Achieving 80-90% choice or better at harvest is accomplished by breeding cattle that fit their environment and have the genetic potential for easy fleshing along with having good confirmation and being structurally sound with natural muscling.
At OCF, along with traditional methods of selection, we have been ultra sounding for 30 years and using the information as one of our tools in selecting cattle and DNA testing going on nine years for carcass information.
In our 45 years of breeding Brangus using our Total Herd Management Program of culling around 25% of our females every year and keeping all our top heifers and cows, we are assured us that we are continually improving our genetics. OCF’s goal is to produce good carcass bulls for the commercial cattleman.
Rancher in Louisiana using Oak Creek Bulls since 1998 had 226 head harvested and 76.1% graded choice.
