Have the chance of a super limousin bull, jagerbomb bred, so you can guess they type but I am put off by his legs, they seem very straight to me but the breeder says the heavy muscled bulls would tend to be like this? are you finding this?

What age and how much? And have you seen him to assess his temperament.
You are too valuable a contributor to lose.

You ask one question but it raises several more. How mobile is he? Does he move freely? What are his feet like and has he been trimmed ? Consider what your cows are like and do you want to keep his offspring and what ultimately do you want from the bull. Stores,showcattle or the finished product. What's his health rating ,temperament and do you like him enough to buy him without some doubt in in your mind. Finally, have a second look.

What's his rump/pelvic structure like? I think in the chase for overhang, it's increased the slope from hips to pins. Which in turn is effecting thurl position, leg set and mobility.

I don't like them too straight front or back. Straight back legged ones have no spring to serve cows. Wouldn't be put off by jaggerbomb though as long as your not pedigree breeding.

The rump is the attraction, Built like a brick :poop: house right from front to back and great plates on him. Just worry as he would get older there would be too much pressure on the back legs.
