sire for ali heifer?

[PG]

looking for suggestions for sires to use on my Ali heifer (calving ease)......

 

[CJC]

Got pictures?

 

[ROMAX]

My new SEMEX catologue refers to Gogolo Joe as a sire fore Ali females and he offers calving ease.

This is a picture of her at about 8 months.... she is 15 months now.. hope this helps..

I would use a Angus bull on her. Call Phil Lautner or Harlan Yocham and ask them what works best on his daughters.

Money Man is also a proven easy calver.

I second that. I had a money man bull calf last fall, he came 6 days early, weighed 60lbs at birth, and had lots of vigor.
Here is a link to a thread where you can see a pic of him, hope this helps. Also Money Man is a TH/PHA free PB maine.

I love my Money Man calves.  She looks like she has a nice clean neck (from what I can see) so he should compliment her well.

I did try some Gigolo Joe on my heifers...patiently awaiting them.  Loved the Joe calves I've seen so far

We had a first calf Ali heifer last year that we bred to Hard Core.  She calved unassisted, low birth weight, and got a really nice steer.  I would sure be willing to try that combination again.

metric may be good when she's a proven calver, but as a heifer, I think I might be careful.  my suggestions might include some older bulls, Chill Factor, DJ Caesar or Witch Doctor if you want higher percentage Maine influence.

i might speculate that Semex is suggesting use of Gigiloe Joe on Ali females because of how many are probably out there and that it may boost their sales.

for Angus, I agree, Northern Improvement, or some type of OCC/GCC bull, Magnitude or similar.  You won't be disappointed with Next Step or Emblazon either.

Thanks... I may back away from what i said... thanks for the response.. I will look into all of those bulls... I like that hard core produced a nice steer.....
