Again, I do understand what you are saying and have no problem acknowledging the depth.Look how deep sided he is. There isn't any weight between the belly and the ground and soup bones have lower value than rib or flank meat. It has been proven that cattle that can eat more grow faster.
What I see, if you focus on the area between the front of the shoulders and the tail, is a steer ready for processing.
Which is the goal
But,, can you picture this guy huffin and puffin as he is trying to travel in rough country, and hollering "wait up girls".
Please bear in mind this is coming from someone that isn't real big on some of the changes that have occured in a lot
of the breeds. When things swing so far in certain lines, that they have to be referred to as "terminal" to justify their use, I
find myself thinking "hmmm". But the name of the game is to market what is in demand.
Of the pictures I have seen on CT, I have yet to to see any Canadian cattle on working ranches that I did not like. And if it takes
an odd shaped bull to make this all work, well
It is perfectly okay to ignore my babbling. After all I still dress the same way I did when I got out of high school, so obviously not big
on change.
And no, I was not a "flower child".
