Charolais Breed receives accolades

Thu 30 Jul, 2015

We recently received this wonderful letter shouting accolades for the Charolais breed!

Hi, I am a 74 year young cowboy that has been one all my life. I saw your program on The American Rancher on RFD television.

I was impressed to see someone giving Charolais cattle what they deserve. I worked for a ranch by Fort Worth, TX back in the 60's and 70's when this breed was just getting started down here. I always felt that the Charolais cattle were as good as there is. I still think they are the best breed in the USA.  I have seen lots come and go, but the Charolais are tops. Keep up the good work. I now run a small stocker operation abound 200 head. I try to buy Charolais or Charloks cross.

I have the opportunity to see them all standing in grass side by side and it is so easy to see the benefit of the Charolais and their cross. They are so much more meatier, and fuller in the hips and complete body as far as that goes. It is a direct comparison.

I feel good that I have the opportunity to show my youngest son who is like me, a born cowboy, what the difference is. He has seen what the difference the Charolais breed is and can do to any other breed when crossed. He has become a true believer in the breed by side by side comparison.

Thank you for doing what you do. We need more like you to push the breed.
