[QUOTE="MY, post: 101467, member: 1649"] Exactly my original point, his stock may produce best to outcross animals [i]within the breed[/i], rather than crossed to[i]another breed[/i]. The question at this point is how often is this same breeder's stock used with Angus cattle? If you say "all the time with great success", then it tends to isolate it down to one cow who seems to produce best within her breed, (or she was merely bred to one of the worst producing Angus bulls on planet earth). If they are seldom used with Angus cattle (or any other breed), and he intends to keep them bred very straight and true then he probably is the type of breeder I mentioned in my early post: I'm a fan of this type of program myself, for this type of breeder understands what I call the [i]"Art of Breeding"[/i]. It's not the right technique for everyone, few are successful with it, but those who are usually make a pretty good name for themselves, change the face of their breed, and leave behind a true legacy.
