[QUOTE="cotton1, post: 1394153, member: 14689"] As a Charolais producer I don't understand very much about CAB. I used to be under the impression that anything with black hyde and a decent grade would qualify. At one time I had Angus, SimAngus, Hereford and Gelbvieh commercial cattle. We used Black Angus or Charolais bulls on them. At my local barn I could get better money for a dank with black Hyde than a better calf( in terms of beef) of any other combination. It never made sense to me. Frame size- I don't buy the idea that more frame means more beef. It can mean more beef, but not as a rule. Seems like a high HCW frame 5 cow can cut out more edible beef than a very low scoring frame 7,8 whatever. That's the part where hair color don't matter much. Sounds like the guest speaker didn't want anybody to support the Angus guys that got away from the AAA? Seems they may have smaller frame Angus by some pictures I've seen. What is a typical frame score on Angus these days? Cotton1 [/QUOTE]
