Can anyone share their thoughts or experience with this bull or animals in his pedigree.
JSF Big Ticket 131D

His pedigree is outcross, real-world, and created by serious Shorthorn breeders.  Maybe someone can post a photo?

Like to see him-they also  have Mr Right who is a good heifer bull and on paper at least-would be much thicker. If I wanted to breed to a heifer and get a stout one-he would be my choice-His grandsire Arsulu Masterplan was my kinda bull-and should have been used on showy cattle too He was the right combo of maternal and old school clubby-triple clean too.Thats Masterplan pictured 8-10 years ago O0

Thanks for commenting.
Hadn't heard of the jdmc prefix before but managed to find their website. They have some interesting cattle, depth muscle shape and appear to have good fat cover. The Remedy bull looks interesting.
Have always liked the look of the Masterplan cattle.
How reliable of are the REA numbers on these bulls they all look a good thick type but they are in the 90th percentile.
I have used Saskvalley Primo and he adds volume but strips the REA out and he's in the 60th percentile

They need to have a butt on them too-if you are gonna sell to any commercial people or steers for the fair-and that means they need a little clubby back there if they are Shorthorns-and or Enticer-(Byland Goldwalk-the original "Gold" was a son).The all maternal can have deficits just like the would up clubby ones-Just opposite ends of the spectrum I havent seen the Remedy bull in person but hes kinda sloppy fronted,and doesnt show much muscle to me maybe its the picture but seems pretty hard doing looking- O0

Got the wrong bull I agree about Remedy I was looking at Ripper who is a remedy son but looks quite different in the photos on their facebook, that might be coming from the dam

Head down so doesn't show front end much but he looks to have a hindquarter.

I have seen some nice Ripper daughters. Easy fleshing, deep sided, and still have decent shape on the hindquarters. Talking to Cody it sounds like they really take off as breds, and his first daughters were looking good last I spoke to him.

Did he bring $18K?  JSF was excited about him--they exhibit at Denver each year and have bred several high-dollar Shorthorn bulls.  His dam is a great one.  Big Ticket is a young bull, so there is only one calf so far on DigitalBeef, and experience with him is likely limited.

Has anyone seen the bull in person? Any thoughts? How about his maternal brother Goldenrod?
