I am probably going to get a Hereford bull next for my (commercial) herd. I am kinda on the fence between getting a Trask or a Line One bull next. My herd is only about 15 cows,so I need a bull that I can use on heifers and cows. I don't have the budget to transport a bull from far away, so that limits my bull purchases to the Carolinas and Georgia. My herd consist now of a mix of Hereford,Angus, and Beefmaster with a touch of Charolais. I have cows with Line One blood now,but no Trask breeding . Anybody have any opinions or advice?

Depends on what you do with your calves. If you go to the sale barn, L1 is the only way. With the Trask blood your going to get smaller framed cattle that will usually take a dock. If your target is grass fed beef or just home fed freezer beef Trask would be good. L1 will give you more performance and frame.
