    What happened to Hooks Broadway?!?!

    After studying the new Spring 2017 EPD's compared to Fall 2016 on the American Simmental Association site, I noticed that the MM numbers on both W/C United and W/C Lock Down dropped by almost exactly 10 points, similar to how much Broadway and CCR Wide Range changed. REALLY makes you wonder if...

    Best Simmental Bulls right now

    Figured I'd try and revive this old gold again! What bulls are you guys planning on using this coming spring? How are those fall calves looking?

    Angus and Simmi bulls!

    Hey everyone! Any info/insight on any of these bulls? I have a friend wondering and I'm a bit curious myself! How are daughters looking/performing? Muscling? Fleshing ability? Depth? Rear leg structure? Thanks in advance! HILLTOP OPEN RANGE *especially curious about this guy!*...

    What happened to Hooks Broadway?!?!

    EXACT same thing happened to CCR Wide Range who I bred some heifers to last spring. Fall 16 EPDs came out and he went from 11 or higher down to around a 3.3 for calving ease (which was WAY more than the possible change factor) but kept a (-) BW EPD. Seemed fishy but I didn't use him anymore. I...

    Best front-end/neck?

    I second High Regard! IMO he worked best on cows with some size and power.

    Best front-end/neck?

    My American Pride's have been pretty clean fronted, even when used on my heavy fronted cows! I had a friend who suggested Chopper and Bandwagon for cleaning up fronts a while back, but I haven't had a chance to see any calves recently. I didn't think my Shock Force fronts were too bad for the...

    GLS INTEGRATE

    Thank you for the insight and picture, Firesweep! (thumbsup) I'm really surprised she performed like that for you by looking at Integrate's EPD profile, but I guess EPD's aren't the whole story! You still liking your Ironhide calves?

    Fellow Hereford Breeders!

    I looked up the bull and he looks impressive! Any calf reports? Thank you again! (thumbsup) I'm heavily considering Stockman now. Are there any other Herefords out there that you've been liking?

    Optimal recip research

    I'm also curious about putting the same CIDR back in the cow after AI service. I haven't been brave enough to try it after I've talked to a few different people about it and have been getting conflicting responses. ;)

    Insight and Ironhide calves

    Good looking set of cattle! Thank you for sharing and best of luck with them!  (thumbsup)

    Fellow Hereford Breeders!

    Thanks for your input! The cows that I'm planning on using him on would be mature cows. They've spit calves out like sunflower seeds to DB Hard Drive with a CE EPD of -11.3. These couple of cows don't technically have EPD's and I'm not too concerned about it. I'm just looking for a progeny...

    Best way to grow hair without a cooler

    Back in the day, I would rinse mine a lot when the weather was anywhere close to warm. And brush, brush, brush, brush. (thumbsup)
