From viewing all the videoes and  photos, he is by far my favorite clubby bull. Who has seen him in the flesh?

I saw his mother in person and she is a thick one. Scott says the 3D cows flat out produce, even if they don't look the best. Lautner has tried to buy Smilin Bob w/o any luck.

When you think about simple math he came out in April. He really hasent been promoted much and he still has sold over 3000 units of semen. I am sure being a full sib to " the best baldy in north America" helps but I think that he is going to be a huge hit mainely for raising club calf mommas.

Don't leave out boardwalk. From matt lautners blog he seems to be doing pretty well with semen sales.

I really like the looks of Simple Math and how he's bred, but we dont use unproven bulls, I almost did last year ( a certain ILL red shorthorn) ;) OFS , but we ai'd her first and she stuck, so it didnt happen that year.

Simple Math was in the May issue of the Show Circuit which was on line but now the June/July issue is up and the May issue hasn't made it to the "past issues page yet. It will in a few days I assume. If you do a search here for Simple Math you may be able to find a pic posted on a previous thread.

saw Simple Math last week at Genex in Mitchell SD.
he is sound as a cat after being at Genex for probably a month already; picked up my 10 units of him; talked to the staff, they said he is still "iffy" as to collecting, not getting ahead on freezing compared with demand but he had froze that morning.

have a picture or two also, but I would have to have someone help me post.

I think that it was on Matt's web-site that they bought out one of the partners making Broadwalk cost 100K.
I'm personally more interested in which bull from last year is getting the job done. As far as crowning a Rookie of the year B4 some are even freezing good quality semen is somewhat speculative @ best.
