Assessor Comments
Outstanding annual draft of Santa Gertrudis cross steers out of big frame friesan and an odd Friesian cross cow. These steers have plenty of frame and length, and shape, muscle, and bone from the Santa Gertrudis bull. These steers were very easy to handle and are ready to take on and finish for heavy domestic or export markets.
