Leanbeef and justintime hit on this. In my mind if I owned a new promotional bull I would price it high in order to insure use on high quality females in order to produce a high quality calf crop right out of the gate. I do believe 1/2 of the genetics come from mama.
I have always told my boys we will always be 100 percent honest and open in everything we do. Because if and when you reach the top you cannot leave any ammunition for the doubters. Fortunately we have met about of people that are the same.
Thanks for all the help. I will check out Sunrise and Red lion. Just to let you know I am looking to use him on a solution daughter and granddaughter that is it of jazz.
I looked up the WHR Augusta Sunrise on the asa site and came up with nothing. Is it possible they changed the name? Also am I looking past the obvious and there is a full sib bull to her? Thanks for all the help so far.
If this has been covered I am sorry, but, I was unable to find it. I am looking for a son of GCC Augusta Pride 3127. Does anyone know of one and if so what is your opinion of him?
We love ours. I especially like it when clipping. We have the remote so I can blow of an area without getting up.As far as power it is every bit as good..
I would only concern myself when you see the heifer riding and he doesn't. If he won't put her in with the cows. Steers ride from time to time from what I have seen. Also, if you have a near term cow, that is almost as good as a spotter bull. Their hormones seem to be in overdrive.

As someone who only purchases $7 corn. It is nice to see prices begin to offset. I know I sold a bred heifer last fall I wish I had back. But, the fuel price increasing is going to turn everything upside down.
I just got done installing this camera before coming in and seeing this thread.

It seems great and I can watch from work or even on a mobile connection. It is a fixed camera and no audio. But it...
This is our first heifer we bought and her third calf which is now a steer. They are both SHorthorn plus but sure could qualify color wise for a speckle park. I am always interested on learning about the different breeds.
