A Word from Bill, Connor, Ted, Family & Crew... Welcome to the first preview of the bulls and programs that comprise our 54th offering. The sale is a large undertaking that consumes most of our time, thoughts and effort through the year. Our love for the cattle business, and specifically, the bull business is as strong as ever.
The Canadian cowherd can not be replenished overnight, grass can not be established in one year to carry cows and miles of unmaintained fence simply can not be rebuilt soon enough to push the breeding herd back to a level that can match the bunk space available in feedyards across Canada and the USA. The calves being carried in cows this winter will be worth more than their mothers by Fall of 2024 and the market shows no signs of stopping there. Long story short - if you have the cow inventory and are willing to calve them there is a great opportunity for profit.Those who have hung onto the cow’s tail are looking like they will be rewarded for their grit. Please browse through this flyer - it is a preview of the incredible set of high caliber bulls on offer. We have placed emphasis for years on optimum vs maximum. Our goal is to manage our cattle under honest commercial conditions. They must flourish under the same circumstances that our customers expect of their own cattle or they will find their way to town. Equal treatment of our contemporary groups and stacks of records gives us and our customers an accurate genetic assessment. Decisions can then be made on real genetic differences. We avoid man made, non heritable expectations that can’t be replicated in the real world. We have been the choice of professional cow outfits for years and would love to show You why. “Dollars and Cents” operations can find cattle that will simply work for a living to make their new owners profitable. Our cattle do this by coming to you with convenience traits like foot and leg structure, fertility, udders and temperament in check. Longevity and breeding capability has been held paramount to drive down your annual cost of service and add to your bottom line. Make your plans to join us on February 3, 2024 at the Ranch. The bulls are on feed and are easy to tour - the cows can be toured with a little planning as they don’t come home until early April and are spread across a 140 mile radius earning their keep. We would be darn excited if you could make it to the ranch ahead of time. Cow outfits are busy though, and if that is not possible check out our flyer, order your free catalog and enjoy the bull sale preview video which will be available in the new year on our website, www.hill70quantock.com. There is a reason that hard working farm and ranch families have been choosing our bulls for their outfits for 53 years. The welcome mat is always out don’t hesitate to contact us today.
