Figured that was the case. They are definitely something to be proud of and out of a bull that sounds like is pretty dang good.

This is what I was thinking, but without seeing her on the move I was hesitant to comment. Could just be the way the picture was taken too. She is pretty thick though, market heifer or breeding? On the other hand the steer looks quite remarkable, but as above I haven't seen him walk. If he is...

They have all been around high quality facilities prior to building this one, I doubt there are any major problems with theirs.

A great perspective about Bojo, and I couldn't agree more. I had an awesome Bojo x ChiAngus (Cow was 90% Angus) heifer that I regret not keeping to this day. The guy that ended up getting her off my auction was in love with her but said "she will go way out of my price range". Well terrible...

This may be relevant information for the OP when deciding a son to use. For those that have used Unstoppable has his BWs average about the same, higher or lower then most the other HW/Monopoly bulls we use?

Ya, that is actually part of the reason I didn't include M20 or Fu Man Chu in my original list. M20 hasn't had one born and I haven't seen enough Fu Man Chu's to suggest him.

Anyone seen, have or have pictures of any Grizzly Bear calves? Bred our top cow to him this past spring. I love the calves I have seen and his pedigree, but haven't seen a whole lot of calves. Can PM me or post here. Thanks

If they are serious about 85lb BW they will be hard pressed to find a clubby bull that produce solid calves with a consistent BW below 85lbs. Too many variables go on.

Without seeing the cows: Unstoppable, Monopoly2,3,4, Monopoly Money, Ohio Senator are some of the recent all black direct sons/clones of Monopoly being used heavily.

Holy cow, that female with the painted up in heifer in the last picture has some serious power/bone/substance. What is she?

Sounds like a fun tour Mark, keep us updated!

Pretty good feeling when those "leftovers" go on to do good isn't it. Congrats.

There is actually a distributor/site out of Stapleton, NE called Bull Barn Genetics. They have quite a few more bulls then Cattle Visions from my experiences of trying to look up bulls. I use Cattle Visions mainly for searching/researching, but Bull Barn is a good place to look if you can't find...

I think No Worries was an excellent choice. Daddy of Them All should give you a good steer or heifer. If ever decide to shoot for a heifer out of her and she is THC, Grizzly Bear (THF Monopoly x Irish Whiskey) might work.

She looks good, like said she isn't perfect but one to be proud of. What's her pedigree? Who is she bred to? Who are you looking to breed her to in future?

Watched a fair last week, every market animal was felt by the judge.

I like the bottom heifer the best. I wouldn't use Monopoly semen, for price reasons, on unproven females. I think MAB would give you the chance of black and white but could also give you the chance of a crazy color. I think MAB would really let you know whether they will produce or not, as he...

This is important as it will show them if it is (or isn't) the quality of calf they are looking for. Have to be careful with your reputation, you don't want to make someone drive who knows how many miles and not have the caliber they deal with (not saying you don't by any means).

Awesome cow, could always pick which 3 of the calves you liked/was best and breed her back that way. If you were willing to go a little more clubby I think Unstoppable would be a good matchup.

I've been thinking about this thread and trying to compare our fair to the situations I am hearing on hear and from watching neighboring counties. I should start off saying our show is big compared to most of our neighboring counties. These aren't exact numbers, but if I remember right I think...
