[QUOTE="East Caney, post: 1076321, member: 2960"] I'm going to respectfully disagree. The problems that lie within most breeds is usually the result of some of the breeders. There are definitely breeders within the Beefmaster breed who chase growth at the expense of calving ease. Now, it's certainly been my experience that the majority of Beefmaster bulls won't cause that problem. However, those bulls do exist. There are also breeders who fail to cull hard enough for disposition and other economically relevant traits. Below, I've posted a Lasater bull (2006 model) that I posted several years ago. He's owned by Buster Beefmasters, and I took the picture this past weekend during a visit. He's a good example of the muscle that can be paired with no excessive leather. Going on cows with any Brahman influence, it may be somewhat important to watch...if the buyers down that way are still looking for reasons to discount good cattle.
