My way of thinking may be wrong but isn't the point to select genetics to improve the cowherd not just to replicate what we already have. Cloned cattle will offer uniformity and expected performance, but it will not offer improvement on what you currently have available. I would much rather...

What kind of uniformity can be expected from calves of a brangus cow herd bred to black simmental or simangus bull. Pictures would be great if anyone has them.

I like the idea of breeding a calf that is 50% black angus, 25% simmental, and 25% brahman. Should have low BW, higher than average WW. Also will add heat tolerance and and hardiness to your herd through the brahman influence. At least from my research that looks like what you would get.

Does anyone here have any experience with crossing a F1 Brahman x simmental cow bred to 100% black angus bull? I think the traits could cross for a good southeast beef producer.
