[QUOTE="elkwc, post: 1359006, member: 22295"] A person has to analyze their cowherd and then make a decision from that. Without knowing the frame size of your cowherd it is hard to give a good opinion. And area makes a difference. To get top dollar for calves here most breeders strive for a frame 5.0-6.0 cow and a 5.5 to low FS 6 bull. This produces a calf that will do well usually and sell well. Also in our environment a cow lower than a 4.5 doesn't do well unless she is light muscled. So a lot goes into making a good bull selection. [/QUOTE]
