Finally, I am starting to learn something about breeding beef cattle. I think. It is hard to learn when people are so against a certain breed, breeder, or bull that they go off on a tangent spewing out worthless comments. I bred holsteins for 40 yearsand we had the same problem. But the good breeders did not completely disregard a bull if he had some quallities they did not like. For instance if a bull sired a will to milk in his daughters, but he also sired some questionable feet and legs they would use him on a proven cow who's daughters had very correct feet and legs to take advantage of his will to milk. If 1407 sires cattle that really jump on the feed lot, surely their is merit in finding a place to use him. There is no perfect bull out there. My 2 cents.
