[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 122158, member: 2095"] Good point! At that size, his steer calves would PROBABLY take 30-60 days longer to finish than a more moderate framed calf and MIGHT weigh 1600 lbs or more when they do so there is the likelihood that some judges are going to bump them down with the charge that they "don't fit in the box", "aren't practical cattle for a working ranch environment", or "are just too big". I don't follow the show ring circuit enough to know what phenotype is "IN" and what is not "IN" (I have seen it yo-yo too much over the years to think that I even have an eye for such things); but this bull may work with some sets of cattle in the ring; but not with other sets of cattle.
