[QUOTE="WarEagle73, post: 979630, member: 19171"] As I have admitted before, I am no seasoned rancher, but I just don't believe that has to be the case. I have seen many bulls of various breeds that produced great heifers (which became excellent cows) as well as scale mashing, well built steers. I know the textbooks say a bull can't be both terminally and maternally oriented, but modern genetics have seemingly created animals that are very well rounded. I know there isn't a magical bull that can do it all, but some exist that can do alot well. And even if I were to give up a few pounds per head, being able to sell most of the heifers as replacements at the same price as the steers could make up the difference or even be more profitable.
