Shorthorn Bull

[DFSC]

Has anyone ever used the shorthorn bull- Smooth Criminal  or seen any calves out of him? If so, what does he work good on, calving ease, and what do the calves look like?

Thanks in advance!

I know Jill on here has, and I think OH breeder possibly has(maybe not, I could be wrong) I think you need to use him on a real deep bodied type of cow , other then that I havent a clue.

No, I haven't used this bull, don't really even remember anything about him.  He looks clean enough, but a little shallow for a Shorthorn bull.

We have a daughter that is now in production and doing a great job for us.  We also just had a calf born out of him the other day that we like a lot.  She is really thick but Im worried about if the calf will stay sound.  We used him on a Ladies Man x Cigar cow.  I will try to get a picture up sometime.

He's a half sib to Double Stuff I think, and you KNOW what you're getting with DS. I would use him on something with a great middle and legs, looks like his rear wheels are a little off.

i think this is kinda funny because i always thought in the pic they looked a little funny and not quite right but in a semen catalog it said something about how his hind legs were highly sought after among cattlemen or something like that so i don't really know.
