Het Black bulls I like the bulls from the Dominance line, Harkers Crusader or HARKERS/JS DOMINATION look good. Crusader semen is available from http://www.c-morbeef.com/herdsires.htm and Domination is on Cattle Visions.

We had six Grandmaster calves out of Bred Heifers that all releate back to Dream On this year with no issues at all 65-75 lbs. Absolutely loved their early vigor or get up and go. The calves all look pretty good at this point being about a month old. The only complaint I've heard about him is...

Bloat blocks help. Try to get them out at least day before.

Good answer, I would agree on quality over quantity. Breeding up is an option but with show cattle, most of us don't have the patience. Good maternal genetics can make a lot of bulls look good!

Those of us watching online only got to see about 2/3 or the sale so if there were specific lots you were looking at we may be able to fill you in? Just glad I was not trying to bid online..... I assume NWSS and Eberspachers will have results up at some point. Why does sale managers commit to...

Interesting Buck. Here is one to compare to from Illinois that I had on a trail camera in early October.

Congrats! Looks like things worked out pretty well.

Funny thing about deer hunters.... I think they are even more obsessed than us poor cattle people. They can spend money toward their obsession like its water, so to them a buck a pound for a salt rock is a minor expense. Seems like we all need a trophy to hang our hat on ours is just on the end...

Calf was born yesterday out of a PB Simmental cow and our herd bull. Usually hard to get a good pic with a calf, but boy this one was looking pretty good for day one and thought I should share. Lets just hope he continues to impress us like he did on day one.

Always a pain to get the sheath seated all the way on to the gun where the plug is at the end of the sheath like it should be with those darned threads. And the straw does not really...

Judging Connection site has quite few listed, did not notice any in WV. http://www.thejudgingconnection.com/

I bred a heifer this morning and noticed after breeding that some of the semen was above the plug in the straw? Wasn't very much maybe 1/4 or less.  I guess the plug could have been faulty as well since I did not notice any resistance when I pushed the plunger in? Anyone had this happen? Trying...
