[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 205847, member: 2862"] I just bought a Butterfield Able Seaman son this year. He'll be doing some work on my commercial animals. Don't care much about numbers, so I don't know what his are, but the bull itself is put together reasonably well (I don't think it'll get used on my PB herd though, we'll see what his commercial calves look like). I seen some other Able Seamen sons out there, and while they're not just _exactly_ what I think a Saskatchewan Shorthorn needs to be, they seem to perform ok. On edit: I should mention that the line itself appears to be pretty easy keeping. The ranch I bought my bull from roughs their stock, with almost no grain, even as young stock. I think the most grain this bull has ever seen in 2 years is a couple pounds of crushed oats to get the bulls up into a pen. As a 2 year old, he's light, just under 1400 lbs, but then thats decent growth on an almost purely forage fed bull. Rod [/QUOTE]
