[QUOTE="smartin0022, post: 1675771, member: 39232"] Bottom line for me is I buy the best bull my pocket book can afford. I've sold 3 in the last three years that I paid $1900 and $2000 and $2500 dollars for. The $1900 bull sired 37 calves all decent just not what I wanted. I owned the $2000 bull for 45 days he sired 6 calves out of 6 first calf heifers and 3 were stellar. He was prolly the best of the 3. I sold him to a neighbor where he has sired over 50 more calves and I couldn't buy him back for 2k if I wanted to. The $2500 bull I loved his phenotype and paperwork he sired 9 calves and got sold for hamburger because he couldn't stay in a fence and when I penned him up in electric he went rogue. All 3 of them bulls did what they should have done but only 1 of them would be welcome back on this piece of dirt and he wasn't the most expensive or the cheapest. I wouldn't pay more than $3500 for SAV America if he was In a sale ring in front of me tomorrow but that's just because I couldn't afford to. [/QUOTE]
