[QUOTE="Ryan, post: 260581, member: 615"] Ruster, I definantly agree with you on the older genetics. As I was looking through I found a number of bulls from the 70's and 80's that i would not hesitate to use. Bulls like Quinado Fandango, I would really like to a.i. something to him. I could go on with a number of older bulls that i like. One of the big deterents for me, I guess, is that I am on the other side of the fence than you...so to speak. I am not a fan of butler breeding, and horns do not play a major role in my decision making. I prefer bigger bodied, beef type longhorns. I know all my cattle have horns, and are registered longhorns. Some people disagree on how they "should" look, and thats fine... i like em though. When marking my book Sunrise Sorillo was one i had trouble with... I went ahead and marked him down as a yes, but i would used him selectively. He does have real good conformation, and genetics that i really like. His horns did bother me some, but since i have seen calves of his that i was impressed with i went ahead and decided i would use him. I agree with you on your last statement... people are taking them from one extreme to the other.. and that gap in between the extremes is increasing a lot every generation. Ryan [/QUOTE]
