Looking for opinions on this bul and his calves. Anyone here used him? Anyone seen any of his daughters?

I have only seen one daughter at Schu-Lars sale a couple years ago. They said she got bred on the cow and still turned into a good looking momma cow. I have shied away from 774 breeding because I have had some wild color patterns come from it. My dad said he thought 774s sire 7002 had a lot of white also, does anyone else know what OXH Domino 7002 looked like color pattern wise?

We bought a 774 bred heifer off the Schu-Lar sale and she has been a great cow for us. She was bred to Puckster 2013 when bought her, kept that daughter and another daughter from our Puckster III herd bull too. She has a really nice looking Revolution heifer this year - the pair is below just a couple days after calf born in Feb, probably the best calf in the bunch right now. Dark colored cow, definitely been a heifer maker for us. She's the only 774 daughter we have so don't have anything else to go by for color pattern but she is one of our more conservatively marked cows as are her daughters. Neither daughter of her's has crazy color patterns, like her not a whole lot of white on their legs and fairly conservative white on the neck and front too. Like I said, don't have any others to compare color patterns with so she could very well got it from the maternal side as her dam was bred by Ellis Farms

From a few breeders here in Virginia. Don't use him because they had some 100 pound plus calves sired by him. The 774 bull was a great carcass bull, but some of his daughters had coke bottled front teats.
