They discovered some "outcross" genetics.    ;)

Hard to tell, but they may even be slightly smaller than some of mine, but you can certainly see the resemblance.

Lazy G...

This isn't the exact same sire/s, but this is what we used to use to make ours bigger.  We only had commercial Angus... nothing papered, except for a few Chi's.  Ironic that I now am doing the exact opposite about 30 years later, only I don't have anything nearly that big... not even close.  BTW, imagine mating that big critter to a Lowline cow... we actually used to do something very, very similar to that.  Had 1 bull (Smitty) that some of my Lowline cows could maybe have walked under.  (thumbsup)
