[QUOTE="simme, post: 1830065, member: 40418"] We probably don't agree. In what ways are simangus not reliable? Please address specific traits that are not reliable. Birth weight, calving ease, growth, fertility, carcass traits, longevity, structure, efficiency, milk, etc. Are calves sired by an angus bull bred to simmental cows more consistent (or more profitable) than calves sired by a simangus bull bred to those same simmental cows? Say the simangus bull is a son of the angus bull so that the genetics are closer. Any specific experience with simangus trait reliability compared to pure angus or pure simmental? Or just a general thing? There are a lot of simangus sired cattle. Where is the "mistake'? Are the simangus sired calves inferior in performance, profitability, or what? [/QUOTE]
