A March Dream-On heifer;  one of our first pure breds out of a heifer I bought last fall.  She's partially clipped / not fitted in the photo.  I like her but wanted a few more opinions as we have not had her in the ring yet.

Do you have any more pictures of her profile? Could just be the picture, but maybe a little straight in her shoulder, that can be kinda hidden with the right amount of hair, from behind she is a great heifer. I would expect you to hear she has big shoulders, but with some more age and feed she will grow just like all simmis and grow into them shoulders and look really good.

I expected the shoulder comment.  She has a ton of hair, and I have not yet put a clipper to the show side shoulder.  She is actually quite smooth through it when you clip that two inches (literally) of hair.

I think she is a real nice heifer.  I would love to see her move and how she handles that front end, but still...I like her!

She looks as though she has some natural thickness too her and her front doesn't bother me as much cuz she is simmi. Better angles in your pics would improve the overrall appearance. Looks like she has the right parts to make a cow.
