[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 159556, member: 9"] IMO I wouldn't buy a Longhorn (registered or not) that the owner had "de-horned" it. Horns sell in todays market. If you buy a de-horned Longhorn (taking a chance on her offspring), I wouldn't give more than 1/2 of asking price. Then, if her calves don't "horn out", you got a pretty good female to put in your freezer as ground beef. Can't imagine that anyone would even try to sell a LH for up to $2500 that had been de-horned: accidents of nature are another thing--if you had her full 4-6 generation pedigree to see what she might be able to produce.
