[QUOTE="Square_Dancer, post: 1632110, member: 40243"] Thanks for the replies. Obviously there's no "correct" answer, but lots of good takes. Regarding registered cattle, it certainly seems Simmental has a lower barrier of entry, but there are a lot of big players in the registered Angus game in TN (e.g. Deer Valley). Little background, but my grandfather had a herd of 50~ head of registered Fleckvieh Simmental for many decades and did quite well at it. He sold the herd a few years ago because he's approaching 90 now and wants to relax and focus on his gardening, fishing, and hunting, as well has hanging the with grandkids and great grandkids, that sort of stuff. Recently I had been flirting with the idea of getting a herd of 10~ registered cows and was just kinda torn between the two breeds. I know Angus is king in the U.S. as far as numbers of registered cattle and registered operations, but also like Simmental (not necessarily Fleckvieh) for obvious nostalgic reasons. [/QUOTE]
