[QUOTE="Ebenezer, post: 1305382, member: 24565"] Not throwing stones but with your recent bull test results do you think that studying pedigrees and matching numbers without other means contributed to the poor performance of the bulls? I guess I am wondering what % success you have if what I assume were the better bull calves from the last crop disappointed? I even looked up the two bulls left in the recent FL sale. One had a REA of 8.8 and one was FS less than 5. Will the half sib heifers build and help the herd knowing those results? I have found that just using bull via AI is not always a cure-all and can be disappointing. Most posters here, and I am assuming, are looking to make commercial cattle they raise or the breeding stock they supply to commercial operations be as profitable as possible. I know that some do not see it that way. [/QUOTE]
