Have couple of sunseeeker females to breed this spring.  They both could use some help in strucure and body capacity.  One is th carrier and testing the other now.  Both are really stout and hairy cows.  Had a nice i-80 out the one that was a hfr.  Just not sure what everyone else thinks works good on these breedings.

If you want females, I'd find a super Angus bull to use.  The cows should have plenty of hair and muscle.

If you want females, you could dry the angus bull first and goal from select sires.

  From reading your post / question, you seem to have figured out where the Sunseeker cows need to be protected IMO.

Really good option, but you gotta watch the pasterns on them.
