I sold this steer last year for a friend of mine out of Nebraska, he is on the boards here and I just fot done clipping him out for the Family I sold it to and figured I'd get some opinions on him. I'd like to know how competitive you think he could be and at what level. Thanks

He's a Chill Factor x Irish Whiskey

He looks good, balanced, great top line, structure looks good as well. He could compete at the state level in most places. I would like to see him a touch deeper.
He is one of those steers that it is hard to find holes in, and there will always be a steer with just a touch more power or a look that edges you out.
He is the type I like balanced and sound looking.
Just out of curiosity how big is he, from the picture I would guess low to mid  13s.

Then by the time he is finished he will be right there, I was trying to tell his size gauged off of the person on the lead. 100-150 more pounds will do him good.

i like his size and i think he is powerful but could use just a tiny tick more depth. i really wish he was in my lot right now

He looks good, very impressed. My only question is how is his structure? I personally seen this calf earlier in the year at a prosepct show and his rear wheels had some issues, full of fluid and couldn't walk correctly. Did you get this taken care of?

Yeah he tried to jump a fence earlier and hurt his legs but we got that worked out and he's walking pretty good now. I guess its just the angle of the picture but I think he has plenty of depth. I'll upload another picture today and another one I just sold
