[QUOTE="elkwc, post: 1825196, member: 22295"] Have seen a lot of their genetics. Have a little in the background of a few. From what I’ve seen and those I’ve talked too short frame size and low growth are 2 areas of concern and reasons they have either quit using them or use them on a limited basis. Have been told there are a few outliers that have more frame size and growth. Have a neighbor who bought one from their sale. So have seen some direct from Ohlde’s. Many have been breeders who use their genetics. I only know of one breeder in this region still using their genetics up close. Some like a little in the background. What works for one doesn’t for another. They are good cattle if they fit your needs. Have heard they work well if finishing on grass. Not as well if feeding in a feedlot. I have to raise what my buyers desire and need pounds. So we have only sampled their genetics but they didn’t work for us. [/QUOTE]
