Who is his pedigree look like?

From the picture, he looks quite straight fronted and bold shouldered.  Also would like to see him deeper bodied and bigger footed.  I like his length of body and he has a nice hip.  What age is he?

Omg  that reminds me of my shorthorn calf, he was born April 14, 2010/ that is really cool

I like him, he is level topped and like Olson stated appears to have a good hip in him. I also agree with Olson and that I would like for him to be deeper bodied and have a little more bone as a bull IMO. It also looks like he toes out a little.

Dr. Rusk knows his cattle. I hope everything is going well for him in South Dakota, the bull calf looks pretty solid. You should update us in a few more months.

thank you cpl, we know he's very green yet,  will post new picts as he gets along in age

 

[taylor tay]

I think that he is going to be a good bull or steer. Are u keeping him as a bull?
