Depends who you ask and what you are specifically looking to raise. Market animal, probably fine. Breeding animal, probably not.

Depends what your goals are with her. State of Mind, Comfort Zone, Second to None, Daddy's Money, Maternal Perfection, Black Power Play, Unstoppable are some popular names in the club calf realm right now.

Anyone have an Fu Man Chu's as cows?

Ordered HIA and Fu semen yesterday, so I will see in a year!

(thumbsup) Any thoughts on the others?

Those HIA's caught my eye as well.

Wanting opinions, thoughts and experiences on a few bulls. What do they add/ what type of cow do they click with? Here I Am, Fu Man Chu, Huff N Puff, and Second to None. Thanks!

This is all based off judgement of a 3 month old calf keep in mind. But I'd say in this case he didn't take away frame but he didn't add any. Calf isn't a shrimp by any means but doesn't appear to be large framed. Had her in by a similar aged Stock Broker hfr this morning and the SB was minimal...

Progressing good, however she will be more moderate built when it's all said and done.

I am just beginning to breed some simmental genetics and I only have one calf out of this bull but she's a stud. W/C Innocent Man. Has some of the bloodlines you seem to be interested in above and is heifer safe.

Good looking calves Gargan.

Thanks for the information.

Had a beautiful heifer calf out of a CCF vision heifer I picked up this winter yesterday. I'm pretty excited for the future of her mother, but was interested in reports on Innocent Man females. How do they mature, what are their strengths and weaknesses, are they making decent mothers? Hang in...

Congrats friend!

Agreed.

I knew purchasing mature cows was a sneaky good option, but did not know the popularity behind it. Thanks for those responses, might be an avenue I look harder into in the future. With declining beef prices, I think we might see a few more of these. In all honesty I think WinterSpringsFarm is...

Both responses emphasized "consistency" of some matter in females, which I think is something sometimes people over look. You only get 1 calf a year, using conventional methods, so it is important to take advantage of that calf and not waste or at least minimize the opportunity cost of playing a...

Something I have always thought about and had a brief conversation with Gargan the other night about, but would like to hear some other thoughts. What is your preference for how to build your herd? Doesn't matter the breed or end goal, just curious to what you think is the most effective and...

Anyone heard any reports on Stock Broker calves?

Welcome back Terry, thanks for the update and expert thoughts.
