I have a Angus cow and an Angus heifer that I am going to be a.i.ing soon. The cow needs maternal improvement and her legs are fairly slender. She has produced two nice bulls from a limmi sire. The heifer is taller and longer bodied she also could use maternal improvement as well as some thickness across the top. I am wanting to add some Simmental influence. I am open to other breeds as well and I would not mind a bald or blaze faced offspring. I am hoping to end up with at least one nice heifer between the two. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Agree with Rendition....  He hails from a good friend of mine, who has a small, yet select cowherd= and always makes some super calves... in fact Trademark originated their too...  Trademark is also the sire of Rendition...  Rendition should throw baldys, and should give you everything you are desiring...

i think trademark and rendition are great suggestions. A bull that i was really impressed with at REI this spring was Chopper. I think he would work great on angus females. He should throw some really nice half blood show heifers.

Grizzly is suppose to be heifer safe. Was bred to a bunch of heifers last season. I think he may be a 5/8 SM. BWF. Guyer is a partner on the bull.

I like the suggestion of Rendition.  You might consider SOS as well.  I have a couple Just Rights and Legends out of the same cow and the Just Rights haven't kept up with the Legends.
