I have some clubby heifers that I am going to be breeding later this spring. These heifers have plenty of muscle, bone and hair; just need to add some style. What are some Angus bulls that will throw style? Prefer bulls carried by ABS. Thanks, did a search but didn't find enough.

NI, Raptor, Bismark, Rodman, Brilliance, Final Product - All are heifer safe

If you want ABS Sexed Heifer Brilliance would be my choice

Raptor is a good choice to use on heifers.  Calves come easy and have a pretty good look to them.

I have some clubby heifers and I also go through ABS. I am going to use Northern Improvement as I think my ABS rep can get semen throught ORIgen. They have a partnership together. On my other heifers I was going to use sexed heifer semen, and wanted to use brilliance but I think ABS only has sexed male semen on him. (I would talk to your rep to see if that is correct but i think the website said they only have M sexed semen). I might go with 878 sexed heifer semen if I can't get brilliance.

I really like NI for heifers. He throws real nice ones so you don't have to waste a year on getting a live calf.

i do believe Jacee's Ramblin Fever would add style but Muddy Creek is looking for a bull for his heifers and JRF has a +5.9 bw don't think that would turn out to well
