Since you know her bloodline so well which bull would you use on her to add a little more frame and depth of body?

I have seen some mentions on this bull GB Daybreak Express seems like a very viable calving ease outcross THICK easy calving( 0 or near BW EPDS) SHORTHORN THAT GOES BACK TO MAINE and that dont get nearly the credit. Def would like to see more of his work. Sounds like a dream bull to me./// There have been a bunch of his progeny up north for years,and oneof the latest clubby bulls is a grandson,-and an AI bull called Kodiac in Minnesota-Daybreak Express has been around 10 years plus or minus-and as far as the hiefer above-its EnticerxMark 4xRodeo,on a bunch of Dividend-probably the best traditional cross-along with the Cunia from CD-x trump a bunch of times. PS-The Dazzler(Deertrail Awesome by a great Big Bud Cow)x above deal really would work with the Solution( Et AL) oriented KABA line bred stuff-and would certainly moderate the BWS-OF WHICH THERE IS A DIRE NEED.

JPJ will NOT add any frame. He will add some depth, but will definitely take away frame and a little shorter and sloppier from the shoulders forward. JMO. I would try Swagger or AOD on her.

The problem I have seen with the HD Swagger calves is that they round off on the hip real bad. We have not experienced the "sloppier shoulders" you mention with Jake's Proud Jazz. I know that txshorthorn bred the heifer to JPJ to get a light birth weight calf out of a show heifer. I am not for sure I would breed Swagger to a show heifer.
