[QUOTE="El_Putzo, post: 69606, member: 1017"] I know you guys are getting tired of hearing about my dilemas and it seems as though some members feel like the board has been hijacked by hereford breeders, but I've got another question for you guys that have been in the hereford breed for a while. I have been contemplating which AI sire I will use this spring and would like to pose the following: I have the chance to use some Feltons 517 semen at a reasonable price but am not sure if I could produce better offspring with 517 himself, or one of his progeny (DR World Class, Huth stacked Deck, CMF RF Genetic Phase)? The sons and grandsons have better epds and have a little more of the "look" I'm wanting, but at the same time, I may never have a chance to use 517 again as his semen is limited. I can't make up my mind to go with the younger, better numbered bulls, or go with the legendary 517. So, what do you guys think. Keep in mind I'm trying to build a herd here and that my 4 heifers have a lot of the Feltons bloodline in them. What would you do if you had the option to use 517? TIA for you opinions. [/QUOTE]
