NO FAIR!!!! Most Shorthorn people are in Louisville right now. If Sonny has to lose, at least it will be to a worthy bull.

  Even if the 2 bulls were @ the same price and I could have either bull, I would take Sonny hands down, and I like WMW. Brent

That was my vote!

too many youngens here that don't remember the crippled messes that WMW sired when people used him on lots of cows. He isn't half the bull that Sonny is and I'm not a big Sonny fan. Heatwave is the only thing that kept WMW from falling clear off the radar, as they just happen to be complimentary to each other and both owned by the marketing machine. This round is real screwy with WMW over Sonny and Cunia over HW???? Maybe it's everyone being at NAILE?

  I agree Throttle. WMW was dead in the water until HW X WMW happened more than once. If I'm looking at cattle and WMW is involved somewhere in the pedigree, I look @ structure long and hard. Take for example Alias, good bull, you hear and see quite a few real goods early on, but not very many closers out of him. You are starting to see some Alias young cows seeming like they may work, but I don't usually find good structure in the Alias calves. If Sonny had lived an old life and semen was 20 bucks, can you imagine how many Sonny cows would be walking around? I know I would have to have a bunch.  The one common thread that most of the bulls in the Elite 8 are maternal, all but HW, of coarse he is very, very hard to get around in a steer showring. Looking @ Cunia's structure, was he on the verge of being a buckler? Brent

I extended the voting to 5 five days for this round hoping to cover the Louisville crowd coming and going. I can look into trying to extend the deadline so we are sure everybody who wants a say this round has one.

Just some stats from these two bulls
97 votes so far in this contest
60 for WMW
37 for Sonny

Who Made Who previous votes per round
67 – 72 – 54

Sonny’s previous votes per round
49 – 54 – 42

It looks even if Sonny would match his best effort to date he would still be about 7 voters shy of winning this round.
