Here are new pics of my three steer choices, taken while we weighed them. Sorry about the somewhat bad pics taken from the back, they were in the scale and hard to take pics of, but I can't hardly get #77 to hold still anywhere else.

#77. He weighed 755 lbs.

#203. He weighed 710 lbs.

Funny thing is, all three steers were born on the same day!! Let me know what you think, I still have a few weeks to decide.
 
I like # 3....

Number 1 has as you said, a not good picture angle. But it is all I have to go with..At that angle, his head is disproportionatly larger than his body....I know that may not be true given his age and wiegth, but that is what stuck out. Plus, if he is hard to get to stand still, Well..I have been there done that. As a senior, my steer was used in Livestock judging and placed first. In the Conformation class, he was wiley and took off once....Same judge placed him in the middle below two steers he placed him above before..I worked hard to gentle him, but it never took and I paid..

Number two...I don't like his Backline. It goes down to the Shoulder and then rolls up like a steer that someone missed a nut on would do, but not to that extent...

Number three is a very clean and proportionate calf that is as thick as the others and just a little classier,

Just my thots and Good Luck!
