[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1811797, member: 498"] There are a number of big feedlots very close to here. There is certainly a lot of competition from the buyers. One time at the sale there was a couple of big buyers sitting right behind me. Someone bought a ring load of steers. They started joking that the buyer didn't know that he just bought a load of longhorn crosses. One of those men is the head buyer for an outfit that probably has close to 200,000 head on feed. Park out here by the freeway and you will see 50-60+ semis full of fat cattle headed to the kill plants. Those big boys know what makes them money and what doesn't. And breeding Charolais takes care of the spots. As calves they just look like a Char cross. [/QUOTE]
