AI, personally for a big cow I would say turton or chunky monkey,,if you want to buy a bull pm me your address,and I can get you a sale catalog on our bull sale.  Have a 5.5 frame firmware son selling the 27th,,,two full brothers are working in chubby herds

DVY Landslide is backed up by some good maternal power so it is not a surprise he can produce good females.

as a firewater owner don't think he would work in this case,,not if the cow is bigger framed

She has guts, but is a larger framed cow.  She is a Double Leader x Sonny
I am just looking for AI.  Have seen some really good charXsh crosses and this cow doesn't quite fit my breeding program but throws a great show look.

Not Turton. I have seen that bull and I think hes completely overratted. Theres a new bull out called Bud Heavy, Also an outcross bull from Canada called Sanchez. He has a new son thats coming out that is just incredible!!!!

We had luck using Yellow Jacket on a Shorthorn cross cow. Had some nice steers and have a YJ heifer that's getting ready to calve anyday that was 2010 Reserve Supreme at the Frederick Co. Fair and Reserve Crossbred at our county fair.

Because I dont think Turton is nearly as good as RapidFire. I would have suggested him but theres limited semen. Although I do know somebody who has ten straws. But turton has way to much sheath and I dont feel is is stout and clean enough to bred for clubbies. Bud Heavy also just sold for 32,500 this weekend... If you havent seen him, watch the video on rapid fire

I was kinda thinking a PB bull.  Also want something with a moderate BW.  Here is a pict of the cow with her calf on her side this year.  Just taken today.

Turton does have more sheath than rapid fire,,but is bigger hipped ,bigger boned and a half frame smaller,  but still think for a pb bullw  i would go chunky monkey,,,bud heavy is to common for a clubby deal.
