If your in club calf then a good angus/simmental or angus/chi would be the best cow to have and AI to great Simmental, Main, Chi, or Charlois bulls. This would be a better starting point for club calves, than buying four cows and hoping for one good calf. Getting good complete show cattle takes a lot of great cows breed to great bulls to make people spend money on a chance to win with your calves. Only having four cows does not mean you will come out with four show quality calves. If you would like to talk more about show cattle breeding let me know.<p>Matt<br>Bar M Ranch <p>
