I think he's a nice bull, but from the first picture, he looks like he could get a little straighter fronted than what I would consider ideal, and would you say he might be a rib short? I'm a fan of compact cattle, but some folks have to get that length of body.

Having the advantage of seeing this bull in the flesh, I don't believe him to be at all short. He is extremely deep which I think makes him look like that here.
Not great pics but the best of a bad bunch!

Yeah, that white belly doesn't do him any favors as far as gauging his depth or length in pictures.  I like his overall design though, and looks to have a good amount of bone and muscle.

He's deep bodied and looks to have very good fleshing, smooth and even from the shoulder back.
