    New Herdsire

    I agree his frame and weight are close to ideal for me. What I like most about him is his front 1/3. His head, jaw, and chest are perfect as far as I'm concerned in regard to masculinity. His front 1/3 tells the story for his back 2/3. We need more Shorthorn Bulls that look like this, and less...

    Commercial Shorthorn Bull

    Josh could you post your kill data from the great state feed out? I would enjoy looking through it. Also, my lighter calves always have more vigor up to about 90 lbs. Bigger than that and they are always dead heads.

    Commercial Shorthorn Bull

    3 eagles I thought I would fill you in our production environment. We are in central Illinois and it is spring so green grass is pretty common. The bull pictured consumes Fescue grass year around with possibly 3 months of supplement. By supplement I mean he has to eat the fescue as hay instead...

    Commercial Shorthorn Bull

    Josh I also have a question regarding your Fat and IMF comment. I was on a meat eval team in college and I know that external fat thickness and IMF have absolutely zero correlation. Genetically, the use of external fat thickness alone explains very little in regard to marbling score, and...

    Commercial Shorthorn Bull

    I think it is important to point out that the carcass info you provided does not include any of the actual data collected this spring. Therefore I have attached that info. Additionally, 106 for a BW is to high, but his progeny have not reflected those BW figures, and he is in fact in the top 30%...

    Commercial Shorthorn Bull

    People often discuss on this board that quality commercial Shorthorn genetics are not available anywhere. This guy is my definition of an ideal Shorthorn bull. Homo polled, backed by performance and carcass data, daughters in production, and above all form that follows function.

    Ramrod x JPJ Bull

    I need a little more information.....what is his BW, WW, YW, registration # and is he THF PHAF and DSF. As far as quality I love his pedigree and his phenotype. May be a tick moderate for my liking, but the photo of his dam would make me willing to give him a try.

    2015 Shorthorn Bulls

    33X is not short bodied just exceptionally deep sided. He tends to sire cattle with more than adequate length of body. For my personal taste the longer, deeper, and wider the better. The most weight on a moderate frame of 6 or less is our goal. 33X is a 6 frame and all of his calve tend to...

    2015 Shorthorn Bulls

    I wanted to post a picture of this 33X son. I just turned in his final data to the ASA. Yes he is sure the wrong color, and his BW is suitable for cows, but not heifers. However, he achieved this growth on 1 month of creep prior to weaning and 15 lbs of grain and free choice grass hay since. If...

    2015 Shorthorn Bulls

    Mark the older heifer is out of a WHR Sonny cow that was ALL-American Winter Heifer calf in 2005 or 2006. So I think it is safe to say they look like HIM. He is also homo polled for anyone interested. As far as Muridale Jaxson I tried to get Scot to price that bull the first time I saw a...

    Saskvalley Yesterday 116Y progeny and other

    The article I was referencing was from Beef magazine in which a vet found that when operations had a large sampling of Breech calves they were mostly always from the same sire group. I always thought it was the calf just not turning correctly during gestation. Again, these are just "ideas" not...

    Saskvalley Yesterday 116Y progeny and other

    I am very high on Yesterday and have had 4 calves by him in the last week. However, your post triggered an interest as two of mine were malpresentations with one breech and one with both front legs folded under. I've done some research and breech births are often associated with the sire...
