NILE/Billings Show, Lowlines

Lowlines, I'm starting to like them more and more. TJ, I really do like the way that bull is structurally put together. Looks like he could go out and run down some cows. Congrats.

Thanks, Telos!  I actually like him better in person, than I do in the pics. His strongest trait may very well be the way he travels, as you pointed out... he covers his tracks very well & moves like a cat.  The 1/2 blood Lowline's are going to be a lot closer to what many cattle people are looking for & that was the big reason why I wanted to display him at Kansas City.  I'm just fortunate that the judge REALLY LIKED a lot of things about him, because he beat some pretty good animals who were carrying a lot more condition & had a lot more hair, but I thought that my bull looked really good out in the ring!

FWIW, over the long haul, I am a lot more excited about the potential of the percentage Lowlines than I am about the fullbloods & I plan to use this bull on F1 cows to produce F2's.
