[QUOTE="Ryan, post: 158700, member: 615"] I just wanted your opinion on your comment. I have noticed the characteristics you stated, except double muscling, in the show ring. However, I feel that these animals have been produced through years and years of selection and hard work by the breeders. I am not saying that crossbreeding hasn't been done. I do not feel that top end cattle are crossbreds though. I know most of the breeders who exhibit the shorter-horned higher-muscled animals and know them to be honest (although some have known to fudge birthdates), hard-working breeders who strive to produce the highest quality [b]cattle [/b]they can. I am sorry if my statements are harsh or something like that. I just tend to take it personally when I hear of people say that the Texas Longhorns I help raise, or ones similar to them, are not real or pure or 100% or whatever Longhorns, b/c they have exceptional bodies and not the extreme horns that people normally expect or think of.
