VALLEY VIEW CHAROLAIS RANCH HISTORY OF OUR BREEDING PROGRAM
Valley View Charolais is proud to present our two-year-old bulls at this 58 th Annual Bull Sale . We offer proven genetics that will optimize your cows’ production and we strive to build long-lasting relationships and partnerships with satisfied customers. Your satisfaction is guaranteed with every purchase − the best guarantee in the industry. Our cowherd, established in 1962, originated from the Michaelis Ranch, the first U.S. breeders of Charolais. We have maintained strong bloodlines with proven performance for many generations. Our sires are proven to excel in the essential traits of ease of calving, growth, and carcass quality, supported by data from the Canadian Conception-to-Consumer Test, AICA Sire Evaluation Test and in-depth Genomic testing. We have performance records for every calf born on this ranch since 1962, ensuring bulls with excellent calving ease, performance, fertility, and longevity. Our focus on “ease of calving” means your bulls will work well on range conditions, producing live births and high-performing calves. Our bulls are proven to excel in feedlot gain, feed efficiency, and carcass quality. Crossbreeding with Charolais genetics adds hybrid vigor that puts extra pounds on your calves. You can expect our mature two-year-old bulls will breed more cows earlier in your breeding season, and boost weaning weights by 50-plus pounds. Their feedlot gains are faster and more efficient, with verified superior carcasses. Our bulls lead the Charolais breed in these traits, with bulls that rank in the top 1% for Charolais Total Sire Index (TSI) and marbling. Charolais genetics have been shown to produce the leanest, highest-yielding carcasses, and our bulls sired Montana Steer of Merit Carcass Champions over 30 years ago. The demand for Charolais-sired calves remains strong nationwide. Through 50-plus years of focused genetic selection, we have eliminated calving problems, ensured long-lasting sound bulls, and produced cows with excellent mothering abilities and dispositions. Our bloodlines form the foundation for other top Charolais herds across the U.S. and Internationally.
Our breeding program is based on proven genetics, not big feed rations. The bulls in this sale represent the best of our 2024 calf crop , carefully selected for fertility, performance, conformation, pedigree, soundness and disposition. Each bull is semen-tested and guaranteed to perform. Our bulls are raised under natural range conditions nursing their mothers with no creep feeding. After weaning, the bulls are fed alfalfa-mix hay for growing during winter, then they mature on pasture under practical range conditions. They are never pushed on feed but are simply conditioned to ensure optimum breeding condition and long-term performance for you. Due to our practical manner of growing bulls, it is rare for one to go unsound.
We have great confidence in these two-year-old bulls and are certain we have eliminated any bull with even very minor problems during our two years of selection and culling. We guarantee them to please you in every way so you will return for more bulls in future years. We cordially invite you to visit our ranch any time to see our ongoing genetic progress. We will always have something new and progressive to show you, as well as a warm welcome. We are confident in the quality of these bulls and guarantee your satisfaction. We look forward to seeing you soon ! Buddy Westphal and Family Valley View Charolais Ranch Polson, Montana
