[QUOTE="cbcr, post: 1209437, member: 16303"] With an AI sired bull, you can get closer to some genetics, (sired by) rather than a grandson of. Too many times, I have seen breeders that do not cut any bull calves and keep them all and sell them for breeding purposes. IMO, I don't think this represents a true breeder. They have no standards or quality control. Their thinking is, someone will buy them. Just like has been mentioned in other posts, you can take an animal that has what could be determined as a pedigree that is outstanding, but they don't breed like their pedigree. My Folks used a bull that was from natural service, he really put out some nice calves. Sold him to another farm and they really liked his calves as well. [/QUOTE]
