What do you think?  He is an April calf out of Blindside.  We are real excited about him.  Stout as heck, long bodied, thick, big boned, and backed by a great Mama.

Looks awesome! If he's anything like the Blind Side heifer I've been working with the last 7 months, expect a smaller framed calf that is as wide and deep as you can make them.  Depth on the heifer I've worked on is unreal... Basically drags her belly on the ground.. She is backed by a Meyer-407 Zeke cow of Joe Sullivan's and is a baldy with white legs and underbelly (almost has a Pinzauger type marking). Love the cherry red on that calf. If you don't mind what is the breeding if her dam?

Thank You all!
The cow is a commercial RAx old 4-H heifer that did very well at for me.  She probably has a 1/4 limi in her, but is otherwise all home raised Red Angus with no fancy names.  She is a long, thick, no holes cow.  Deep ribbed and flanked.
I have attached a few pictures of the cow.  1st one is of her the day she calved.  2nd is her on the left and on the right would be a maternal sib by SULL Salute (4 year old cow in production) to the Blindside bull calf.  She enjoyed the feed this winter a bit much.  Fat is sexy when it comes to cows  (clapping).
We have 5 Blindsides and they are all growing out well so far, although young yet.  Only 1 is smaller framed, but that comes from the cow for sure.
