What type of cow does Eyes on the Money work on? I have a Full Throttle/Draft Pick cow thought he might work on something like that.

I've got three new ones on the ground - two out of Cunia grandaughters.

One of them is super stout, heavy boned, and very cool looking.  Problem is she is about knee high to a grasshopper.  If she grows, she'll be real good.  However, I have my doubts.  We had a crop of them two years ago and had a heifer calf just like her that was super good looking, but just not big enough.  We sent her to the feedlot and she never grew out there either.

Short story - based on my experience I'd certainly use him on large framed cows, otherwise I don't think they'll grow out.

I had the same issue with him, have a heifer out of him that I bought in november , I was worried when my fall calves grew taller then her, but when my march 10 calves got bigger I threw my hands in the air, theres money down the drain. Awsome to look at but a complete PUD!

I'll try to get photos this weekend.  We are talking babies just born.  I've got three Eyes on the Money calves.  One heifer for sure I was referring to, haven't got close enough yet to tell what the other two are other than alive and doing fine.
