TLC/tlcc Turks Bricktown H0365
Reserve Beefbuilder Show Sire 2023 - 2024
We kept Bricktown around because he was a Turk son and out of a Star War's daughter TLC Britt X1272 that is still in the herd. He's 5/8 Braunvieh and 1/4 Maine. He was small at birth and has passed on that calving ease. We have saved several Bricktown daughters for replacement females to add to our Simmental program. He has great calving ease and perfect for first time heifers. We have several more to come in fall of 2024.

He consistently produces Champion Sons and daughters. Six frame, square hips, deep rib, big foot and soundness.
His daughters have beautiful udders and consistently produce superior progeny.
Number one in the breed for Yearling EPD. Semen available $25.00 No AI Certificate
We purchased Silverwood Dragon in his prime in 1997 from the Randall Ranch in Broadus, Montana. He consistently produced their top cattle and he went onto prove himself time and time again in ours and many herds in the states. He was very docile and easy tempered. Produced more herd sires than any other Fullblood bull we have ever used. He was consistent in calving and his steers fed very well with big 18-19 inch rib eye's and average .18 - .25 back fat on carcass that graded yield grade 1-2. Marbling was outstanding! We thought enough of Dragon that when he passed away we buried him in the front lake pasture. His son's and daughters have proven his legacy.
TLC MAGNUM ET
Magnum ET (Deceased) OB31668
Sire: Silverwood Dragon 4Y OB3578
Dam: GLB 814 OB1288
Magnum was a Silverwood Dragon son out of the famous 814 cow. He was produced from a flush that we purchased from her in 1997. Magnum was a keeper from the very beginning. Our friend Robert Goodwin saw his potential and acquired half interest in him when he was just a yearling. He spent most of his time in south Texas on Roberts ranch and only made it back to Oklahoma once for our production sale one year. He met an untimely death when lighting struck 11 head of Roberts. Fancy moderate framed cattle that had great eye appeal and performance. Semen Available

Largest framed bull we ever used in our program but he had the best calving ease of almost any sire we used. We used him safely on heifers. His daughters are simply awesome in all categories. They have perfect udders, are great mothers and have great dispositions. He had extreme bone and was very good on his feet and legs. If you want to add frame, bone, muscle, length and depth to your herd. Use Turnpike. He is the grand sire to TLCC Hardy. Turnpike is no longer in the herd. He passed away in 2006. He was a big gentle giant at the Thorne Ranch for many years. He adds milk and pounds at weaning.
