[QUOTE="mtnman, post: 141165, member: 836"] Funny you brought that up, dph. I took no offense, but I do actually cull the top heifers every year for too much weaning weight. I haven't kept a top performing heifer for about 8 years, just kept being disappointed in their maternal performance, or they got too big. I might lose something now and then, but over a 10 year average trying it, they just weren't worth it, never had one that made it past about 5-6 years old. Dad advised against it after his years of experience, but I had to try it, you know. mtnman [/QUOTE]
