The original question was aimed at fulfilling the needs of a 100 cow operation.  Not sure the 5-10 cow guy is as concerned w selling on the grid (much less making a profit selling by the pound). Xbar raises a good question - one that exposes a weakness in the US shorthorns; an answer to this...

They look good!  Could you provide their registration #?  Do you have a picture of the dam? 

Anyone remember when they wouldn't have been able to name this bull?    ;)  <beer>

Its like deja vu all over again - http://www.steerplanet.com/bb/the-big-show/any-interest-in-red-purebred-maines/msg340661/#msg340661

great minds think alike!

Does anyone else thing the Dodge truck ad w/ Paul Harvey speaking over beautiful pictures was a great add?  Wow!!!  Well done Dodge Ram!!!

Niners in a blowout!!!  45-17....kaepernick MVP Ray Lewis and his drama queen act is getting painfully old. 

Very popular towards what was probably the tail end of the frame score era - did very well in the showring and had tons of performance..sire was TNT Fastrack (10 frame, won Denver twice I believe and was sired by JIT's bull Duke of Dublin) out of a Marc 1V cow that went back to Hoyt breeding. ...

GS Touche hasn't been mentioned.  He's listed as double clean on ASA.  Born in 1991, and could sire competitive steers today. Words 4W Casper is listed as double clean and has what could be called a "clubby" pedigree.  Born in 1995. Windridge Leggs 200 ET - listed as double clean - born 2006.  ...

Can someone post a picture of talladega from Denver?

If you're referring to the two time denver champ Farah "aka The Female of the Nineties" as the enviable one, keep in mind she had a 110lb BW, 8+ frame, and her sire and grand sire had 9+ frame scores.  I imagine calving might be an issue in a group of cows that were the exact same genetically.

There goes his commercial acceptability!  Joke!!! ;)  Congratulations!!!  Your bull looks great!!

I hope the sale goes really well.  These sales have def helped promote the breed here in the US.  There are next too no shorthorn breeders (in the US) willing to put up the capital required to pull Off a venture of this size and scale.  Lots 27 and 31 would be my pick (assuming they had a...

I would love to hear their explanation.  Reputation is so important in business.

I wonder why its not catching on

I'm a shorthorn nerd.  It was more process of elimination.  I thought he was one of the old school Canadian bulls but when it wasn't who i originally thought i looked at Okotoks past herd sires on his website and saw he had a solid red bull named GAFA captain mcbest (he looked right and the name...

Thanks for posting this pic!  I really like this type of Shorthorn.  I imagine he had to be easier calving and easier doing than the ayatollah's, Clark's, maine's, and chi's that were about to take over as the popular Shorthorn genetics....but he probably couldn't hold a candle to them in the...

This is tough...it was too soon for the ayatollahs (and he doesn't look it)... he doesnt look irish and appears to be smooth polled...he may be from the aussie lines, but he seems to have a similar look to the Four Point Major bull...I really dont have a clue but I'm going to guess Winalot Captain

Gonna need a hint on this one...nice pic! 

Mt ST Helen's facts? ??? This debate is entertaining to say the least! (clapping)
