[QUOTE="bball, post: 1261438, member: 23752"] I'm right there with you. It's dang hard. I really get what some of the folks are posting about average heifers sneaking up on you and quietly surprising you while some of the 'top of the heap' heifers just don't make..I have a 3 year old out of one of my best producing cows (kept her for that reason, and she was a nice looking girl as well). First calf was kinda small at weaning (lower end of the group for weight). She bred backg timely and had one of the first calfs this year. Calf just don't look like much again. If it doesn't wean at 575, she is gone. And I don't think it's going to make 575 without a small miracle. I was more patient with her than I typically am. I will be ruthless this fall. [/QUOTE]
