[QUOTE="alexfarms, post: 1090022, member: 8677"] He's not an attractive bull. He appears weak in his hindquarters and he's gutty. He also doesn't appear masculine. BUT, I have noticed more and more of this type that is showing up as "carcass sires", through the use of the latest technologies..ie: ultrasound. I have heard many times that the rear quarters, as sought after as they are for visual appraisal, aren't a good indicator of ultrasound ribeye area. Are we breeding the hindquarters off in pursuit of high ultra-sound ribeye areas? If so, is it a good thing or bad? Is larger ribeye area our best indicator of meat yield? [/QUOTE]
