Anyone seen any progeny from this bull. Considering breeding some yearling heifers to him.

I think the cattle are pretty good-had a few customers use him. He will throw extra white which might b e a concern if your a purebred breeder.

 

[WB]

Not too concerned about the white. More interested in sound functional cattle that don't need a feed wagon year around to keep them going. As old of a bull as he is I am surprised a few more people would have an opinion on him.

i think that bull will work. my roomate from college, that lives south of Sidney, has used Gameday quite a bit. great calving ease and cows are turning out to be the keepin' kind. i haven't heard anything about the white that NR mentioned.

 

[Northern Rancher]

From what they say on Advantage Cattle and from what my customers say-he leaves a bit of chrome on just about every one. The one guy had 30-40 calves so a pretty good sample. As long as it doesn't get ahead of the navel in the purebred deal doesn't matter much at all.

I went to Sitz last August and the Game Day calves were my favorite sire group at Sitz and they had a bunch of them. We also saw Game Day at an AI stud I took this picture while we were there. I can't remember the name of the stud it wasn't Genex we had already toured there but one of the owners had the bull collected at this new facility anyway we saw him and he was really thick,

I used Game Day, had calves this spring they came very ez and had good getup & go. At this point they have style and rib shape. The females should be keepers.

I don't know anything about him, but he does look good and I
like his pedigree.

Check into HARB Windy 702 or Conneally Right Answer then make your decision.

I don't know much about HARB Windy 702- (looks a little BBF than what most of our country can take) but I do know that A A R Windy Ridge 523- another grandson of Windy Ridge Commodore #10361273 has produced some great cows- and the Windy Ridges are known for their maternal qualities.....
We have a few young cows that trace back to Windy Ridge 523- with one showing herself to be a really nice 4 frame producing cow-- # 15822851-- which had the top weight weaning heifer calf last fall (as a heifer).....

I thought HARB cattle were larger type cattle. I assumed that prefix was Harmon from Montana. I learned something. tks

 

[Northern Rancher]

HARB is Jason Harrison's prefix isn't it.

HARB is Jason Harrison's prefix isn't it.

i think so.

 

[Northern Rancher]

Had quite an adventure with Jason and his cousin Danny Mydland back in the day lol.

Had quite an adventure with Jason and his cousin Danny Mydland back in the day lol.

Please elaborate. :wink:

 

[Northern Rancher]

Ohh Mydland's had sold 6 bulls for 50 grand that day so it got to be a culteral tour of billings lol.

Hay Feeder: I assume you mean Connealy Right Answer 746 reg. # 15832750. Not going to happen here. I want a proven bull with high accuracies and no genetic defects. On the Harb windy 702 I guess I don't have an opinion but give some reasons to use him and I might consider it.

 

[oldblood]

WB, there may be a backorder on Gameday, so if you are going to use him I would check now. The only thing I can say bad is he can threw some white. But they will come as EZ as any AI bull that I've used in sometime. If he is the one you like get him order. I also used his sire, some of my best cows are New Days.
