This herd sire issue of Santa Gertrudis USA showcases some of the breed’s sires that check all the boxes; bulls that are the right type and kind with data that backs profitable performance. Bulls that combine all the traits being sought by cattlemen nationwide and wrapped in a desirable, heat tolerant, red-hided genetic package.

PRESIDENT'S LETTER CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8

MARCH 6

Schusters and perhaps other prominent, early, polled Santa Gertrudis breeders. It is hard to believe I have been a Santa Gertrudis member and breeder for 50 years. I am proud that our breed has made steady and significant quality and unifor- mity improvements. I have seen many ranches and people come and go, but that is change. When that happens, you have an opportunity to have an impact on the breed. You see, if a 15-year-old boy can eventually become president of SGBI, you can take your herd and your involvement in any direction you want. So, think about these two questions: If not now, then when? and If not you, then who? Until next time, spread the good news about Santa Gertrudis.
