Final Answer was a great bull. I don't know much about Final Product. I wouldn't hesitate in using the straws.

CLOSE OUT MUST BUY ALL SEMEN. Final Product will add showring appeal to your calf crop. His progeny have been impressive, as these cattle are packed full of look and functionality. Calving ease reports have been good, with calves growing fast. Base width, sound structure, and volume are all...

I would use him on one of your favorite cows. maybe one that needs a little udder improvement. also take @Son of Butch advise

The name fooled me too. Don't know the bull, but no Final Answer in his pedigree.
Retail Product on top side and Dam goes back to old Papa Equator.
EPD says he's a solid average bull, not calving ease and protect him on feet.
I'd use him, but nothing special.
Thanks Dsth for providing the link.

Years ago we used him. Have seen some pretty good calves by him.
Yes as @Son of Butch says he is pretty solid average, and definitely not a heifer bull, but at the time we used him he was marketed as heifer acceptable.
One of the reasons I put zero dependence in EPDs of young animals,

Purchased a bull out of him. Only had him long enough to sire 2 calves. But both calves out of very solid cows were kept for breeding.
Unknown by me if it was his contribution or the dam/dams, but the calves were overall wide based and solid through a couple of generations. Nice square looking.
I would consider breeding to cows with good claws.
Really nice females, long, feminine and as mentioned above, one of the great udder fixers out there. But the feet could be shallow. Sitz Angus used him with great success, several of their top sires back a few years were sons of FP, and now some of their current ones have Final Product dams, most notably the dam of Sitz Stellar.
