[QUOTE="robert, post: 990716, member: 9171"] not if he's structurally sound he won't, my grandad always said "A gentleman takes his weight on his elbows" and the same principle is true with a bull, he should be carrying his own weight on his hind legs, if he isn't or consistently flops down on the cow he's breeding then he isn't sound enough to carry that weight and would raise questions in my mind about how functionally sound his daughters would be. We've bred heifers with mature bulls of 2400lbs no problem. [/QUOTE]
