[QUOTE="Dusty, post: 490677, member: 4585"] Guys, I have seen the best and worst of both worlds.... I raise charolais, i remember when i could walk under them when i was 10 years old. I also have made a living selling bulls to previous owners of OCC Angus Cattle that were frame 4-5 and customers were selling 520 lbs calves in Oct/Nov.. ... I agree we need to find that happy medium, i like the 6-6.5 level.. and cattle that can produce those huge weights and performance in a small package... I am going to through this out there... Show me the cows and prove it.. I will lead, below you will find a female, she is a NWSS class winner, frame 6.1, stout and made correct, her REA ratio was 112 and yearling wt was 1024 lbs.. Her weight as of Nov 1st 2007 days after her 2nd calf was 1385 lbs.. Her credit to performance, 1st calf Adj ww 931 lbs that calf went on to have a YW of 1597 for a WDA of 4.67 lbs his REA was 17.7 and marbling ratio 122 and his 6 of the 9 EPD's are in the Top 1% of the breed, Top it off he is a 6.4 frame. Her second calf has a Projected (to young to record) WW of 813 lbs... She has also been flushed twice and produced 32 embryos in 2 flushes.. Ok, Moderate frame, Small size, Excellent Maternal traits, strong phenotype and genotype, Strong Performance, excellent growth, and proven results in both Carcass data, maternal, and performance data....
