[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 369336, member: 2095"] Ok, that helps a lot. I must have missed the part about these cows being just a few weeks off the truck. I like the #3 bull. I would like to sell all the cows and go buy a uniform set of Herf, Beefmaster, or Gert heifers and slap an ANgus bull on them; but I don't think that is good business (at this point). You bought these cows, you want to make them work,.....pick the beefmaster you like best and put him to work. Any of those four bulls will improve this set of cows. Some folks attack the beefmaster for lack of uniformity BUT in this herd that is not a problem. Your calf crop is not going to be very uniform as long as these cows are their mamas (no matter what bull or breed sires them). All you really want is an F1 generation of heifers that are better cows than their mamas and I think Beefmaster CAN do that. [/QUOTE]
