We had two McKinley bull calves a year ago. Both are completely different. Size wise they seemed to follow their dams. One bred to a larger frame chi x cow, not known for her gentleness, calf is large framed and you could pet him in the pasture, not much to look at show wise. Other bred to a...

Thank You very much. I didn't stay for the semen and the majority of the embryos. Sounds like I should have, ha ha.

Yes, that's the bull. Don't know about disposition or anything else, but they were correct and powerful.

Forgot to add that the Enough Said cattle were very impressive in my opinion

Great Lots 3,7,10,12,97,199. Must confess I was there but lost my catalog. Left after the Caliente embryos sold. I should have pulled the trigger a few times in that bunch but did not. There was also a spring born bull that sold for 1500 early in the sale but I can't remember the lot number...

DataBank sired real style, all I remember. JFK was I think advertised as 1/3 Maine, 1/3, Chi, 1/3 Angus. Both were good bulls but, I believe DataBank was used more heavily.

Don't know if it is still true or not but Who Made Who sired the most State Fair Champion steers ever! He was considered a terminal sire for the longest time. There were so many cows bred to him that there had to be some good heifers in there. All of a sudden he was a bull that produced great...
