FROM THE DESK OF T BAR C...
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.

FORDEN FAIRVIEW FARM LTD.
Welcome to our 20th Annual Bull Sale. It is great to look back and see where this sale has come from to now be one of the most diverse bull sales around, by breed, quality and quantity. We have been in the Simmental business since the mid 70’s and are soon approaching out 50th year in the breed. We greatly appreciate the loyalty and support we have received over the years and look forward to meeting everyone at the sale on March 24th.
This year’s group of bulls is the most diverse we have ever offered with new AI and walking sires plus our largest selection of ET bulls. If you’re looking for homo polled fleckvieh bulls we have a wide variety to choose from and possibly the most you will find at any sale in the country. We have been building our polled fleckvieh program for over 20 years, long before it was popular. We also have a good selection of red and black bulls, providing the full spectrum available within the breed. All bulls are DNA tested for colour, dilutor and polled or are known by pedigree. This is an investment we make each year offering you more certainty in your breeding program. We moved to a TMR ration for the bulls this year, consisting of barley & alfalfa silage, hay, super oats and a protein pellet. The bulls are on a full herd health program and will be double vaccinated with fusogard to reduce the chances of foot rot.
Please join us for our Bull Pen Open House March 16 & 17 1-5 PM at the farm. This is a great opportunity to look over the bulls prior to the sale as well as walk through the cow herd to see the genetic value that comes along with the bulls. Follow us on Facebook “Forden Fairivew Farm – Simmentals” to stay up to date with our program. Videos will be available on our Facebook page, DLMS and buyagro.com in early March. You can also scan the QR code below for the direct video link.

We start our bulls off with this long yearling Theory son. Energy is a powerful, hairy bull with a huge hip and chalk full of muscle. His dam was born into our fall program and continues to be a top female in that program. She has a perfect udder with great teat size, placement, attachment and milk. Energy’s grand dam, Jane, has given us 4 daughters and they are turning into very good females. We are carefully building our fall program to offer bulls with extra size and maturity that will cover more cows with added peace of mind. Energy will sire a tremendous set of heifers and bulls.

These two flush mates are sired by our Theory herdsire who is full brother to the $51,500 Evolution bull we sold a couple years ago to Keet Simmentals. Their dam is our Lexi donor who has put bulls into top commercial and purebred herds the past few years and now resides at Crossroad Farms. These bulls are very similar in type – long bodied, big topped, hairy with great dark color and heavy pigmented. Force and Element also have three full sisters in the replacement pen that we are quite excited about. You will drive many miles to find Homo Polled 100% fleckvieh bulls of this type and kind.

Big Bang is another extra age bull from our fall program. He is smooth polled, smooth made with good length and thickness deep into his quarter. His sire Theory, has worked very well in our program adding muscle, making great females, providing ease of calving and of course leaving all his calves polled and well pigmented. His first sons in our sale last year averaged over $11,000. Big Bang’s dam is a sister to Fairview Philosophy who has been used in over 30 herds across Canada and is known to shorten gestation and reduce birth weight. It is hard to find bulls with this dark liver red color, we think you will like him when you see him in person.

It is very rewarding when your heifers can wean bull calves at nearly 850 lbs. Vito’s dam is a beautiful uddered FGAF Passport daughter who did a bang up job raising this fella. As mentioned, Philosophy has proven himself to be a calving ease bull with performance and Vito will follow in the same footsteps. He has a balanced set of EPDs with good calving ease and has maternal traits in the top 10% (Milk, MCE, MWWT). Temperament is one of the key features of our breeding program. We focus on good-natured cattle that are easy to work with and Vito demonstrates this quality very well.

Here is a rare opportunity to select from 5 full brothers who are all homo polled and full fleckvieh. These bulls are backed by our proven Payroll herdsire and a pedigree full of donor cows (Eloquence, Sering, She Devil). Payroll sons are long-bodied, heavy muscled, highly pigmented and you never have to worry about scrotal measurements on them. Payroll has sired multiple high selling bulls going to top purebred and commercial operations. Their dam, Eloquence, has been our top donor for a number of years. We’ve flushed her to numerous bulls and every combination clicks. Eloquence daughters are powerful, sound footed females with excellent udders and we have 20 of them in the herd, including 5 full sisters to these bulls. It is an ongoing debate within our family and with visitors as to which one of these five bulls is the best. Stop in and decided for yourself which one fits your breeding program. The demand for polled fleckvieh bulls has never been higher and opportunities like this don’t come along every day.

Hollywood has the presence and stature that makes him the star of the pen. Being the first Manhattan calf born at FFF, we were excited as Hollywood had that wide top and thick butt as a calf and has been a standout since day one. His dam is a good uddered cow we bought from Elliott Simmentals a number of years ago. She has given us four bull calves that have sold through the sale and her daughters are very nice females as well. Hollywood is smooth polled, heavy muscled with a big round hip. He is a very powerful polled Fleckvieh bull that is worth the drive.

Another good pair of Manhattan sons coming from a powerful, nice uddered, heavy milking daughter from our Sering cow family. Las Vegas was raised on their dam and Cairo was moved to another cow that did a nice job on him. These twin bulls are long-spined with a well-rounded rear quarter and heavy hair coat. We have been very impressed with Manhattan’s consistency of birth weight and calving ease his first two seasons. His average birth weight has been 95 lbs over the two years and the calves come easy and are vigorous at birth. Cairo and Las Vegas are sure to add some growth and pounds to their calves and will make some nice daughters too.

Here is another Jeremiah son out of a good Payroll female. We don’t get many calves marked like Odyssey, but is he ever good. He is thick, deep and loaded with muscle. Often times polled fullblood bulls with one horned parent will have scurs to some extent. Most times they are small loose scurs and hardly noticeable without clipping. These bulls will sire as many polled calves as a smooth polled bull and his daughters will rarely show scurs based on how the genetics work. Besides these bulls, we have a Jeremiah heifer in the replacement pen. Be sure to ask about her when you stop in as we are quite excited about her.

Pirate is another Man O War son with great depth to his middle and a wide top. He was a twin to heifer and his momma decided she liked his sister better. We moved him to another cow, but that cow decided to wean him in the middle of summer so he’s not the largest bull in the pen. He is however put together well, has that sharp looking blaze face and would work well on a herd of black cows to add some chrome.
HOMO POLLED HETERO BLACK
Siege is another thick-made, wide topped Warrior son who is the only bull in the sale with a “show” life. Him and is mom were Carter’s 4-H cow-calf pair project last year, so he will be quiet and easy to handle. A maternal brother sold to Tanner Walter in last year’s sale. Siege’s granddam, Tracy, is our first donor on the purebred side of our program. Watch for her Black baldie Sysco sons in the sale next year, they already stand out. If you’re building a herd and retaining females, Siege is an excellent choice to get you there.

It is easy to spot these Warrior sons when walking through the pen. They all carry added muscle along with a wide top and thick quarter. Spear’s grand dam is one of our favorite black cows who has a top Man O War heifer in the replacement pen and an exciting Scorpion bull calf at side now. Spear is a solid choice for you next herd bull.

Jupiter is our only black Eclipse son in the sale and we are sure you will like him. He doesn’t carry as much size as other bulls but he is chalk full of muscle on his moderate frame. His Redstream dam is built like he is, stout and full of capacity. Jupiter’s calves will come easy and have lots of grow to them.
