Whats on her bottom side? I'd go first with a angus bull to get a calf on the ground. I really like the angus bull northern improvement for her first calf But after her first couple of calves I like your plans of flushing her!

Eventually I would go with a black baldy to flush.  I think Rodgers has a bull named one and only whose a two year old? He's double clean and should throw some nice baldy steers.  Otherwise a Maine bull like Mercedes Benz should work on her.  I would mate her to either of these the second or third time round to see if you like the outcome before you invest nmoney in the flush.

Yeah, but he throws them a lot bigger than 65.  ;)

Nice heifer. Best wishes with her in the future. Looks like she could make a really neat producer on down the road.

Grizzly was only 65...if she has an adequately wide pelvis she should be fine.

have you ever seen the bull in person? 

I don't know that I believe he was a 65 lb calf-- full term that is...

I've also heard rumors about his pedigree maybe not being correct...  rumors they are though...
