Well I tried to get the discussion going in the other thread but it didn't catch, so here goes again. How would those of you who have seen these two new Simmy sires describe/compare them. They both look really good to me in the pics and videos that are available at this point, and have a lot...

I must have confused myself over all this new bull stuff...I don't know if I saw a video of him or not anymore, guessing probably not...I was probably thinking of the pics I've seen on Facebook, cell phones, and places like here: http://www.steerplanet.com/bb/index.php?topic=15566.105

I wish I had been out this year to see this one (and a couple of others). I have heard everything from he is the best one that has been there in several years, to one buddy telling me that if Tracy hadn't clipped him that ppl wouldn't even have noticed him. He looks really good in the pic and...

I liked that one on video too, for a PB. I was going to post up a question to those who saw them, which is better (or worse) and what are they like: American Dream vs. Optimus Prime OHB - This one is practically in your backyard! It should be your responsibility to go see him and report to us...

I didn't see them in person, but there is no doubt from this picture that she is the smallest footed and chested in that lineup, probably loin as well. Almost looks like a heifer compared to steers. ;) The Denver Post video at the Brown Palace kind of made me think the same thing, but I am also...

Here is a cool report from The Denver Post about a great stock show family: http://photos.denverpost.com/photoprojects/specialprojects/stockshowfamily/ They really seem to get why raising and showing livestock is so important to the rural lifestyle and seem like a super family. Nice pictures...

That must be the one, as he is from Greenhorn's. Do you know how the cow is bred? I saw the full or maternal sib heifer at NAILE (I can't remember if she was a Bloodstone or not, but Josh told me that Bob Agle had bought the sib bull) and she was much more my kind than the majority of females in...

(clapping) (lol)

I was hoping someone who had seen him would comment...he's not that far from me at home now. I'll have to go look...Bob really likes him, and I think he knows good cattle...if I remember right he is a Bloodstone

Seems to be a lot of Shorty breeders/fans on the Planet. Anyone see a Shorthorn bull on display called Metro? Thoughts?

Didn't make it this year but have talked to a couple of guys out there... They like Thriller as well... What about Trausch's Nasty Habit? I'm hearing he is as good as any out there... They hadn't mentioned Smilin' Bob

Had a buddy call me that summer and tell me he just saw the best one ever to walk, shortly after seeing Godfather in the pasture as a calf. Didn't he sell like $40,000 for half or something astronomical like that?

We used to set up that way at shows and sales with calves too. Kept em on the sloped turf all day then tied them out at night. Seems really goofy now ::)

I'm afraid Ali, Dirty Hairy type bulls are not consistent enough for me to put them on a female with HW type calving issues in her pedigree. I'm expecting a few this spring out of Northern Ice. Here's a link: http://www.shattoshowcattle.com/PowerUp/PUPS_NorthernIce_April2009_webcopy.pdf I saw...

Was nice to see the Big Ten make that progress. I just wish they would have had more direct match ups with the SEC this year. OSU gets a PAC 10 team, IA gets an ACC team, and PSU plays LSU in ridiculous conditions, plus Florida gets a Big East ::) ::) ::) (how do they get a BCS bid) team so the...

There should be a My Turn x Who bull out there. Jake Osborne raised and sold him in one of the Smackdown sales. Other than the one that sold in Goretska's sale as a steer?

I agree with jbh in that we remember them more fondly than they actually appear when you see them. Just before Heatseeker came along there was a strong developing discussion in the clubby world about what to do because there is not a decent PPlant outcross. There was just one PPlant son and...

anyone know what day the steer is at the Brown Palace?

Saw some fallborn Red Bulls at Farrer's, not the bull himself. They weren't impressive, paled in comparison to the Hardline calves in the same pasture. Saw Wave Runner as a yearling and he was built good, just really small. Saw a few nice WR the last 2 years. They might have a little more look...

Yes. To register ACA, all you need is one of the parents to be registered, regardless of percentage
