Good ones. Based on only two calves, he worked better on a fairly stout and sound Maine x Angus cow than he did on a more angular One and Only cow. Both were decent calves though. Added a little bone and definitely haired them up and added some muscle. Not a fixer but didn't take anything away. Good cow should beget a good calf.

I used him last year on a PB Angus first calf heifer that was never shown or pushed. Nice profile but not the mass and bone of my other cow. Result was a nice heifer. First picture - shown at 7 months. Already multiple class winner.
The year before I used him on a first calf Heat Wave x Meyer heifer that's wide based, big boned, powerful (and stands 57" at the hip) that won quite a bit on the weekends. Result was a pretty nice heifer. Second picture - shown at 10 months. Also see profile picture. Class winner. Breed Champion with limited showing.
Both were 75 lb. at birth. Unassisted. Quick to get started. Easy feeding with great personalities. And I mean personalities. Broad backs, big hips and lots of hair. Both free moving. I'd use him on any first calf heifer. Or any cow I wanted a good heifer out of.
