I like what I can see of him. Looks to have good length and decent depth. A more straight on pic would be nice, as well as a rear shot.

Here is a yearling photo of the Wild Card bull. Not sure if we have a rear view, but he has developed into a deep wide body.

That's a decent looking bull too. But not the same one unless you dyed his hind legs for the other picture ;-)

It is definetly the same bull.

He happens to have a good coating of mud or something else on his legs in mature photo. I had just let him out of the bull pen to get a picture on grass. He wasn't taken to the wash rack as was his show photo.

That bull looks good from what I see whats a good price for a decent Reg. shorthorn bull and for a heifer I never looked into the shorthorn market

What is the frame size of this bull?

What is the frame size of this bull?

O.K I am gonna make a wild guess, just for the heck of it- a 8??

 

[roanbullman]

Thanks cowgirl for posting his images.

As far as BW and calving ease. Wild Card isn't a bull for all heifers. But he isn't a cow killer as some bigger bulls are.
We used him on only four heifers. Had to light pull two of them, no hard pulls. On his cow group no pulls all unassisted.
Calves average BW 85.5#. 2# over rest of herd average.

His frame score is 6.5, Hip height at 24 mo 57.0"
So he is good size, but no 8 frame. Used him on a few 5 frame cows, very muscular and with depth in these calves as result.

Have been reading this discussion board for a good while, so decided to post a thread.

I appreciate the groups comments. Thank you.

Not crazy about the sheath. Otherwise, very impressive.
