[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1298991, member: 12607"] I'm with T-H; much prefer the Hooks/Gateway(GW)/Wilkinson(WS) lines. Have been stacking Hooks Shear Force 38K in our herd by using mostly sons & grandsons over the past few years. That said, it's been hard to find a good white/blaze-faced Simmental sire that pushed all - or even most - of our buttons; most that have what I like/want are solid-color; many of the blaze-faced bulls just don't get it done for me... low growth or low docility, etc. We did use an IDT grandson heavily last year, trying to put some white faces back into the mix; PRS Blazin Hot W192. We're really liking the calves we got - good growth out of steers and heifers alike - and he did throw more white than any other SM sire we've used in a while. Will have to wait a while to see how the daughters pan out as cows. Have several Long's Shear Pleasure daughters that are coming along well; some will calve in March... white-face not as prevalent with the LSP calves as it has been with the Blazin Hots. [/QUOTE]
