Welcome to the 20th Annual “Best of the Breeds” Bull Sale on Sunday, March 24, 2024, at Heartland Livestock, Yorkton, Saskatchewan. It has taken twenty years...but well worth the “weight!”
2024 is the largest and strongest lineup ever presented by the Best of the Breed consignors. In the past twenty years this sale has been a “onestop” shopping center in supplying value added sires for both commercial and purebred sectors alike. These breeds, the Whites, the Sims, the Gups and the Red and Black Angus compliment themselves in producing the ideal feeder calf and replacement heifers.
The Charolais offering is exciting...the Harcourts offer sons of Summit, Badge, and Patriot...homo polled, full of muscle and capacity. Dog Patch introduces a new outcross in Ruger, and the big weaning sire Highlight as well as a large lineup of sons by the predictable Houston. A great set of bulls with breeder potential. The folks at Fairview bring the strongest set of bulls since inception. What a Fleck/Fullblood offering they present. Mainly polled, and homo polled, this is one of the largest offerings of Fullbloods in the country. The Purebreds are hairy, rugged, and will work with all types of programs...reds, blacks, and blazes. Fairview can fill your Simmental needs.
Blair and family bring you a top set of Gelbvieh prospects sired by Hitch and Element. All homo polled...red in colour with one black heifer bull. These bulls are optimum in calving ease and will add pounds at weaning...you’ll want to keep their daughters for replacement pastures.
Black Ridge Angus offer sons of Homegrown, a new sire in their program...you will like their style, shape and hair with optimal birth weight. Sons of Bravo will add power, while Bankroll will add length and the DeWalt’s will add maternal replacement strength into his female progeny.
The boys at Twin Heritage offer an exciting presentation sired by Helix...bulls with calving ease and maternal strength where you will want to keep all the daughters. Consistent in type and kind the Helix sons will add style and eye appeal.
Plan to be with us on March 24th in person, on the phone or online, and do not hesitate to give any of us at T Bar a call as we can assist you with your purchases in a professional and confidential manner.

What a great time to be in the beef business. Long overdue we all say! With all projections saying this will last for 3 years or more it pays to invest in good bulls. Bulls with calving ease, performance and fertility. Our bulls offer all three traits in one athletic package. There is a bull for every budget in our group, but no matter what you choose you can be confident he will work for you and produce a calf that is first cut at the auction mart. Char cross calves bring a premium because feed lots love them for how they perform and yield. Bonus is they don’t need a tag to tell you the breed of the sire. Char bulls stamp their calves no matter what breed the cow is. Take advantage of what Charolais has to offer. We look forward to seeing you all sale day!

Renegade is a great young Summit son that will throw calves that will have extra hair and big tops. Sound from the ground up, this herd bull will work on any type of cow.

His calves are consistent in their fertility and soundness as well as phenotype.
Foundation is a deep sided correct son of the Summit bull. HBC Summit topped our sale at $32,000 to Sonderup Charolais and this herdsire is a typical son. Hairy, correct with a big scrotal.

Moderate, sound, a heavy milker, with a perfect udder and teat size.

Welcome to the 20‘th edition of the Best of the Breeds Bull Sale. Thank you to our repeat buyers, bidders and the new customers that support our program. We focus our breeding on the main areas that cattlemen look at when purchasing a new bull; calving ease, growth and performance, hair, soundness and docility. We provide stout, moderate framed bulls that can get out and service your cows.
This year the majority of our bulls are sired by our two senior herd sires. LEO Houston and LAE Highlight that pass on attributes like great hair, polled performance and docility. Both bulls are known for their exceptional calving ease and structural soundness, thickness and hair coats that make today’s Charolais cross calves in demand. We also used some exciting new AI sires to compliment our own bull battery. Again focusing on new genetics that still provide the key attributes we look for.
As an added feature we are offering a group of coming 2 year old virgin bulls. As many of you know we keep some of the younger calves back as insurance bulls for our customers in case they have a wreck during the summer. Our customers can be confident knowing we have bulls ready to get you through a troubled time. They were developed on free choice hay and we started them on screening pellets this December. These bulls are sound and ready to go to work, and we are proud to offer them. Please call or drop by the farm if you have questions or to view the bulls and their mothers. See you in Yorkton!
