[QUOTE="IL Rancher, post: 360265, member: 4097"] There are some Maines out there, even out of the showier lines, that produce some pretty good x-bred calves.. we had some bulls out of Draft Pick, and out of a son called Back Draft.. They were a bit showier than I would like but they had real high preforming calves with lots of muscle.. I mean lots.. My biggest problem with them was when we tossed them on some cross bred cows that had some Chi in them we started getting some buck legs that I didn't like to well.. Couldn't complain about the pounds they would put on and grew real well when we backgrounded them.. That experience is one of the many things that have me thinking of my next bull purchase and has me leaning towards some terminal sires, maybe even, gasp, Chars. :help: [/QUOTE]
