We have a Mono $ steer this year. He is weighing about 1300 now, and will go to the County Fair in a couple weeks. We bought him for a late September show, and want to take him out once before then.
I guess I will say that he looks pretty good. Is he the greatest show steer to walk the face of the earth...of course not.
What I like about the few that I have seen is they are real "honest". Very smooth made, more lower quarter than a Monopoly, and naturally deep flanked.
I have never seen one with great hair. I would say that our steer is more along the lines of bad haired. I am hoping it won't matter although his hair is starting to come along now.
I like this steer a lot, but he has a little too much front end to be great.
