[QUOTE="Herefords.US, post: 642690, member: 3972"] Much better pictures than your other picture - and it shows a much better looking bull than I thought from looking at the other picture. I like him! I'll let Knersie critique him more thoroughly. I've figured out he can see more in a minute than I can in 10! As far a the backfat issue goes, one of the reasons I have started selecting for MORE backfat is because I leased a pasture in another area a couple of years back. The stocking rate on it is twice what my home pasture is - where I can run 1 cow on 10-15 acres at home, it takes 25-30 acres to run a cow in the leased pasture. Since I've gone to a limited feed program - they only get protein tubs, mineral, pasture, and nothing else I think most of my cows could benefit from being the kind that carry a little more fat on them. So the bull I selected from Star Lake was a bull that carried a little more backfat. That is also one of the reasons I like the Holden 8203 bull, as he also has that "easy-keeping" look and carries more backfat. George [/QUOTE]
