, improve natural fleshing ability, add depth/width, and produce pen after pen of stylish front pasture calves. Authority sons are structurally correct and have a wonderful temperament and disposition.
We are very excited about “The Count” and what he has to offer! He could easily be the prototype for all Charolais bulls. Moderate framed, remarkable muscle pattern with extra depth and thickness. He has an excellent disposition and a pleasure to work with. On top of his outstanding phenotype, his sons will provide exceptional growth (weaning and yearling weight) and improve carcass merit for all the important/relevant traits. One of the best bulls we’ve raised to date.
