This one is definitely going to sire more stature than your current bull.
He appears to me to be calving ease, marbling, more milk with nice chest extension.

Care to share info on the two?

You are joking right? All I have ever read on CT is how puny the rear ends are on Angus bulls.

I need bulls that are quick on their feet and not carrying too much "condition" in order to cover the ground I need them to cover. I like them nimble.
