We've been using SAV Final Answer on our heifers the last few years and been getting along great with him.  This year we kept quite a few daughters out of him and looking for another proven sire to breed those to.  Has anyone had much luck using Connealy Final Product?  Or is there any other bull I should be looking at?  Thanks

Put SAV  Bismark back on them.  We have also used SAV Final Answer in the past.  SAV Bismark's EPD's for calving ease are not quite as low as SAV Final Answer he is relatively low.

SAV Final Answer 0035 BW -1.0  SAV Bismark 5682 BW 0.1.

SAV Final Answer 0035 is sired by Sitz Traveler 8180 x SAV Emoulous 8145 dam  and her sire is Bon View Bando 598.
SAV Bismark 5682 is sired by GAR Grid Maker x SAV Abigale 0451 dam and her sire is Schoenes Fix It 826.

Same program different pedigree.

Bismark is a proven sire and I have heard many good things about him.  I am trying him on a group of hiefers this spring.

my vote would be with Lut.  calving ease, with a little more style and punch than you see in most angus cattle these days.  If you can't find Lut semen, PM me and I can get you in touch with someone who has a full brother that is just as good.

I'd be interested in hearing about the full brother Lut?  Any pictures of him or of his calves?  How much for Semen?

Mainly want easy calving.  After that, want them to have adequate growth and easy fleshing.  Also have some eye appeal as well.  I would like to keep some replacements and bull out of the whole deal.  Oh, no reds.  Prefer to keep everything black.

R/M Ironstone older genetics but from all accounts the real deal. Vermillion Nebraska has worked for me in the past and WAR Alliance 9126 6006 if you need a bit more growth

Yes please tell me, who is this full brother to Lut?  What is his name?  Who owns him?  Who handles his semen sales and what is the price?

Sorry been away for a couple days.  It is The Jonny Ringo Bull. that is owned by Styles.  The other bull they have is Smooth Move, he is a sure deal on heifers, maybe doesn't pack the punch that  Lut does though

Would agree with a couple other posters, Northern Improvement and Bismark are very good. We have bred a number of cows to both, especially Bismark this year.
