[QUOTE="bse, post: 869114, member: 13989"] I have both sim and angus so i like both and a cross works good. If you feel that angus will contaminate your bloodline id stick with PB sim. 1. Presicion is a good blood line lots of good cattle all tested now so you know if there carriers lots of other bloodlines with problems but i think they handled it pretty well 2 If angus makes sim/angus substandard dont do it. I have no certain parameters that i use. 3. if your selling to commercial cattle folks i think growth means the most something to push the scales. if you have some buyers retaining ownership then carcass. Know your customers 4.Just like you said some things Fastrack pulls your cow down others she pulls Fastrack down. not sure you can find a bull in any breed to fix every epd. Fastrack has a green trait trac not sure where yellow comes from im sure most all sires in these books are clean from defects. maybe you have to hope for a hefier and try and improve some more on her. but after all that i used fastrack alot in the spring on some Pb angus and some sim/angus hefiers hope he works out for me and you.
