[QUOTE="WalnutCrest, post: 1287896, member: 21715"] + bajillion Get old cows who are easy going, work on your handling and management skills, learn what new calves are all about from cows who know what they're doing. Because they're older, you have a better chance to keep them on your place while you're fine tuning your fences and handling area. Etc. Etc. Etc. When it's time for a bull, I'd encourage you to find a proven older producer who's still easy going. Then, if you decide at some point these genetics aren't for you, go get what you want and introduce them to the herd, the newer (younger?) ones will learn what to do from the older ones you've had for a while (even if "for a while" is only a few months or so).
