Brangus has the added benefit of heterosis, but the disadvantege of the perceived inferiority of the Brahman, justified or otherwise.

I think Angus is the here an now, but think Brangus is going to be a player in the future.

PS: I think brangus is a good choice for Arizona if that is a question.

The adavantage of the Angus plus would be pretty much as it's touted to be. You can vary the amount of Brahman influence as best suits your particular environment. Of course within reason you can do the same with Brangus and just use a non-Brahman influcenced breed to dilute it a bit.

You'd be giving up a lot of heterosis.

I would recommend a good Charolais bull on some good Red Angus or Hereford cows.

Dun's KEYWORDS were "GOOD" also.
