Ya the black does go a little old school. We bought a bunch of yahtzee cows back in early 2000 and who really clicked on em so bout 4 yrs afo i went back to it to make some cool steers no one bite on him so i left him intact and have laughed ever sincr, but we love him. throws em thick, hair ,big bone, and tons of body. Have kept every heifer we have ever had out of him so maybe looking to sell soon.''' Hey what was Yahtsee like only seen an old picture O0
 
Thanks Mark , yeah , it’s cool to see the different types of bulls others on here use within their herds . Most of my calves this fall will be sired by the big yellow bull , ET calves will be by IGWT & BDR .

Mark he was a steer momma maker . We love loved out yatzee heatwave crosses. Great mommas and could out milk just bout anything.
 
If you're referring to Footprint, I'm more than ecstatic with him.  His video really sold me on him.  Pretty much faultless.  Might be some good calves out of my Diamond Zulu daughters. 
 
Well Mark,  I would NEVER use a frame 4 bull.  Never have, never will.  That creates frame 3 females after the original good genetics have been diluted.  The average cow in my herd is a mid six frame score.  The smallest cow I have is a frame score 5.6 and she won't have another calf here.  The three year old bull out with the younger cows is a frame score 7.1 and the old Pioneer bull is a frame score 8.5.  Not what many of you are looking for and that is fine with me!  These cattle suit my preference and that is what I will continue to breed.  And I seldom pull a calf.

Send the good mid 4 frame bulls my way. Both my senior herdsires are mid 4s:  Saskvalley Editor and Leveldale Genesis.  Much taller and they’ll be a bag of bones around here.

Duncraggan, JJC Wild Side was no bigger than a frame score 4.  His daughters may average frame 5 due to the growth genetics of their dams.
Good size! Like his slick summer hair coat as well!

That would make him an ideal candidate for IDALEE-Frame 4-easy keeping and calving-total outcross-AND THICK O0
Probably for me too!

Your roan bull has a lot of utility.  There are a bunch of good people and high quality cattle behind him--that's a good combo.

Thank you, I think he's going to be a good option for cleaning up post-AI/ET without giving up value in the natural-service calves
 
Roan bull has weak back with faulty thurl position.

I wasn't going to mention it but he does look like he could use a pusher axle in the middle.  I don't know how important that is dollar wise or if it is just my preference but that tail head points pretty high too.
