Our family would like to welcome everyone to our newly named Buckskin Bull sale with the same progressive herd improving bulls as we’ve made over the last 16 years! Ourselves & our partners at Limestone felt this was an appropriate time to consolidate our sale partnership and we sincerely appreciate the support for our cattle over the years.
We recognize there are many bull buying opportunities, so the confidence & loyalty that you, our past bull customers have shown us, is genuinely valued when placing your trust in our genetics. Thank You.
We are both very pleased to announce that our bulls are now not only raised here at home in BC but also winter developed on test at the Semlin Valley Ranch in Cache Creek BC & a massive Thank You goes out to both Pam & Jordan Krause, & all their staff at the ranch for their efforts, help & changes to the norm. This was a massive leap of faith for us & for Semlin to feed both the Reds & Whites for a bull sale‘just up the road’.
Our family takes pride in our sire groups and the uniformity of our bull pen, with the goal to sell only working bulls of the utmost quality. We are as proud of the last bull in the ring as the first, and this ensures everyone at the sale has an opportunity to own superior bulls at reasonable prices.
As always, our focus is the commercial cow/calf producer, whether it’s improvement of the herd or terminal for the bottom line next fall. This remains our anchor for continuing to produce easy fleshing, muscular cattle, which carry outstanding maternal traits on arguably some of the strongest feet around.

We believe that good walking cattle breed better & add more weight which is what our offspring have become known for. The bull sale decisions begin on the 1st day, if we have to help with the calving, they do not make the sale. Equally important is the vigour the calf displays upon their birth under maternal cows doing their jobs…we want the calf standing and milking quickly. Our bulls are made to do the work for you, not you workin’ for
We use walking herd sires ourselves, again only using AI on proven bulls. Doing this ensures that we are A. offering bulls that are dependable with “real world” functionality & B. we can back up the docility, fertility & genetic features. This year we are featuring 4 sire groups of Apex 82G, our newest home raised & powerful prospect Emphatic 37H, Glint 7G, & our senior stud Bono 215D as well as two AI sires in Bank Note 284G & Northbound F344.
A big thanks to our night cow/calf gal, Neila Schaad… our nephew Wyatt Strachan for still, all these years later giving us a hand even with his newborn son arriving!
We have some excellent help this year for our sale. Please contact Jay Sibbald, myself or Craig for any assistance. If you should have any questions, we’d be happy to visit anytime.
Please join us for a tour of the bulls the week prior & on sale day for our already renowned BBQ & visit!
Brad, Aleta, Hayes & CowanCalving Ease is often related to the birth weight of a bull, and while this is partly true, there are other factors that influence CE. The dam and her management are at least 50% to 60% of the CE. The consistency & consideration of the following will also influence birth weight.
* BW’s of the sire and dam
* BW epd
* CE & Maternal CE epd
* Sires calving inclinations
* Sires physical confirmation
* Nutrition, gestation, environment & latitude
* Breed composition
* Hybrid vigour
We rate each bull in the sale based on our recorded information & personal knowledge of our herd . Each year, one of the more frequent questions is which of bulls will work best on their heifers? Of course, only that person inherently knows their own heifers enough to make that call. We try our best to evaluate each bull in our sale to assist you in your choices, using our guidelines of:
* Cow Bull
** For use on Cows & larger framed Heifers
*** Recommended for Heifers
EPDs listed in this catalogue for the Red Angus cattle are the BOLT EPDs that are current to February 2023. BOLT is the genetic evaluation system that is used by the Red Angus Association of America, & most closely resembles the historical EPDs on Red Angus cattle in Canada. These are the EPDs that these cattle would have in the RAAA herdbook.
On behalf of the Bohrson Marketing team we would like to welcome you to The Buckskin Bull Sale.
On offer is an excellent group of bulls from both breeds with emphasis on calving ease, maternal genetics, temperament, performance and structure. If you ever get a chance to tour both cow herds I highly recommend it. You will see the quality of the cow herds that transmit that quality to todays bulls.
Please join us on sale day and feel free to contact anyone from Heart of the Valley Angus, Limestone Charolais or Bohrson Marketing for any questions you may have regarding the sale offering.
All the bulls will be available for early viewing (please call Craig) at the Semlin Valley Ranch in Cache Creek, BC until the 22nd of March, and then at the Clinton Rodeo Grounds just south of Clinton, BC as of the 23rd of March until the sale.
Sale day weights, scrotals & sale order will be posted on both the fb pages of Heart of the Valley Farms & Limestone Charolais, and available by email or text at request on Friday evening the 24th of March. Hard copies will be available the morning of the sale.

Emphatic was a sale feature of our 2021 sale & we are overly excited to introduce his offspring for sale.

He’s packin’ lots of rib, full on proud character, with big time Performance on wicked great feet, weaning off his dam 20Y at 902lbs, so we naturally retained the walking interest in him when we found a partner that were offside excited to use him as an AI sire. His progeny are a lock to be that kind of value in your herd too!

We would like to welcome you to the 1st Buckskin Bull Sale. As we sit back and reflect on our first year as Charolais breeders, we are proud of the steps we took to get here. We took a giant leap in the breed with the purchase of our herd bull SOS Timber 88J. We sent him on the show trail which paid off with a Supreme Champion Bull at the Dawson Creek Exhibition. Then on to Toronto for the 100th Royal Winter Fair where he showed extremely well and took the top honours of National Charolais Champion. With all that we have accomplished and tan and silver calves topping the market across Canada, we are excited to see what 2023 will bring to the ranching world. We are also excited for the 2024 year. We have Timber calves on the ground and they look phenominal. With genetics like that you can’t go wrong. So with that being said, we hope to see you at the Clinton Rodeo Grounds on March 25 for our sale. After the sale, there will be dinner and refreshments.
Thank you for your support.

Wow what a bull! Karl started out with a nice birth weight of 99lbs, a weaning weight of 870lbs, and is definitely excelling in the bullpen. He exhibits a huge top, tons of natural muscling, is deep bodied and has performance written all over him. If you sell your calves by the pound then I strongly suggest looking up LIME Karl 7K.
This is a bull that is a must see. He has a huge top, smooth shoulders and a head that ranchers love. This bull has depth of rib that you could project movies on.
