I have seen the 417 bull twice along with the 175 bull twice. In the video 417 looks longer than he really is. I am sure he was with the cows and not fully fleshed when it was taken. Not to say he isn't a real good bull. Deep, thick and easy fleshing, but he might moderate lenghth.

175 is the best bull I have ever seen of any breed. Even as good as he looks in the picture, he looks better in person. I have looked at quite a few bulls that had a great picture, but when you looked in person, it was a feeling of "where is the bull that was in the picture". No picture of 175 that I have ever seen prepared me for how good he really looks. The second time I saw him simply verified what I thought the first time around.

How big is he Ned?

I'd guess him to be slightly over a six frame. His performance pedigree shows they measured him at 6.8 frame as a yearling but I don't think he'd go that now. Most everyone that's seen him puts him around a 6 frame. His performance pedigree shows 50 head of his offspring averaging 5.9 frame. I'd say he's weighing around 2,500 lbs. At eight years old he's still super sound and stays in good condition all threw breeding season. He excels in traits you don't see on paper, good feet, soundness, pigment, eye appeal, disposition, daughters. I've got to boast a little about him because I'm not sure I'll ever have another I'm this high on. Semen is available, he's in stud now getting his CSS certification. We're hoping to get some exportable to Canada also.

I sure like him. He is the kind that would do alot of ranchers good. He has longevity and must be very sound being that old, and really easy doing. I would like to see some daughters to see if they look like I think they should look. To bad he isn't solid red and polled :)

Thanks, I'm glad you like him. The cow in this video is a daughter of him.
