[QUOTE="warpaint, post: 198319, member: 2793"] Brandonm, I know the two dozen or so posts you are talking about. A beefier longhorn is ok. How you go about getting it is where the criticisms come in. There are some breeders out there that cross their animals with a beef sire or cow and try to pass them off as purebred just for the sake of getting beefier calves. I also would like to raise bigger and better, but not at the risk of diluting the breed. The process of using genetics to gain this end is slow, but that is the route that I am taking. I will not sacrifice horn or hide to gain this end. [/QUOTE]
