[QUOTE="dun, post: 21152, member: 34"] Strictly based on observations, it seems that the majority of the money making bulls are sold in syndication at a younger age. To go it alone in finding a top bull to invest in would be pretty tough. Unless a bull is at least partially owned by one of the major studs I don't see how private parties could market the semen succesfully enough to recoupe the investments. Even if you receive 1/2 of the retail price per unit of semen, you're only looking at generally $10.00 a unit or less. It would take a long time to get a return on a $5-10k investment. To my mind the only way to make any money would be to use your share of the semen on some top cows that you own and sell the bull calves. Even then it would be a slow return. Just my thoughts dun [/QUOTE]
