Size Matters More Than Age At Breeding

QUESTION: I have a small herd of crossbreed cows, primarily Beefmaster and Santa Gertrudis. Our new bull is a Limousin. I have three heifers about 24 months old that have never been bred. What is a good age to breed to the Limousin? Should I expect any problems with calving?
