    Be careful, Gents! I was practically chased off of this "Forum" for making that EXACT same statement on here 4 years ago. GB

    Sires that where ahead of their time

    Don't forget other Shorthorn bulls that fall into that category, as well:Elbee Leader aka "Gizmo", Einmor Marquis, GFS Creole, Byland Mission, GFS Red Cloud 7026, and my predictions for the next group of "sleepers"?

    Raising Smokey Heifers

    If you're in Oklahoma, and want a TRUE maternally-oriented Angus, call Bill Corbitt, and get an Emulous bull. Anything else is just "black", IMO. This is coming from experience of my family using James Roberts' Line-bred Emulous Angus cattle. Like most people in the Ozarks, we Dairied until the...

    Are you old-enough to remember how the industry bred itself into a hole, when straight-bred Herefords were everywhere? GB

    Red Bull? Is he worth showing?

    Like many good sire-candidates, he is a "tool", not the entire "Hardware Store". I like the fact that he was slick-haired during the grazing season. Big-time advantage for those of Us in the Fescue Belt. He's only a "tick" trimmer-middled, but not gutless. He's work nicely on a lot of Angus...

    Calving Ease Shorthorn Bull?

    Nope! It makes 'em worth using to add functionality back to multiple-generations of selection for "eye appeal". Personally, I look for a "bit" of brisket, wrinkles on the side of their face, as well as......adequate wrinkling, etc of a heifer's vulva. I've seen too many heifers that look like a...

    Some random thoughts for new cattle breeders

    Did you sit down before taking the Scotch Comb out of your rear pocket?You've done gone and riled me up & out of my SP hibernation.     Wrong! Any profit-oriented producer would be wise to include a solid-red Shorthorn bull of adequate performance from a reputable breeder that treats his cows...

    Dr Bert Moore

    Yes, but DNA testing as well as making data-collection "producer-friendly"=Whole-Herd Reporting that ain't overpriced. Less office staff; More Field Services Rep's; Zero-tolerance for fraudulent data reporting, or manipulation.......Just about covers it, doesn't it? GB

    Fullblood Maines- pictures

    Mel's Semi Automatic looks modern, masculine, moderate and meaty. However, I think he needs to have bigger testicles, like the bull in your Avatar. (thumbsup)GB

    Where do you get your ag news?

    Most producers, large and small in the Ozarks go to the coffee shop, or they sit with their buddies and chew the fat on sale days at the nearest weekly feeder cattle auction. Some, if they're church-goers, stand around outside the church-house together and talk smack with the Deacons and male...

    Herd Dispersals

    What about Limestone Angus in Oklahoma, as well? Neosho Farms Red Angus in Missouri was another sad note, although that was about 6 or 7 years ago. GB
