We ordered some Milk Man and Sun Seeker semen today and we are not sure which bull to use one which cow. The first cow is out of a Draft Pick son and a angus cow. The second is a cow out of Hostage and a angus. Both cows are very sound and have lots of hair. This will be their 3rd calves and their previous calves have had lots of bone, hair and square hips. The Hostage cow has more frame then the first cow. Which bull do you think will click better with which one? I will post pictures of both cows tonight. Here's pictures of their last calves. (cow) The first two pics are of the first cows last heifer calf and the black and white calf belongs to the Hostage cow. Thank You!!!

I'd hate to take a chance & have a double carrier w/ Sunseeker (THC) & the cow out of Draftpick (PHAC).
Not sure of Milk Man's status.

The first on is the Draft Pick grandaughter and the second is the Hostage cow. Not the best pictures they did not want their pictures taken.

I personally am not a sun seeker fan, too many people have big calves, hard to pull them too,
I however am a milkman lover, as we had and awesome calf out of him, just droppped on the ground like nothing,
we are fertilizing lots of eggs with him and the same cow, next year we are dreaming of those calves.  So far I have not heard anything really bad about Milkman.
