I spent the greater part of last week going through  calves:

One of my favorites was a Heatwave X Trump- if Headliner is a heatwave son then this looks like a nice avenue for Shorthorn +  ?? Sorry I dont know all of my club bulls? Hope I'm  on the right page?
I just started looking at club pedigrees recently?

HW x Shorthorn has been a fantastic cross for terminal show cattle for quite a few years.  Don't forget that HW is 1/4 Shorthorn himself.  I think with the Headliner's fantastic Angus mother, you will get a softer look, and a probably less extreme look than the HW cattle when used on Shorthorns. That is, if the Headliner is used on the right 'horns, you will probably get some heifers that could make cows.

Ive seen some nice calves bred clubby x shorthorn but how about shorthorn, let say double vision or double stuff on a cross, or simmy angus cow?

Not quite the same, but we've had great luck with Double Vision sons back on 1/2 Shorthorn/Maine cows.
