Simmental bull Houston

[kndcattle]

Really like griswalds simmy bull Houston.  Anybody have experience on him.  Will his daughters make cows and be productive.  How about show ability in offspring.    Any thoughts appreciated.

I really like him as well

When Gargan sees this he will reply. He had one that he really liked.

Yes, I became a fan of this bull before Chris Sweat sold an interest to Griswold's. He had limited use when Chris was sole owner and still had some super offspring. I sold a daughter of his right of the cow last summer that's probably the best I've ever raised , granted I've never raised any big time hfrs, but I was sure proud of her. He also had a daughter that won lots of big shows in Texas ( also a red baldy) and a flush mate brother to her is now being promoted by Chris . his name is rolling hills endevour. He looks and is made real similar to his sire but is a pb instead of 3/4 blood . I don't know how his daughters are performing but I'm sure Chris could tell you. He's a great guy to talk to.

Call Roger Allen.  He was one of the previous owners on the bull and can tell you anything you want to know.

Has anyone used this bull on a heifer? Any info on birth weights?

Assuming this is the bull referred to in this thread.
