KAY-R CHAROLAIS

WELCOME

Welcome to the 2026 edition of the KAY-R Charolais Bull Sale. On Behalf of the entire Phillips family - Kasey, Arlana, Kord and Peri, We’d like to thank you for taking the time to review this year’s sales offering. We are very proud of the continued support that each one of you give to us, whether it be through friendship or the cattle business.

Whether you are a seedstock or commercial producer, we feel that this year’s bull pen has something to offer you. For well over 40 years we have stuck to the basics and tried to provide a product that would stand the test of time and provide increased value for you the customer. We are very proud of our cow herd and what they produce. Dispositions and udder quality have always been key traits that they must have. We work hard to produce cattle that have hair, muscle, length and calving ease. Once you go through this year’s bull pen you will notice that all of these traits are evident in each and every bull.

Congratulations to all you cowboys who stood the test of time and finally got rewarded for your years of hard work! The Recorded prices that we’ve seen across the country for all classes of cattle is just a small sample of the value that each farm family contributes to their communities. The best part of the purebred cattle business is the people that you meet. Repeat customers is our definition of success and the majority of bull pen will be sold to them. Thank you to many longtime friends and customers for your years of support.

2025 was a very successful year for us. Reid hunter has been with us for a few years now and his steer that was purchased from us was Grand Champion at the Calgary Stampede. Great Job Reid! Your hard work paid off. Our fall show and sale season was very successful. KAY-R Tremor was Champion bull at both Farmfair and Agribition and went on to be Supreme Champion at Agribition as well. Truly a dream that came true for our family.

We welcome everyone to come tour the bull pen anytime prior to the sale. If you are unable to make it to the sale, please feel free to contact Myself or Kord or any of the T Bar C Crew at any time and we’ll do our best to help you out.

Best Regards, Kasey Phillips

Kay-R Charolais has earned a reputation for blending elite genetics with a disciplined, forward-thinking breeding program. That approach was on full display this past November, when a graduate of this very sale captured the 2025 Canadian Western Agribition Supreme Champion Bull title - an achievement that underscores the consistency and quality behind the Kay-R prefix.

This year’s sale is led by two impressive brothers out of the great Covergirl female, a cornerstone cow within the program. One is sired by Padra and the other by Pascal, offering two powerful genetic options from a proven and highly respected maternal line.

Adding further excitement to this offering are the first sons of Frontier ever offered for sale. Frontier, a past high seller, has generated significant anticipation, and this initial group of sons lives up to expectations with added power, muscle, and presence. The front end of this year’s lineup is as stout and powerful as Kay-R Charolais has assembled to date, featuring bulls with extra mass, depth, and performance. At the same time, the offering maintains excellent balance, with several calving ease options available - providing flexibility for both heifer and cow breeding programs. Several highlights in the calving ease group are sired by their new low birth sire Counting Up.

This set of bulls reflects the careful selection, proven cow families, and progressive mindset that define Kay-R Charolais. Buyers can evaluate this offering with confidence, knowing these bulls are backed by results and a program committed to producing cattle that excel in today’s industry.

Hopefully you can join us sale day to see this powerful lineup of leading Charolais sires in their natural environment, with their mothers close by for those of you who want to view the maternal side of your new herd sire. If you are unable to make the trip and require any assistance, feel free to contact any of the T Bar team as we are more than happy to assist you any way we can, in a confident and professional manner.

Kay-R the Advantage

Proven Performance

Kay-R Charolais cattle are built on decades of performance-based selection. With a focus on weaning weights, feed efficiency, and carcass quality, Kay-R genetics are trusted by both commercial and seedstock producers to deliver results that pay.

Industry-Leading Sires

From powerful herd bulls to record-setting AI sires, Kay-R has developed and sold some of the most influential bulls in the Charolais breed. Their genetics continue to shape programs across Canada and beyond, offering consistency, muscle, and growth.

Functional

Cattle That Work

Structural soundness, maternal strength, and disposition are never compromised. Kay-R cattle are designed to thrive in real-world ranch conditions, offering longevity, fertility, and the ability to raise heavy calves year after year.

