[QUOTE="VanC, post: 840225, member: 3355"] I meant that I can think of other reasons a person might want to use a different bull on heifers than he does on mature cows. It seems most of you are looking at this thing from a seedstock producers point of view. I'm looking at it more from the typical commercial producers point of view. That doesn't mean that every management style will be different between the two. Some things are universal. But some things might be different because their goals are different. Yes many, maybe most, seedstock folks run their operations much like a commercial one. I would think that would be a good idea if they want repeat business. But their main focus is still selling breeding stock while the typical commercial producer's focus is selling pounds. Jeanne's point is well taken, and I would think in most cases, even for the commercial folks, she's right. But not always, in my opinion. Either way, I've enjoyed the discussion. [/QUOTE]
