Here is a Triple X heifer out of a Direct Hit (Heatseeker) x Mercedes cow that was raised by the Kaz Family here in North Texas.  This mating has worked well over the last few years, but this year it really clicked.  The family brought the heifer with them when they brought a couple of cows out to get A.I.'d.  Even hairy, we got pretty excited, and just had to offer to clip her up to see how she looks.  Below is a before and after picture.  Only spent about 30 minutes clipping on her, but I think she still turned out pretty good.

Looks real nice.. Can you paper her CHI or will she have to run AOB??

She'd be able to be registered as a Chi or Mainetainer.  Triple X is a dual registered bull.

Is she for sale or are they going to keep her as a cow prospect?

It looks like Triple X is doing what you thought all along.  When more of his females get into production is when everyone will know his true value. Nice heifer and have always liked her full brother too. Can you show a picture of him again?

The family's plan is to keep her as cow, but if someone were truly interested, I could talk to them.

Telo's, you are correct about Triple X making the great females.  This was our vision all along for him.  He is a great combination of easy calving, maternal, growth, and eye appeal.  Plus he is dual registered 3/4 Maine and Chimaine.  There are other pictures of his offspring on his page on our website.
