I know this isn't the correct place for this post but it is sort of sequentially appropriate. Anyhow, here is my wide open question:
Let say you the reader DID have an 801.5, what would be your cross/crosses selection these days and why? BF

I would cross it with the 869.5 Calai to keep the beautiful orange or with the 1104.5 Hester to try to introduce much more weight. It's all a crap shoot anyway.

801.5 X 1260.4 and the reverse,
and 801.5 X 898 and the reverse.

big and ugly by orange and lovely.

That 711 Handy look better all the time.....(898X801)
Maybe cross it with Martin's 312...

Gotta love the freedom of choice!

If I had an 801.5 I would sell it! I prefer the 869/798 Calai for breeding now.

But if I had to grow the 801.5 and cross it with something, I would cross it with a squash.

I agree with you Tom about preferring the 869.5 over the 801.5, but why would you cross it with a squash?
Just wondering....
