A "Hurst calf" could be a few things.  It could be the progeny of two cattle, one non castrated male aka a "bull" in addition to one female known as a "cow".  The offspring of these animals would be known as calves, or singularly a calf.  On old man Hurst's farm, this offspring would be a Hurst calf.  

Another explanation would be that it could be the aforementioned muscles on a person by the name of Hurst.

It could also be a relatively obscure cocktail originating in California.  The "Hurst Calf", popular in the 1950's, was said to be preferred by newspaper mogul and tycoon William Randolph Hurst as a delightful refreshment on the links or after a long day of work.  It's exact ingredients and recipe are largely lost to time.  In some cryptobartending circles, it is believed that the licorice spice known as anise was a primary ingredient, along with a healthy amount of rum, some white wine, and the peculiar addition of 4 tablespoons of large-curd cottage cheese.
