I agree with CB, if you can find some good Herefords and put a brangus bull on then it would be hard to beat. The deal with the longhorns is you can buy them cheaper, here I can buy good heavy bred longhorns for about 1000$ and sell there first calf for more than that. But we have a good market around here for good cattle, a little chrome won't kill you as long as they are good.
With him being in Texas it better be black with a touch of Brimmer.
No sense giving money away neighbor I hauled a SH and Brangus steer for last week
same size, the Brangus brought a dollar more a pound and the SH was a better calf.
That is the reason my neighbor went to using my Angus bull this cycle the chrome on the SH
was killing him. On a 4wt calf that is 400 froghides in the billfold. That is what they were was
4 wts I watched them go across the scale wasn't twenty pounds difference in the calves.
