Well, we drug out our Feb bull, a Steel Force embryo bull we have been doing nothing with! He has been in a big pasture, all by himself, eating lush grass and clover... and show season is about to begin so I thought we better bring him in and start working on him. He has been in one time since last fall, to get a yearling weight. We really like him, but have no use for him. We AI everything, or put in embryos. We did not sell this guy because we want to show him this year, but will be selling him in the fall. He has been a fun project, and is a good bull personality wise, but we have never dealt with a bull this age so we are new to keeping them beyond the yearling point. We have used him on 2 cows, that will be due in October/November. Anyway, he weighed in at 1560 today, not bad for 15 months.

I'll have to agree with Mainevent. Very impressive, especially with that depth through his middle.

My camera died right after I took the first photo, so these were taken on the Ipad. They show he is actually pretty long even with that depth. And he is very wide!
Thanks for all the great complements, we really appreciate it!

second round of pictures MUCH better the first makes his front end off. That outside leg being forward makes it appear he is off in his shoulder structure. The other pictures are better representation of the bull. Nice to seem some natural thickness from one that didn't come from HAIR. Should be proud of what you have produced.
