LORENZ

Welcome to our 27th annual bull sale. We are experiencing exciting times in the beef business as of late and that should encourage us all to cull accordingly and clean up the pieces that don’t fit or aren’t earning their keep. The salvage value of both cows and bulls goes further now towards genetic improvement than it has in recent years, seedstock producers and commercial cattlemen alike, should take advantage of that. Quality has always reaped a premium, but now the figures are larger and the demand is greater, it is important that we take notice of that. We do not have an advantage of volume in the protein marketplace but we are in the driver seat when it comes to quality, and there is a consumer base that will continue to reward us if we continue to provide a premium product. Despite our market strength, the inflation in the world around us is evident, this should also impact our breeding decisions. Therefore, the industry is demanding low maintenance, efficient and quality bulls that sire daughters with the same attributes, if we are going to see a cowherd rebuild, and steers that are profitable for the people that make a living feeding them. We strive for cows that have maternal instinct and good udders with calves that are vigorous. A live calf of any size and quality is valuable right now; we need to wean as high of a percentage of a calf crop as possible. We also graze until well into December most years and need cows that can thrive in a lower maintenance environment but also produce enough pay weight on an annual basis. But beyond that we want quality, good fertility, phenotype, hair, muscle mass, capacity and carcass quality. We refuse to chase any single trait, but rather try to balance and combine as many of the traits listed above as possible, it is not the quickest path but we feel it is the correct direction.
We look forward to the visits regarding the offering in the coming few weeks and welcome all questions and visitors. The bulls will be semen tested, videoed and carcass ultrasounded by the middle of March and posted on DLMS.ca. Please join us for a complimentary steak dinner prior to the sale.
We look forward to hosting you on April 7th.

This would be one of the real sale features. This bull pulled ahead of the pack at about 3 weeks of age and stayed out in front all summer, his 2-year-old dam did an excellent job, weaning him with an 843lb adjusted 205-day weight and a huge index of 121. She is excellent uddered, as is her 8-year-old mother and would be one of our nicest L model’s and Resilient daughters. This bull is just as good in the flesh as he is on paper, good headed, attractive in his front and crest, level topped, clean sheathed and hairy.

Recommended for Heifers and Cows Embryo transfer son of the 2C donor who has become one of the good cows in our program. She is youthful, with a good udder and strong foot quality, particularly for an 11-year-old cow. The flush to Badlands was a big one, resulting in 15 full siblings born in 2025 and 2026, consistently low birthweight with lots of hair and a good look. Not to take away from the bulls, but the sisters are going to be the strongest part of the flush and the pedigree reads very maternal, with longevity built in.

Recommended for Cows Embryo transfer son of the herd bull producing 1Z cow. We dialed the calendar back a little bit when we decided to flush 1Z to Prowler, he was a bull we used about 13 years ago who left us a great set of daughters but also sired moderate birthweight sons that were sound with big testicles and did a lot of things right. One full brother was a feature who sold to HS Angus in last year’s sale and we have calved several full sisters



Recommended for Cows Judgement son out of one of the best Jackson daughters we have, she calved early again this year and checks a lot of boxes
this winter, they have good udders with excellent maternal instinct. This guy has some extra stretch and lots of performance with an actual weight of 1360lbs on February 9.

One of the stouter, more powerful Judgement sons. He comes by that honestly, considering how broody and powerful his Fairlass dam is. She is a very easy fleshing, good uddered female.


Recommended for Cows Embryo transfer flush mate to 18N and 95M who was a feature in last years sale. His 1Z donor dam has 33 registered progeny and has produced more front end sons than any other cow in the history of our program. She is designated as an elite cow with the Canadian Angus Association. Full sisters calved so far are very nice as well.

Twin. This young Resilient daughter, who is perfectly uddered, had a set of twin Badlands bull calves last spring as just a 2-year-old and she nursed both of them until they were 6 weeks old and we were able to pull one off. Despite that she bred back to maintain a 382 day calving interval. Unfortunately, we lost the other twin a couple months after weaning when he laid in a hole and cast himself. They were both made identical, really easy doing and soft made with extra muscle for a heifer bull pedigree.

We only have a small sample of Royalty sons this year but Royalty sons will make up our largest sire group in 2027. They have extra hair, extra dimension and are very good performing cattle – the profitable kind. This bull is thick and soggy, better than his picture.


Recommended for Cows
This Badlands son has a great look, a good head with Angus character and loads of hair, he has that extra length and all the things you want in a pen of steers to top the market. His 8 year old dam is very much the same, a power cow through and through, who has been very productive with a couple of daughters in the herd and every son has been a feature power bull in the sale.


Recommended for Cows
This was the highest gaining bull in the pen from weaning to yearling, he’s big middled and easy doing, out of a long bodied, productive United daughter. A maternal package that should ultimately sire both the right type of replacement heifer and feeder steer.

Recommended for Cows
We never got a picture of this bull but he deserved one, he has the extra mass and softness that is consistent in the Judgement sire group, grandam produced into her early teens.

Recommended for Cows
The youngest bull in the offering but a real feature. Since mid-summer this bull has walked with the big boys and kept right up. His mother has raised 3 sons and they have all been higher performing bulls and we are using one of them ourselves. 51J is a larger framed, excellent footed, power cow that we are happy to incorporate back into the program. Great performance numbers on this calf but he is better in real life than he is on paper. Wide pin set, big top, nice hip, long made, good headed and plenty masculine for his age. We think this will be one of the features to sell on April 7th.

A very complete calving ease sire that combines elite maternal qualities with functional traits that are essential at all levels of the industry. Badlands is good headed, strong footed and offers more base width and dimension than many highly predictable heifer bulls. He is out of a very influential cow that has raised multiple front end herd bulls, utilized across the industry. We are very excited to breed our first group of Badlands daughters and get them into production next year, as we feel they could be even better than their brothers.

Royalty was the high selling bull calf and our selection from the impressive Macnab Dispersal in the fall of 2024. He has an awesome Angus head with ample character, a wide muzzle and lots of masculinity. He is great haired, and has extra frame and length of body. He was an intelligent and aggressive breeder at only 13 months of age and has never looked back. We had about three daughters for every son born in his first calf crop, so the sampling in this year’s offering is small and on the younger end of the group but we feel they are an exciting indication of what’s to come. The 4 sons in the sale have already become fan favourites among visitors. Watch for Royalty sons to compose our largest sire group in 2027!

Judgement is an AI sire that we found while on a tour in Montana, we felt for a bull with his mass he was very complete, strong topped and agile. His dam is a broody cow with unmatched mass and rib shape that should add to the maternal merit of Judgement offspring. Both the male and female progeny are very easy doing and soft made with tons of center body capacity. We have calved about 15 daughters now; they are milking well and look productive at this point. As 2-year-olds they are moderate in frame and easy fleshing, it is our observation that Judgement has generally reduced teat size and improved or maintained foot quality in one generation.
