I'm guessing it ISN'T  hw or hs, not only are they dead, but neither could walk in a pasture!!  :

Is he yours?

 

[kfacres]

must not be too famous, or he'd be dead.. didn't think you could acheive that status until doing so..

I'm guessing naughty pine..  only because it kinda looks like his promo picture.. and i might remember something about selling a few high $$ calves..

 

[dhs]

Just a guess but is it About Time

 

[AStar]

I am Legend?

 

[cotullaguy]

Hint:  he is 3/4 maine and resides in Texas

 

[Telos]

Is he an Irish Whiskey son?

Torque?

 

[cotullaguy]

Torque is correct

looks like he would work good on soggy cows with alot of rib shape.

not a knock on you AStar, but i am about sick and tired of hearing that.  what percent of bulls won't work on a soggy cow with a lot of rib shape?  i'd like to start seeing some more bulls that are a little soggier, with some size and some rib shape.  course then, people would complain about birth weights.

Sorry Knabe but that was my way of saying he didn't have enough guts. I have not seen him in person, but I don't think he would work good on tubular type cows like alot of Maine cows. There are plenty of bulls out there that don't have to be bred to cows with big middles the bulls provide the rib.

 

[knabe]

i know AStar, i guess my point is that people mostly won't bother with tube gutted females.

I would like to add that his calves were consistent and very good.  I really liked them.  He works well on many of the same cows Heat Wave will work on but the heifers will make better cows IMO.  He had some heifers out of Meyer daughters that were very deep bodied and very nice.  I think he is a bull that works and I was very impressed.  I have no affiliation to the bull though.  Just fyi.

Show Heifer, Heatwave is NOT dead!

 

[Sly]

That damn heatwave is immortal.  I think that torque bull looks bout normal for bulls out with cows.Your cows should be the easy keepers. Go get a pot bellied angus bull and see how many show calves you can sell out of him.

 

[knabe]

i don't know how heat wave is on his feet, but it's obvious that the clones can walk because they get to service cows.  even clones of steers get to do that.

 

[Show Heifer]

Last I knew he was pushing up daisies last spring.... his clones are "alive".  But nope, ol' original is bug food. Sorry.
