Seem to be bred very similar-I never see this breeder advertise the full bloods etc like they used to with Warbonnet (think that was them)-But they seem to keep producing really good full bloods: always soundest by a mile when I saw them at Illinois or Denver O0

What a tremendous group of bulls. The length and depth on all of them is way above the average. Great hindquarter shape for the most too.
Impressive!

Although its been since 1998 that I had any calves out of Vistas Sentra 14 U ( i think) called Flash by Harold Hoskins I always liked looking at the mcullough full bloods in West Va and the ones from Texas picture wise FLASH remains the prettiest fronted straight line full blood ive ever seen HE WAS VERY BIG AND LEGGY BUT TALK ABOUT THICK That bunch in the brochure are  the deepest ribbed and probably most massive butted and topped Ive seen in my travels I dont see how tho-you could breed them to anything but a pretty big cow-And Shorthorns have so many generations of hard calving Shorthorns behind them Id be a little afraid of them-Not on the maine end on THE SHORTHORN END Recently I flushed a 0 bw Shorthorn cow who never produced a big calf over 12 years to Hardings Capital Gains and produced two over 125 pound trainwrecks DAM IF THOSE BULLS PICTURED AINT GREAT LOOKING THO-BEST MADE MOST BALANCED FULL BLOODS IVE EVER SEEN I KNOW IT DOESNT COUNT FOR MUCH THO  JMO O0

THANKS FOR THE GOOD COMMENTS. I HAD 6 BULL CALVES SEPT/OCT 2019 AND THESE ARE 5 OF THEM. TRIED TO GET THE 3 OF THEM TO OKC PEN SHOW BUT FAILED. I KEPT 3 OF THE 4 HEIFERS BORN WITH THEM WHO ARE COMPARABLE IN TERMS OF QUALITY. ALSO KEPT 7 HEIFERS BORN A MONTH OR 2 LATER. THERE ARE 9 BULLS AND 5 HEIFERS IN THE FALL 2020 GROUP. COULD EVEN GET A BETTER DENVER/OKC? PEN OF BULLS FROM THEM TOO. I'LL HAVE TO START WORKING ON IT EARLIER THIS TIME.
