SAV Bismarck calves

Anyone have any Bismarck calves on the ground or have any opinioins on the calves the bull throws? I have two due any day now! Thanks

We have used him on limousin cows, and It all depended on what kind of cow use him on. We had one calf that was very clean fronted and feminine but just wasn't very thick, then we had a very thick stout made bull calf. The most consistent feature he threw was they were very clean and hairy.

We've used bismarck some and I've found that he works best on thick longer made cows and heifers.  He'll clean up a front end some and really smooth them out.

Bismark will really clean up the phenotype of the female. Just like cattledog said he is best used on thicker females that may be coarse. He really adds some eye appeal to many of his calves. This is only from experience with his reg. Angus offspring however

Anyone have any experience with the SAV Density bull. He was the sire of the dams of the 2 high selling bulls in the Shaff sale.

This is a bull that will be really appreciated for his ability to make good cows.  I've seen a couple show well but most have too much front end.  If you were to use him I'd definitely use him on your cleaner fronted females.

my wife's father has had a bunch of Bismark calves and he really likes them.  They come small get right up and going and grow relatively well.  Some are very fancy made type animals.  I wouldn't steer away from him.
