[Ryan]

I know of a Longhorn bull that was solid white, named Classic. Probably not the same one you were talking about AZ.

 

[Arnold Ziffle]

I imagine all the Hereford folks know about Domino

Manso --- American grey Brahman Supposedly a super high percentage of all American grey Brahman trace their genetics back to this Hudgins bull

Exacto --- big time Brinks Brangus (black) bull. As I recall, in the wild days a 1/3 interest in him once sold for $350,000

Neptune and Ortolan --- first Charolais bulls imported to the U.S. -- as I recall it was into deep south Texas, via Mexico, by the Thomas ranch. The Thomas ranch is still a major Charolais breeder in S. Texas

Rob Roy --- first Romagnola bull imported to the U.S.

Classic -- a white, small in body, Longhorn bull with fantastic horns. I think he was the first bull (as opposed to steer) to go over 60 inches in horn, and topped out at about 61 or 62 inches.

Was going to put in a well known older Angus like Scotch Cap, but didn't want to make it too easy for Jake.

 

[Jake]

That woulda been a little too easy AZ, I woulda been close on a lot of those bulls if I'd only have guessed....

classic could also be 'classic cotton' full brother to 'king cotton' -two al time great beefmaster bulls.~~~~~~~~~Tc
