    What is the greatest bull ever?

    well this is a tough one for me.  I have only been involved in the AI world for about 15 years so my knowledge of older bulls is limited.  Plus it all depends on what part of the industry you are in. For me it is 734, Dream On, EXT, 6807 and 600U.  There are a lot of bulls from several breed...

    TH vs PHA

    Arby's commercial

    They dont specify which part of the angus the burger is made of.  You can take a holstein and get a good and bad cut out of it, same goes with angus, shortys, simmys, maines and so on.  That is part of the reason we give shots in the neck is so the fast food joints can buy that crap and call it...

    Hip Height Q?

    Ok,  I guess I was leaning more towards the clubby end of things.  Take your favorite bull such as Sunseeker or Who or Headliner or even Smilin Bob, whats their frame score?  Scrotal? (Im guessin its in the teens).  Then again to get a frame score you need an accurate birth date so maybe Ill...
