[QUOTE="3waycross, post: 1400996, member: 6713"] Your focus isn't bad it's not .....really...focused. Pick two breeds that are complimentary to make your momma cows and then pop in another purebred bull(or a cross that compliments both breeds) on them for the 3rd(max heterosis) cross. My buddy runs a Red GV/Red Angus cross herd and just goes back on them with Homo blk Balancer bulls. He ends up with a 1/2 GV 1/2 Angus herd and all blk calves to market.He also has a small percentage of shorthorn in there way back. His calves avg right at 700lbs weaning weight and his momma cows are easy going, easyfleshing cattle. In other words a well planned and executed 2 or 3 way cross [/QUOTE]
