[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1616332, member: 24027"] I used a +9 on my heifers one year but they were also pelvic measured (Angus). Had to pull one with a leg back. Threw an average 75 lb calf, long & tall. That said, I never used him on my heifers again because it just made me nervous. And there was the unfortunate Oops Baby when he nailed a heifer prior to weaning - hard pull and a 93 lb calf. So the bulls CED is clearly a huge factor but some cows/heifers just grow big babies. I'd definitely keep a close eye on them and good luck! [/QUOTE]
