[QUOTE="hornedfrogbbq, post: 1517359, member: 32773"] As our 79 year old cowboy has said, "he is long as a well rope." We run moderate framed cattle...if you define that as 1200-1300lb cows. We are not running tall or super large animals. We basically live in a desert in central Texas so we can't really carry a larger framed animal in our environment very efficiently. Basically think back of the tail to the nose...long. The Rampage calves are not as long...but thicker and maybe a tad deeper although that may just be where we are in their development. We used Hickok because on the Connealy influence from Consensus and then his son 7229. It still amazes me how many of Jerry and Sharon's cows are out of Consensus...to this day. One other suggestion: Impression has been one heck of a cow maker for over 10 years. He died this spring but ABS still has his semen. His daughters in our herd are pretty impressive. We still have 100 straws of him i think and we'll circle back around and use him again on some other sires' daughters. [/QUOTE]
