WOW!!! Them calves would fit right in here. FANCY FANCY.

Are they yours PistolPete?

 

[cypressfarms]

I like the 2nd one the best.

They all know how to stand perfectly. You been getting pointers from cert?

 

[PistolPete]

not mine but could be if all goes well.

 

[Ryan]

love the color on 1 & 4... but i like the white one the best

 

[warpaint]

No. 3 hands down! ;-)

 

[certherfbeef]

Pete, Is the bottom one a moody blues?

They all look to have some "modern" shorthorn influence.

Which sale are they in?

 

[PistolPete]

they all sold in midcontinent farms sale last fall but i know the guys who bought them.

In order, I'd say #2 the white one, then #1 the blue, #4, and #3 because she doesn't have nearly as much depth from heart girth to hind end.

I'd take any one of them though. Darn good heifers. And...hair is good.

Love the color on 1,3,4. Especially 1 & 4. All look nice. 8)

I agree with Dun. To much hair. Good fitting job though. If you can see through the hair, might be able to tell if any have any meat and are worth a dang. Clippers and hair spray can make long haired catttle look real good.

 

[purecountry]

They don't have that much hair that you can't see their depth and flesh. If you can't, well, ok. I'll agree that power-fitting can really be overdone at times.

 

[Tod Dague]

I like the top two the best.

 

[MikeC]

The white on definitely has more depth. My favorite phenotypical trait.

Nice heifers there shooter! I would say the top and bottom ones are on there way to being part of the new white Angus Assoc. which RGV eludes too.. :lol: (see the "Black Color" thread)

 

[la4angus]

From what I can see the white one is easily the best.

 

[Texas Ranch Man]

#2 The White One!

 

[AAOK]

If you're Showing in a Commercial class, take #2 first, #1 second. Don't expect #1 to do too well as a cow. #2 might work OK.

If you are looking for Cows; particularly Show Calf producers, take #3 first, followed by #4. Don't expect either of them to do too well showing in a Commercial Breed Class.

Pretty easy to analyze from such good pictures. A good eye should be able to see beyond the grooming and fitting.
