[QUOTE="LongLopeSlowHorse, post: 1384185, member: 24832"] It looks nicely done on the animal. But--almost a 'hair brand'--I like them 'buckskin' colored for best brands. The closed lower lazy p--the leg on that 'R'--that whole area can give your trouble by 'blotching' to me, the brand is too 'busy' and too 'congested'--and also kinda complicated. we run in big country, old outfits, brands are important. Simple and no closed characters are best. Elaborate are mostly something someone drew up cause they thought it'd look cute on their 'townie gate' mine is 7 and bar. another local is a T- another is an L F--but the 'LF ' brand is formed just using the F and putting bottem portion of L on the F--backwards. North of here is the 4T--(the 4 is put on kinda square--open on top--you want to always avoid tight angles--and closed symbols, if possible----commonly refferred to as the "forty". See how simple, easy to read and remember these are? And that all can be put on with just a bar? I'm not attacking your brand. I will bet you---in yrs to come, if you use it much-----you'll say 'that guy makes more sense than I thought he did...." [/QUOTE]
