[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1802798, member: 14585"] For any familiar with aAa dairy analysis R - S system from the '50s and '60s - I'd say he's R-R-R Front feet standing in a bit of a hole, but I'd say foreleg appears a tad short, feet look good as they appear short, well rounded, even, uniform with level sole and good heel depth. Deep chest with enough room for good heart and lung function. Rear legs a tad too straight, but functional. Long neck with flat hocks are dairy traits, he has neither, so that is a good thing in a beef bull (unless you're seeking milk production) I expect his calves to be breed average to slightly below in stature as yearlings, with more width than average and to finish well. Bottom line: I like him enough to use him. Rule of thumb: 1 cow per month of age for first two years. ie Bull 15 months old = 15 cows covered per cycle [/QUOTE]
