Looking for a bull that can add a tick more feminine look to a bojoxhotline cow. She could also use a touch belly if possible. Anybody have any ideas on bulls that are maine influenced?

as long as she has enough power in her hip, and bone, maine man will add the style and softness you are looking for

I-80 won't add belly or power but as far as a good heifer out of a good cow he is pretty hard to beat..

I would really encourage you to take a serious look at ZNT Montego Bay, he is owned by a steerplanet user who is awesome to deal with!
I had a great Montego Bay heifer, and I have seen some top notch heifers and steers out of him.  He is definitely a really high quality bull that has slipped under the radar somewhat.

Montego Bay can be found at this link, http://www.zntcattle.com/p/sires.html

Maternal perfection added guts and power for me. I only had 2 calves so take it for what you will. He is a pha carrier though.

    We have 3 Maternal Perfection heifers and 2 Rebel Soul heifers that are really good boned and soft ribbed. These bulls really worked good for us in adding volume of rib. These heifers should make great maternal club calf cows.

local friend of mine has a maine herd and dabbles in shorthorns. So I go every year to check his calf crop. Two years in a row the better heifers were I-80 calves. Super feminie and long bodied. Shag haired and great temperments.
We are trying a red Boomer son this year. I will have to let you know next year how this turns out.

I agree. That Bull is just loaded with great Maternal traits!

He's not proven yet but General Lee, Monopoly X Sooner, should do the trick. Sooner is a proven oldie but goodie and Monopoly, well we know what he can do.  I have a couple Sooner cows and both are big ribbed and pretty. I'm pretty sure Bushy Park Farms sold a Sooner heifer for over 40,000 and year or so ago. G-Luck
