[QUOTE="Little Joe, post: 1848492, member: 39122"] There is a post on a beef facebook page I'm on where the guy says he took home 600 lbs of meat out of a 1385 lb steer and people are on there telling him how terrible that yield is, I told him despite what others said that 600 lbs take home was pretty good. Then some of the naysayers started in on me saying that if you could only get 40-45% yield from live weight that no one would be able to make money, so I showed them all my numbers, I generally get 60-65% of live weight in hanging weight and 65-70% of hanging in retail weight, they proceeded to tell me well he only got 43%. I couldn't make them understand basic math and reading skills, those are the kind of people that think they got screwed when they buy beef from you. [/QUOTE]
