I have had really good luck with Walks Alone.  My cows are a little on the big side and mostly Simmental, SimAngus and a few Charolias influenced females.  He makes them thick and pretty with lots of hair and reduces frame. No soundness issues or calving problems so far.

I've had probably our best calves ever out of our worst cows this past spring. he really changes the more common/shallow made cows.

Thought he looked pretty good for a clubby at stud. Freaky thick naturally. More moderate in shape.

saw him a couple weeks ago.  Isnt huge but is deffinitly bigger than people say.  Saw a ton of bulls 2 weeks ago and he has to be the best one.  Other good notable bulls were BIM and Monopoly Money wasnt bad.  Saw Boardwalk though and looked like hell.

I agree with most of the comments. In my opinion he is a cow changer, you can breed him to an ordinary cow and he will add size and structure plus hair for the ring. I use him on my taller cows cause he does down size them but sure adds ALOT of muscle and depth. I would love to use him on a good Charolais cow cause I think he would produce one great smoke colored calf. I have not had any calving issues either and all my Walks Alone calves have been sound.

I have never used so much of one bull, i will have a pile of walks babies coming. Use him on medium to larger framed cattle with a good shoulder. How was he compared to bim? I have calves from both bulls coming this spring.

I've had really good luck with walks alone on medium sized clubby mamas. The calves came out thick hairy and monster boned.
