I can't beleive no one has suggested this, but I would go lowline. Yep, a lowline. You would then get a halfblood lowline which could be shown as a lowline, or if it grew a bit more, you would have a shorthorn plus to show. I would go with what TJ might recommend as he has one, and knows of a red angus lowline that might work also.

Like you stated though, the goal is to get a live calf with no harm to heifer or calf!

Post of the year, IMHO.  ;)

We're using Doc on our first calf Shorthorn heifers this year.  ALL the heifers we raised and have shown this year are getting bred to Doc or another Lowline bull.

Even if you use "another Lowline bull" in addition to Doc...  (thumbsup)  (thumbsup)  (thumbsup)  (thumbsup)

Don't want to bust anyone's bubble,why not use Total Solution? He is the most predictable and consistant club calf bull that is known. You get proven genetics,that have won even out of first calf heifers.
