Convincer
What are people's impressions of Convincer?
We are only milking one, but I am very impressed with her stature, openness of rib, udder and feet and legs. He has a pretty good type proof in the UK and he appears to have done ok in Canada.

Re: Convincer
Ain't it strange how things work out - ive just praised Storm while Will was less than impressed, now im gonna slate convincer while Will is quite happy with them. Horses for courses eh??
Our Convincers lack rear udder and most surprising for a bull promoted as a milk bull they lack just that - milk!!! not looking forward to the rest of them calving in!!

Re: Convincer
We have two full sisters by Convincer out of a Vg Duster in the states they both gave 11,000kgs in 305days one was 82 the other 85. The 85 would have went higher had i put her up again, she calved in 11.5 months has a Sinatra going to Genus <if it passes IBR + CVM> she will be flushed to Lancelot in the new year i reckon she will make an EX cow the sister is not as tall and a little more set to her legs but will go Vg when she calves, they are very pleasing but are out of an excellent family so how much the bull has had to do i am not sure!
Milking 70 cows 10,200kg 305days 3.85 3.15 AV pts 86.2
Main cow families Roxy,Dixie,Edda
