[QUOTE="TwoByrdsMG, post: 1649220, member: 37975"] I have had heifers cut out lighter too- we butchered a steer and heifer this spring. The steer was 40 lbs heavier live but had 92 lbs hanging weight on her. I'll tell you I don't usually have them done this light but when people want the beef NOW I make it happen. 1046 lb live steer, 564 lbs HW 1006 lb live heifer, 472 lbs HW Typically we target a 600-700lb HW (at least 1150 lbs live). I expect the two I am having done tomorrow will hang in the 650-710 lb range based on current live weights. Note- we also have a butcher in town that we won't use because you can't trust him to give him your own animal back. He also has an in house retail shop where he sells beef. [/QUOTE]
