[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1582422, member: 24816"] I have often thought the same about bulls like you just mentioned. I would really like to see an experiment of sorts by breeding a group of cows to Scotch Cap and Pine Drive Big Sky, then also breed to some of the “modern performance sires like Harvestor, War Party, Earnan etc. I feel like the performance and weaning weights would be similar. I’m thinking the big difference would be at maturity the older ones may not be as heavy volumed as cattle from the other time period tended to be tall and leggy with not a lot of volume. [/QUOTE]
