[QUOTE="dun, post: 1301595, member: 34"] The only issue I have with the report is how long ago the study was done. When I ws talking about selection for only the polled trait, I thought I made it clear that it was when the polled Hereford first got started being popular. 50 years later, or even 25-30 like the study things had pretty much stabilized and there really wasn;t much difference other then horns. The issue today is that people still remember the old times and don;t allow for the improvements that have been made. All the recall is "the way it was". Years ago we lived near 3 small charolais breeders. The wife and I kept busy pulling big(huge) knotheaded calves for the owners. Today if I told her I was going to use a charolais bull she would shoot me, even though the old lady next door has been using them for 25- years or more with no issues other then those expected in any livestock breeding enterprise..
