I realize that there are some things that I have said on here that some of you have found offensive.  I will once again say that everything that I had to say was not intended as a personal attack on anyone.  I have been monitoring this forum for quiet a long time now, and had read many posts on...

Well perhaps so, and I do know who Justintime is.  I have a lot of respect for Justintime, and I think he is one of the greatest Shorthorn Breeders around, however we still need to remember that there is always 2 sides to a story. 

I am fully aware of the TH coming from the "Deerpark Improver" bull, however TH and PHA did not come from Native or Dual Purpose Shorthorns.  Here is a question that an older breeder who does not have a computer who has been breeding Shorthorn Cattle for over 50 years wanted me to ask you...

DOC SAID:  " The answer is money. People raise what pays the bills or what makes them happy" I understand the need to make a profit, however I do not agree that it is right to sacrifice the whole entire breed for the sake of profit alone.  Take care Doc.  ;D

Justintime, Referring to the statement about the Scottish Genetics, I've been told that there is some semen left in some of the tanks here in the States by some of the older breeders who I know. As far as Dr. Nold goes, I have heard a different story from a guy who lived in North Dakota who...

Doc, You are taking all of this the wrong way.  There is no need to take any of this personal.  All we are doing is voicing our difference of opinions on the matter.  Don't we have a right to do so even if we do disagree with you and a few other breeders?  Sorry that you are bothered by what...

Yes, she is a fantastic looking female.  Another friend of mine found this picture in an old sale catalog and sent it to me.  He was really big on this cow.  I don't know how many calves she had to be honest. 

Here is a picture of the "Idea Shorthorn Cow" that I am talking about.  This cow was born back in 1979.  Her name was, "Stone Oak RD Lady Linda 6Lx" .   She was sired by a bull called, "Rodak Diablo", which was a son of "Weston Dynamo" which was a bull that was produced by "Martin Nold", who...

I wouldn't worry too much about people like that.  They are the one's who are ignorant.  I talked to someone who thought that "Angus Beef" was the way that  it was prepared.  They had no idea that is was a breed of cattle...... (lol) I heard someone say one time that they wouldn't be able to...

Doc, Thanks for the welcome, and your input on the matter.  I realize you have been around the breed for a very long time, and I understand what you are saying about cattle from certain conditions.  However I am not bashing the breed.  I am disagreeing with the direction that the breed has...

We don't have harsh conditions where I live. We have lots of grain and usually great pastures. I grain very little but because I lack a ton of pasture I still do alittle. If you want to breed for challenge harsh conditions great. But as I whole, I have show calves. It is my hobby and not my...

Outstanding- I have 5 amps of TPS Coronet in my Tank and 2 of Kinnebar Leader 9th. I would like to see the female that the young bull came out of. I really feel there is a place for the old genetics in todays world. Thank you CWA. You're welcome OH Breeder.  :) I would  like to see the...

You're exactly right..........Another thing about "Jumbo Leader" is that he has been raised in harsh low-input forage conditions out on that High Desert Land up in Montana,  and he has still been able to maintain his natural thickness without hardly any grain.  A lot of these club calf animals...

Sure thing Gary.  You're welcome.  :) Wally tells me that he will also be collecting semen on the bull. 

Here is the other picture that I have of "Jumbo Leader".  I'm hoping to get some more copies from Wally.
