    No no no all wrong ..its "if you want wild cattle that grade poorly and perform badly ,with razorbacks and narrow ends -use Kilbride golfer"
    "His progeny have the highest mortality rates, he has morecases with calving difficulty and has a long gestation to suit"
    They want to sell you straws ...you have to look through the ****e

    For a laugh I've often looked back on old ai books where test bulls were advertised and are proven now. The ****e they'd say about this bull or that bull being from a 'Strong Maternal Line', different story for a lot of those bulls today once their daughters calved!
