[QUOTE="KNERSIE, post: 791961, member: 4353"] All three are functional heifers as far as I can see in the pics, all three has areas that can be improved on for the conventional showring as well. The first heifer is very well balanced although a touch short, has the depth and capacity I like, very sound, but she could do with a touch more neck extension. The lack of extension through the front and the fact that she is just a touch shortcoupled would probably prevent her from a first place if the competition is strong. The second heifer is beautifully balanced, very feminine, has the neck extension to have showring character, beautiful hip with a very good wedge, her only slight flaw is that she could have had a touch more set to her rear legs. Out of the three she'll place first if I was the judge. The third heifer has volume and muscle, but she is too short coupled and has excessive bone. She has very good neck extension, but isn't shown well because her head is too high and the neck shoulder attachment is too coarse. The hair is hiding it, but I don't think her hip structure is completely sound, but that is picking fleas. She is the furthest from real world cattle of the three. I'll place them 2, 1, 3 in the showring and pretty much the same as replacements although 3 more than likely wouldn't have made my cut for the registered herd. [/QUOTE]
