[QUOTE="ArrowHBrand, post: 442057, member: 6496"] A BW/WW post has once again been transformed into low BW calvers vs high BW calvers. Ol' Rod at Diamond S Cattle Co. and I have gone around this issue before and when it's all said and done, what works for him is great and what works for me is great. Any way I find that as our cows age they tend to have heavier calves, topping out at 85-90 lbs with one or two going higher than that. I could believe that a higher BW would lead to a higher WW because the calf may have a 20-30 lb jumpstart plus a heavy calf may suck the cow down so far it's forced to depend more on graze or creep feed than a lighter calf.
