I wonder how different Full Flush would look if he were fitted and feed according to today's style. I realize he would never perfectly fit today's style, but how much closer could he look just based on feeding and fitting?

Look at the original Heatwave picture,then look at all the clones pics over the yrs,thats kinda what you are after.

This is an excellent point. Some of the clones look world different than their donor. Feeding and fitting styles change and I would have to think it would make a huge difference.

I believe KBar was offering good money for anyone who could present a full throttle or flush X heat wave, monopoly, WA etc etc it would be interesting to see for sure. If I had the disposable resources I wouldn't be against trying it. I remember the picture of the 5 clones at the feed bunk in the old SEK books. It might not be bad idea you could see a very Meyeresque come back from those Bulls

I do have a 2 week old deja vu x Horny (Kodiak, mid continent cunia son x big G, ildeno son) x mid continent angus cow

Cow is a cunia grand daughter and Ildeno great grand daughter

Little bull calf here in tx so I'll be able to get an idea of how the oldies turn out

Cow was 17 I had to try it with deja vu

Probably the "chi" to using ildeno was putting him on Amerifax cows with lots of milk to stunt their growth.
