Olson Family Shorthorns said:Bawndoh- Thanks for the pics and the report from Hawkeye! The bulls you have pictured here look pretty good to me. You said that you saw Major League? Do you have any pics of him to post? If so, I'd be pretty interested in seeing them, I've been told that he would work on some of my Shorthorns.

Thickness is a term used to describe natural muscling. Usually animals are just thicker than others, although some may have thicker rear ends, and a not-so-thick topline. You cannot feed thickness into an animal. Fat makes them look thicker, but any good cattleman can see through fat.
