One of my buddies was telling me that he was looking at the display bulls & saw what he thought was a Lowline Angus. Being very interested, he went to check it out, but he said that it turned out to be an Angus bull & it was displayed by "Trendsetter Genetics". This bull was named "Time Changer".
He also was telling me that a "heifer pregnancy" out of "Rito N Bar" (born in 1960) sold for $44,000.
It's great to see the Angus breed trying to "go back to their roots" & trying to become more like the Lowline Angus.

My favorites were
1. TM GUS (should have heard the crowd when he won)
2. I liked most of Jungles bulls.( lot 8 sold to Select Sires first shorthorn bull for them in 24 years)
3. I liked Ivy League LOADS of hair and just a dang good looking bull.
4. Lake Effect (what can I say free beer and coozys get me every time. Wish he would have been there in person.)

My buddy mentioned Houston as 1 of the bulls that impressed him. Was surprised that nobody had mentioned him & now that I've seen the pics, I'm even more surprised. Nice looking Charolais cross.
Actually a lot of nice looking bulls.

I didn't get to see as many or spend enough time looking at the the display bulls as I would have liked, but I did have a couple of initial impressions. Houston kind of caught my eye--but I didn't get to see him moving. I thought a lot of the display bulls looked like they could have some structural/movment concerns. Overall, I guess I wasn't overly impressed with the display bulls(the ones I saw anyway) as a group.
You all know what a fan I am of TM Gus but I also have a couple of other shorties I like. Some people may not like to admit it, but IMHO you have to be impressed with the depth and quality of the Sullivan pen of five. I think we'll hear much more about Primetime down the road and the Outback bull also kind of catches my eye. I also think the Proud Venture bull will become well known because of his daughters if he produces what I think he will. I guess these aren't really very surprising choices considering how well they did in the ring out here and who their owners are, but I'm trying to give an honest opinion of the bulls--not the personalities. I think these bulls all have a chance to become as well known and as popular as some of the elite bulls in the breed today. I also think they are good enough to earn that notoriety--no matter who's promoting them.
I also really like the Maine bull that Braun's bought at the auction on Saturday night. He was the Reserve Champion overall on Sunday, and although there were only five bulls in the entire show, IMHO, I still think this bull has a chance to become well known and respected in his breed. I don't pretend to be an expert, but as an observer at a lot of shows, I feel Bremer's program has produced some really,really nice cattle, particularly the last couple of years.
Just my humble opinions--they're sometimes not very valuable to anyone but me!!
