Continuing with our Legendary Cattlemen series we are again joined by Dr Bob Hough as we discuss two great American cattle breeders and exhibitors, Professor Herman Purdy and the Leachman Brothers, both of whom left an indelible mark in cattle history, in this extended episode. There is also mention of other great men such as Dr Bob Long and Dr Don Good, both renowned judges. We discuss at some length the education system and how many of these great men majored purely on cattle breeding. Some time is spent learning through the transition from 'Belt buckle' cattle to the larger framed types, a period which Bob refers to as the 'Frame Race'.
Later, Dr Bob talks about his days with Red Angus cattle and their genetic development during his time as the CEO. And finally we touch on the history of Shorthorn cattle in US on which he is writing a new book.
