[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1020314, member: 12607"] I dunno; I'm not a mathematician. Still not sure I'm buying the pounds of calf/acre vs. pounds of calf/cow deal. I got on that 'cows are too big' bandwagon for 2-3 years - used a 4-frame bull with less than breed average WW . No growth in the steers, and some of the resulting cows maxed out at less than 900 lbs mature weight. Took too big a hit on low weaning weights - and substantial price dock for 'em being dumpy little black things - don't think I'll be using a Lowline, or anything with a frame score below 5 again any time soon.
