So, I understand the shaft is above the heel and up. These cowboy boots are 12 inch shaft, which is the same as a pair of rain boots i have that hit about 3/4 of of my calf. however, the cowboy boots look like they are only mid calf on the model. Do you think it's just because she's taller?So, I understand the shaft is above the heel and up.

Yeh, it's because she's taller. Any boots will look shorter on a long legged tall model. Just like high shafted boots would come up really high on a shorter girl. You're smart to think of that before buying!! : }
