How much heavier is your R Gelbveih bull over the balancer?

 

[elwapo]

Dec 31 weight
#1 985
#2 915
#3 1136

 

[Wewild]

#3 don't seem to have the pot belly of the first two. I could just be the angle of the shot.

I like him best.

 

[Santas and Duhram Reds]

huh. I thought the RG bull looked heavier, after seeing the weights I looked at the picture again. Compared to the rail I guess the balancer is a larger frame? I don't know, this is why I don't like pictures, especially on black cattle.

I like them all - they should all make good bulls

Why do you ask these questions? Are you looking to buy a Gelbvieh bull? Maybe you want to add one to your dream world you live in. :lol2: :banana:

Your bulls look great. You did a SUPERB job of getting a great pic.
Pot bellie??? what are you talking about - that's GUTS & volume = NICE!

I think what Wewild is seeing is that #1 & 2 are a little more cut-up in the flank compared to # 3.

They do have capacity. I would have to pick # 3.

I have to agree with Jeanne, I'll take a pot belly like the first bull anyday!

Well done, the two reds are really good, no 1 is my first pic, though.

Jovid, I do know why you are doing it and to some extent I agree with you, but chasing Simangus on every thread is getting a little old. Be the bigger man, and move on.

Nice bulls!

Knersie, I'm curious. Has Macon appointed you a moderator of this board - or have you appointed yourself?

Just to satisfy your curiosity, I am not a moderator, nor do I have any aspirations to be one. I do however speak my mind, but try and do it in a civilised manner.

There are a LOT of us here that speak our minds! Now, as far as determining what actions or words are "civilized", I think that should be left up to the board owner and his appointed moderators to determine and act on accordingly.

Practice what you preach! Remember Caustic Burno?

 

[Herefords.US]

Yes, I confronted Caustic Burno. The confrontation doesn't bother me, as you've witnessed. But I don't believe I EVER told CB to "move on", although several of those threads were ended with those words. Only a moderator has the means to enforce that.

[TEhayandcattle]

What is a Balancer? I sure like him.

 

[BRG]

Pot bellie :lol: I call that substance, depth, and easy keeping.

I really like the first one. Great job!!!

Oh I get it now. With move on I meant get over it, not leave the boards.

Funny how the wheel turns, pity the flat side will always be at the bottom.
