I don’t have a whole lot of experience with SAV genetics and correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think they ever get bigger than a 6 frame

I liked Counselor. Haven’t used him but decided to use Top Notch instead. Which is out of a full sister to counselor. G366 is probably most famous cow at Hoover.

Never said I was going to use him but I am interested. For me I was looking for a big framed calving ease bull, good growth , good carcass and a good scrotal epd. He checks all of that so for me he would do a lot more than add frame. I Searched his epd profile on sire evaluation only 3 other...

I agree but when trying to fix a frame issue by using a 7 frame bull there isn’t many choices out there. Plenty of bulls to fix what he lacks. In my sire evaluation searches I can’t seem to find very many bigger bulls . I know epds aren’t perfect but it would make it a heck of a lot easier if...

Yeah not ideal was more interested in his frame . I got some smaller framed cows that I wanting to fix
