Off of Matt Lautner's Blog- Texas Tornado from Keith Stafford

I've always pulled them off with pliers, but that's been one or two. We had a feedlot heifer that had a huge one in her ear. We called the vet and he said you could surgically remove it, but its pricey and the heifer was only going to be sold at the sale barn in a few months. We grabbed the wart...

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.

Yes, this is part of it, but if you work hard you can get good hair on other non hairy genetics. It's just hard work.

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.

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...

I saw on Otto's semen sale last night that MAB semen went for just above $70...Who knows if it was all real the way online sales go, but is he getting even harder to find semen on? 

Bush's Unbelievable could be an option. We're using him to put style in some angus females. Haven't used him before, but we really like what we have seen. There are several other bulls

Would Mercedes Benz work? I haven't used him but just bought semen to use in my herd. Just wondering what bw's to expect.

If you're looking for an angus heifer check with Scott Pohlman. I don't know if he has anything at the time, but we bought 2 nice angus heifers from his parents and are very pleased with them. There's alot of the same blood in his herd and his parents herd. Just an idea, here is his site...

The first is Hoover Dam x New Day heifer. The second is a Connealy Confidence heifer. Pictures are not the greatest, just wanted some opinions good or bad. Thanks!

I-80, I-67, Jesse James, Frisky Whiskey are some that could work. IMO. I think I-67 or I-80 will add gut, I don't know about Frisky Whiskey only because this is his first calf crop on the ground.

I'd say Frisky Whiskey, but angus would be a smart decision. If you went angus Final Answer, Bushs Unbelievable, SAV Brilliance, Connealy Confidence or SAV Bismarck are all possibilities plus many more. One of the many great things about the angus breed JMO.

Connealy Confidence, We had one out of a first calf heifer 71lbs no help. Stout calf, possibly show heifer build right as of now, just have to see how she grows. I'm gonna try Bush's Unbelievable after seeing some of his calf crop, I'm pretty Impressed.

I have a Tiger Woods heifer that I am going to get out and show one of these days. She's out of a Stockman son dam(angus). She isn't as clean up front as I would like her to be, but I'll throw on a sweat and that will help. She's got a nice top, nice bone and pretty hairy, she's THF by pedigree...
