I'm currently trying to decide on an AI sire for the handful of Herefords on the ranch. Selection is limited to Select Sires/Accelerated Genetics, because our local rep is the one that will be doing the AI'ing. I've mostly narrowed it down to Cuda, Small Town Kid, and Historic. I was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts or experiences with any of these sires that they would be willing to share. I included links to their respective pages below.
The goal of these matings would be to produce some Hereford bulls to use on the commercial herd that is largely Angus based. Heifers would be kept as well, if suitable for replacements. A fairly well-rounded animal is what we're shooting for, with some extra value on calving ease because the commercial herd range calves with minimal supervision/management.
