What bull works best with what cows? I know that they are primarily used to sire heifers but what bull do you like better??

we used 3C Macho on a WHO cow and have really been impressed. The heifer was bout 72 # bw and lively. SHe is a baldy and very attractive with lots of body. He did not add a ton of bone or hair but she is definitely our keeper this year.
I gave Amazon a shot on the same cow hoping for the same results.

Amazon? I am drawing a blank on him.  I like that shot of maine in Maximus making his calves a little stouter than the 1/2 blood bulls calves

Amazon is out of Warehouse and Lexus. Black baldy bull that sold high in SVF'S sale this past time.You can find pictures through cattle visions i think. He's a nice looking fellow with the cow family to back him up. Might be the answer for the DO cattle.

I think he is a brother to Salution the simmi bull came out last year. Amazon is also in show circuit last month. He is a black baldy. I am hoping for good things.

I like alot that I've heard about Amazon and I was thinking about flushing my Angus Donor Patty to him.  I may wait for a calf crop to see how he works.  I am sure the owners themselves will get them in a bunch of cows.

Another bull that I'm very interested in after talking to one of the owners is Climax.  They have looked at 2 calf crops and are very high on him.

Ya, Mac is who I talked to.  That's where we purchased our Angus Donor Patty from.
