I would agree with Walks Alone that was mentioned above and there are other options as well. Not to derail your thread, The Lifejacket bull is very interesting and he is one of our bulls at Embry Cattle located outside of Waco in Central Texas. The Lifejacket bull is very moderate and low to ground for a Yellow Jacket. He's really big ribbed as well with a great shape to his ribcage as well. Really square built and powerful and as sound as you can get one.
As a bonus, he's double clean by pedigree so he can be used on anything. We put him out to clean up on a few cows this fall to get him started and we had 3 calves (the other cows in the group were already stuck ai) out of him and he showed to be a real cow changer on this limited number. We will be using him very heavy this fall and are starting to ai cows back this next week and he will be used a lot. He sired an American cross calf this fall that will be ultra good and should be one of the better Americans to sell this spring around the state. Got a real nice Charolais cross calf out of him as well that is really powerful and good looking.
We have an excellent set of calves on the ground currently. We have around 100 fall borns (most are AI calves and some out of our herd bulls) and they will be selling in the spring at our ranch outside of Waco. We raised the Champion Simmental at Houston this year (2012) and have placed calves in the majors every year for a while. We have an outstanding bull battery and have routinely placed calves in the majors out of these cleanup bulls. We would be happy to show you our stock anytime if you want to look.
