I had a chance to see him today.  He looked real simular to the pic. in the catalog.  Real deep bodied, lots of flesh, yes some fat too, but he wasn't all fat n fluff.  Big middled, lots of capacity.  Would have liked to see him a little wider based, and a little longer pasturned.  He didn't...

He is pretty cool looking, but I don't know much of anything about the simmi deal.  I just thought I would poke fun at your scanner, it must work a lot like mine.

I like the montana heifer and the pride bloodstone as well.  I talked to bill the other day after he first started posting some pics on line and he told me that the 2202 daughter was gunna be pretty darn good.  I am a big fan of 2202, maybe that's why he told me I would like her so much ;).  I...

It's funny that the first thing you say when you are considering him a "calving ease sire" is his babies birth weights and not the shape of his babies. (lol)  I know next to nothing about him, so I can't comment on it.  I would ask around and see what people that have used him and on what kind...

I'm not trying to be "so accusatory".  This is what breeders have told me.  When shorties needed all that size  they did the same types of things.  My grandfather got around this by bringing a milking shorthorn bull into the mix instead of going totaly out of the way like others did, it took a...

That's funny! Not that it happened to you, just that someone told you that it would NEVER happen.  Talk to some of those old time breeders...there may have been some horned...or scurred critters in  your bulls pedigree along the way.  Some breeders took some short cuts when they were trying to...

I totally agree with all the comments made about the guy adding to the conversations at times with some insite and a different perspective that many of us can benafit from learnig about other views and experiences.  I may be differnet than others in that it makes it VERY hard for me to listen to...

It's been quite a few years since I have been down to that sale, but I may just have to make the trip to see what all is going on down there.  It's rare to see that many good looking females in a state sale in the spring, or at least it seems that way to me.  I'm not in the market for a heifer...

I need a ride for a sept born heifer if anyone is heading out with a trailer.  Give me a call if you could take her with you.  Thanks  517-775-0245

Bulls look good.  I realy like to see them in that, not all fluffed up.  To me it makes a statement about what's important to your program, that your not trying to make them something there not.  No need to try to make them look like show cattle, they are real world production type cattle.  I...

Careful there, your MASSIVE ignorance is showing through again.  I have made some pretty darn good steers, back when we just didn't have the cow power to make the better breeding stock, out of TH/PHA free cows.  If they are just good cows not show heifers that you try to make a cow, they can...

Grandpa used a bull for a while called Spectrum that was a CD.  Made some real good cows...some were a bit bigger framed than what I would call ideal, but that may have had somthing to do with grandpas cow herd.  There weren't too many moderate framed cows running around out in his pastures. ...

I talked to Bob and a few others about those bull calve full sibs...I couldn't come up with the money to get them bought at the time and I thought they would be long gone by now.  It sounded like they were pretty darn good bulls for the show ring thing.  I don't think anybody would suggest...

Good to hear.  Like I said, no hard feelings.  After seeing those heifers in the catalog as hearing about them this fall...I figured he was realy gunna be doing the job out there.   

How did the Maxim semen sell? I don't know John at all...but, have tried to det ahold of him since last summer on some semen on the bull, phone callsand e-mails, with no reply on each attempt that I made.  I think pretty highly of the bull for no more than I have seen and heard about him, but...

OK, I'm computer alliterate.  Can't get my computer at home to download pdf files anymore for some reason.  What lot were the cates embryos out of red rose adn elderado??

I wish I had paid more attention or had more of a passion for this stuff when I was younger because I was told by MANY people that my aunt Linda was quite the hand.  I still hear stories today about how grampas cattle were never the same after she quit running the show cattle.  My mom was a...

Momma?  Looks good, would like to know more about him and his brother.  What are the plans for these two bulls?
