Strilchuk Shorthorns 5F has been a standout since day one. He is 3/4 shorthorn but his dam is not papered. We felt he had too much potential to be a steer. He has lot's of capacity and he really puts it all together. 5F would be perfect to use on some black females and give you some great blue roans.
