We will be flushing our Ella donor throughout the summer.   I was wanting peoples opinions on what they would flush her to.  She is a Gigolo Joe out of a Saugahatchee cow.  Flush and embryo packages will be made available this fall.

When I look at that cow, I think you need something with neck extension and style.  I have seen good ones on this board out of I Am Legend and angus.

Nice heifer. I voted for Other.  How about WMW, Dr Who or Mercedes Benz.

Good female.  Have you considered throwing more Angus into the mix? 1831 (Lutton) might be kinda neat on her where she has some Saugahatchee blood in her. Raven may be neat as well, he might fix her hip (shes a little short hipped & off for my taste... but I'm rather picky..).  If you're thinkin' simmi, still like Grandmaster.. think he could work in a wide variety of scenarios, yours included. You may also want to look into Premium Blend, think he may offer some style, hip & bone to her... be some sweet females I'd think.  And if you just wanna go clubby, I'd vote Bojo or Smilin' Bob (although he IS unproven :/).. Maybe My Turn?.. And although he didnt take the prettiest picture in the world, I've seen some flat good Hot Commodities out there... JMHO.

I would go Smilin Bob even though he's new. You might consider Point Taken if the cow has good hair. The calf in my avatar is a PT.

I'd like to extend and clean her front and add some bone, she's a maternal powerhouse!

The two bulls that came to mind when I saw her were Who Made Who and Hannibal. Either one would clean up the throat a bit. She has plenty of depth that either would work. I also have to wonder if the new percentage Simmental bull Trendsetter, that was the triple crown winner at NAILE, NWSS and Kansas City wouldn't be a good click.
