Here is LMG Gills Bull Dawg 8507, he is a Red Dawg son that we raised. He is a coming 2 year old. We sold 1/2 interest in him to a commercial producer for $4250 last spring. He used him for spring calving (Feb/March) and we used him on our summer calvers (May/June) We had to pull him after about 30 days as his tool had some swelling to it, but he is back to normal now and we plan on using him quite hard next summer. He is out of one of our all time best cows, who is a Buf Crk Barney daughter. I don't have THE picture yet, but I think these are pretty good. Phontypically he is very deep ribbed, easy doing, thick made, long bodied and has great feet and legs under him, and is about a 6 frame. I would like make his top line a bit better behind the shoulders, but other than that, I think he is pretty good. His EPDs are:
BW: 3
WW: 47
YW: 84
Milk: 18
TM: 41
IMF: -.09
REA: .23

Like you said, its too bad his top isn't better. On your milk epd's, what do you usually aim for?

I would like everything I have to be between 15 and 20 with 16 to 18 being optimum
 
That's about what we're shooting for, some of the animals I've seen are getting pretty high on milk. Are you going to collect him?

Ya we plan on taking him in Feb or March. We will collect some other bulls that we are selling on Feb. 2 and he will go with them.
