Any calf reports or pictures of Excalibur calves on the ground?  What does he work best on?

We have 4 calves on the ground out of our Pays To Dream donor. All stout, sound, hairy, with a real cool look to them.  Birthweights were all over, all 4 were et calves 2 heifer and 1 bull were in the 70's and the other bull was high 80's.  My recommendation is use him on extremely big bodied and soft made cows.  This cow has more body than most pb cows and he really clicked on her. Our only disapointment is his api number is terrible but i don't want to get started on what i think of everyone pushing that number lately lol.

We don't personally have any Excalibur calves on the ground this year but I was really impressed with the ones I saw in Denver.  Overall, they had a really nice look to them.  Based on Excalibur himself, I would agree with Wright-Way and try to use him on the deeper sided, softer made cows.
