Would not call last two bulls heifer safe if that was your thought.
First one would work on them.

For four year old athletic (not small or fat) cows, the last two bulls
would do very well.

Thank you for your input! I'm planning on using them on cows anyway. Have any calf reports?

My pick would be the Stud bull. Most complete bull of the  three. I have seen Redeem cattle and they are quality cattle. My concerns with the bull are calving ease and the cost at $100 per straw.  He was bred by Churchill Cattle Co. people who have produced a lot of good cattle. I suggest you find some one with Stud calves on the ground and find out more about his calving ease.

I have seen calves from both Lambeau and Stockman and have been impressed. If you go to Topp Herefords website they have a good sample of Lambeau  and some Stockmans in their upcoming sale. Have a few breds and cows due to Lambeau and am looking forward to it.

Thanks for your input! The cows that I'm planning on using him on would be mature cows. They've spit calves out like sunflower seeds to DB Hard Drive with a CE EPD of -11.3. These couple of cows don't technically have EPD's and I'm not too concerned about it. I'm just looking for a progeny evaluation since he caught my eye. How are Redeem cattle for muscling?

Thank you for your input! I really appreciate it! I'll definitely check out their sale catalog. In your opinion, which bull added more muscling and capacity? I'll be curious to hear about your Lambeau calves! Keep me posted! (thumbsup)

I saw a Redeem bred heifer that was an excellent female. She had  plenty of mass and muscle. She was a show heifer so I would guess she was well fed. I also saw a Redeem cow with calf at side the cow was a little on the thin side. She looked like a hard keeper but I do not know how she was feed. Redeem calves I have seen pictured look good. A few years back a friend said he was impressed with the Redeem calves at Denver.

I would say the Stockmans had a nickle more muscling and capacity when compared to the Lambeaus I have seen

Cayley Brown, a member of Steerplanet, has a bull that would work great for you by the name of CBB SHAR-LO 719 SHAMELESS 308B.
Here is a link to her facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/cayleycattleco/.  She is a hard core show woman and knows what works.
Here is a catalog with this bull and more: https://issuu.com/canadian_hereford/docs/sedirectory_2016_web

I looked up the bull and he looks impressive! Any calf reports?

Thank you again! (thumbsup) I'm heavily considering Stockman now. Are there any other Herefords out there that you've been liking?
