[QUOTE="RD-Sam, post: 606938, member: 7927"] Doc, in the other post you made this statement, "But he portends to be a heavier bull than would be expedient in light of the current trend in seedstock selection protocols tending toward lighter weight cows (1200-1300 lbs) with an eye toward ... Hello Can you say, "PROFIT?". I took this as what it sounded like, that being you think this bull is too big and heavy, therefore not efficient, also assumed by your "PROFIT" statement. If there is anything that this bull is, it is efficient, judging by the EPD. If you study the picture you might come to the same conclusion that I came to, which is he is not all that large as far as frame size, but I could be wrong, and it wouldn't be the first time. :banana: You could also go to the website and read a little about the owner of the bull, they breed cattle that get the maximum from minimal quality forage. It all depends on who you talk to in regards to a trend too, some are still headed in the direction of bigger is better. As far as the past, you and I just have different goals, and so far my goal is working out well for me, in fact I don't think it could get a whole lot better for a beginner. :tiphat: [/QUOTE]
