I am just interested of there are anybody out there that is using Lowline genetics on their clubby bred females. Say for their first calf heifers or even their 2nd calvers.
LazyGLowlines said:We've got a few clubby cows we bred to lowlines, including daughters of Heat Seeker, Sin City and Heat Wave. We were very impressed when we bred our commercial cattle to lowline bulls and are breeding them back. One of the 1/2 lowline calves is already 440 lbs at only 4 months old.
Aussie said:I have seen few very good red females here which unfortunately were slaughtered. Yes sue that is a good weight and I do not want to offend anybody. As we have talked before different country different markets our target carcase weight of 250 to 300kg which is up a lot to even 5 years ago. Lowlines just run out of steam before they get there. A great light weight carcase and will achieve it quickly. the studs I have been involved with have been mainly from Victoria

I think you could use them in a percentage program - Lowlines impressed the heck out of me in Denver. They are thick, smooth and track wide from end to end.
Aussie didnt offend me-
Is bluey available or just sons ( AI) ? Pretty sure I saw a pic on Kit Pharo's site of a Bluey son?

That's really tiny in my book, a lot of our terminal sires are around 2500 at 2 years.
