[QUOTE="Dusty, post: 290751, member: 4585"] Hey Beniot Kansas guy.... Did you realized in the last NCBA top 20 list of commerical cow/calf producers, 15 of the top 17 herds of the largest breeders in the nation used charolais and angus in the same program.. When noted Lee Leachman notes that the genetic potiental of charolais on the industry is unlimited.. P>S> did you notice Leachman is raising purebred charolais now!! Also Camp Cooley, Finks, R&K Angus, and LT ranch in south dakota just to name a few breeders!! Look for a bull with a moderate BW between 75-85 (moderate for charolais) a decient charolais bull should weight over 625 for a 205 day weight... If he dosen't he should be cut.. Charolais are known for growth, they should grow. and look for a TM EPD over 10, if you keep replacement heifers back.. Also just like angus look for cattle sired by proven bulls. Or a proven family. Also the YW should be over 1250 some good bulls have been arround this but most are over this weight. I am a strong believer that a bull must have a 38 sctrl at 365 days... Those are just a few ideas to base a opinion on.. [/QUOTE]
