1. If I had to choose I'd take angus.

2. No, night and day if you will. (S10 and one ton are both trucks but far from the same)

3. Angus are smaller frame. Charolais are larger frame and heavier on the muscle. (not going to get into temperment, handler has more to do with that than hide color.

4. It would depend on what my market was and what kinda calves I wanted.

5. In some aspects yes.

6. No. No reason to invest in high dollar cows for mix breeding. Especialy if you are going to breed down. (You are going to be feeding 1500 lb hay burners to get smokey grey calves that are going to wean lighter than white ones. If you want smokey greys get moderate frame black cows and put an easy calve'n white bull on them. Even better, one great thing about char blood is it will hide brama blood pretty good. Get some black hided brama influence brangus type cow with a moderate frame. These cows bred to a char bull will show next to no sign of brama influnece and there fore not get docked at the sale barn.)

7. 8-10 are all yes and that answers 7.

Hope this helps.

Dave
