[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1334248, member: 24565"] You are dead on, usual. The problem now is that the tail wags the dog. A great cow is not great due to her ribeye or marbling but for her fertility, easy care, mothering ability, great feet and legs, able to replicate herself in her daughters, be very similar to her half sib sisters, ... And I would not bet too much on the DNA because it is based on specific cattle or lines, from what I have read, and if your cattle are not tied to them tightly you can get some dud readings. If DNA is great, why do so many Angus have foot and udder issues that need to be culled? :roll: [/QUOTE]
