[QUOTE="greenwillowherefords, post: 54420, member: 587"] Texan, upon my honor, my uncle in the same town I live near has sold three Black Angus bulls in a row because he couldn't keep them in. They were servicing around 30 cows. The people I lease from used to have cattle. When they had Angus, it was the same story.I don't say that they are all like that, and I don't say that all Herefords stay home, but you wouldn't believe the sorry fences that have contained my Hereford bulls. Back to CHB versus CAB. If CHB had been a carbon copy of CAB upon start-up, what would there be to differentiate it? They limited the breeds eligible for crossing to English, and decided on a blend of Choice and Select. I have personally eaten both CAB AND CHB, and I couldn't honestly say that I could tell the difference. They were both fantastic, albeit no better than my own home-raised beef. I have personally seen a copy of the results of one group of steers sired by Bill Bennett Hereford bulls out of Washington state. There were around a hundred from one ranch that had an ADG over 5 in the feedlot. That's just one example of many. I want to clarify something. Frankie, you have the real world experience that qualifies you as a guru no matter how many posts you've made online. The same goes for Texan, CC, Ollie, Txag and a number of the members on this board. I like and respect you. But even gurus are not God, therefore they are not infallible. Please accept my apologies if I came across as mean-spirited. [/QUOTE]
