[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1803900, member: 24816"] That’s where we were a few years back. Found out the hard way that contemporary modern Angus ain’t the cows they used to be. Went to commercial Herefords and Angus bulls, eventually started using Hereford bulls to get our own Hereford replacements. I will say though that our small venture with a few registered Hereford females wasn’t much more impressive than the venture into registered Angus as far as fertility and longevity, but a few descendants and the commercials have been some real good cows as have a few of the Angus. Like has been said we never have gotten a direct benefit from the Angus genetics Our latest direction is with Simmental bulls to try to get more growth on the calves from the Angus and Hereford cows [/QUOTE]
