[QUOTE="DOC HARRIS, post: 790707, member: 1683"] 1 Beef11- I saw part of the sale. What I saw was, IN MY OPINION, some of the worst LOOKING bulls, from a phenotype standpoint, that I have seen in many years! MANY years. I would have cut them a L-o-o-o-n-g time ago. Pharo claims that they make big profits for the customers who use his genetics, and that is the purpose of raising beef cattle. If the combined Genetics that his cattle possess can be a profit-making factor for him and his customers, why, more power to them! It takes many different traits and characteristics in a beef animal to justify using them as seedstock, and perhaps his combination of factors will justify his philosophies of beef production. Perhaps! But in my opinion it is a s-t-r-e-t-c-h to rationalize obviously poor phenotype and unacceptable skeletal structure and label it "Profitable Beef Production". If the 'bottom line' can stand up to harsh appraisal and come out on the "Black" side of the ledger - good for him! I am skeptical. What I saw was certainly NOT front pasture cattle!
