I was curious if anyone has any information on this PHA free son of Irish Whiskey and Hairetta.  Has anyone seen him?  What kind of frame size is he?

I believe there were 3 or 4  full sibs from Harrieta this year. I have a friend who bought one, and he has seen all of them. If you can tell me which one you are talking about, I may be able to help. Earl

The First Impression Bull that I saw is listed and pictured under the Herd Sires of Wagonhammer Ranches.  I was thinking about infusing some clean Irish Whiskey genetics into my Deiter bred Chiangus cows.  I had also been considering some of the other Hairietta sons, Mama's Boy, in paticular. 

What do you think these bulls  might add or take away from a cow?  Frame, guts, Hindquarter, clean up fronts, etc?

Thanks in advance

There are several Harrietta sons that interest me. We used some Hairy, the Hairy Bear son, and will get a few this spring. I am told that he might sire a few that are too straight, but most are good cattle. Show Business looks good to me. The 4 Ali sons are good bulls, possibly better for heifers than steers. I have never seen Harrieta, but she must be special. It sure wouldn't bother me to use a Harrieta son.

That is correct. He is a full brother to Frank the Tank.  I believe Frank the Tank is a carrier, and coincedentily he seems to be a deeper more powerful calf.  But, I am basing this on pictures alone.  I am not sure the birthdate on Frank...........So I don't know if there would be any calves on the ground yet or not.

We also have some dieter chi-angus cows and we have some bred to a mama's boy son.  I can let you know more in a month or so!  Use mama's boy on a heavy boned good fronted female.  I am interested in using the show business bull, strictly business x harietta.