Generations of Commitment

Family-owned and operated for generations, Kay-R Charolais is a name built on integrity, innovation, and results. Their commitment to customer satisfaction and genetic advancement remains at the core of every calf they raise.

WELCOME FROM BULLSEYE FEEDS

It has been a pleasure working with the crew at Kay-R on their nutrition program. They are known for raising elite seedstock and this remains true for this year’s high quality, consistent bull offering. I hope you can see this impressive set of Charolais bulls in person.

The bull feeding program is built to maximize forage utilization and gut health. All forages are sampled and analyzed to ensure quality feed sources are used. Once the calves are weaned, they are slowly transitioned to a TMR. The TMR is forage based and is designed to promote lean muscle growth, allowing the bulls to express their genetic potential. Rumen health is of upmost importance, which is why suitable protein sources and proper starch levels are fed to the bulls. Organic minerals are used both on the cow herd and sale bulls to ensure proper immune function an

If you have any questions about the nutrition program, feel free to reach out. Buy with confidence knowing the bulls have been developed on a balanced nutrition program.

Good luck on sale day!

SUPREME CHAMPION

SUPREME GENETICS

IN THE FUTURE

KAYR DARK HORSE 19N 1

KAY-R Dark Horse 19N is a massive, soft made, meat machine. His amount of true muscle and expression is extraordinary. Dark Horse has a big square foot with ideal flex and build in his leg design. Padra has been a popular sire group over the years here for their added growth, hair, structure and muscle. We feel 19N very strongly has all those great attributes that will add real value to his future calf crops. His added look and herd bull presence set him apart as a truly attractive and powerful individual. Him and his maternal brother are the first two ET calves off our KAY-R Covergirl 26Y donor cow and they are both headliners for the same reasons. Another highly notable maternal brother is KAY-R 26F who has been a dominant sire for Johnson Ranching, two Rico daughters sold extremely well this fall with one bringing over 50K. True consistency and quality are bred into Dark Horse that have proved themselves for years.

KAYR IRON HORSE

1801N

SPARROWS LIRIANO 660D SPARROWS PASCAL 239K

KAY-R Iron Horse 1801N is without a doubt one of the best bulls we have ever raised. He has everything that a bull needs to have to leave an impact for years to follow. Iron Horse is built as big,bold and soggy as you are going to find anywhere. His depth of flank, body and forerib is truly remarkable for how much raw muscle and width he has. When you analyze 1801N from behind the amount of width and dimension in his lower quarter and rib cage is truly abundant. Pascal was selected to add hair, shape, and structure, and 1801N has all that and more. Him and his maternal brother are the first two ET calves off our KAY-R Covergirl 26Y donor cow and they are both headliners for the same reasons . Another highly notable maternal brother is KAY-R 26F who has been a dominant sire for Johnson Ranching, tw o Rico daughters sold extremely well this fall with one bringing over 50K. True consistency and quality are bred into Iron Horse that have proved themselves for years. To top it all off he has a very appealing set of num bers as well.

TUCSON 142N 3

KAYR

KAY-R Tucson 142N has been a high quality individual his whole life. His presence, build and natural width and softness make him a very exciting herd bull. 142N is extremely attractive from his skull shape through his neck and shoulder all the way back to his big stout hip. You have to appreciate how much real power, hair and look is all there in one sound functional package. Tucson maternal grand sire KAY-R Good Key 11G was a bull we utilized through AI for his incredible look, power and maternal strengths. We have a handful of females off him in production and they all are beautiful females that consistently produce great offspring. There is a ton of quality and consistency in 142N both phenotypically and on his EPD profile. Top 2% for YW, top 4% for MK,MWWT and SC, top 10% for CW and TSI, top 15% for FAT, and top 20% for WW and REA.

Fortress has a big stout hip and has a ton of depth in his flank and centre body. He has an ideal set of feet and legs, and comes from a great cow family. Last year a maternal brother was a high seller in the bull sale, this year a maternal brother to his dam KAY-R Emmett 706N sells as a highlight. The Pascal Commissioner cross is proving to be very consistent and very high quality. His numbers are outstanding, being in the top 4% for MWWT, top 5% for YW, top 10% for WW and MK, top 15% for TSI, top 20% for CE,SC,CW and REA, and top 25% for FAT.

