[QUOTE="Herefords.US, post: 310604, member: 3972"] I'm curious who those "many" breeders are, since only a handful Anxiety 4th breeders existed past the early 80s. Most of the breeders started using outcross bulls to keep up with the trend, which was what led to the association becoming irrelevant. Lack of support. But you're right -there aren't many straightbred Anxiety 4th cattle left! The only ones I'd be almost 100% sure about now would be Jim Lents cattle. Leland Wallace had some that would certify and some that would not. I know about the oversight as well. There were/are a very few breeders that have some certificates to cattle that shouldn't qualify - but they all trace back to a single Rancho Lilac bred bull, if what I've been told by the purists is correct. A mistake was made. Knowing the integrity of the people involved, I would bet on it being an "honest" one. And truthfully, at this point, I'm not sure it is even relevant. It's about the same as arguing which pronunciation of a Latin word is correct now. George [/QUOTE]
