[QUOTE="Ryan, post: 692429, member: 615"] Yeah, the Salorns and also the Gel-Tex (Gelbvieh x LH) showed some promise in the late 80's to early 90's. Looked to be really good cattle, something very efficient and productive. Make some good mommas. Also there was the ALL cattle (Angus x Limi x LH), but there was just a bit of a touch of LH in that cross. The LH association did little to nothing to promote any of those crosses, so they never really realized their potential. Could've been really good for the LH breed. The direction the breed was heading in those times, they couldve become a better option for crossing than Brahmans (more moderate size, less skin/ear, considered to have a better disposition when crossed with). But, with more people moving out of cities into small places, looking for LH's with big horns, thats where the money went and the association focused there. Ryan [/QUOTE]
