Why not promote pedigree, structure, soundness, etc....? Promoting FLUFFY COW as it is come great phenom is downright ignorant on the promoters part doesn't matter who it is!! I use lautners, Rodgers, and trauschs bulls so im not picking sides cause they each have a few great bulls in my opinion! But FLUFFY COW... REALLY???
Pedigree- boring. Structure- boring. Soundness- boring. The issue is that's what we have been trying to push all this time and it's boring, society doesn't care about any of that.
Hair (and color) *google eyes* it excites "them" and that's what we have to do no matter if its really relevant or not. We have never been able to grasp the public with anything that they thought "wow I want to learn about that"
We can't be picky about how we present the cattle industry, that's been the issue all along. We have to simply use whatever works to promote ourselves (fluffy or not we are all on the same team)
