September Vegas x radio active heifer from steerplanet member SHORTDAWG, first picture is her 'show ready' at the TJLA camp may 5th, the new picture was taken this evening at the house... original steer planet classified purchase here! thanks shortdawg and jason for allowing us to find her and put this one in our barn

ill be the first one to evaluate and comment on a calf picture on steerplanet, but i dont want to be known for sitting behind a p.c and not airing out pictures of my own cattle for you guys to see as well, any and all comments/criticisms are appreciated!

Good job with her so far! You know I will be the first to tell you how it is with them man, but I think she is kind of a unique piece in the Shorty show ring as of late, good boned, sound from the ground up, but what makes her stand out to me is she appears to have a ton of length of spine.  Hair will really make this one come together in my mind.  If I am criticizing her, its hard to tell if its lighting or not, but looks like she could still stand to drop in that flank a little, being long spined she is going to have a tendency to look a little tubular, its just natural so you have to have even more depth on them, but I think she will deepen up some more.  Other than that she looks like she might be just a tad bold shouldered and may round off in the hip just a touch, I dont think any of those areas are really bad enough to seriously fault her on though and like was said, when she gets all haired up this winter you wont notice them as much.

Looks like she's really coming on well ! A little more depth and she will be very complete .

thanks again guys, Mr. Fletcher i knew that comment was coming sooner or later! TwistedH and DBL yall are right about her depth of body and flank needing work, she will be 4, 5, and 6 months bred at the 3 big majors next spring, and we got her on long-stem hay here recently hoping that would help out

rack ranch- we arent showing this one until ft worth i believe, washington county will be nice and hot! may go watch the bands play there if that counts?!

Those pictures don't look like the same heifer. I don't dislike her in either shot...it's just looks like two different animals.

Glad to hear about a successful find/purchase/sell transaction on the site. I think that makes SP even more useful & important to those of us on here than it would be if it were only a forum to exchange ideas & advice.

It's the same animal no doubt ! He has sent me pics of her almost every week since he's had her. It took her a little while to get over the long trip and she was nice but pretty green when he got her. They have done an awesome job feeding her for sure. Thanks for the comments !
