Welcome to our 10th Annual Bull Sale
W
elcome fellow cattle breeders, friends and family to the Elder Charolais 10th Annual Bull Sale. We would like to begin by extending our sincere thanks to each and every operation that has shown confidence in our program through previous bull sales, and we are extremely grateful for all your support throughout the years. We have truly enjoyed the friendships we have come to have through this annual gathering and all the laughs and memories we have made through the years. The ten years has passed quickly and we look forward to more memories and more bull sales. We remember some of those 10 years with pictures in this catalogue. To say this past year was trying is a huge understatement. We weathered through the frigid 40 below temperatures most of February - where many nights were spent close to the barn and outside bringing cows into warmer facilities to calve. Spring was colder than normal with many nights below freezing the first couple weeks in May. June came quickly and panic started to set in as most of the province had received absolutely no rain fall. Grass was brown and many thought there would be no hay crop. Mother Nature has a funny way of throwing a lot of curveballs at the agriculture industry. The middle of June hit and the skies opened up and it rained all through the summer and most of the fall. Plenty of feed was made and pastures where back to normal. Harvest was a long drawn out process with a very wet fall and we finally finished up our harvest on October 30th. As for many folks, the process of getting the cattle home this year was very challenging. There were a large number of unharvested acres still out on the path from the pasture to the yard. All but one pasture was hauled home. We made it! Here we are 1/2 way through another calving season and at another bull sale! God made a farmer! We are proud to be Charolais breeders, and each and every year our goal is to provide our customers with a strong selection of bulls that will meet varying needs. We work to provide bulls that will go out and work for you and put money in your pocket at the end of the day. The line up of bulls this year is much like 2019 with Commissioner, Blackjack, Double Vision, and Slugger leading the way. Downhome is a new sire group this year and cowboys don’t pass these sons up. They are stout, hairy, meat machines that will sire calves that will crush the scales in the fall. We have combined all this bull power to provide easy calving bulls, with performance to breed your heifer too, some performance bulls for your cows, and some colour – red, white and tan. Conformation is a priority and we select our genetics to produce bulls with thick butts, deep bodies, lots of muscle through the hind quarter, good testicle development, lots of hair and really good dispositions. We are certain there should be something
for everyone. Again this fall the Charcross calves brought premiums in the auction barns across the country. There has never been a better time to get on board and add a Charolais bull into your program and take advantage of the hybrid vigour offered by this great breed. If you are unfamiliar with our program, our bulls have been raised on a balanced nutritional ration consisting of rolled corn, oats, barley, beet pulp as well as a complete chelated mineral package. They are on free choice crested wheat alfalfa, and are pail fed twice a day, so we can monitor the bulls on a consistent basis. Whether you require a calving ease bull for your heifer pen or a powerful performance bull to utilize on your mature cows, we feel there is a bull here to fit your program. We once again have video footage on the bulls to provide an opportunity for you to view our bull pen on-line prior to the sale. The bulls will be sold on sale day by video, so if time permits, please arrive early and we will be more than happy to go through the bull pens with you and answer any questions you may have. If we can help you find a bull to suit your program don’t hesitate to call or come for a drive. We always welcome company and love to talk Charolais with anybody. The door is always open and coffee is always on.

his is the 10th Annual sale for Elder Charolais after more than 30 years in the business and what a pen of bulls they have. This operation is all about quality and always has been. Their cattle have been competitive in the show ring and the commercial calf sales and for good reason. They always strive to buy and produce the best possible animal they can. There are bulls that would work in the heifer pen to big performance bulls they use in their own commercial herd. There are a number of sire groups with lots of numbers, so if you want multiple bulls that will give you consistency, they are here.. They run a commercial herd and at the Charolais Extravaganza feeder calf sale in Moose Jaw the end of October, their calves and their customer calves are in the top pens and bring top dollars. There are herd bulls that will work in both the purebred and commercial industry with the name Elder as a prefix found in many top herds around the world, but there are still bulls that will fit everyone’s budget. They are also people that are committed to making the business better. Michael is currently president of the Canadian Charolais Association. This is a video sale at the Elder Charolais Farm with the atmosphere calm and hassle free. The hospitality is always excellent and if you have never been to Coronach, you will be glad you made the drive. Come for lunch and stay for a visit after. If you haven’t used a Charolais bull before you need to give it a try to see the advantages that crossbreeding will give you. Once again, the Charcross calves were setting the standard for the feeder sales last fall and with the number of producers putting Charolais bulls on their black cows, we are going to see the silver revolution put money in your pocket. Quality and performance will always top the market and starting Sale Manager 306-584-7937 Helge By 306-536-4261 with the best bull battery you can, will pay you dividends for many years. Candace By 306-536-3374 If Jon, Candace or I can be of any assistance before the sale, or on Jon Wright 306.807.8424 sale day, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.

