I'd like your opinion's.
Anyone bred to Polar express?
What were the B/W's like?
How do you like the calves out of him?
Thinking of using him on a couple of my larger cows.
thanks

Ive seen a few and they arent what you would think. he took all the stoutness and bone out of em. Awhile back on the forum there was a picture of him at stud not very impressive  I would suggest something else

I'm not such a fan either.  My dad really really wanted to try him the year that he came out, but I thought he looked super coarse and not at all what we wanted for calves.  I've seen a few.  The best one would have probably won Champion Shorthorn at a county fair, and then there were a couple that were just bad.  I've also heard that the calves out of him come big on average.

Saw one over the weekend. Out of Byland Cow. SHe was thick made but smaller boned. She was okay heifer but I liked her mother better.
