[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 442245, member: 13"] I think the ability to market a bull is the difference. We can sell Angus bulls. If they have good EPDs, look good, good performance data, we have no problem selling them. But half the calves born here will be heifers. And other Angus breeders just aren't interested in paying for granddaughters of well known bulls. They want [b]daughters[/b] of EXT, Foresight, 878. That's why we've resisted using our own bulls, and I think we're raising some good ones. We can use the advertising of ABS, GENEX, etc., to market our females. Plus those AI bulls get proven quicker than a bull used in someone's herd. [/QUOTE]
