Alto has some pretty nice steers they have black baldies (angus,hereford cross) and straight bred herefords i accually went to the CNPHA sale and show and they had some pretty good show steers and heifers. i showed a black baldie before and it did pretty good but there will always be better ones out there. and like said before herefords wont stand with most angus some would but they are hard to find and if you do find one it will cost you some bucks.herefords are real good if its your first year they have a controllable attitude unlike most angus. they will do good with only herefors in the class unless you fell you have a real nice one.
