Genetic Destination Bull Sale

Tuesday, March 31, 2015 - 1 P.M. - Grenfell, SK

Welcome to the Fifth Annual “Genetic Destination” Bull Sale!A warm welcome to our 2015 Bull Sale! We would like to invite you back to Grenfell, SK for our third bull sale on the farm. We have been selling Simmental and Maine-Anjou bulls for eight years since moving to Saskatchewan and for over 20 years in Ontario prior to that. We certainly understand the cattle business and are excited about the future. The bulls will be sold with a video format in our heated sale barn and the bulls will be conveniently located in display pens outside the sale barn for you to view. We are also pleased to have DLMS - Whitney Bosovich joining us this year for those of you who can’t make it sale day to place your bids in a confidential manner. Mark Shologan is also available if you have any questions on the bulls.

Here at MFR we drive our cow herd with calving ease bulls with good birth to weaning weight spreads. The bulls are all maternally bred because we believe in the strenght of our cow family’s that are the building blocks to our genetics. From a producer standpoint, we try to make real world conditions in our operation; utilizing a rotational grazing practice throughout the summer and grazing stock piled grass and swath grazing late into the fall. Our cattle know how to use forages and our bulls are bred to be moderate, easy fleshing and fertile. We like to develop the bulls slowly on a forage ration for longevity.

There certainly continues to be some opportunity in the cattle business with the continued decrease in the North American cow herd and we would love to put you in the driver seat with your next herdsire. We would like to take the time to thank our past customers - as your success is our success. I want to stress how important it is to us to make sure you understand that we are not in this business to sell you just any bull; we want to personally fit “the right bull” into your program. If we can be of any assistance, please don’t hesitate to call. Happy customers make life long friends and we welcome you in joining us on the journey!

Please join us sale day Tuesday, March 31!

Sincerely, Scott McCormack

2015 EPD Breed Average“Expected Progeny Differences” or EPD’s are one of the many useful tools to help you in bull selection. EPD’s incorporate the individual animal with its averaged ancestry performance. EPD’s do not compare across cattle breeds, they are individual-ly based per breed. EPD’s indicate a probable variance above or below breed average for that trait for a given bull’s progeny.

RLA 721T or “Stormy” as we like to call him, was born out of my favorite black baldy cow 931J. Stormy is a total outcross, homozygous polled, hetro black bull. 721T exhibits extreme body length and is one massive middled individual. His mellow disposition and character are hard to come by. We are very impressed with how consistently he bred for us on a wide variety of cows. Stormy was sold through our 2008 sale and we are very fortunate the Blair family has allowed us to use him in our program.

Really one of the feature black bulls - a calving ease bull backed by the Opal cow family. This deep, stout hairy maternal brother to MFR Perfect Storm, sold to Dennis & Murray Clarke in our 2013 sale, is sure to be a success.

The only Mainetainer in the sale and this dark red 96X son could be something very special. His granddam 9J is still going strong here at 16 years of age. If Red Man sires calves for 16 years...well you do the math (16 years x 25 calves/year x $1500/calf = $600,000!). He is not registered but if interested he can be registered as a half-blood witht the Canadian Maine-Anjou Association

How Much Can You Afford For A Bull?We’re all probably guilty of looking at bull costs as a one-time expense – the way we view feed, for instance. In reality, however, a bull is a four- to five-year investment.

One of the interesting things about this analysis is that the average service cost per cow – when all costs are taken into account – is higher than most people would calculate. For example, using conservative production assumptions, the average service cost for a $4,500 bull that is turned out with 25 cows/year is $63.14/cow. Interestingly, however, bull cost is not a huge driver in that equation. The difference of paying $3,750 for a bull and paying $5,250 for a bull doesn’t affect the service cost per cow that dramatically.

In fact, the difference between a $3,750 bull and a $5,250 bull only moves the average cost per cow serviced by $9/cow. When one looks at today’s price levels and value differences, the higher-priced bulls are actually a whole lot better investment than the lower-priced bulls.

If a $3,750 bull with the assumptions I used was turned out with 30 cows, his service cost was $45.12/cow. If he’s turned out with 20 cows, that jumps to $67.68/cow. Another way of looking at the impact of bull price is the impact of weaning weight. How much additional weaning weight would be required to justify paying $5,250 vs. $3,750/bull, assuming all other attributes remained the same? The difference was only 12 lbs. of weaning weight!