KAYR OUTLAW 800N

KAY-R Outlaw 800N and the whole Frontier sire group are standouts in both the bull and heifer pens. 800N has everything a true herd bull needs. He is packed full of muscle and mass in his hip and center body. He has a very noticeable presence that demands your attention and keeps it. And most importantly his foot and structure is exactly how it needs to be to leave an impact for years to come. His dam comes from a cow family that has always produced high end livestock with maternal brothers selling at the top of bull sale for many years and KAY-R Harrison 814J. You will notice the impact he left on the cow side of lots of bulls throughout the sale. Not only is 800N a phenotypic standout but he also has an incredible set of numbers being in the top 3% for YW, top 5% for WW, top 10% for REA, top 15 % for CW, top 20% for CE and TSI, top 30% for MWWT, top 35% for FAT and top 40% for BW.

KAY-R Brantley 320N is truly an impressive individual. He is big, stout, hairy and attractive in his design. 320N carries himself on a big foot with a great shape and build off his hind leg and knee. He is a young march calf that truly excelled in terms of growth and overall power. His big square hip, soggy middle and attractive front end truly allow him to stand out.

KAY-R Counting Up 307N is an exciting young herdsire that puts everything together properly. A big focus in our cowherd is maternal strength and we believe this young calving ease sire combines that focus with added per formance in an extremely attractive build. Counting Up’s dam is a standout as one of our favourite young females for her depth of body,structure and udder quality. Commissioner on the bottom side of his pedigree only adds extra dependability for extra calving ease without sacrificing growth and the important fundamentals. 307N’s great great granddam is our Covergirl 26Y donor cow, and I’m sure you have picked out her two ET sons and his great granddam also has a top end bull on offer this year. For us a great cow family is a must an d there are years of predictability and profitability in the cow family behind Counting Up 307N.

KAY-R Keynote 7600N is backed by years and years of quality and unmatched consistency. He has so much depth of body and flank but doesn’t give up any length of quarter or length of body. Keynote is very attractive in his build but stays packed full of muscle and mass in his hip, rib cage and fore rib. 7600N has a truly exceptional foot allowing his leg structure to be extremely ideal. I could talk forever about his quality and how dominant of a producer his dam is. Longevity and standout quality are what his dam KAY-R Annabelle 812U has done for years. 812U was the only daughter off the matriarch 748L cow, and 812U has built the annabelle cow family all from natural born calves, this is her first ET calf to sell. Keynote will without a doubt leave a lasting impact in your bull pen and have unmatched potential for maternal qualities. His numbers back everything up being in the top 3% for DOC, top 10% for MARB,top 15% for MCE, top 20% for CE, top 25% for CW, top 30% for BW and TSI, top 35% for WW, top 40% for YW and SC, and top 45% for MK.

He is very square and robust in his hip design with a great set of running gear. We added his sire Strongside 2125K for his foot quality, hair, and depth of quarter and body. His calf crop is very impressive both in the bull and heifer pens. We will have nearly 40 calves off Strongside this year and the vigor, hair and consistent birth weights have us confident in his abilities for years to come.

KAY-R Hardin 129N is a big framed and big bodied bull that is one of the highest performing bulls in the sale this year. He has a big hip and a ton of muscle over his back. His structure and foot shape are incredible which allows this extra big, stout and hairy herdbull to cruise around with extreme ease. Hardin’s sire was a past high seller we used and have continued to use for their extra performance, mass, and maternal strength. A maternal brother last year was a high seller to CK Stock Farms. 129N has the quality and consistency to be at the top of your list this year as well.

MARKSMAN

KAY-R Marksman 211N has a bright future ahead of him. This is a new sire group and we are beyond impressed with the quality and consistency this group has.They are long bodied with big stout hips and back. 211N’s extras make him one of my favourite bulls on offer. He has a ton of added look and quality in his build and design with a big wooly haircoat. He has a presence in his head and neck design that is masculine yet extremely attractive. He has a big soft belly with added muscle and mass. His dam is no other than a Commissioner/Classic cow.

