[QUOTE="Brandonm22, post: 658903, member: 7645"] I COULD be wrong on this; but I suspect that more than half of the beef semen purchased (particularly that marketed through the big studs like ABS, Select Sires, Genex, etc) goes into COMMERCIAL cows. In that multibreed scenario, I would question if you would want to add the horn gene into the mix unless you just can't get an equivalent Polled Hereford bull. In the commercial world, I can get more hybrid vigour by using Hereford on Angus and Charolais type cows and vice versa than by outcrossing different Hereford lines. [/QUOTE]
