[QUOTE="Post Oak, post: 1461703, member: 19827"] I love Herefords,Beefmasters,and think about Charolais sometimes,but it is hard from a dollar and cents point of view to stray from straightbreeding Angus. Again for the third year in a row, my solid blacks bought .15 to .20 cents more a pound than the black brockles,baldies, and blaze faces. My reasons for straightbreeding Angus are: 1. More money at sale barn 2. A guy with a one bull like me can use the same bull on heifers and cows 3. A wide availability of Angus bulls in my area and multiple bloodlines to choose from with fair prices 4. Any heifer from a good cow can be kept for a replacement unlike terminal or maternal systems 5. Angus have the largest database as a breed I'm not trying to bash any breeds. If all calves bought the same at the sale barn, I would probably just run Horned Herefords and Beefmasters. [/QUOTE]
