a little swaybacked for me. nice testicle size. would like to see a little more muscle/cover over top, rear end. i obviously don't know what he's been doing for the last 6 months.

I bought him from a breeder in Minnesota. He was shown at on point and did good they said. But I don't know exactly how he was being fed or what he was doing.

I was VERY impressed with this bull in person when he sold last month.  I think you will be very pleased.  Very deep bodied, thick bull.

I am pleased so far. He is out with cows now so hoping for good things next year. If he does throw good calves we might have him collected. But needs to prove himself first.

We saw him at Jr. Nationals this summer and he looked good, I will say he was plenty fat at that time. He looks now like he may have dropped a little of that extra cover.
