Im gonna go with the old bull Mossy Oak.  He really works on cows like her.  I'm not totally against Eye Candy but might not get a real nice fronted one out of her mated with Eye Candy but if it's a heifer she'd make a damn good cow, I bet ya.

I sure like the deja vu calves out of cows like her should add a little bit of slickin style for shows down here in texas if your breeding for a slick show and might give heatwave a try on her even how much I hate to say it he has worked well on charolais females

With her shape and design you may want to consider Hannibal. He really can make one pretty and extened. She is the right type of cow he seems to click on. He is double clean and he might make you some replacements as well as steers.

I second hannibal completely forgot about him and definately what i would use

Not to be argumentative, but I don't think you would ever get one short enough out of Hannibal on that cow for Texas steer shows.  We bought a real nice Hannibal son a few years ago that is a little more moderate than daddy and haven't gotten a steer the right size yet out of him on Charolais cows yet.  You just don't see that combination show up in sales very much either.

For Texas slick steers, either momma or daddy have to be real small I think.  I think that cow is pretty big from the picture.

Safest bet for a good steer is Heatwave.  If you don't want him (which personally I wouldn't), I'd suggest Walks Alone for a black bull or Solid Gold for a colored bull.  I've seen a bunch of good ones this year out of those two and have used Walks Alone myself.  The other bull that intrigues me for Charolais crosses is Bullicious (the bull promoted by Tony Austin).  I saw him sell at Black's a few years ago and he is a little dude.  I don't think he has ever been that heavily used, but I've like the calves I've seen.  Don't know how they grow out.

solid gold has been working more so on angus type females and walks alone has been breeding a lot like heatwave for us but has thrown more reds than smokes or creams I'm still stickin with hannibal or heatwave but i will agree to disagree here as the bulls you stated are all good.
