[QUOTE="Ned Jr., post: 628307, member: 3703"] George, To say Pedretti and Jamison are "multipliers" and not breeders just because they all use Line 1 genetics would be like saying George Strait isn't a real country music singer just because he sang a few Hank Williams songs. These great breeders have hits of their own. :D While I know they share many of the same breeding phylosophys they still have many differences. I would say Pedretti's herd is full of power cows. Their cattle probably have more bone than any other Line 1 breeder and probably more milk. They've kept records to try and select for cows that come to their milk later on when the calf needs more instead of all at first when the calf can't handle it all. They try to select for cows that raise big calves and have tight little udders high in butter fat. Gino is a perfectionist at everything he does, from his Hereford cattle to his cotton and alfalfa crops, to his dairy, to the love he has for his wife and family. He's a great man that is very approachable and easy to talk to. Jamison's breed cattle to fit their environment and not just any Line 1 cattle will. Their cattle may be the most sound and structurally correct. And they have to be because they and a lot of their customers run in areas cattle have to travel long distances for food and water. I think Gordon is a genetic genius that was probably born 100 years to late. These are just a few of the differences I've seen between these two Line 1 breeders and the others. They definitely have their own type of cattle they breed for. [/QUOTE]
