I suppose I am about to step on someone's toes here, but has anyone but me noticed the head on the heifer on the cover of the April edition of Shorthorn Country.  I guess I don't get out much but I have never seen a head on an animal that looks like an anteater with huge ears.  Without looking I...

There is Dr. Allen Williams ultra sound which I believe I see anecdotal evidence  in animals harvested and the ultra sound readings.  Also Gerald Freye's linear measuring which I believe originated with Bonsma.

Very well said.

Who sired him?

I didn't get to eat any of that one, I can't keep up anymore but the customers were happy with it.

This particular steer was a straight Native Shorthorn.  He was very deep and very thick.  He finished quite easily and that apparently contributed to his hanging weight.  I think that he probably carried the F94L myostatin gene, so maybe that isn't the norm. 

I won't argue with anything you said.  I had a son of Fortune that was the best of the 4 Shorthorn bulls I had from Doc, today I would say he was a little too big.  He weighed 2300 and he stood much taller than he needed.  But sired consistent offspring.

Doc had a son of Romeo that he called Too Tall, also he had a son named Fortune that was no where near belt buckle cattle.

So how would Mr. Gus 85c fit in there?

I could see how Amos could be part of that.  He is a good soggy calf.

Nice cow,  I too like the 189 cow and am try to do some line breeding to her.

Thank you I will check it out.

Will do.  Thanks, what kind of risk?

Does anyone know who to talk to about cloning?

I might be interested in some of that semen.

I have only seen one picture of this bull.  What can anyone tell me about him as far as a bull that a beef producer might find useful? Not interested in show stuff just commercial value,

If customers are not satisfied we take the beef back and refund their money.  That has happened twice, we then sold the beef to someone else and they loved it.  Sold a sample last week, two days later he ordered a whole animal for January delivery.  He has no idea what color the hair will be. 

That is the beauty of the grass fed beef business.  Nobody cares what color the hair is or what a judge thinks.  What matters is the quality of the product and the customer gets to decide that.
