Did a search couldn't find any info on him. Seen some pictures of a few of his calves on lautners blog and he seemed to be a cow changer. Had a plain Jain cow and had a pretty good calf. Any one had any experience with this bull? If so what kind of cows is he clicking on?

A neighbor of mine had some, his cows are angus, maine and simmy bred. He had Jesse James, Monopoly Money, and Walk this Way calves. I think he had just under 10 Walk This Way calves. Out of those only 1 steer and 1 heifer he had impressed me. The Monopoly Money and Jesse James calves were a whole nother story! Big boned, big topped and hairy.

I was also having the same debate. Had about 10 Jesse James this year and didn't have a bad one in the group. Saw those same pictures and was going to order some Walk This Way but I think I may stay with Jesse James. Just a note I'm really liking my Unstoppable calves also.

I had 4 flush mate bulls this spring, Unstoppable X Alias, this is the only pic I have right now. He was the first one born and this was taken when he was about 6 hours old.

Thanks for the replies. Unstoppable is definitely on my to use list. Sounds like Walks this way can be a little misleading on lautners blog.

Walks this way worked for us used one straw so not a good sampling. The calf that was produced looks good.

Here is a Walk This Way that was on Facebook from Matt Lautner...He looks good from the picture, I just couldn't tell you what cows Walk This Way works on... it didn't seem like he clicked with my neighbors cows, but they could change a lot from now till Fall.

Yea that picture is what made me want to try him, with as new as he is it will most likely be next year before we get a good feel for what he can produce.

Anyone else think some of these "cell phone" pics lately on some of these social media sites have been photoshopped? Maybe they should post a video along with these cell phone shots to add vaildity? <rock>

Really disappointed to here mediocre reports after I saw that calf and one other stylish calf out of a cow intended to be used as a recip. After seeing those two I thought he could become the next big thing as far as a cow changer. It'd be nice to have some Walks Alone or BIM or MAB sons start to produce quality calves... Calveso would still be Heat Wave grandsons/great grandsons but then you have multiple different "families" compared to just Monopoly sons.

I don't think these guys are photoshopping pics. They are being taken and posted In pastures across the country posting them while out there or in the car.

These calf pictures on his blog are undoubtedly photoshopped, and it's easy to tell. I mean really? C'mon.

I have 4 WTW calves so far, two this morning. So far I like them much better than I liked the walks alone calves last year. I should have 8 more coming, as due date is this tuesday. My biggest hang on them is I wonder if they will be hairy enough. They are smaller at birth that the unstoppable calves. Its early in the season for us as we only have 30 on the ground.

Has it ever crossed your mind that the pictures were taken on a cell phone sent to a email address then photoshoped on a laptop in a car or to a person in the office then posted to facebook or other outlets? Seems that some pics are saved and posted under a name of the owner of the calf such as "fred4her.jpg" and others that dont look quite as perfect in pic are posted as "20140410-34566.jpg" which would indicated that it was sent directly off phone without alteration. Maybe... maybe not....

The calves look a little to straight legged to me, just going off the pictures, that could have been photo shopped and the few I've seen in person.
