[QUOTE="cmf1, post: 833224, member: 6681"] waihou, I really like your stock as I have mentioned before. My bull has not turned out like I thought he might when I got him. On my cows he has done a good job, but there's always room for improvement and this will be his last go round here. I'm actually fairly happy with the calves from him and he's not leaving because he hasn't done a good job. In my mind he's out performing himself. In fact his calves have made it possible for me to upgrade. I'm going to all registered stock now of MGs and Brahman. He did his job well and sold me on the breed. I want to keep the bull at frame 4-5 and wide as I can going to lighter color also. Our heat is hot down here and though he doesn't appear to suffer from it, just seems like it'd be easier on a silver. As for the hook/pin angle I went back to Dr. Bonsma's article on how to select functional cows and confirmed in my mind that flat line is what he termed "sub-fertile" or less functional, so I'm not as concerned with that aspect of the bull. I might be PMing you about bloodlines available to me here for some input if that's okay. Thanks for the input today. [/QUOTE]
