I believe that Red Polls belong in the commercial cattle industry. The maternal ability of the breed is well established. The challenge is how we market the Red Poll bull to commercial cattle producers so they gain the maternal influence via his daughters. That is why I am using Red Poll bulls on the Angus X Simmental cows. I can show other producers what a good Red Poll cross will accomplish.

The Red Poll will give more hybrid vigor than most other breeds because of the tight genetics within the Red Poll population. The biggest issues I see that Red Poll breeders should work on is lack of performance testing and utilizing DNA testing. A scale and DNA samples are powerful selection tools to move a herd and our breed forward. If we are to sell to the commercial producer, we must be able to provide information that the commercial producer needs and demands.

The research has proven that F1 Red Poll females are tops and we should market our bulls to produce those females. Recording F1 females will give genetic verification as well as helping to fund ARPA. I am currently awaiting the results of the DNA samples on the commercial heifers and the Red Polls so I will have a starting point on my herd.

My goal is to build to at least 50 Red Poll cows to produce bulls for commercial herds. I look forward to my next 25 plus years with Red Polls!
