[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1161104, member: 12607"] True dat, Taurus. Most of the older cows here are ~7/16 each Angus & Simmental - with 1/8 something else - mostly Holstein, in the background. Linebred to sons of ABR Sir Arnold G809 (some would say inbred) for about 15 years - many of these cows were really closely related - before we went back to Angus - so... most of the young, productive cows in the herd are now 3/4 to 15/16 Angus. Still, the Simmental-sired calves out of both the old and younger cows have grown and performed far better than those sired by high WW Angus AI sires, and comparable to slightly better than those by red Shorthorn bulls. Moving back to breeding almost everything (black)Simmental again for at least a couple of years...with a SimAngus cleanup bull. [/QUOTE]
