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. Longevity is built in as his mother is still producing top calves at the age of 11 years old. His sire was our high seller to Sonderup Charolais in Nebraska a few years ago. 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. Fertility is high on the Summit sons as is the docility that you can’t beat. He will add hair depth and shape. His mother is made as good as you can make them. Moderate, sound, a heavy milker, with a perfect udder and teat size.
DOUBLE POLLED 2 2
CHARBURG
302L is a calving ease bull that will still give you the performance that we expect when using a Charolais herd sire. He has enough frame to breed mature cows and will work great on a set of Angus/Simmental cows.
3RD GEN. POLLED
HBC ROYAL 719E - DAM
GENETIC PROFILE - 320L
Rocket has the most shape and overall completeness of the whole pen. He is super attractive and very sound from the ground up. For those of you that are looking for an option to run with some heifers, this guy fits the bill perfectly. You can use him on any type of cow. He will add hair and correct faults. Moderate and quiet. Just take a look at his genetic profile. His mother is a tank of a female that produces a good one every year. She is also in the top 2% for weaning, 3% yearling and top 2% for scrotal.
HOMO POLLED
HBC G2 430B
317L is one of our first LT Badge sons to sell. He has extra hair and performance. He is sound structurally and homozygous polled. This guy will work great on mature cows giving you extra pounds on your calf crop.
HOMO POLLED
Riptide is one of the longest and smoothest bulls we have this year. He has a great foot under him and a big set of red nuts. Riptide was shown successfully at Prince Albert Fair this past summer where he was named Grand Champion Charolais bull. His dam 252H is fast becoming one of the best cows on the place. She was high selling bred heifer 3 years ago from the Steppler program. Consistently producing top dollar offspring is what we strive to have in our herd and 252H is one of those cows.
307L is right at the top of the pen for performance combined with calving ease. He is long sided and very correct with a nice big foot. He has a great haircoat and that herd bull skull. The dam of 307L is 9 years old and still has a perfect udder and great feet. She is also one of our top producing cows. She is the dam of our last 2 entries in the Superstar Sale. Check him out. He is a can’t miss herd sire.
3RD GEN POLLED
308L is the biggest topped stoutest bull in the pen. He has incredible muscle expression he is sure to pass to his calves. Deep bodied, long spined, good haired, correct and quiet are a few of the words I would use to describe him. He is a maternal brother to our donor cow HBC Temptation 802F. Cow family behind this sire is top end.
