I use Shorthorn bulls on my commercial beef cattle. I'm just getting going with the registered purebred side and should have a few bulls for sale next year, god willing and the creeks don't rise. There are a few others around here that either breed Shorthorns for seedstock or use them in their commercial beef herds. I don't know of anyone on the list using Shorthorns for dairy. As for money, I think we all hope to make a little something at the end of the day :lol:

We use Shorthorns in our beef program. I like them since they add milk and docility to the herd, and the milk adds weight if you have the growth factors there. In the end, hopefully, more weight equals more money ;-)
