[QUOTE="Subsoil, post: 79050, member: 1099"] No offense Hoss (Burno) but I think you're lost in the 60s. To get the yeild grade, you've got to have some continental breeding. I agree that the Simmy/Angus is a great cow and if you're in the south, use a simmy/brangus cow. Then put what ever bull you want with her. Other options for the gulf states is a tigerstipe cow (hereford/Brahman) with a Angus/Continental cross bull. However, with this you have to deal with the occasional prolapse and little bags some of brafords are know for. Bottom line - keep the ear to less than 25% of the breeding and no more than 50% british and 50% exotic and you'll have a pretty marketable calf. Sorry longhorn breeders - you'll have to get with the corriente guys and breed roping stock. [/QUOTE]
