1:30 PM -- March 9, 2016 -- BRandon, mB Mar Mac Farms -- Perkin Land & Cattle Co. -- Angus Valley Farm
Welcome to our 12th Annual Bull Sale that we have hosted at Mar Mac Farms. We are a fourth Generation family run farm, where everyone is involved in the day to day operation. Brett is involved in the day to day operation of the farm along with owning his own cattle and crop land. Brett has recently been selected to be the Young Cattleman’s Council, Manitoba rep. Melissa owns and operates Prairie Pistol Designs, a graphics design and marketing company that designs ads, websites and catalogs along with cattle photography and videography. As we look forward to 2016, the cattle industry saw some of the top dollars ever paid for calves and cull cows in 2015. Although the market has leveled off, we must still appreciate the strong prices we are still receiving for our livestock. Top end calves are bringing around $1300-$1500. per calf which is still a good investment in the livestock industry. At Mar Mac, we are very proud of this strong set of beef bulls. As you can see in all divisions, Mar Mac has worked hard to achieve some outcross genetics along with calving ease and power potential herd sires. You will be able to access all your herd bull needs with these options. These bulls have been through a strict culling process with structural soundness, ease of fleshing, and disposition taken into consideration. Any of the bulls in the sale we would use in our program. We would like to retain the right to collect 200 straws of semen for our own use in our own herd at your convenience and our expense, on any of these bulls. Cow families are very important in our program as you can see in this book and our fall female sale; these families consistently produce top quality livestock. The cows are not pampered they have to calve and breed back or they do not stay around. This is the second year; our bulls are on a complete silage ration, to enhance longevity and soundness. They are athletic, loose hided and have lots of hair. You may find fatter bulls at other sales but these boys are fed to last. We are pleased to work with sale consignors: Perkin Land and Cattle Co. and Bruce McRae of Angus Valley Farm. Angus Valley bulls were fed at Mar Mac. Hosting a sale takes lots of hard work and we would like to thank our friends and neighbors that have helped us out over the years. We look forward to meeting with you on sale day, although we can not visit with everyone, we would like to thank you for attending our sale and supporting our program. Blair, Lois, Brett and Melissa McRae
p.s. Join us for a tasty Roast Beef Lunch at noon. Our sale barn is heated but the bulls are on display outside, so dress accordingly.

Check out the video of Ribeye at www.marmacfarms.net to see the agility and stride he has for an 8 year old Red Angus bull!!! We are so impressed by how docile, free moving, structurally sound and thick topped Ribeye is. A number of the Red Angus bulls are out of Ribeye females. It will be very hard to replace Ribeye as no matter bulls or females, they worked.
Outcross genetics and what a package. We retained Spartan to use in our program. His sire, Blackberry, left a strong set of bulls and boy what a set of females he left at Mar Mac. Blackberry’s dam is our Donor female McRae’s Bridget 125T(sired by Stevenson’s Bruno). On the dam’s side, when we purchased the Buck Valley herd one of strong cow families was the Siera line. To produce some outcross genetics we bred Siera to the beefy DMM Makin Waves sire. This combination has resulted in Spartan. So you will have to drive many miles to find a sire with these outcross genetics, along with the performance, and strong maternal strength. Wow what a set of bulls he left for the first calf crop.

Cruise has calving ease written all over him. We had a straw of Pasquale, the calving ease specialist left in the tank so put it in this Mission female, who sold in the Keystone Klassic Sale to Dale McKay. Look at the dark red, thick meaty, clean fronted Pasquale son who resulted in this cross.

Mar Mac used Peacemaker from Accelerated Genetics for some outcross genetics and calving ease. Boy are we happy with the calves, they not only calve easy but grow too. A number of Peacemaker females sold in our female sale and were well accepted. This Peacemaker x Prowler 2 year cross we think is really exciting, not only calving ease but style, and natural thickness.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION
JOE & Amanda BOUCHARD
Mar Mac Red Angus bulls qualify for this program.
We run a large black angus commercial cow herd in the North Interlake. We have bought 5 black angus bulls over the last couple years from Mar Mac and have been very pleased with our purchases. The bulls are solid, long, deep and wide and have great feet on them. They transfer these traits to their calves well and the calves package and weigh up well on sale day. They are easy calving and the calves are aggressive and up and nursing quickly on their own. The heifer calves are quiet and have great feet and udders. I appreciate the passion and philosophy at Mar Mac on producing top quality low input seed stock and that the problems belong on the truck. We plan to continue to source bulls from Mar Mac for our farm.

Blackberry was no accident. When you mix the genetics of a Mulberry grandson with a productive female like Bridget 125T, things can get exciting. We flushed 125T and many of her sons are in the sale. We do not flush just any old cow, at Mar Mac it has to be a proven, no miss female that we can build a herd around. Blackberry himself is such an impressive individual and wow what a job his sons and daughters are done.

Mar Mac bull program has been developed using the highest amount of silage and hay in the ration along with grain and supplement to achieve the energy and protein requirements they need to develop. The program is designed to achieve optimal gain, lean growth and skeletal frame but not to have excess condition on the bulls. The supplement used is the Nutre Beef Bull Developer Supp which enhances fertility, testical size, hair growth and foot health. Regards, Doug Allison

Boy what a job KOF 9T has done in the Angus breed. She is one of the females that made the criteria for Premier Dam since 2014. What an accomplishment!!! She has offspring working at Larry Heinrich, Black Hawk Angus, Blair and Bobbi Rankin and females at Mar Mac.

Just before A.I. season in 2014, I called Chris and Shane to ask what new up and coming bulls they would recommend. They highly recommended Mohnen South Dakota. I believe the words were “Don’t worry about it, just breed all your cows to South Dakota”. Look at this bull now, I wish I had taken their advice! 21C’s dam was one of my foundation cows, and I was sad to see her go to town at 11 years of age this fall. Owned by Brett McRae

Unique describes this Angus bull.

HETERO polled - RED - Purebred Here is an exciting young Feb 27 son of Marksman that created some excitement this fall. An extremely thick topped, correct, meaty Marksman son out of a 2 year old Red Iron female that goes back to the Carli Cow family. The Red Iron females make great mother cows with feminity and loads of milk to bring in the top end calves. Revolution was named the All Breeds Champion Jackpot Bull at the 2015 Ag Ex. Mar Mac thinks a lot of this cow family and this individual, we would like to retain a 1/3 interest no possession in this bull. We feel he has lots of future ahead of him. Owned by Melissa McRae

Talking to the many producers that have invested in our genetics at this bull sale over the years, we feel we are on the right track of mixing performance and calving ease to produce the kind of offspring that are lively at birth and can go on to grow into marketable cattle as well as have replacements with longevity and functionality in their herds. At PLCC our herd has grown to 140 young cows that have produced this exciting group of bulls on offer. With AI, ET transplants and using some very good walking bulls we try to move our breeding forward every year. We invite you to come and view the cows and the bulls on offer anytime at PLCC, and all bulls will be pictured and videoed on our website. We would like to retain the right to collect 200 straws of semen for our own in herd use at your convenience and our expense on any of our bulls. See you at the sale.

A deep red KWA Big Time son that is sure to have many friends sale day. We were very impressed with his sire when he sold at Ashworth’s, we took a big swing but did not bring him home that day, however we did buy a semen package after. BAM! This guy has the same look as his old man. A bull with regal presence, big rib dimension and an overall appeal, as well as strong performance and carcass EPDs and a big ribeye, measuring almost 17 inches. His maternal sister born last year is one of our top bred heifers. This mellow bull has the power and the pedigree to make a difference in many herds.

hetero polled hetero black Purebred What more can I say about this genetic combo that hasn’t already been said in past years. Once again the 680S x Doll is the performance bull in the pen, ranking number one for adjusted yearling weight, weight per day of age and average daily gain and in the top 1% for ribeye. He scanned a 16 inch actual ribeye and was in the top 10 for %IMF. He has a presence and pride when he walks about the pen. The 680S hip and hair is ever present in this calf. Full brothers have sold as top prospects thru this sale, in 2013 to Dana and Meagan Johns, 2014 to Art Johnasson and 2015 to Wayne Heinricks, averaging well over $8000. This bull has herd bull written all over him. Don’t miss out on one of the last of these ET calves.

A very good bull that is patterned exactly like his brother (Lot 62). He has the hair, style, and structure to make an excellent herd bull, and has gained a respectable 4.22 lbs/day since weaning. Analyze the 2 together, and then picture these brothers breeding in your pasture together, it would be impressive. Take one or take them both, but don’t get left out.

WOW! Where should I start with this big barreled rascal. As you can see he goes back to the Doll cow making him a bit of a special red pedigree. All year he has been one of the stoutest bulls on pasture and in the yard. He should go on to breed this tremendous performance in a moderate frame, as his adjusted YW is 1431 lbs. His hip and top are an easy give away to his excellent carcass credentials. His mother is a must see cow, perfect udder and stout. Her heifer last year is our #1 bred heifer. Don’t let this Dr. Phil prospect get away.

A Big Time ET calf out of Agnes, a cow we sold to Kopp’s as a calf and then bought back in their dispersal as one of the top sellers and immediately flushed her. We are currently flushing her grandmother too, dam of Lot 76 Structurally correct, tidy headed, all wrapped up in a performance package, with an adjusted YW of 1441 lbs. We really like the way this calf has developed, he came in second only to Lot 62 in their group. Super long with a fantastic quarter and depth of rib. Purebred or commercial this guy should turn some heads.

A good El Tigre calf out of a sound Nugget cow. Knowing what this cow has produced year after year, expect consistent breeding in a bull like this. Brothers have sold to Cam Rampton, Stan Rampton, and Maurice Desrochers thru this sale, and a maternal sister sold to Downhill Simmentals thru the Pembina Sale, and she went on to raise a pretty good bull calf too. ($5 for advertising, Everett). A solid bull who gained 4.69 lbs/day on test and has a 16 inch ribeye with a bright future.

A calf that resulted from some embryos that were purchased from BLI. The mother is an impressive big bodied cow we tried to acquire at Remingtons dispersal (unsuccessfully), a very feminine cow with an excellent udder. The sire, Casino is a powerful herdsire from LFE. This royal breeding has resulted in this calf. A tidy head on a deep ribbed bull, he should leave some soggy progeny and he ranked in the top 10 for %IMF with a 16 inch ribeye. A full ET bred heifer sib was sold at the Shades sale by MRL for a mere $31,000. Take a good look at this guy to tie up some of these top genetics in your herd.

Plain and simply…A HERD BULL! Outrageously long spined, big spring of rib, deep quartered with tremendous performance. Many visitors immediately take notice of this fella when they are in the pen, he moves so smooth. His mother has a very nice udder and has raised some top prospects. This is her 4th calf, the others were 2 bulls that have sold to Don Dickson and Melvin Dunn and her only heifer was an absolute standout of the 2013 born heifers that we kept in our herd. Many producers would love to have a pen full of bulls like this guy, especially considering his adjusted yearling weight of 1539 lbs, his weight per day of age of 4.11 lbs, his ADG of 5 lbs and his 17 inch ribeye. Take him home he’s really just that good.

Our good ol’ Shear Force cow has produced another dandy bull with extremely balanced EPDs. The one and only Wallbanger in the pen, he has had such an impact on the breed. A good footed bull with ample testicles, his adjusted weight is 1472lbs and he’s gained 4.77 lbs/day on test, all with a calving ease EPD in the top 20%. Here is one that should go out and cover some ground and leave tremendous females.

A real sale feature. This El Tigre calf has the presence and style of a breeding bull. With a picture perfect moderate Dr. Phil mother this guy is sure to breed sound structured, stout cattle, and it doesn’t hurt that he’s gained 4.5 lbs a day since weaning. Deep quartered, big hip and rib, moving up into a smooth shoulder, this guy is as fluid in his joint movement as they get. Serious cattlemen take note of this important breeding piece.

One of the deepest sided red bulls in the pen, he often gets noticed for his dark red color and stoutness by everyone who visits. He is proud headed and has excellent testicle development. A bull that will add some soggyness to his progeny, as well as performance, as he’s gained 4.5 lbs/day on test and has a 16.8 inch ribeye. This is the first bull that this cow has had, but we’ve kept 3 daughters and sold a full sister to Storbo farms at the Pembina sale last fall. Make them red, make them stout, make this guy yours.

A big performance Hot Iron calf here with a Colossal mother who was another performance bull for us. Hot Iron has really bred well for us, putting more performance into his calves than we expected, being as moderate as he is. Push the scale down with calves from this herd bull prospect, as he was the second highest gaining bull with an adjusted yearling weight of 1529 lbs, a WPA of 4.07 and an ADG of 4.77 lbs/day and ranked in the top 10 for %IMF. I think I would have to put this guy near the top of my picks for the group.

Peak polled and easy fleshing, his adjusted yearling weight of 1479 lbs puts him near the top of the pen. A bull that will have commercial guys lined up for this blaze faced package on sale day, he has a weight per day of age of 4 lbs/day and an ADG of over 4 lbs and was third for %IMF.

Cool pedigree here! A really solid Dusty calf out of a full sister to all those good 680S x Doll bulls we have sold over the years. Good maternal and carcass numbers and a moderate BW, and was third for %IMF Not to mention he is one of our younger bulls. I would like to see this guy as a 4 year old, he could be one of the most impressive ones to come out of our group.

This Red Mountain calf is just what we expected Red Mountain to do on a first calf heifer, low BW and short gestation. His mother is a deep red, good uddered heifer that came from Oakview at the Pembina sale. We think this big bodied bull would be a good heifer bull candidate or leave very good calves on cows as well with his 4.46 lbs/day ADG. He was also the top bull for %IMF.

A pretty neat calf when you consider the shortness of gestation and the superior calving ease he has. His sire proved to us that he was tremendously consistent in gestation averaging less than 280 days. If you want guaranteed calving ease…..then shorten gestation. To add to this, his Hard Rock mother is one of our top prospects for up and coming cows in the Doll cow family. This bull ranks in the top 25% or higher for the entire breed in calving ease, birth weight, weaning weight, yearling weight, maternal calving ease, maternal weaning weight, milk, ribeye and marbling EPDs! A bit extra frame in a heifer bull.

These Godfather calves have very low birth weights for such a powerful sire and they are consistent in gestation and type. Big ribbed and tidy headed, this calf should be able to go on heifers or cows with exceptional results. His mother has had 5 calves and averaged 74 lbs on birth weights and his birth weight EPD is in the top 4% of the breed.

These Dusty’s are shaping up to be very nicely made bulls with low birth weights. Analyze him - square on all corners, good hip, and an attractive head. His mother is one of 8 full sibs we have from Mader’s Blackgold 110S cow, a cow that has produced many top sellers and show prospects. Look deep in this pedigree to find greats like Shear Force, Crosby, Gunner, Dynamite Black - a list of “whose who” in the red and black Simmental world. He’s a good one, with a flawless set of EPDs.
