I figured he would have more hair. But it was real hot when he was born.  I think he is pretty solid.  I think he will get better as he gets older.

Big Boned, cocky fronted, and square hipped is what i have been consistently seeing out of him. Also Brandon said the majority of the calves have been very manageable at birth being mostly around 85 lbs.

Had one this spring out of a double vision x maine cow and that heifer was big.  picking her up at birth i would guess 120 or more.  So wouldnt be saying they come manageable.  and i have talked to others that had big ones as well.

Breeding clubby u r always taking a risk at getting big ones, and with the way solid gold is bred i think the big scare was birth weights, but surprisingly heavy birth weights are not consistent with him though there are some that come heavier than wanted.
