[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1808602, member: 24816"] Originally the Simmentals, Charolais and other continental breeds were often bred up to purebred status using the available breeds at the time namely Angus or Hereford. So a lot of breeds like Simmental, Limousin etc already had a number of black hided individuals within their breeds. When the black hided craze hit it was an easy transition for them. I’m not saying that CAB isn’t good marketing it. It is a good marketing strategy that just happened to come about at the right time to be successful. A lot of factors came together at the conclusion of the frame race, that brought Angus back into favor with or without CAB. What I am seeing over the last several years is that while Angus are still very popular, other breeds are making inroads back into the market share that Angus bulls had previously dominated. Herefords have been very popular and Simmentals are red hot right now, which means that Angus may always have the lions share of the bull market but other breeds are beginning to cut into that. I’ve used Angus bulls for nearly 20 years but have also been incorporating Hereford and more recently Simmentals into our herd. [/QUOTE]
