Go ahead and use him! He has muscle! His lines and angles seems to work, and scrotal development too.
I would use him, albeit as terminal because I apreciate brindles and red cattle.

 

[KNERSIE]

If I am nitpicking, his shoulders is maybe a touch straighter than the ideal, but not enough reason to foresee calving problems. The ideal photo angle would be a photo taken front directly in front when the bull has his head down grazing.

 

[ANAZAZI]

Not to bad of a bull. As mentioned previously you could use him as a terminal sire and I think if you did that he would do alright.

A black bull that is no funnel butt?

 

[rattler]

Right that bull there doesnt look to have a funnell butt. Rattler is that bull a limo? He has an awfully rounded hindquarter to be Angus.

Yes he is a Limi and he will used as a terminal sire.
KNERSIE when i an back over their i will try to get a pic of him with his head down.

Nice, solid animal. Good luck with him.

With a bull this good to be used as a Terminal breeder, you have to nit-pic! He will make some great terminal calves, but I would be cautious about breeding him to heifers which have not grown out so as to show some size at breeding time. See shoulder discussion below.

When I looked at him the first time, I thought that he had a very sloping rump, but upon very close scrutiny I decided that it was because he had a well developed 'upper' quarter, and some heavy fleshing just over his anterior tail head. Also, he appears to be standing with his hind feet slightly higher than his front feet, which would cause him to place his hind feet slightly forward, therefore making his Sacrum (the area between his hooks) appear to move up, or skyward. This is a good example of why it is not good to apply too much 'weight', or validity to a picture.

His shoulders may appear to be 'open' , or flared slightly, for the same reason as mentioned above regarding his hind feet placement. I would consider him a good bull for siring good, solid Terminal calves.

Nice bull. I wish we had him.

I wouldn't breed him to heifers but I don't breed Lim bulls to heifers at all.
