2025 Sale Bulls grazing in June (click here).


Since 2013 we have utilized an online bidding format to market our long yearling bulls. This venue has proven successful for us, our customers and our bulls. It’s cost effective, low stress and a fair way of valuing our offering without all the hubbub and confusion a live sale brings. Closer to sale time we picture and video each bull and add some pertinent foot notes and data on them and their dams. We still create a catalog, so reach out to us to be include on the mailing list. Look for our offering online 3-4 weeks prior to the sale or better yet, come view them in person anytime!

What to expect from our bull’s:
We believe in true representation and do not clip our bull’s hair or trim their feet - ever. They are burly, hard muscled cowboy bulls ready for the real world. We never push for excessive gains, so you won’t find the fat waddle types here. Just realistic, properly developed, guaranteed sound bulls ready for their workload.

Bull development timeline:

-All our cows calve out on pasture for a quick 45–50-day period. From birth to weaning, the only feed the cattle see is green grass and free choice, loose mineral.

-After weaning, calves are put on free choice hay and 1.5lbs of a protein and mineral supplement.

-Weather dependant, winter feeding is typically complete by mid April and calves are moved to stockpiled perennial pastures with free choice loose mineral. They seamlessly transition to summer grazing as the green spring flush begins to dominate the forage sward. From here to fall dormancy, they rely solely on the forage growth nature provides.

-November, bulls are brought home and re-introduced to dry hay and haylage and 2lbs of the protein and mineral supplement while they continue to graze until the snow limits their ability.

-After the bull sale, bulls left here are sent to stockpile forage until delivery.

*Bull sale is always the third Friday of March*

REF SIRES

forte5s GBT Elevate 1850

Sinclair Plains Boss 5BO2
AAA Reg #18152044

  • A herd building producer of outstanding females. Not a surprise, considering his nicely populated lineage of intense Emulation genetics that trace an incredible 45 times to the maternal phenom, Emulation 31. The first 5BO2 daughters are coming seven years old in 2024. He does an excellent job of passing on the sought after Emulation attributes of teat and udder quality, fertility and that pleasing feminine, true maternal look. 5BO2 was a very athletic, dirt pawing, bellowing breeding machine that successfully served us for 8 breeding seasons-longevity! In that time, he quickly built us a base of highly productive females we are excited to carry forward with. -semen rights with Sinclair Cattle Co, Wyoming.
GBT Elevate 1850
AAA Reg# 19646213
  • The first 1850 sons to sell in the 2023 sale were met with very high acceptance. Very few sires offer this kind of ability to consistently stamp their offspring. He truly adds capacity, growth-without added frame, ease of flesh, breed character and will fix disposition in one cross. We calved his first daughters in 2023 and they check the box for super ideal udders with that calm maternal intelligence. His next hurdle is the test of longevity. With a stacked pedigree of persistently productive and industry wide proven cows and bulls like X-Plus 1549, Emulation EXT, Emulation XXP, 2 shots of Right Time, Really Windy, Ruby Belle 1279, Countess 138W, two shots of our efficiency matron, Ruby Belle 134L and Willabar Right Time 34E, he is about as royally bred as one can make them. All signs are indicating that Elevate 1850 may very well be the next chapter to our program! -owned with Running Rabbit Ranching, Alberta.

forte5s GBT Winner 1724

GBT X-Plus 1549
AAA Reg #18986503

  • One of the most predictable breeding bulls we have ever raised and was our pick to replace his impressive sire, Sinclair X-Plus 1XX30. 1549's stable siring ability to consistently add fleshing ease, moderate frame, place brilliant udders in his daughters, improve disposition, rib capacity and fix poor headed cattle is hard to top. At 11 years of age, his fleshing ease and efficiency dam is still in production. 1549 is the sire to our new rising star, GBT Elevate 1850 and has genetic influence in several bulls selling.

GBT Winner 1724

  • Winner 1724 was one impressive character and our pick to replace his sire. 1724's dam, at 11 years of age is as good footed as any 11-year-old out there and has an udder that held up with her longevity. 1724 progeny are very much in the median of the herd in terms of growth, which in our experience, are the ones that tend to have staying power and are genetically most suited to their environment. Time will tell as we get more daughters moving into production.
