Red Bull to use on smoke cow?

[src cowman]

Hello,
I'm looking for an opinion on a red bull to breed a 1st calf heifer, who is smoke in color.  In breeding I would like to clean her up in the front end and give her more rib shape and body depth.  Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

I cant think of any red clubby heifer bulls. If I was you I'd look Shorthorn or Red Angus. Fat Tony (Red Angus) will do the rib shape and body depth, not sure about front end. Best of luck!

i dont know about the rib and depth of body, but Crimsom tide will clean up her front and he is red. good luck.

I should have worded my post a little better, she will have calved once already. I have her A.I.'d to The Answer an Angus bull.  So this will be her second calf.  She is a Milkman out of a Cigar cow. Don't know how to post a pick.

Who I would recommend also, however he is red and white...not sure whether that matters to the original poster.

Are you looking clubby terminal?,calving ease,maternal? Or something thick that has most of the qualities?There are a coupleREd  Shorthorns-BONIFIED CE:that go back to clubby and full blood maines-They are out there being used in CLUB CALF operations with alot of x-bred cows MBC RED STORM:Genetic Hoeizens or Cattle Visions-owned by Bonnel Club Calves-Indiana-theyve used him well on a bunch of x-breds-hes a hiefer bull that has produced winners (black and red) at: the Hoosier Beef Congress-Indiana State Fair,National Shorthorn JR Show etc. Theres a bull I bred: UB DMCC Top Fuel-Whos had the hell run out of him in the Iowa-Texas Draughts,since he was a yearling.and will have 65-70 progeny before hes 3. Hes CE-out of a top outcross Cumberland doner (one of the top Shorthorn cow fams) Red.and his hiefer calves looked REAL showy that I saw at thier worst,4 days into weaning on concrete:x-breds and Shorthorns. The picture is when he was 7 months oldut in the lot. O0

She is not pink? The coloring in the photo I posted is off. She is a smoke with white spots through her coat. ???

Speaking of a Shorthorn Charolais x -The most impressive female bred this way IVe ever seen was a few years ago at Louisville-Cassie Bauman from Wyoming had a white-shorthorn x charolais hiefer that was the thickest hiefer OF ANY BREED at Louisville-she could walk like an egyptian-and was an absolute MOOSE-probably wieghed 1700 or more-I loved her-allways wondered what happened to her. She should have won the plus show hands down-Ive never said this as sour grapes in all my tooo many years,but the judge was OBVIOUSLY up to political sh%^&*(%$#t O0

Sull Payday might be what your looking for in an all red bull. They are advertising him as a calving ease bull and judging by the picture he looks like he could be pretty stout. He is a new bull so I cant really say what his calves are looking like.
