One bull that impressed me in the Shorthorn show was Schrag's  SS Red Rocket.  I liked him in  Louisville and I liked him in Denver.    I could be wrong, but I think we may hear a lot more about this bull.  JMHO

I really enjoyed meeting you, MYT, and talking with you about some of the bulls.  I agree with you about Cloud Nine.  He looked as good as he could have---they did a great job of presenting him-- but I'd still have some trouble believing he's structurally correct on the move.  I didn't...

Hey Thunder, I couldn't find your beer here in Denver but we did have the "Chocolate Thunder Down Under" dessert at the Outback restaurant tonight!!    In your honor of course!!  LOL

By the way, I've ordered semen from them multiple times and recieved great service with that, too!!

Melissa does a great job with the Shorthorn Shop transactions.    If they offer a certificate on a bull, its really silly to go anywhere else!!    I've actually started working on an on-line registration right after ordering a cert. from them and the cert. was in my inventory before I got done...

I think the whole question is that as long as you know what the animal is you can breed around it if you choose.  However, once the gene gets into the commercial herds(which it already has) people may not know its there and it can really bite you.  For example:  the year before we had a test...

I really don't know much about a lot of the registries, but since the Shorthorn registration process  was put on line a few years ago, I think its been pretty easy to work with.  I do wish they would allow us to register Shorthorn Plus on line as well as the Shorthorns, but overall I really...

I narrowly missed meeting my maker when a bale rolled back off my loader and over me while I was moving bales in 2006.    I was very lucky to survive!!  The bale split my sternum(my knee actually did the damage from the bottom), cracked three ribs, and damaged both ends of my right collarbone. ...

I also made my own calving chute using an old self catch headgate I had and two 8' heavy pipe gates attached on either side of the headgate.  I made a raised area that comes back about 3 feet from the front of the chute and use square tubing as removable posts on either side.  I took the front...

You might want to consider Braun's bull  "Simplicity".    I know Kevin's pretty high on him!!

Hey Up,     What an interesting coincidence.  We've taken 4-H kids from Iowa to Denver twice and we're planning to go again next year.    I've actualy been thinking about trying to get a trip set up to Agribition in the next 2-3 years.    The only problem we have is that Agribiition is over our...

Sorry, didn't mean to start an "Aussie" territorial skirmish!!    Just so you know, I probably can't handle a "few" Crown Royals--I am an Iowegian afterall!!    I will keep an eye out for your favorite beer, Thunder, but if I can't find it, I may have to just get by on a Coors or whatever else...

Sorry, Thunder!!  Didn't mean to step on your toes!!  I don't believe I've ever had a Cooper's but I'll darn sure try to find one in Denver!! 

Wish you were going to be there!!  Maybe we can hoist a Foster's in your honor!!

I'll probably have to run back and forth between the Shorthorn Pen show in the Pepsi Arena and the Pfizer booth!!  I'll try to make it though!!

Good Lord willin' and the creek don't rise---I'll be there from Sat. the 15th thru Monday the 17th.    My daughters are on their way out there right now with the Braun Show Cattle crew and they're running into ice on I80 between North Platte and Ogallala.  From the Weather Channel map it...

After spending time with some of you at cattle shows I know this could come in handy.    I'll just about bet that someone will just try to leave their beer on the spigot and use a straw to empty it though!! LOL

Scott, I know nothing about your bulls, but the 9610 bull really caught my eye.    Very nice group of bulls.  Good luck with them!! Lynn

I have a rule in business---I like to know who I'm talking to when I provide prices, etc. on our animals.  Call me old fashioned, or any other name you want I guess, but I will make the following deal with you---If you'll let me know who you are in your PM, I'll prvide you with all the...

I really appreciate the interest show in the cattle, pregnancies, embryos, etc. we have offered on our For Sale page.    I do have a favor to ask, however.    Please let me know who you are when you PM me for prices, etc.    I would much rather be talking to an individual person than a "blind"...
