OK, Between these 4 Angus bulls, which one would you choose?

[MYT Farms]

OK, I have a couple in mind that I like of the four, but please give me info and opinions on them. Thanks.

Legends can be kinda plain on plain cows, he has worked best for us to moderate real pretty, ND genetis, and worked awsone on a gambles hotrod female

We have had a lot of luck with missing link, and the next step bull, but i think semen is hard to come by but I may be thining of a differnt bull that lees have.

 

[VJ]

I'm not much for pb Angus cattle but the fanciest ones I've seen were sired by Lut.

 

[Jill]

I guess that would all depend on what your trying to get our of them,  I love Legend for maternal replacement, but they aren't going to be showy enough if that's what you looking for.  A little more explanation of what you're trying to raise would help.

 

[TexasHeat]

I am using a Lutton 1831 son, KDJ Aberdeen, I can not afford to put Lutton in all my cows, so that's why I went with what I think is his best new son.  I am using on plainer type cows.  The Lutton's I have seen had plenty of thickness, and are fancy.  If you need more body on some cows and still keep them showy, I would use Gamble's Hot Rod.  But we all know that Lutton is a Northern Improvment Son, so think about NI too.

 

[MYT Farms]

Well, I certainly want cattle that are maternal in their look, but I just need a little more muscle and stlye. Here, if I could raise this in about a 5 frame, +15 $EN package, I'd be all over it. Thanks Texas Heat.

You find ones that will breed those and I'd be all over it! (clapping)

Heh, no kidding!  The only reason I'm not sure about using Legend is because the 2 females we have out of him are the best phenotypically, but they weaned so-so calves and NEITHER bred back.  ??? Also, I don't want to go "clubby" Angus with bulls like NI.

 

[ploughshare]

The BC bulls will throw more than 5 frame.  For me a 5 frame is too small.  Of the OCC bulls and your goals I would have to say Next Step, then Legend.  You could relly get after it with DDA Emblazon 27C.

 

[TJ]

Mulberry.

No offense, but I think that he only wants black Angus.    I figure that if others can use that line (or a similar one), I can too.  (lol)  (clapping)

 

[MYT Farms]

TJ is right. Gotta keep 'em black.  ;D Well, there haven't been many real good comments about Matrix.  :-\ He sure looks good and the support pics look good, but I reckon that's the point. OCC Next Step was also pretty high on my list. Well, I have a good friend and mentor who's breeding to Legend and Lookout, so I'll let him find out how they do. Very similar environment, too. I think I'll breed to O C C Next Step. That +20 $EN in that stylish of package looks like a good option. Thank you all. Glenstory, my one 27C cow is alright. Still waiting to see how she matures. However, her frame is perfect. 3-4 frame is great. Eventually, I want most of my cowherd to resemble this build, only without horns and solid black. 

 

[MYT Farms]

On the other hand, both Lookout and Next Step are both out of Legend. And Legend has a plus +31 $EN.  :-\ Hum. Anyone else have fertility problems with Legend daughters?

 

[Freddy]

Any thing with a 6807 base is proably going to have fertility problems an the more times you cross to him sure proably won't help your odds .

 

[Jill]

I can't believe I'm saying this :, but have you considered a Lowine bull, I know some of them TJ has posted look like the picture you've posted without the horns and if you like the smaller frames they are all black and moderate.

 

[SEA]

Muscle, length, good fronts, and style.

OCC MISSING LINK <cowboy>, 9FB3 FULLBACK (Yes, I'm serious) (clapping), LIMESTONE DARKHORSE (the new hot one) <party>.

 

[cattlechick]

Fullback is ok on heifers? Does he have alot of grow to him?
