[QUOTE="SEC, post: 176932, member: 3241"] The only reason I put Bando and Traveler down was because we have seen the 598,5175 thing go over pretty big. Yes, their pedigree starts the same. It's interesting to note that Precision 1680 is a Bando 155 out of a Traveler 23-4. A combination of landmark sires has left the industry in a hole to dig out of. 1680 has brought carcass to the table but fertility was left on the floor. It's hard to imagine being able to sell 32CM bulls for lots of money, as we have all had bulls that were pretty good and yet didn't have enough testicle. Seth had a 5175 son last year that would have been a bull that would have been worth $7500 plus had he had enough testicles. Instead a commercial guy gets to capitalize on the ways of the world. I always look for genetics that are a little off the wall, as it's something to play with and see what happens. [/QUOTE]
