[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 371870, member: 2095"] I am more paranoid than most people. If I had eight flushmates to pick from I wouldn't look at the one with the 107 pound birth weight. In my mind that says automatic STEER every time. I can't defend that judgement in a recipient; but I don't buy bulls with 100++ pound actual birth weights or with sub 500 pound weaning weights. The other calves all have respectable (heck excellent) numbers, the same pedigree, and the same EPDs. Picking a good one out of that crew shouldn't be difficult. Somebody who is less cautious than me probably will buy him. [/QUOTE]
