[QUOTE="skcatlman, post: 367250, member: 5562"] HOSS Are you planning on AI or buying a young unproven son of a calving ease bull? I have used Gv on all my Pb. Gv and commercial heifers, I generally don't breed black i prefer the reds. Boo Boo from ABS has worked well for me he is hetero black and hetero polled but he calves easily and is proven, as well his females are make good replacements from what i have and have seen. The steers are pretty good too thick, deep with a good hip. Althought he isn't the hot new black bloodline there is something to be said for a proven consistant AI sire. As for reds i used independance on heifers for this calf crop and he has been a super heifer bull for me i have yet to touch one and they seem to be vigorous at birth, they get up and suck quickly as far as replacements i'll see what the heifers look like this fall. Hopefully this helps you. I'm not a big numbers guy the actual animal is the important thing to me i have seen and used some good producing bulls with terrible numbers as far as using a son of a bull there will be some variance.
