[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1541250, member: 14585"] Obviously new to registered cattle as a Simmental bull does not have to be Red to register calves as Simmental. Breed the Final Answer daughter to 1SM0153 CCR Cowboy Cut from Genex. CC x FA is a mating that works well. CC x FA produced the bull TJ Cowboy Up 529B reg. 2591389 at Accelerated Genetics. I would also breed the Sagahutchee daughters to Cowboy Cut. Sagahutchee was well proven and his epds have over 90% accuracy ce 0 bottom 10% bw 4.2 bottom 5% sc -.27 bottom 5% doc -10 bottom 5% And they are below breed average for 20 of 24 traits. The top 3 traits I'd seek to improve when mating Sagahutchee daughters are: 1. Scrotal size /fertility 2. Calving Ease/bw 3. Docility Cowboy Cut would improve all 3 traits. As for the 10 registered Red Angus heifers, for their 1st calf breed them to a calving ease Angus bull. You can register their calves as red angus. When crossbreeding birth weights will be a couple pounds higher because of hybrid vigor. Breeding a calving ease Simmental bull to angus heifers will give you larger calves than you want for the 1st calf. For 2nd calf using a Simmental bull is fine, but not for the 1st calf. [/QUOTE]
