Thanks, but no thanks. :cboy:mtnman":2xlj5l51 said:I think I'll give your name to Dick Beck, and Tom Burke.
Tom is always looking to "help" new breeders out.

Well, I have invested well over A LOT of money. Is that a good answer? No, I have well over $100,000 invested in cattle. If you have the July Hereford World catalog, page 67, Keysha, I spent $13,000 on her. Some of my other cattle, I have spent in the range of $2000 up to $10000. Now, do you think those numbers will attract customers? Take care. :cboy:mtnman":1vjp8uej said:Hill Creek,
You seem like the kind of man that likes to let everybody know just where he stands.
How bout you tell us how much you have invested in the cow business in the last two years?
It would sure help attract some customers to your sales.
Thats the way to do it, we all have to know how much you spent before we know how much they are worth.

Actually, I just own interest in three bulls, they aren't going to be pastured with my cattle. And its 30 head I getting from Carl. Take care and thanks for worrying, because it sounds like you don't think I know what I am doing. Thanks for worrying, but I am for darn sure I know what I am doing. :cboy:mtnman":1obz2dgi said:I see tht if you own 3/4 of Olsens that would make about 20 cows from them.
That sounds like about 1 cow to breed to each bull that you own part interest in.
Well, maybe two cows for each bull.
Something seems out of balance, I think your bulls will be bored.

Montie is another breeder that I have done business with, but has no ties with me. Montie and I don't own anything together, but I think that we both like the same type of cattle somewhat. They are into more of the showing than I am. Montie is a fantasic Hereford Breeder and has done a great job managing Star Lake Cattle Ranch. So, I run my operation and Montie runs his. We run it differently. Take care. :cboy:1848":18j2eaay said:Hill Creek Farm":18j2eaay said:I am for darn sure I know what I am doing. :cboy:

I have done some flushing and I my herd bulls have been breeding my cattle. Other than that, that is all I have bred. :cboy:1848":2kpebend said:mtnman":2kpebend said:Are you breeding for popularity?

I think it's popular lines with good numbers which "may or may not" exhibit performance. Only time will tell that.....and I'm really not sure he has bred "anything" yet. Take Care :cboy:
