Welcome...
On behalf of all the consignors, we welcome you to the 2022 Wishlist Sale! The set of cattle are tremendous and are only outdone by the incredible folks who have offered them up for your consideration. This is our 50th Anniversary for Gelbvieh, and you will not find a better group of people to celebrate with! Please consider this as your invitation, come and join us in Stettler to celebrate and enjoy the hospitality! We are extremely excited to once again host the Canadian Bull Futurity alongside the events of the weekend. On offer are the best of the best, future herdsire options no matter what you are looking for!
The sale cattle have made it through a historic drought, so you know they are capable of making a living and contributing to your herd. Every animal has been selected to showcase the herd of origin, and this representation isn’t taken lightly! On offer you will find a sweet set of heifer calves, and the bred heifers are second to none! This sale offering is loaded with genetic pieces that will advance every herd and some that can win a few banners. We would like to thank Brittain Farms for their generous support of the donation heifer, CK Kasmira 37K. She is a beauty and will no doubt contribute to the lucky new owner’s herd! If you would like help in purchasing tickets ahead of time, don’t hesitate to let any of the sales staff or myself know and we will get those tickets purchased for you.
I would like to also give a HUGE shout out to the breeders for supporting the Junior Incentive Program. Every year, this program builds in number and awareness as you will see during the sale. The foresight this group had has given a glorious boost to the junior program and will ensure our amazing cow families are able to help build more young people and a continued interest in our future generations. We would also like to send a big thank you to Keriness Cattle Company for sponsoring the lunch on Saturday, just another fine example of the support given by some of the best people in the industry!
On a personal note, I would like to say thank you to our board for their teamwork and unending desire to ensure success. It is the people who make any organization what it is and believe me this group is some of the best to be found anywhere! I thank you for your effort, passion and belief in each other and this breed. I am proud to serve beside you!
Please have a look through the catalog, and join us in Stettler for some comradery and celebrations. The Gelbvieh people and evening entertainment of “Trailer Park Queens” will be worth the effort! If you find your schedule busy and unable to attend in person, we have you covered with online support from DLMS and multiple phones if that is your desire. Give any of us a call, we are happy to help!
Thank you and we hope to see you there!

JEN-TY GELBVIEH
Well here is a homozygous polled, stylish, attractive, feminine female that demands your attention as soon as you see her. A JEN Dragon H107 sired heifer that has all the true makings to be an amazing broody female. She is very moderate in her stature and carries a tremendous amount of thickness and depth to her rib. She has a sweet disposition that will attract you to her. Her dam TVR Alexa 722E has loads of thickness and awesome udder structure and has worked well in our program. You will be impressed by Sugar Cane’s EPD’s as well. This Cherry Red female is sure to go on and do great things in any program.

very well balanced heifer stemming from a great purchase out of the Hillsdown sale, who shouldn’t be leaving. In an effort to offer our best red heifers, here she is as an op portunity! Cow families are what keeps us all in business, and this heifer will no doubt carry forward. She is a dark red, good haired, easy fleshing individual who will make a tremendous brood cow.

She is out of our herd bull- AM Hummer 8H who has consistently stamped his calves cherry red and growthy. Kally's dam was purchased from the Birch's at the Wish List a few years ago. Good cows produce good cows- and we feel confident this will be the case here. If you're a numbers person- take a look at her EPDs. You will notice the vast majority of her traits are well above average. Here's one we're proud to consign.

TVR Miss Ginny 4K has greatness and breed changing capabilities bred into her. She is no fluke. Have a very close look at her pedigree and you will notice why we make that statement. She has that extra look and design that elite donor prospects and foundation breeding females all possess. Ginny would make a nice junior proj ect as she is extremely quiet, and she loves the attention. She has that phenotype that would do well in the show ring. Miss Ginny 4K is destined to be a great one. And there’s no doubt about that.
Pick of the Heifer Calves
High Faluntin

The Fall of 2023 will be an exciting time for the breeder with the highest bid at Wishlist 2022. Towerview Ranch is opening the gates to allow that breeder to have their pick from the heifer calf crop that is expected to be outstanding. We have done our homework and have mated the cows accordingly to some great proven sires: VV Zake, DLW Alumni 7513A and COLB Xavier x812 and 2 excellent upand-comers in Twin View Preakness 14HET which was the People’s Choice Futurity winner as well as an all-round excellent bull, Foursquare Judge 365 and which was the high seller at the Foursquare Bull Sale 2021. Combine these genetics with those of our elite cow herd and you have the makings of some seri ous cow power! You can find TVR prefixed females in herds throughout Canada and they are all living up to their potential. Selection must be made before September 2023.

At Milne’s Gelbvieh we believe in offering our latest genetics to the public. GCC Val 1K offers you the combination of GCC VAL 5H a SLC VIPER daughter and GCC HEADLINE 8H a son of HDG HILLSDOWN FINNEGAN the record setting $70,000.00 bull at the Hillsdown dispersal. When we were outlining our matings we bred GCC HEADLINE 8H to all our VIPER daughters and have we ever been pleased. These calves were all born with ease and the udders on the VIPER daughters are beautiful. With GCC VAL1K you will be investing in the latest genetics backed by one of the most prominent cow families in our herd. DNA tested Homo Polled.

CK Kiara 1K is a female that we think very highly of and is one of those that has all the pieces to become a breed changer. She is a very eye appealing dark red, fancy made female with impressive length of spine and depth of rib. Kiara 1K is out of CK Dynasty 23D who is a half sibling to the famous CK Xanadu 71X, a cow that Severtson Land and Cattle own and have had incredible success, both in the show ring and as a donor female. Dynasty 23D has done great things at Brittain Farms as well, with 2 impressive retained daughters in our herd as well as being the dam of 2 of the top breeding bulls that were sold at Gelbvieh Advan tage Bull sales in the past few years. Kiara 1K’s sire- Foursquare Gung Ho 42G is also making a name for him self at Brittain Farms. He has produced long spined, thick made females such as the 2022 National Jr Gelbvieh Percentage/Balancer Champion Female, CK Justified Vintage 11J. With a stacked pedigree like this and im pressive overall phenotype, CK Kiara 1K may just be the next breed changer!

are super pleased to offer LCF Kit Kat 47K into the 2022 Wishlist sale. When we purchased Kit Kats dam Twisted T Fancy, from Twisted T’s dispersal sale we knew she was destined to do great things for us, and that she’s already done. We kept her first calf for ourselves, we decided even though a hard decision that we can’t keep them all and wanted to see this heifer go into someone else’s purebred program. Her sire is our long time herd sire Davidson Roy 175C, who really gave us many great replacements over his time. The hair on this female is definitely appreciated and her fine but thick fea tures are one thing that stick out to us.

FLR Kendra is a fancy, eye appealing feminine heifer with a deep red coat. She has length of spine and a good solid foot under her. Quiet and easy to work with, put up nicely and structurally sound. She comes from a great cow family that we just can’t get enough of. She also happens to come with some impressive EPDS. Her mother has a perfect udder and great temperament. Homo Polled.

Kazoo is an attractive female that is put together just right. Structurally correct, strong footed, with a nice hip and backed by strong genetics. Every time we went out to the field this fancy girl managed to grab our attention. We have been using her dam’s full sibling, FLR EZ Money 20E as a senior herd sire on our heifers and love the results. This girl is going to give you calving ease, big milk, and longevity.

Hey folks…yes, I’m finally consigning to the Wishlist Sale! We’re excited to have se lected ULL 10K from the top of our replacements and it just so happens to be out of our top cow family as well. The Miss Pretty line has near flawless udders, super quiet tem peraments and are good producing, eye appealing cattle. 10K is very dark red, homo polled and will be a lot like her dam 126G. Grand dam 50B is in the donor program this year. Add to the mix her sire FRL Hellfire, whose pedigree speaks for itself, and this recipe turned out “pretty” darn good. We’re proud to offer this heifer and hope you’ll be proud to own her.

Fancy
were thrilled and honoured to add HDG Bootmaker 5H to our herd, an original son of the great HDG Finnegan 4F who sold to the USA for $70,000. We were confident HDG Bootmaker 5H was going to produce desirable animals just like his dad and he did not disappoint. Just take a look at this sweet girl. She is a little broody, and a little fancy all mixed together. She is smooth shouldered, long bodied and has good ribs in the middle. She has traits that make her ideal as a working female. Top 1% for PG30 and top 10% for CED. Born at 80 lbs and weaned out at 700 lbs. If you are looking for a female that will go to work for you. LLC 4K Head over Boots BTM is the one for you. We are confident she will produce calves that will have no limits, and that will be amazing from the pen to the ring.
DUSTY ROSE CATTLE CO.
Sometimes you have to search for “the one”, sometimes you just know. We are very ex cited about this Treasure! She’s possibly the widest top, most solid made heifer that we’ve ever raised. Out of our newest herdsire, High Road, who in turn is sired by the 2016 Farmfair champion SLC Roadtrip. We used High Road only lightly his first year and all his calves quickly became favored. Treasure’s dam is a beautiful uddered daugh ter out of Ally, purchased here at Wishlist and sired by CK Triple X. We believe that our treasure can be a gem in any future
Fancy Heifer Calves
KLC Kiwi 159K is one of those heifer calves you get excited about while you watch them grow and right from the start, Kiwi has been a favourite. Sired by AWB Ground Zero 65G purchased from Twin View Livestock and Dam, KLC 12E is a daughter of the Milne’s Gelbvieh, A Mack At tack 5A bull that has proven to be a top-notch female producer, which is proven when you look at this pair. If you want a female that will be a constant producer, Kiwi has the pedigree to support her. Granddam GCC 12C was our pick of the herd as a wedding gift from Mom & Dad, she has been a Dam of Merit for the past 4 years running, with Dam Ellie 12E joining that rank this year. Kiwi is homozygous polled with a nice birthweight of 87 lbs. When you include her pedigree and genotype you can’t deny the possibilities with her in your herd.
Gertrude’s
is our first ever consignment at the wishlist sale and we are very excited to be part of the sale and to be able to offer this special heifer. She’s a beautiful homo polled, dark cherry red female who is very stylish and structurally correct. Her sire, SLC Viper 59G, who we own together with Unger Land & Livestock gave us a phenomenal first set of calves this past year. The females from him are some of the best we have raised. Her Dam, CLR Gertrude
is one of our favorite cows around Cowlick Ranch. She’s young but we already know she is going to be a key part of our program. She’s a fancy, easy fleshing cow with excellent feet and a beautiful udder. We are confident her daughter will live up to the same
Fancy Heifer Calves
When this calf turned her head and looked up during photos we all screamed “Yes!” and that says some thing about this female. Let’s start with the fun stuff in her pedigree, yes folks, that’s an AMGV cow out of the highly utilized Chief Justice C205. Miss Fortune, Carolina leverage, Lazy Tv Sam, Astro and Eclipse on the bottom side and on the top side we’ve got Boxer, Mayweather, Natalie, Macy, Tennessee Cat to name a few. Once again, this is a calf that will add a little genotype to your phenotype and help you move that nee dle a little farther above breed average on most traits. Take a peek at the Marbling score and her carcass values, not to mention an adjusted ww of 712#, this is a calf I absolutely did not want to bring to town, but we wanted to give folks the opportunity to try something familiar, yet different, and get eyes on a calf that really does a good job of displaying our hopes and dreams in blending some of the best bloodlines in both countries and hoping they compliment each other ap propriately. You get to be the judge come sale day and this is one I will definitely be tracking well after she’s left the farm
was selected by Longlane Cattle at the Peoples Choice Bull Futurity and this Bootmaker female is one that we’ve had on the keep list, and then the sale list a few times back and forth. Kelley has a nar rower skull shape and a nicely refined neck that prove her calving ease coming from Pop a Top lineage to be accurate. If you’re looking at improving genotype, this is a female that can do it with 13 traits at or above breed average. On top of that, Kelley comes from a very moderate 1250# mature female from the Rain bows Edge program that I selected for her functional efficiency. Considering Kelley’s mom was under 700# as a yearling and Kelley’s adjusted WW came out to 638# you can see that this is a combination that works and will help you raise those ani mals that you love at a price you can afford. Kelley’s pedigree is stacked with names like Finnegan, Mr Xavier, Pop a Top, Red Chili and Black Mack and she is one that will help add some calving ease while not sacrificing the growth potential we all enjoy with our Gelbvieh cattle. Read her reg#, put her in the progeny calculator with a bull of your choice and consider what spin you can put on this calf to bring her back as a winning pair next year, I believe the sky is the limit here.
Kate has been a favourite for us this year. 642D sired a female that sold two years ago to Flat land Ranch at Wishlist and this time we bred her to Blue Collar. Blue Collar has an impressive pedigree with names like Boxer, Mayweather, Natalie and Macy, all names that you will see on banners from years past. On top of that, you will appreciate the balance in her epd profile and her exceptional carcass numbers. This is a female that has a mother that’s never thrown us a bad one and is maintaining her condition on the southern hard grass she is expected to perform on. Personality and docility are Kate’s strengths, she’s instantly loveable and Amanda did a great job breaking her in about ten minutes this fall. Docility, growth, moderate milk and 11 EPD traits on the right side of breed average means she’s able to be an asset to many programs and breeders and if you’re looking for a pretty hetero black female, Kate offers a ton of flexibility and a person ality that I’m sure will be admired come sale day.

Princess
Kamikaze is a heifer who is extremely hard to part with. She is the first female we are offering from JM FREEFALL a heifer I purchased with my Junior credit at Wishlist from Jace Cattle. Kamikaze is a good representation of the capacity, long bodiness & width I like to see in the Gelbvieh breed. This heifer has the maternal genetics to develop into a front pasture female and will raise some good calves for the purebred or commercial breeder.
a prime example of a Hamilton calf out of a first calf heifer who's dam is a four time Dam of Merit recipient. Fertility is number one in our business and with a Grand-dam who calves on a 364 day interval or less every year, she is sure to have what's needed for a long and bright future raising seedstock cattle.

A big leap for Cindy Ness on selling this bred, ‘KCC Cindy Lou Jewel 70J’ is kind of arm candy to the herd and admired by many. KCC 70J is broody that going to make bull calves in to bulls, having a wide top line, lots of capacity she is just bold. With the good fixing on the top half, she also has some good teat and udder showing, can’t say fat as her brisket is medium size. If calving cows in January isn’t your thing the Ness’s will calf her out, because we are excited to see what ‘KCC Cindy Lou Jewel 70J’ will do with our new herd sire JNA Gung Ho 609J that was in the final round at the Gelbvieh Peoples Choice Bull Futurity of 2021

2021 Winner... Brayden Fladeland
Hi! My name is Brayden Fladeland. I am 12 years old and I live on a farm at Gladmar, SK, where I work with my family at Fladeland Livestock. I really enjoy working with cattle at home and at shows.
Last year I was lucky enough to win a sale credit from the junior incentive program from the Wish List Sale. The female I chose was CK Jazz 18J. She is the first Gelbvieh heifer that I own by myself.
I would like to thank all the sponsors for making this great incentive program possible. Me and my two brothers showed Gelbvieh influenced steers and heifers in 4H shows and junior shows this year. We learned lots and had fun.
Good luck to all junior members in this years draw!

2021 Runner-Up Winner - Raleigh Little
My name is Raleigh Little and last year I got a $1000 sale credit for the wishlist sale. Last year when I heard that I got the sale credit I was so excited because I didn't have a heifer picked out yet for 4-h. It would be a great opportunity to buy heifer. We were going to the wishlist with are calves for the first time so i would have time to look at them in person but as soon as i got the catalog i kept looking and looking and thought i picked one but then when i actually got to see them in person i picked a different one that I just felt like i had a good feeling about her. When it came to sale I kept waiting and finally after a couple bids I got her. I was so excited. Her name is TVR Lady yvonne 11J but i called her midnight we took her home and immediately started working with her. I took her to lots of shows and won grand champion female with her. I was so lucky to have such a great purchase from Towerview Ranch. And I appreciate all the support I’ve had from Gary and Kerri with her. Thankyou!

We wanted to participate in the Breeders Futurity because we believe it is a great place to showcase your breeding program to a very captive audience. Koaltrain 32K is a son of DVE Taylormade 14H the leadoff bull at Davidson’s 2021 Bull Sale and his dam is a daughter of RWG Yeager a bull we selected out of Royal Western’s stall at Agribition. This May 15th born calf has an abundance of top with a well sprung set of ribs leading into a deep barrel. Structurally correct and eye appealing. He is heterozygous black and homozygous polled. We realize it will be difficult to compare him with many of the other bulls in the futurity but are confident the discerning cattleman will be able to see his genetic value. With an actual weight of 560 lbs. at 4 month of age he and his mother are show ing their ability to perform.
write this I’m staring at a 5 month old bull calf. But on that April morning when GAC K99 Knighthawk arrived and stood for the first time I knew he was going to be some thing special. K99 in our eyes is the full package. He’s

think the name is well suited for our 2022 futurity offering. Maternal grand dam is Marni 930W, a matriarch in our herd who remains youthful and an udder that is the envy of any that see her. Wolf’s sire, High Road was a purchase in his dam, ULL Ms Ozark 50W, who is recognized for some of her past progeny such as the Deception 41D bull. High Road’s sire, the 2016 Farmfair champion SLC Roadtrip 103B, has been described by some as far under rated in our breed. Wolf is a bit younger but can be ad mired for his balance, style and expected longevity. He’s howlin good!

