[QUOTE="Herefords.US, post: 554555, member: 3972"] That picture of Harland was taken at about 18 months. Harland has a LOT of length and is a chunk! Looking at Harland at the time of the Harland dispersion, I remember thinking that I would have liked to have seen more frame on him. That was my biggest criticism of him then. But that perspective was from someone that had/has a frame 7+ Keynote son in his pasture. And I have since revised that point of view. Besides being used extensively by his owners, Harland is also being used by Harrell, Feddes, Shaw, Churchill, Largent, and Colyer. When the data from ALL those calves comes in, the accuracy of Harland's growth and carcass EPDs should be pretty sound - a great choice for anyone to use in their herd to see how their own bulls compare. Northern Rancher, there are no calves by your bull registered in the American Hereford Record because he's not currently registered in the United States. From the AHA rules: I don't know why Genex hasn't already registered him in the US. Probably because no one has asked them to yet - so they could register their calves. But a DNA profile would be required. If CHA rules regarding the use of AI bulls are the same as AHA rules, then it's probable that he already has a DNA profile done in Canada. If not, I imagine one can be done through his semen. If Fraser also has his dam DNA profiled, there shouldn't be a problem. [/QUOTE]
