[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1546275, member: 14585"] I know nothing of Stone Gate, so my comment is not directed at them. But, not every bull from every well managed program deserves to be a breeding bull. I've seen better bulls from small producers sell for less than what the bottom 1/3 of 'name brand' bull sales bring. Reminds me of our old local dairy auctioneer when he couldn't find something good to say about a cow in the ring he would slip in the word best by saying... "She stood next to the best cow in the barn." Always made me :) In dd5 defense (like mine) his top dollar bid wouldn't qualify as an opening bid on the good bulls at 'name brand' sales. Which is another good reason to use A.I. Like myself I'm betting dd5 is better off buying from local producers than taking bottom cut from 'name brand' farms. [/QUOTE]
