Things are a changing, slowly, but they are changing. A friend ( Angus breeder ) told me the other day that at one of the local feeder calf sales, straight Herefords topped the sale. When that happens round here where I live, things are defiantly changing.

You hit the nail on the head there. Wish I could get a couple more angus folks around here on the crossbreeding bandwagon. I do know of 5 different herds that have put a hereford bull on there black cows this year. All very close to me. Black baldy heifers bred were sale toppers last week.

I reckon b.s. was a poor choice of words, more directly your "Holier Than Thou" attitude.
Open your eyes and ears and listen to what commercial producers are telling you, don't try to shove your innuendo down their throats. People like you do more damage to a breed than good.

No, the "poor choice" was to leap into a thread obviously aimed at Angus breeders and insult the breed. "real bull" indeed. If you don't like my "attitude", don't read my posts. Pretty simple.
Yeah, I know that you have the best interests of the Angus breed at heart. :roll: Without commercial producers, there's no demand for registered bulls of any breed.
BTW, what happened to the Pinzgauers?

He won't be the first popular bull that we've missed out on using. But you can't use them all. Back when 1407 sold for the big bucks, an auctioneer friend told us "there's going to be a lot of money made on that bull. You should use him." There was lots of money made on him, but not by us.

Never insulted the breed, I have more angus genetics than any other breed. I just think you have your head stuck so far in the sand you're out of touch with reality. But it's best for people like you to hide behind an association and try to instill others to fight your battles for you, typical.
Now put your moderator ball cap on, get yourself a tall glass of warm milk and a bowl of cookies, and type in your final response just before locking down the thread. If that's what it takes for you to feel good about yourself, that is.
I hope this won't be too big a shock to your very small, self-centered world, but I really don't care what you think about me or my attitude. But since you've been so insistent on sharing your feelings, it seems rude not to share mine about you. I think you're not an honest person. Why?
You say this:
Then claim you weren't insulting my breed.
And this:
This is really a dishonest comment. The AAA has better things to spend money on than to research a time tested trait (heterosis). They encourage straightbreeding, yes. And it works for a lot of people. Some people are hitting CAB/Prime grades at 65-80% of their calf crop. But they don't tell people not to crossbreed. Your comment is foolish and another slam at the breed.
Then there's this:
I wouldn't be a bit surprised to learn that we've been selling registered Angus bulls longer than you've even had cows. You don't do that without talking to commercial cattlemen. I read a comment long ago in the Journal and firmly believe it to be true: The market for bulls is the commercial cattle market. As it rises and falls, so will bull demand and bull prices. Perhaps this is what happened to those Pinzgauers?
Now that you've got the fight that you seemed to go out of your way for, you're begging someone to please, pretty please, shut down this thread? Pretty funny. Pitiful, but funny. I feel good enough about myself that I don't have to jump into a thread and insult other people. But, hey, that's just me. Obviously you're living in a different world.

Quietly improving their breed and waiting, like a lot of them.
Angus are the not-so-quiet majority, they deserve respect for what they have done to promote their breed and shame on other breeds for not doing as good of a job, which is why some feel they need to get in breed pi$$ing matches instead of being able to step back, admire what each breed can bring to the table, and allow everyone to have their differences.
One must also realize that everyone's table looks different.
To horrendously misquote MLK Jr.: I have a dream that my cattle will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content (and quality) of their carcasses.
Peace and love, peace and love, everybody.

The "select" comment was a joke. But then so was the "club" comment, right?
Rain was supposed to start by eight o'clock last night and we were projected to get up to 5.5 inches through tomorrow (Sunday). But it wasn't raining when I went to sleep last night; we had less than half an inch when I went out to heat check this morning. There's 1.5 inches in the gauge now @4:45 pm. I'm pleased. The grass is trying to come out and we needed the rain, but not really 5 inches in 48 hours. (And I may come to regret that comment later this year.)

Frankie, you're not worth my time.
By the way, I received the flyer in the mail you sent the other day trying to sell your angus/wagyu crosses. You must have slipped your photo in with it by mistake:

Ah, the last resort of a weak mind: lies and insults.
But as my "friend", I will give you a little warning. if those were your Pinzs I saw sell at Wichita Falls Saturday, you're NOT going to be happy with the check.
