Has anyone ever used the Maine bull shiver? What do his calves look like?

i used him last year,  really like the calves.  flat out good cattle.  not overly blessed with hair, but softens them up, keeps them sound and they have a good look.  calves came easy on mature cows.  I did not use on heifers, but would try it on one without much birhtweight behind them.

Pretty much my thoughts as well.
