[QUOTE="gizmom, post: 1010700, member: 13402"] I can't speak for Robert, but for me shallow heel would mean that the width or length of the heal from the foot to the ground is shorter, this tends to make the cow or bull walk back on the heel. A deep heel can also get to be to deep throwing the weigh onto the toe of the animal. Heel depth is important in selection, however it varies like the three bears what is just right for one person is shallow or deep foranother it is a very fine line. I have really liked the mating of the 107 cow to 6595 it has worked really well for us. I have one full sister working in the herd and like her a bunch, she has a bull calf on her side by Missing Link that is going to make a herd bull. I sold another full sister as a bred heifer and the new owners are really liking her. I have used Boyd New Day a bunch as well, we have flushed to him a numer of times in addition to using him regular AI. He is a bull that just does so many things right, you can't help but like him. We actually used him in a flush again this year to the A47 cow and we have several ET calves on the ground out of him and our 658 donor. So like Robert we are fans of New Day. Gizmom [/QUOTE]
