[QUOTE="Hawk, post: 117399, member: 114"] My approach to making a profit in the cattle business has always been to start by controlling costs. When buying a bull, I believe that you should start by defining the characteristics you are looking for in the bull and then shop for the cheapest bull you can find that fully satisfies your requirements. I don't start with a predetermined price in mind. If I have a choice of several bulls that all seem to fit my needs, I will usually buy the less expensive one. I see no reason to buy a higher priced bull if a lower price one will meet my goals. In my simplistic way of thinking, buying the "most expensive bull you can afford" makes no more sense than buying the "most expensive car" you can afford. In both cases, a more economical model will get the job done and you may even wind up with a little money left over. [/QUOTE]
