[QUOTE="Jessica06, post: 1026379, member: 5612"] I agree. It's pretty surprising how many seedstock breeders really have no clue about what traits are important to a commercial operation and what people look for in a bull. PHENOTYPE sells. And temperament. Most guys don't even look at papers, although they do WANT them. For someone in the business of selling commercial bulls, your competition really isn't other breeders. It's other BREEDS. Around here it's Charolais and "my best bull calf last year!" Selling to other registered breeders is truly a game, and it takes a lot of money to play. Spending $20,000 for an open heifer is not for the faint of heart. [/QUOTE]
