Thanks for the replies everyone! The steer I have this year is the best I've had. I LOVE him! He's thick and has a great gut on him. The people I bought him off of are great too. They really know their stuff and don't overcharge. It's the Lange's who raised Money Train this year for Lautner. I...

Just wanted to know what eveyone thought on the subject. Recently in our county people have spent loads of money (taking out a house loan) to buy calves (just steers). I'm beginning to think that it's the parents trying to win a banner and not their child, maybe I'm wrong? It's very hard to...

I bred my simmy/angus cow to WA that is due early April. This is my first ever AI so I'm very excited!

This is the first year of using purina show show fitter's edge. It's been great. My steer has not been off feed, hair has been great, and he looks filled out all the time.

I'm on a judging team for my school. For me personally, I like to choose the most complete animal. I'd rather pick a steer who covers all the bases then go for a steer who is the thickest or widest topped. Completeness is what I try to go to as far as when I pick out my calves and when I judge.

Money Train is at collection filling orders. He's not at Denver.

Oh well maybe I'm mistaken lol

I recently talked to the person who raised him. He will not be at Denver. He's at collection filling orders.

I will definitely remind you this spring. What did you breed to your Monopoly the first time around?

After doing some research people are using I80 on their clubby females and seem to not have many problems with him. I will seriously consider him and do some more research. Do you know of anyone personally that I can ask how he did on Monopoly heifers. Also what is te semen price? I've seen...

Ok I just checked his numbers. He's an 8.0 in CE and -1.3 in BW

Ok yes I will definitely talk to Freddy. Unforunately no, I only have a straw of Walks Alone and a straw of Grandmaster. I'm only in the $25-$30 range. Keep the comments coming!

Ya that's all he said bad about her, which I kind of knew that going into the ring because of listening to his other classes. But she really i very thick. We are trying to change her feed a little so she doesn't get overconditioned. How many pounds d you suggest?

Thanks for the comments! Here is a pic of the line up. I was thinking about selling her after HBC .... and still thinking on it, but we will see. Yes I was thinking about using I80, but on her second calf. Do you think possibly N. Improvement or New Design would work and give me either a...

This is my February monopoly heifer out of a doctor who cow. I showed her at HBC and she didn't do so well. All the judge said was that she was too terminal and steery for him. Unfortunately there is not a market heifer division that I can show her in. What I want to do is breed her next early...

Good to hear! The cow I used him on is one of our bigger framed cows who's got some bone and thickness but maybe lacks some depth and flank, but her calves have made up for that. Just looking for something a little more showy and hope he does the trick. This will be my first AI calf

Wow! Really hope that my Walks Alone calf is that nice! I bred him to my angus/simmy cow that is due in March. How did the cow do on calving and what is the cow like?

Actually I have a red heifer that has Chianina papers and is registered as a Chi. She is a monpoly x dr. who heifer born early February of this year. She's big boned and very stout made in a more moderate package and would make good steers when done showing. I have posted pics and a video of her...

Is anyone going to the Hoosier Beef Congress next week? What is everyone showing/selling? Does anyone know who the steer or heifer judge is? Also does anyone know if there are past Hoosier Beef Congress Grand Drives/classes online??

I saw Money Train in September and he was awesome!!!
