[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 801476, member: 12607"] OK, while we're doing the 'crash course' thing, what's the deal with the 'asterisk'? I'm presuming that it means that at some point back in that animal's ancestry there was a non-registered or non-Shorthorn animal - like a Maine-Anjou? If that's the case, I guess I can see the 'importance' of 'asterisk-free' for folks playing the purebred game, but for commercial producers, like myself, I could care less if there was 'something in the woodpile' 7 or 8 generations back - that influence is likely so diluted at this point that it's of little consequence - good or bad.
