Thanks I have the semen of both. Just did not know if Anchor was as structurely correct as Legend and I never have seen daughters of either. Do you know if they milk wellCAB said:My choice would be Anchor and I like Legend as far as that goes, but you'll find more great cows with Anchor in them so far than Legends. It may just be that Anchor is ahead of Legend time line wise. I have had some larger framed Legend calves also. You may want to look into the Anchor clone if you don't have the original Anchor semen. I know that SEK has the clone on hand. JMO

Whatever happended to G 13 Structure and some of his progeny ( Lagrand Forum, Style-maybe full sib?). QLC out of Hastings Nebraska had them and they always seemed to do really good in Denver. They would be bigger cattle though.Mill Iron A said:I would rather go BC Classic myself, sorry I know that wasn't an option but he is out of a full sister to Legend...

Hun?
WOW just saw JSAR Rodman for first time what a great looking bull and he does have great numbers do you know of any others just like him that are a bit more moderateGoWyo said:I have to agree with Glenstory on this as the CEM on both bulls is way too low. I bred to BC Lookout for 2 years and will probably stop using him due to CEM of +1 (only used 5 shots and everything has been bulls so far out of cows with good CEM). If going to run Angus based clubbies, it seems to me that the CEM on the parent stock needs to be at least 5 or 6 and 10 would be better. Looking at BC Classic 385-7 here too in lieu of Lookout due to the much higher CEM.
We used Northern Improvement on a deep ribbed Maine heifer and the heifer calf is shaping up really nice. Surprisingly short-statured and definitely stout with some bone to her. I suspect she is going to put on some frame soon though.
Has anybody used JSAR Rodman? If so, how did that turn out?

Here is a picture of Titan when he sold as Lot 30 in the 2010 JSAR Top Cut sale. When I talked with Greg Stewart about his Angus he thought more of Titan at the same age. He also mentioned that both bulls were moderate in frame. JSAR has a herd of high $W cows.GoWyo said:Glenstory - the photo of JSAR Titan makes him look short necked. I take it he has more extension in real life?
