[QUOTE="elkwc, post: 1316391, member: 22295"] What I have found in my recent search for heifers and cows are they are some of the words/terms used by owners to describe and also market their cattle. They are used in a variety of ways so hard to tell by the words used what there intended meaning is until you ask. The best set of heifers I viewed were called super baldies. They were out of Angus cows and top Hereford bulls. Then I've seen others use it pertaining to F1 Tiger Stripe x Black Angus. Many terms are started for one reason but then others pick them up and use them in a different way. I've seen the terms Hi blacks and ultra blacks used some in this area. Hi blacks at least in this area is used by a sale barn to denote top quality and Ultra blacks was started to denote Brangus x Angus as I understand it but I have seen both used differently. Many times I see super used with other terms like super fancy. But not always. It is like the term "Norther Genetics". Another marketing term that has many meanings. Many use whatever word they feel will catch the buyers attention. Because that is the first thing they have to do to have a chance to sell their livestock. [/QUOTE]