KAYR AMIGO 19J SKW MARKSMAN 95L

REBA 90G

KAY-R Decker 264N is an extraordinarily big, stout and robust b ull with all the tools needed to leave a positive impact on his calf crop. He has all the red meat and true power you could want and need while maintaining the proper angles to his skeleton design. 264N has a really attract ive skull shape and the proper structure off both ends. His dam has worked her way to being one of our favourite young cows with her foot quality, attractive design, added rib and hip shape with a tremendous milk and udder quality. His granddam was used in our ET program raising multiple bulls working in purebred and commercial operations. Decker’s EPD profile is just as big time as he is himself being in the top 50 percentile or above in every trait. Top 3% REA, top 5% TSI, top 10% for MK,MCE and MWWT, top 15% for CE, top 20% for SC and FAT, to p 30% for YW and CW, top 35% for MARB, top 40% for BW and YW, top 50% for DOC. Looks and reads like a big time herdbull.

LOOKS AND READS LIKE A

KAY-R Marksman 284N is a really smooth made eye appealing bull that is correct from the ground all the way up. He has an extra shot of length in his rib cage without giving up any depth or softness. He is one of the biggest hipped bulls in the offering and carries his muscle through his top and all the way down to his lower quarter. His dam is a young female from the Annabelle cow family and sired by commissioner. KAY-R Fruition 26K, a past high seller who is doing a tremendous job breeding, was a Commissioner off an Annabelle female. 284N is big performing bull with extra muscle, maternal quality and consistency in production.

KAY-R Emmett 706N is a bull that offers as much as any. He is a March 18th calf that I believe has a ton to offer in terms of added growth and quality for not just keeping up with bulls up to 60 days older but thriving in the same environment as them. He is as deep and soggy as you could ever want with a big hip and extra width in his hook and pins. A maternal sister sired by Mescalito which would make her a ¾ sister to 706N was shown successfully as a two year old in 2024 winning grand or reserve division multiple times. Emmett will be a bull that adds depth and mass into his calf crop and his daughters will be heavy milking with impeccable udder quality.

UNIVERSAL

KAY-R Universal 753N is a truly exciting herdsire prospect backed by a great cow family that continually raises bulls and females that standout year after year. A maternal brother is KAY-R Griffin 753J, a sire in Semex Beef that has been used with great success. Universal has so much length and extension but stays soft and robust in his center body and hip. He has an extremely attractive head and neck matched up super structure. We are very happy with the Global calves and Universal reminds us a lot of his sire but with added length and size. 753N is just a march calf that has more than enough growth to be a dominant herdsire without sacrificing eye appeal and strong maternal attributes. Top 3% for CE and MARB, top 5% for WW, top 10% for MCE, SC and TSI, top 20% for YW, top 25% for BW and MWWT, and top 30% for CW

KAY-R About Time 162N is a bull that I think offers as much value as any. He is one of the most eye appealing bulls in the sale. He has a head and neck design that is very tidy and attractive. 162N has a huge hip and stays as square as you can make one. He has great foot quality and is built square of both ends in motion. His angles are built near perfect and that allows him to be very hard to put a hole in. His dam is a beautiful uddered commissioner daughter that is extra hairy and soft in her center body. If you are searching for herdbull that has a true outcross pedigree I think you should come take a look. We always have Coffee or something else to get you through the day.

KAY-R Long Mile 6161N is a bull that is very exciting for a number of reasons. He is extremely high quality with a ton of muscle and depth. From the side he is long and extended but stays very smooth made, especially for the amount of added growth and muscle he has. 6161N has a huge hip and carries a ton of muscle in his lower quarter. You really have to appreciate how square and lever he stays for just how much shape he has. Long Mile has a great set of feet and legs that when in motion are flawless. His sire has been a very popular sire known for his consistency and great phenotype. Long Mile’s dam has been my most consistent producer in the angus herd with every daughter retained in the herd and all her sons are the first ones picked out. He has the look, pedigree, maternal strength and performance to be a big time herd bull.
