Not stupid question at all..We have used Radar on alot of different cows..never used him on shorthorns yet. Don't see why it wouldn"t work out. And yes he is a Meyer 734 son out of a Lash cow who is a son of Cunia.shelby23 said:Radar is a full brother to whiplash. 307-856-0500. Photo is of a Radar daughter that sold for $50,000.00
