I know of someone that is in need of a shorthorn bull for natural use on a group of heifers this summer.  Looking to buy, not just lease.  If you can contact me, I am just trying to help find one for someone else.  The people that want the bull don't realy know what they want as far as breeding type.  They aren't always sure what they want out of there program.  So, any sugestions would be helpful.  Double negative is a a definate need (TH & PHA).  Not looking for the next great one to my knowledge, just something safe, or as safe as one can be with a shorthorn bull.  Sorry, I have heard way too many breeders over the years say that there shorty bulls are "calving ease" bulls without any proof or real data behind them to prove the point.  Thanks.

Thanks TMJ.  Steve didn't have anything like that, last I knew he did have a nice Final Solution son out of that Cunmberland cow of his, realy like that cow, he just wasn't a calving ease type.  Matt didn't have anything that I knew of last time I looked.  Both real good herds and people.  Thanks.

Linnettejane,
Lakeside was also contacted, not what he was looking for I guess.  As far as just calving ease, I thought he could have found that there, guess not.  Thanks.
