[QUOTE="faster horses, post: 1793179, member: 17524"] I agree. I've noticed that some Black Angus breeders are using Rito 707 sons, like Rito 707 of Ideal again. Those are OLD bulls. The industry had great cattle in the 70's and 80's then went to extremes (IMO). When that happened, Black Angus bulls in the stud books were bigger than the Simmentals. The factory was on the back burner, so I think now breeders are looking at making better females and that is why old bulls are being used. We used pretty much Rito line of cattle (Rito 054, Rito 0203, etc) and were always happy with them, but we were selling purebred Black Angus heifers for a premium over the steers so carcass wasn't as important.
