can anyone chime in on why this program is so popular? This is the lot 1 bull at the cattleman’s cut in Nebraska. just don’t see anything special about it or the expensive trademark bull they sold.

Please elaborate on the mixed reviews. I was suspicious of using him when everyone jumped on the bandwagon but haven’t heard much either way.

No not exactly the case. I’m not sure what I said to the affect of only using one bull. But the goal of the donor is indeed to use her for her females. The flushing is definitely expensive-I agree there! The literal eggs aren’t all in one basket; she’s been flushed several ways. But there will...

Thank you! I don’t understand all the positive comments around this bull. They may have good growth but structure is consistently bad.

I know. That’s why I had to ask in hopes of something to come out of the woodwork. the mention of alliance is something I’ve considered. Maybe have to try net worth and just see if I can get along with them or not. Some people have very gentle ones.

Haha thanks. Yeah they’ve about gotta be dead to know. There’s no use flushing to a new bulls if you’re just trying to create females that will stick around. Honestly I feel like it’s sad that many consider an 8 year old getting old.

Travlr, Yes and yes. was trying to figure out if I can edit original post to say that. Maybe not possible

I agree with you! I am mostly looking to mate a good donor cow who proved she should be a donor with her production in order to produce Angus females.

I would like ideas from those who have more experience: PROVEN sires to make females with as much thickness and mass as you can think of with good feet (and if that’s a tall order, at least functional feet without soundness issues). I’m looking for sires who have given you cows with longevity...

coalition’s dam is beautiful and from what I hear, very powerful. I saw a candid photo of him at stud last year and he’s full of muscle.

I see where you’re coming from. I like the females better. I don’t see enough grow in them to love them (or for my customers to love them). He doesn’t work on everything for sure.

100% and they aren’t smart enough to figure it out because they keep repeating the same mistake

No

Here we go with the photos
