Anyone know anything about any of these bulls, and if they’d be considered heifer safe, or what they could add to the equation? Where could one see pictures and/ or more info?
Maines? Truline Maines, TLM Bouncer, HAA Contender, DMCC Body Builder?

If you look several of the tru-lines trace back to DMCC
Bodybuilder is old stuff 1/2 maine and 1/2 OCC... I have seen the 12 y/o bodybuilder he is the real deal... easy keeping, muscled, sound as a 12y/o
I am using him on 2 purebred maine heifers and feel good about it
when I was at DMCC last fall his newborns were little but if you look at weaning they really pack some punch
I was able to buy some embryos out of Bodybuilders sister (a real chunk of a cow) and I am really excited about those also... we are putting them in in about 2 weeks

I was thinking that Body Builder was decent on calving ease. I'm sure Mark Tennenbaum could say one way or the other. I have also heard a lot of good things about Body Builder.

DMCC BB puts some awesome calves on the ground...ability to show and great genetics. Mark is a great guy to work with.

Body builder is the stoutest calving ease bull Ive seen-and Ive seen his calves,full sibs etc.They come like ratty little Angus,and just keep expanding. Heres a picture of bodybuilders full bro breeding cows as a long yearling,if you go to DMCC"s site and see him at 4 years old-and Bodybuilder at ? you will see what I mean.He works on alot of cattle-especially maines,simms,and shorthorns O0

She is currently carrying an AFR Banker 1W (AMAA Reg. #402362) calf that is due the first week of July. Once she calves, we plan on flushing her to Rumor Mill for maternal-oriented calves; she will then be bred to Monopoly 2 or BIM for a more terminal animal.
