*I NEED HELP* Getting my new 4-H project

I can't decide which market calf to get,  its between these two calves.  I need everyones opinionon both of them because i can only get one.  Thanks for your help!!
the first pic is steer 106.  the second pic is steer 114.  third pic  on the far left is 106 front and far right is 114 front. fourth pic is 114 on the left rear and on the right is 106  rear.  fith pic is another of 106 from the side..
Please tell me want you think!!!!!

O and both of there sires are Lifeline

106

I think that I would pick the 114 calf. He may not be the prettiest calf ever but the way it looks he has a lot more natural thickness to him compared to the 106 calf

From the photos, it appears that the 114 steer has more base width and muscle.  He would be my pick.

one thing to about 106 is he's pretty high headed,  but he sure is pretty to look at

is your show a slick shear or a hair show. That could make a big difference on your choice.

114 all day long.

106 is nice looking calf. But i would go with 114 he has more muscle and width and built like a show steer more than 106. So one 114 gets my vote.

114

106 for sure

Glad we could be of assistance  (clapping)

I'm with zach

114

after thinking about it, i need to know something - when is the fat show? i think the 114 calf is stouter and all that jazz but when he fills out is he going to get big and dopey? i might rather take the 106 calf now, looks like he's got plenty to grow into and maintain some appearance as a fat.

114

The correct choice for the show steer would be steer 106. The reasons are quite clear once one looks at them. The steer is like any other animal and is judged especially these days from the ground up. Therefore you look at the structural correctness of the two and 114 begins to worry us as he becomes straighter in his design and begins to worry us when we look at the design of his hip. Additionally we look at the extension through the front end and flex that 106 has in his pastern and joints and we begin to see a more correct steer that gives us more look and balance throughout. In terms of natural thickness I would give the edge to 114, however he appears to be earlier maturing and quicker in his kind, making us worry about how expressive he will be, especially for our slick shows and at what weight he will finish at. 106 is however not without fault as he is harder in his make up and shallower throughout. There will definitely be some feeding challenges with getting enough depth of flank in this steer, however go with the complete steer 106 that will have the natural look, eye appeal, and structural correctness vs. the heavier fronted, soggy, straighter made steer in 114 .
