She looks really heavy muscled for a purebred angus.  Looks like your halter is a little big for her though.

I like her she has a lot of good things going for her. She has good front end extension, and has the muscle expression that i like to see. I would like to see her on the move, and just how that front shoulder ties in to her front. But overall a nice heifer. What are you going to breed her to?

whats wrong with her tail head?
She doesn't have any hair on it. But she is not sloping down in rear.

Longer bodied and more muscle for angus as sue said. What are you going to breed her too?

For a show I'd like to see a tick more bone and a little more feminine head.  She's great behind the ears and above the hocks/knees though.  I'd love to see some Predominant calves out of her!  Very nice heifer that looks like she'll make a great cow and probably a dang good show heifer.  I would almost put money on her ruling the ring at smaller shows from about 900 lbs. until you're done with her; she isn't a late bloomer but looks like she will only get better.

Actually, she has already won Grand Champion Heifer and Female at our local 4H show. Her head may not look very feminine in the picture but she actually is. Shes bred either Mytty In Focus or Morgans Direction. I have to check on that. She was born on January 6th, 2009. Here is her pedigree.

Youngdale Touchdown has worked really well for us. Have 5 heifer calves we are keeping this year out of him.

I think many SP members would be pleasantly surprised by the Canadian Angus cattle!

Congrats (clapping)

Nice heifer. She is a load. That is the kind I breed to a shorthorn bull! (Oh wait they all get bred to a shorthorn here!)  The Young Dale herd looks cool. I checked them out from the other link on here. Had never herd of them before.
