[QUOTE="greenwillowherefords, post: 111934, member: 587"] Good, knowledgable post. You can't establish prepotency without judicious line-breeding. That is the ability to consistently stamp the offspring with desirable traits no matter what you breed to, and produces the type of half brothers that can be turned loose on a large herd and produce uniform calves. I also don't recommend sire/daughter, dam/son matings, but breeding an animal to her sire's half sibling or cousin etc. can with time and hard culling, produce the type of results that make the Cooper/Holden sales what they are.
