What do you guys think of him?

I am not going to use him I am trying to sell him.

When i bought fleck cows at The Quest Sale in 2012, i bought his mom who was carrying him at the time.
He was born 12-31-2010

From what I see when i look at him is that he could use more muscle in his rear. He has some more maturing to do.
 
could you post some more info on him?
how much does his mom weigh as a mature cow?
I like him, in fact if you had a full sister that would b great if shes got some of the characteristics I'm loooking for.

He is sired by Prostock Hickory 7053T

Here is a pic of his sire.

Mom is about 1200 lbs give or take a hundred. She is a more moderate framed fleckvieh cow. Perfect udder, great disposition.
She is a DFM MARCUS 14M daughter.

Very nice bulls, so tell how do they hold up in the heat (South Alabama), and How you think they might cross with beefmaster cows? I sure do like his muscle.
 
The guy who bred Hickory is 30the mins from me in Mt. Pleasant TX. I'm in Marietta TX.
We have summers in the high 90s.
My fleckvieh cows and this bull did fine during our extreme summer last year. They all stayed in Decent condition on hay grass and accuration.

There are fleckvieh breeders in south Texas and their cattle seem to do fine in the heat.
 
Of all the continental breeds the fleckvieh and traditional simmental handle heat the best.
