Lifeline's not really recommended for use on heifers. From what I've seen he seems to work best on softer made females with plenty of flex, especially Charolais and Simmentals.

I have not had any Lifeline calves that are to big for a cow but I would be hesitant to use him on heifers. I would use him on a soft made cow. Other than that he produces stout, sound calves with plenty of bone and hair. I would be careful about disposition, they aren't all bad, but some can be. best of luck to you.

I bred him to a handful of charolais cows for an uncle.  Definately need a soft female and one that is super soggy.  They were tight gutted and pretty straight.  One of the cows was a touch tight gutted, but other two were pretty nice.  The cows were pretty quiet so disposition wasn't really problem.  I do think you better have a pretty complete kind of cow for him
