[QUOTE="greenwillowhereford II, post: 585464, member: 7439"] I'm guessing that's a her first calf, and I'd say she's got plenty of growth as such! Functional cattle there, as we both know from experience. The Nashville bull is very impressive to look at himself, but I prefer the JMS "Kentucky," and the old Hudson bull,(who is obviously the sire of the cow by the name). The jury is still out on the new Star Lake Boulder bull she has at Flying G. One of my bull customers bought 4 bred heifers from Flying G, two of which are sisters of the cow pictured. Three of the four were bred to the new Boulder bull. Two of those have calved, as well as the one bred to "Pete" as they call Nashville. All were small calves unassisted, but the Boulder calves were only about 50 pounds, but very vigorous and blocky built. The other calf out of Nashville was about 70#. The calves on their commercial herd out of the bull they bought from me are averaging about 70#. He's sired by a brother of your cow. They are buying another bull from me now, deliberately choosing one that had a larger BW, and more growth and muscle. They want to boost the BW on the older cows. But here I am stealing the thread. :help: [/QUOTE]
