First thing is buy a son out of a famous hot AI sire, then start a post 3 months later asking about the bulls sire.
Next, do some unspeakable things to your local AI tech, feedmill guys, and breed rep so they give you the "skinny" on who is really got the good cows. Nwmo turned me on to this tip.
Then move to the corn belt where grain is cheap and plenty. That's how good cows are bred. Don't feed apple cores.
Make sure they are black
Lastly be able to rattle off pedigrees as if you have personally owned every animal and know what they were like. Even better to buy them from totally different environments. Assume every cow in the pedigree will pass on all their traits and make a awesome cattle stew with your herd.
Hope this helps!!!!
I knew this place would be more fun when you got back.
Glad you are back, my friend.