son of AWB Birch’s Natalie 22Z has been a stand out since day one! Of the five Natalie ET bull calves that hit the ground this year, Kryptonite was the only JLSL Apollo 759E sired calf and what a cross it turned out to be! When we purchased Natalie from Function and Finesse 2.0 we knew she would do great things for our program. In her first IVF flush we were able to get 47 good oocytes and created two crosses that will stop you in your tracks! He’s got a lot going for him with perfect feet, deep bodied, and a beautiful dark red hair coat. There’s only one thing that can take superman down… wouldn’t you want that power?! When you make your choice, choose Kryptonite, he won’t let you down!
Knockout 245K is a stylish moderate framed red bull with a wide stance and a lot of rib shape. He is also a descendant of the BlackMagic family. His young Exact Combination sired dam BLB 12G has done a very good job raising Knockout. She is also a maternal sib to our 2 previous Futurity entries BLB Helix 5H and BLB Jumpstart 107J. Knockout is sired by our new herd sire BLB Hitch 23H who we have used on both heifers and ma ture cows. His first calf crop is very impressive. Look for Knockout to sire moderate mater nal females and stout sons. Knockout has an impressive EPD profile with a 80 lb BW and ADJ 205 of 758 lbs. Homo polled

our first venture into the Futurity but we felt there wasn't a better way to get out and display to everyone what we're raising. This calf consistently caught my attention on pasture this summer so we thought we'd better bring him to town. Knockout is an excellent example of what we're working towards in our breeding program. With the length and performance from Dice and the calving ease from his no-miss Bucaneer dam, he is set up to sire calves with all the critical beef-producing traits we're looking for.

AWB Twin View Classic 78K represents the best and brightest in calving ease genetics without com promising maternal merit, cow power and performance. Beginning at just 68 pounds and ranking in the top 2% for calving ease and birthweight, he also boasts an adjusted weaning weight of 745 pounds! He ranks in the top 35% for performance values! Classic is smooth made and sports a perfect foot and ideal disposition which is consistent among the Crowfoot progeny. His mother is a unique creature within our breed! She is a past Function and Finesse high seller with show and production records to prove her worth! A direct daughter of the great Baha donor, she too entered our donor pen as a yearling. Classic will show at her side this fall and they will be competitive! Classic is truly compli mentary to any program and he could be yours! Together with the Edwards family at Classic Cattle Company of Ontario, Twin View Classic is certainly worthy of your consideration!

Twin View Bold Ruler 20K ET could be the bull our breed has been waiting for! Added soft ness, increased look, expressive shape, improved hair and colour. Bold Ruler is all of those things and more! He is attractive and sound all in a dark, hairy package with massive volume. His pedi gree reads like maternal dream with exceptional mother cows like Gayle, Baha, Wruffle and Toasty. His sire, Preakness, is no stranger to the Canadian Bull Futurity after being selected as champion in 2020. Preakness did a tremendous job of consistently stamping his progeny and creating huge per formance. Bold Ruler, along with a maternal brother, will be part of our show string with their beauti ful Mama cow standing beside them. She is an elite female who has already created results beyond herself with four front running sons in her first year of production. Bold Ruler will make his mark!

It is important for us in our inaugural trip to the Wishlist and the Bull Futurity to bring our best and most potent future herdsire. MD Memphis exemplifies those values and has a great deal to offer the Gelbvieh breed! He is extremely powerful, stout made and developed the look of a herd bull from just days of age. His mother was the high selling female in Function and Finesse 3.0 who went on to be named Champion Female at Farmfair and then Reserve National Champion Female in 2021.
was carrying the service to ORB World Champion, Grizzly Red when we purchased her and Memphis is the result. He ranks in the top 10% of the breed for weaning and yearling EPDs and is backed by an outstanding maternal cow family filled with highly fertile donor females. In her maiden flush as a two year old, his dam produced 19 transferable embryos! Memphis is a powerhouse who combines elite genotype with functional phenotype. He will show alongside his elite mother this fall and we look forward to sharing them with you in Stettler!
