I'm getting ready to purchase some semen for my monopoly x hoodoo heifer and I was ready to get some firewater semen, but now I can't decide to go with him or gunsmoke.  I haven't really seen too much or heard a lot about him.
 
If this is her first calf I would stay away from firewater my family had two hard pulls from big cows
 
DO NOT USE FIREWATER ON HEIFERS.  Firewater has lousey calving ease numbers. Plenty of better oprions for a heifer exist ranging from Ledger to Wrangler.  You want a live calf and a healthy heifer. I would also look at the new bull that Genex has  MVY Xplorer 21X.  He has a very low BWT EPD (-8.0) decent growth numbers and he was the camadian Boss show bull of 2012: http://www.charolaisbanner.com/trin/2015/xplorer.gif.  Chdck ouhis bull calves in this catalog from this year: http://issuu.com/pdrneepawa/docs/classic_catalogue_for_web?e=2717029/11709357
