[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1836751, member: 40587"] My client in south Ga, that I bought those 150 Braford cows for, had a buddy that was trying to talk him into the Waygu thing. I don't remember exactly all the details ( I bet [USER=42313]@Mountaintown Creek Ranch[/USER] can tell us) but I think what he said was you had to be a member of the Asoociation, and use their bulls. When you took them to the sale, you had to cut a piece of ear off then send it somwhere. And they would send you a check for .50 per lb over what the top selling calves in that weight class sold for that day, Like if yours sold for $2 and the top sellers brought $2.30, you got a check for .80 per lb. Seems like you had to pay like $17.50 when you sent in the ear chunks. I assume this might be what a DNA test cost? And seems like instead of an annual Association fee, it was a monthly dues type deal. This was April of 2021 when he was telling me this, and it was 2nd hand information...him telling me what his friend said, so I may be totally wrong on this. But I am pretty sure there is some kind of incentive program available. [/QUOTE]
