[QUOTE="oakcreekfarms, post: 831301, member: 3177"] I believe that he does have weaker pasterns then would be ideal in the video, some are calling them unacceptable. I also believe that this is a result of feeding rather then breeding. I saw him as a yearling and never noticed a problem, so I would assume that the excess weight that he has carried from yearling to this point might be more of the issue. Yes he would lose weight covering a large number of cows on a large number of acres. A bull can only look that way by being fed. I have no idea how much he had from yearling to this point. I know that Kevin took him to Denver, so he probably was hand fed from yearling till the show and then he mostly went to corn silage, rough pasture, and 8lbs (guessing on this) of grain like the rest of Kevin's bulls. He raises his cattle the correct, and I would say commercial mans way. His sale bulls live on rye, silage, and some grain mixed in. I hope by my comments you would never put Kevins program in question, he has a top program. Sorry for the hard headed comment, it wasn't appropriate for the conversation. Everyone can have their opinions, and I asked about the video and I have to remind myself that is all most of you have to go off of. And once again, he is not my bull to take a picture of, I thought I made that clear. Down here that would be breeding 100 cows on 1000 acres, I don't think that I would put a two year old up to that. If that is what you do, then good on ya [/QUOTE]
