Fall 2020 – Red Hill Farms Sale Information

FRAME SCORES: Frame size in cattle is an extremely important trait, and deciding on the
frame size needed in the next herd bull should be one of the major criteria for selection.
Unfortunately, frame scoring is NOT an exact science. If cattle are on halter and easy to
handle, frame scoring can be quite repeatable. However, when measuring frame score in
the chute while collecting other yearling data, the measurements are not as repeatable
as desired. We have decided to break the frame scores into thirds for the bulls this year.
For example, a 4 frame score would have been between 4.33 and 4.66 in the past while a
4 - would have been between 4.0 and 4.33 and a 4 + would have been between 4.67 and
4.99. Stated another way a 4 – is a low 4, 4 is an average 4 and 4 + is a high 4.
