[QUOTE="SPH, post: 1241593, member: 20580"] Not knowing his actual weight so throwing that out of the equation for now but I do think he has a pretty decent hind quarter to him. He's not posed the greatest in either picture so hard to critique him much more than that but he does has some nice bloodlines in his pedigree. Fall calves are such a hard thing to decide on because for most people at least where we are at they calve in the spring so you'd essentially have to market him as a 1.5 or 2 year old unless someone wants to use him as a yearling for fall calving. Plus what works in Texas might not work in the Midwest and vice versa so I'm keeping my judgment a little reserved for now because we've seen calves either really take off or stall out once they are weaned and that time between weaning and when you need to make decisions on what is a keeper and what needs to be sent to the feedlot sometimes can really surprise you how a calf develops.
