Seems like I've seen that bull before. Is he yours? I absolutely love Brahmans so its going to be hard to find fault.
To answer your question I really like his lenght. I like his color. Would love to see some of his calves. Could be alittle deeper but in my opinion I would for sure use him.

Let me first say that I am not a Brahman person at all.............
He appears to be quite sound - nice angle to his hocks
Looks to have adequate bone
Decent muscling and length
Sheath angle is OK
Scrotal looks good
Bit pinched in the hearth
Could be deeper
Would like to see more masculinity through his front end
Overall pretty decent bull :cboy:

I'm just not a fan of Bos Indicus cattle. I've had little experience with them and they are docked heavily in this area. In particular I'm quite fond to Chiangus cattle; they have worked pretty well for us.
If you're looking to produce some tigerstripes, I think this guy will work pretty well for you. Not sure about the bucking bull thing - I have no idea about breeding for those. I'm sorry if I sounded a bit harsh in my previous post.....

oh your fine, you were not to harsh lol...I am not the biggest pure bred brahman fan, but i like some of their crosses. Also with the access to bucking stock that I have, I cannot pass on it. Besides I love dealing with them.

There is a huge ranch in Fl. that breeds them to Angus cows and does quite well. I think they would be classed as F-1's.

that would be a bull owned by Carl Mckenney and i have seen him in person and he is much more impressive in person

thanks, bubchub you are right that is who owns this bull.... he is now dead, but has alot of semen left.. so do you think he is a good choice...

That is a very good analysis for someone who's not a brahman person, I am impressed that you picked up on the front end part and not ripped him to pieces because of his typical brahman sheath.

he looks about right in that area . his dewlap { a little sloppy} and hump might be throwin you off. he could be deeper though......i guess his offsprings hide will be a little loose and roll on the rider, but they will just have to bite down harder with their ass cheeks :lol:

Sure would be a waste of good beef to make bucking stock out of genetics like that. But they would bring a lot more dollars.

You should also have some of his progeny DNA tested. With his genetics they should be pretty good.
