    Semen decisions

    Talledega isn't bad but bigger bw Sull Payday- low bw but won't help front end style Hot Commodity- off market, good quality but can throw some narrow ones every now and again. I-80- great show calves with low bw but I've had one just not grow. Mercedes Benz- calving ease but can get a lil...

    Old shorthorn semen

    Cunia maybe a 100 to 150, dividend maybe 20. Dividend made trump and that's about it

    New ASA site

    It has been a little difficult registering calves and then even once I registered them and had the correct info entered, it refused to accept some. After several phone calls and manual overrides by the ASA staff I thought I had it all solved. Then the papers came. Now not only are the different...

    Correction. You have to be 15/16 shorthorn to be considered a pure. Anything lower all the way down to a 50% can show as a plus. Anything down to a 25% can be registered as a plus but is not eligible to show

    DJANGO

    Just saw him last week as a mature bull. I liked him more there then out at Denver. Don't know about calves out of him. But he's developed into a very nice, masculine bull who isn't a sawed off midget like some of his counterparts

    Old School Bulls

    I'd also like to point to the fact that frictions have become hot this winter including a top seller at Riemann's and a new son in Lautner Farms lineup called "Blast from the Past". Some other people must be thinking along the same lines.

    Old School Bulls

    Completely agree with you on the Kris Black sale. The "Cream of the Crop" is so correct. I'm pretty sure the sale is the 13th though. He is kinda where I got the idea for using some more old school genetics. I figured that since I don't have the ability to handle range cattle in central Illinois...

    Old School Bulls

    Kinda my thought. I figured if I could make some calves that offer genetics similar to some older donors it might be interesting. I like doctor who as well and thought he might be interesting on the resulting daughters since he is calving ease and to stack some maternal traits. My main goal for...

    Old School Bulls

    My thoughts are by using something a lil older that it will be further removed from today's genetics. I love unstoppable but monopoly and sounds would be close genetically. My thought was that by using older bulls the daughters might click better with the next great supersire (the monopoly son...

    Old School Bulls

    I've been thinking about trying to jump into the clubby steer market, but before I dive in I want to start by building a solid Maine/Angus base. I have an Angus cow that will be getting bred for her 3rd calf and her first calf daughter coming into production this year. In an attempt to think...

    2015 Calves

    That's the goal isn't it? Good genetics that are not only practical but have showering appeal? I know that's what I strive for.

    Fakefords, what are they? Are they registered Herefords?

    A "Fakeford" is just another name for a Hereford classifier. They throw a Hereford color pattern but aren't purebred. Made Right, Deadliest Catch, Landshark, Carpe Diem, Red Rock are all "Fakefords" to name a few

    I'd drink that kool-aid. Very impressed with his picture. Can't wait to start using him in our shorthorn plus program. Should match up well with a lot of cows

    best Angus bull

    Brilliance seems to be a popular choice but I bred a very plain commercial Hereford heifer to trifecta and the result was pretty neat. I'd vouch for either
