[QUOTE="southoftheriver, post: 344493, member: 5397"] When was the shift BACK from the short stocky type herefords? 1970's perhaps????? I had always thought the "mini" herefords were from the 50's to the 60's. My grandparents had raised and bred registered polled herefords from the 50's to the late 1990's. My father started into the breeding business in the 70's and 80's until his untimely death in 1984. I do'nt remember much about the good ol' days when it was a big business around here but going through the picture album just the other day I came across a picture of a bull from 1972 and it wasn't really short short like the ones Kansas might be thinking about. The bull doesn't look quite like today's hereford bulls either. Not quite as big. Kind of in between the shorties and todays. I would say this bull was stocky, with shorter legs, but overall a very good looking bull. Any info on the herefords from the 70's??? [/QUOTE]
