If she is plenty deep Hannibal is a good option for Heat Seeker. Pale Face was a hot cross on Heat seekers for quiet sometime. What are you breeding for? Terminal or maternal?

My cow was born with horns, i've heard pale throws horns..what are the odds of getting a calf with horns? I would like to stay away from horns! Thanks for all the replies. Sorry to branson for stealing your thread!

HOw is her size? Smaller framed? If you want to keep for female, Northern Improvement makes very nice clubbier type females. I really love his calves. Anchor has been hot on some of those harder made club females. Since shes a cow I would imagine a little size wouldn't hurt her.
Heat Seeker crosses well on shorthorns as well. Lots of maternal shorthorn lines that would work. Heat Seeker is registered in ASA half blood shorthorn.

Haha good one! I can't find where I saw that now..maybe I was making it up but thought I heard that a couple years ago. I've heard he works well on HS females so I might look into this mating a little more! Thanks for your input.

She is moderately framed. Northern Improvement is a good option. I have some Maximus in the tank, would they mix well? Maximus throws some nice females.  The cow has Full Flush on the bottom side.

How about Lut?  I have seen pretty darn good ones out of clubby bred cows.

I just looked up Lut..He looks like a good option..Im defiantly looking toward an angus bull endless people think Maximus would add up
