I have seen some excellent TC Freedom 104 calves out of Midland. Aberdeen and Lut I believe go back to Northern Improvement so I don't know if that is the path you want to go down. Freedom adds some size, thickness, bone and some fun hair to play with. Midland gives compliments with the volume. I have also seen some saugahatchee calves that were pretty nice out of midland cows. Just food for thought.
