Since he made you so much money maybe you could buy a banner add or post more appropriately in the for sale section.

If they speak for themselves surely your posts don't need to continually be in the discussion section.

Pony up and buy an ad. It will give you more credibility as well.

Sorry, but who are you directing that comment to?

Iron man is a th carrier. He is papered chi and will be high enough percent that his calves will have papers under the new chi rules. I am not an owner but a good friend of mine just bought him and I asked.

Knabe. You need to buy some of that I Da Man semen and don't worry about a d@^^ banner. That's a really good sucker if he travels and looks anything like his THC full brother. Phenotype at it's best.

want to see some bags.  at this point, i'm tired of the downward tilting bags with the forward quarters nowhere near even to the rear.  also tired of the fluff with no quarter.  want to see more working clothes as that's what the majority of mine are doing.  also want to see more mothering.

Yep. Maybe not bred to be super maternal, but who knows. Sullivan's in Texas have some full bother's and sister's in blood as well, and all are designed the way I like them to look. Especially appreciate the feet and legs on him and his siblings. I think he'll work great on a soggy type cow and would not be afraid to line breed him a bit for those clubbies. Might be a good combo with some Monopoly and/or MainexAngus blood.

good maternal bull  (thumbsup)
Why? Please I'm dying to hear why you like the bull other than his pedigree.....and why do you like the pedigree?


I personally like both phenotype and the fact the siblings were very successful in the show ring. His genetics alone will complement quite a good handful of lineages. As for maternal females...Probably it will depend on the cow families he's bred to.
With all that said, I think you will see him produce his share of show ring winners. Will he be functional for the Beef Industry? I don't have a clue.

My question to him is actually not even related to the bull lol. I just want to see his thinking process......I actually find the bull interesting.

If you are after maternal Who Da Man offspring then you might consider Man Up, he is Winegardner and Sullivans Who Da Man x Bainbridge Meyer sire.  All of his calves have looked really good, especially the heifers.  The bull calves should make good fat steers or herd bulls, very balanced and sound.  Who Da Man's mother and full sister are still in production and produce good calves year after year.  A couple friends of ours have several Who Da Man daughters and they are all excellent mothers and produce a lot of milk, they really produce consistent quality.  We have a yearling Who Da Man daughter and she is no show piece, but should make an awesome mom, just a little nutty though, but isn't that what makes good females.

The only that that I don't like about who da man is that his mother is a rat tail. And some if his sisters are rat tails.

If you're wanting females, I'd agree with you on Man Up.  Who Da Ma x Meyer. The only fault IMO, even though he has a high neck and good shoulder, he's a little pain fronted, compared to the other bulls.  I'm going to breed a heifer to yet another Who Da Man offspring, Mr. Who Da Man 322Y (2012 ACA National Champion).  Not clubby.  A really nice bull that'll produce good, consistent Chi cattle.  They are expecting calves by him this year.  Some even out of the show heifers that were in the show barn with him last year in which they let him live cover as a yearling.

I think I said earlier, I love Who Da Man offspring.  I'd be willing to bet I'd love your heifer.  I have a heifer calf (Angus) at home I know won't show but love her more each day.  She has what I look for in a cow.  That's why I bought her, to produce.  

KNABE, I do not nor did I ever own any part of any of the bulls mentioned.  I just like that there are a few bulls out there that are not sons. of sons of sons of Heat Wave or Monopoly and that are high enough % Chi to make any resulting females eligible for ACA sanctioned shows, sales, etc.  As more events will follow the lead of the ACA.  I think that's why some events even dropped the Chianina breed because a 1.5% Chi heifer out of a Maine/Charolais/Angus cow is not a Chianina.

Anyway, good luck to Executive Sires.  I really like your bull.  With younger heifers only, though, I'm going to get a calf or two out of them before I use him with his higher BW.  But he is on my short list.

Are you still going to be at the Ohio Expo with semen?  And what is his birth weight?

We hope to have I Da Man semen shortly. He is currently at REI in Stillwater, Oklahoma. You can order it directly through me and get on the list for semen.

Thanks,