HOMO PLD
We acquired Commissioner from Wienk Charolais of Lake Preston, South Dakota. His calves are all long in the spine, solid square hip, nice head, lots of hair and a good temperament. Commissioner is one of the easiest calving bulls to date that we have had in our bull pen. He follows it up with performance and the Commissioner sons are the majority of our offering in this bull sale. Commissioner has become one of the most talked about Charolais bulls in Canada and the US and for good reason – as he is a true curve bender! Commissioner sired the Reserve Grand Champion female as well as the Sr. Bull Calf Champion at Farmfair 2019 in Edmonton. CE 14.5

Gomez, like all his half brothers, combines calving ease with performance. The nice shape of the heads and front 1/2 on the Commissioner calves is really something to appreciate when going through the bull pen. The BlackJack/Commissioner cross has flat out worked here and Gomez is no exception. He is a fine specimen with a big belly, big nuts and huge hip.

Gizmo stands among the big boys in the bull pen. One of the bigger framed bulls but not lacking in performance, pounding the scales at 1395 on January 20th. Although Gizmo has a 109 BW, he will calve just fine when you combine that his dam is a bigger framed cow. Being a Commissioner son is a safe bet when it comes to calving.

He has a strong top, lots of hind quarter, and is thick across the back, great hair, soft made, very sound, with good testicles and an exceptional disposition.

Monte Carlo was our 1st Honcho calf born to an awesome Princess daughter. He was a twin and has done well for a late February calf. He has moved right along in weight gain. We see good things coming out of the Honcho calves.

So God Made a Farmer (Paul Harvey) And on the 8th day, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, “I need a caretaker!”. So, God made a Farmer! God said, “I need somebody willing to get up before dawn, milk cows, work all day in the fields, milk cows again, eat supper, then go to town and stay past midnight at a meeting of the school board.” So, God made a Farmer! “I need somebody with arms strong enough to wrestle a calf and yet gentle enough to deliver his own grandchild. Somebody to call hogs, tame cantankerous machinery, come home hungry, have to wait for lunch until his wife is done feeding visiting ladies, then tell the ladies to be sure to come back real soon… and mean it.” So, God made a Farmer! God said “I need somebody willing to sit up all night with a newborn colt and watch it die, then dry his eyes and say, “Maybe next year.” I need somebody who can shape an ax handle from a persimmon sprout, shoe a horse with a hunk of car tire, who can make a harness out of hay wire, feed sacks and shoe scraps, who at planting and harvest season will finish his 40 hour work week by Tuesday noon, and then painin’ from ‘tractor back’ put in another 72 hours.” So, God made a Farmer! God had to have somebody willing to ride the ruts at double speed to get the hay in ahead of the rain clouds and yet stop on mid-field to help when he sees the first smoke from a neighbor’s place. So, God made a Farmer! God said, “I need somebody strong enough to clear trees, heave bales and yet gentle enough to tame lambs and wean pigs and tend the pink combed pullets, who will stop his mower for an hour to splint the broken leg of a meadow lark.” It had to be somebody who’d plow deep and straight…and not cut corners. Somebody to seed, weed, feed, breed and rake and disc and plow and plant and tie the fleece and strain the milk and replenish the self feeder and then finish a hard week’s work with a five mile drive to church. Somebody who’d bale a family together with the soft strong bonds of sharing, who’d laugh and then sigh and then reply, with smiling eyes, when his son says he wants to spend his life ‘doing what dad does’. So, God made a Farmer!
