[QUOTE="paul swisher, post: 362532, member: 49"] We have tested both Bovigen GeneSTAR and Igenity TenderGENE. Our initial testing a few years ago when 2 Stars was the highest, included 10 of the original Austrian imported bulls. 9 of the 10 were 2 Stars I doubt any breed could do that. As a breed we have averaged 84.4% two Stars or better. The consumer has been brain washed regarding marbling, that is why they are using it on select/standard because there is no visual IMF, even though it may be tender. We sold some bulls to a branded beef company that guarantees tenderness but he uses Brazier Shear Testing on all carcasses but that is time consuming. That is why this optical system is so neat [/QUOTE]
