I have one that came under my radar that I would like to know more about, Shell Shocked. http://cattlevisions.com/bull_detail.php?BullId=4099 I usually only buy semen from Genex or Select Sires. I don't have much luck with the semen I get from Cattle Visions and realize they are just a resale...

We had one calf in October, 49 pound bull calf full term. Out of a first calf heifer. I have one due Feb 1st (heifer). The week before the new spring EPD's came out I used him on a Broker heifer, and of course she stuck (and she has a positive bw already)! CCR (cow camp ranch) had a bunch of...

No I have not. I have not heard how well it sorts either... but I am sure many have done it. His heifers are awesome, bulls not so much.

Built Right, but he is getting expensive! I am so glad I have 5 straws in my tank, purchased when he was alive...

All Iron Hide calves will be percentage, since he is just a half blood himself. We have had 6 (3 bulls, 2 heifers), and love each and every one of them (all of them are 3/4 blood)! Big bone, lots of meat, and great docility! Both heifers should be in our show string this next year. He is one of...

LOVE them! We had a bull calf a few weeks ago, he follows me everywhere! The best darn docility of all the calves are the Iron Hides, and they are stout with lots of bone. The new Spring EPD's came out, and his only improved for calving ease. My Integrate calf is one animal, but knowing this...

Honestly, we have a small sample size, but I have no plans on using him again (I have 9 straws left). Ours lacked performance, and she is just plain and average. Her dam is a Club King x Ebony Joy embryo, and this was her second calf. Her first calf was an Upgrade that is fantastic (we showed...

About Broadway: Our first calf was out of a first calf heifer and hit the ground at 48 pounds. That is him in the picture right after birth. Our second calf was 74 pounds, out of a second calf heifer that had a 78 pound calf her first year. He has 190 calves registered, and his EPD's did go...

Where is his semen sold? How much?

Hooks Broadway has done well for us so far. Small with a white face. http://www.selectsiresbeef.com/index.php/bull-database-view-page?bid=355 Optimizer has also been a good bull. We liked our calves a lot, and bred a bunch back to him this fall so far...

We have one iron hide bull and two heifers. EACH ONE of them are super good. He throws lots of hip, they have plenty of rib, and all three were out of different type cows. The two heifers will be in the show string for sure, and of the three so far, two have had nice white faces. Optimizer we...

Had some of ours pass semen evaluations at 9 months of age with flying colors, meaning they had been fertile a long time. I would lute.

We have several over here, they are OK. They don't have a lot of grow on them, and none will make it to our show pen, but will be nice breeding pieces. Amazingly, two of them have white faces (out of dams with white on the face). They have attitude also, they take a little more work to get them...

someone needs to put me on the mailing list! We are not far from Diamond.... I would have liked to have gone. Maybe next year

Just curious, where are you seeing this?

Gosh, it bothers me when people say to use an angus bull on simmental heifers "to guarantee a small first calf". I have NEVER bought nor used a straw of Angus semen on my Simmi heifers, PERIOD! And I do not assist my heifers (we AI everything, no bull use here). There are so many nice simmi...

I am super happy about our fall calf crop this year. In the Simmental world, many people seek after that pretty white blaze on the face, but it is not so easy to get. We have been lucky if we get one to two a year, even though we try to breed that way (of course, genetics and function is more...

Well, we had our first Hooks Broadway calf yesterday afternoon. Dam is a 22 month old heifer. I knew she was in early labor in the morning, so I checked on her a few times. Went back out and the darn thing was already sucking, but barely standing and still wet! Great vigor, and that heifer had...

I had the same problem with my mill, they will not mix my ration if I insist on the hulls and NOT the pellets, because it clogs up the system. So, they now mix my feed without that part of the ration, and I buy bagged hulls, and add them myself when I get them home. It is a little bit of a pain...

So a soft female? I know he makes great females, I have seen some and loved them as cows. I came across that semen several years ago, when Dalton Lundy had an online sale web page. I bought several sets of embryos and some semen (Voyager, Fat Butt, and the 600U). I only paid $33 (that included...
