Just got the official pic of the bull we sold back in the summer to Trausch Farms and Sievers Show Cattle. Guilt Trip is a March born Eye Candy x Char.

I find it interesting that some certain bull promoters didn't want there bulls videoed a cople of years ago,and now all of there bulls are being videoed!

I think everyone realizes that amount of pub that it generates. This thread alone has reached over 10,000 views in just a short time. Videos, Blogs, Forums, Social Media - capture the market immediately, instead of waiting for the same photo everyone has already seen to be printed in a magazine.

well at least one video was of value and that's Eye Marvelous, that one actually shows the bull walking.

But maybe they shouldn't have!Not real fluid in his movement,and those back wheels are plenty straight.

I agree, while he cant move worth a dang at least his owners had the balls to show what the bull REALLY is, How many of the bulls on display do you think are truly sound? Sorry I'm not impressed by a video that zooms in on a bulls name or head...

I agree st least they show the bull moving. I think we deserve a true representation of what these bulls are before we pay hard earned for their semen. We don't go and buy a vehicle without test driving it. I think if all you can show is your bull walking around in a pen with straw knee deep that should say something too.. Last year Lautner farms had videos of there bulls a person could watch. There are videos of emerson bigguns and stick stay and the rest of haag's bulls online and I think everyone you'd call sound. If the other bulls move like these then I don't see whatnot would hurt . Just my opinion that's all.

I suggest that if you really want to know which bulls are the best save your money on the trip to Denver. Go to the bull studs in April/ May after they have melted some of the FAT and FUR off of them you can watch them walk see them without the fitter pimping him the whole time you are looking at him. Then go to your fav magazine and see if you can match the bull to the ad.

Good advice

I concur. Good advice.

I was fortunate to have someone send me pics of I-80, I-67 and Jessie James from the bull stud. The bulls were in their natural state. Pics we 3/4 fronts from above the fence. These pictures spoke volumns. You could see which bull still had a nice neck. You could see which ones shoulders were smooth. You could see which bull had a broad topline and thickness down through his stifle. You could see the bull's feet all pointed forward. I was glad that I had bred my heifer the way I did. Looking forward to the calf this spring...oh, who did I breed to?

Careful Cards, You'll get blackballed quick you start sounding like Bob Costas on here.

well cards, if you bred your heifer to one of those three and went off of the pics from the bull stud, I would be willing to bet you bred her to JJ. Because I think we looked at the same pics and I pray to God you didnt breed her to I-80, because the pic I saw from bull stud made me hate him 20 times more

I was looking for calving ease and something that'd work for my program. I decided before seeing the pictures. I wasn't until this winter I saw the pictures...I'm Happy to say I bred her to JJ. I know a ton of people will disagree with me.
