Red angus: Majestic Lightning

[Blue25]

Has anybody tried Majestic Lightning, if so, what were the calves like?

 

[RedCowsRule]

I haven't tried him myself yet, but I really like the picture of him and may try to get some semen to use this spring.

 

[Blue25]

I was curious because I plan on breeding him to two of my first calf heifers

Not sure I would use him on heifers. RW

 

[Blue25]

Neither was, what were his calves like for you?

I haven't used him. My statement was based on what I was told by Moxley. There are a few around out of him, Moxley has some, Hardy Von Forrel has some and Johny Jung is supposed to have a pretty good bull calf out of him. I'm sure we'll see some more in Denver. RW

What all are you taking to Denver?

 

[ROAD WARRIOR]

What all are you taking to Denver?

A pair of two year old bulls that we used this summer. RW

 

[Blue25]

Oh, I was looking forward to beating you with my heifer, but your not showing one.

Nope, leaving the girls home this time. Just showing the bulls we are promoting. Maybe next time. RW

 

[Blue25]

Hahaha. You better watch it, you probably know my dad, Nolind Ward.

I know your father very well. I have quite a bit of the NBAR blood running through my herd. You must be Zane.  RW

 

[Blue25]

That's me, how did you guess?

 

[ROAD WARRIOR]

That's me, how did you guess?

When you were little I took you to town and bought you candy. I'm one of the mustache boys. How is your dad? I haven't talked to him since last spring. RW

 

[Blue25]

Good, getting older and grouchier

 

[ROAD WARRIOR]

Good, getting older and grouchier

It happens to the best of us. RW

 

[Blue25]

True, you can see a picture of me and my heifer if you go to fatsteer.com and click on more Kansas beef expo pics, then you will go to pearl pics page and click on Kansas beef expo, then junior females champions ring a and b, I am one of the only red heifers on there

 

[ROAD WARRIOR]

How many are you and your dad going to Denver with?

 

[Blue25]

Two of my heifers, another heifer(I think it one he sold but is showing with chain ranches) and two bull calves.

Blue25 your dad bought a Lightning son in Reno this year from Klusers out here in OR.  That can kinda give you an idea of what the bull calves may look like.
