Join us as we dive into the groundbreaking work of Teddy Gentry, the mastermind behind the innovative South Poll cattle breed. Designed to thrive in the heat, the South Poll breed emerges from a strategic four-way cross between the resilient Hereford, Red Angus, Senepol, and Barzona cattle. This unique blend not only enhances heat tolerance but also ensures the production of high-quality meat.
Learn about the South Pole cattle's remarkable adaptability to diverse forage and environmental conditions, setting a new standard in cattle farming. Discover why the size and shape of these cows are perfectly attuned to the nutritional value of their forage, emphasizing the importance of adaptability and grazing efficiency in cow management.
Whether you're a cattle farmer, an agricultural enthusiast, or simply curious about sustainable livestock practices, this video offers valuable insights into creating a breed that's not just resilient but also a benchmark for quality meat production.

Very informative talk, thanks!!
The younger generation isn't smarter, they just haven't had the hope beaten out of them yet. I know plenty of older folks who learned to grab the whip and turn it around. Keep fighting for the average person to be treated decently and for co-ops and unions to keep democracy in the work place. Also, pay attention to who is funding the people who tell you you should be afraid or angry. They just might be trying to sell you a bridge (or a pig in a poke, as Mr. Gentry said).
Awesome. Very inspiring, inspirational and informative. An intelligent celebrity with an honest cause. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for your kind words! It's truly heartening to hear that you found the content inspiring and informative. :)
Teddy is a great cowman!!!
Visit or call your Local livestock market. (also known as the sale barn) Ask them what kind, color and grade bring the best price.
The buyers at the markets I have visited prefer black hides. Angus or Angus cross.
If you plan to sell at a sale barn, bring them what you can get the best price for.
I don’t know much about cattle but the Australias did the study and the low line which is just a smaller angus or shorter Angus. My thinking would be get some Lowline and cross with the Southpole. They would be small but wouldn’t the beef be better and still keep the smaller size. Just a thought but if Angus produces the best beef and the Southpole is better for the heat and bad forage wouldn’t that be a great cross?
Great story about the Show Cow.
