[QUOTE="morancher, post: 1100206, member: 13293"] I just spent a couple hours reading a compilation of research projects on tuli, brahman crossed on angus and or hereford cows. The Texas A&M and MARC were very favorable to the tuli cross. A&M showed little to no difference on weaning wt per 100#'s of cow weight between Tuli or Brahman with the tuli cow being approx 135# lighter mature wt. The MARC projects saw similar results on weaning wt ratio's. Also on carcass data the results showed slightly less carcass data for the tuli / angus cross steers versus the straight angus steers. Data showed better data for the tuli sired steers over the straight hereford steers. The brahman sired steers were significantly below all others. It would seem the reason for utilizing tuli crossbred cows would be if you were wanting to maintain good carcass characteristics when crossing on angus. Also from other reports the disposition rating is improved with the tuli sired cows. [/QUOTE]
