[QUOTE="True Grit Farms, post: 1519943, member: 24694"] My best bull to date has been a blazed faced Simmental. He was an Onward something or another. I was a dang fool for not keeping and using him up, probably the biggest mistake that I've made in the cattle business so far. I like blazed faced cattle myself, I have over 50 of them. Using Hereford bulls to make baldies works the best for me here in the south for a few different reasons. First is the cows are more moderate in size and can scrounge. Secondly you can still get quite a few baldie calves using Angus bulls. I can see an Optimizer son in our future, he should fit our type of management. The only reason I haven't used him thus far is I don't like to breed for a terminal cross. But there's no doubt folks like to buy big cattle. Our commercial black baldie heifers out sell our black heifers, and everything out sells the red baldies. [/QUOTE]
