great looking calf, i would have thought by his 6th month old calf pic that he was to straight in his hind leg set. He looks pretty sound in his recent pic on those hind legs. thanks for sharing. have u showed him lately?

let us know how he does. He's hard to find fault with standing still. Soft made, easy keeping type he appears to be. Like his depth of body also. Good luck

I like him, really funtional looking kind of steer there, that looks to be plenty powerful and full of product.  For those that say show ring steers wouldnt make it in the feedlot, this steer should show very well for you, and from the looks of him I bet many feedlots would love to be full of calves just like him.  Where are you showing this weekend.

I believe you sent me a picture of this calf when I was looking to buy for my son this past spring.  I loved the look of him, but was concerned about those back legs.  They looked really straight in the earlier pic.  Our calf last year had structure issues with his front legs, which left us gun shy.  Sure wish we would have taken a chance on him!  Good luck with him!!

wouldn't expect the 6 month old picture to turn into that.  He looks great, naturaly thick, stout, and soft middled.  Looks like a winning combo to me! Congrats!
