[QUOTE="greenwillowhereford II, post: 476588, member: 7439"] Nelson AIed to genetics that included some horned bloodlines, and if I remember correctly, were derived from his big polled Advance Domino bull. This may account for the higher growth due to the outcross. I believe that Richard Day of Roff, OK has more successfully put performance into old-time, line-bred genetics than anyone else I know of. In my opinion, he may have the best all-round cowherd in the country, about 80 head. Most of his customers are commercial breeders, and his bulls are well accepted among them. They certainly sell quickly every year. Did any of you Hereford breeders see his full page color ad in the Hereford World July issue? The bull featured was a half brother to my original herd sire, from whom I have a 2007 model heifer replacement. The bull in the ad was I believe a 5.5 frame, 2,300#. It is not uncommon for a Day cow to wean a 600# or better calf at 15 years of age. [/QUOTE]
