[QUOTE="greatgerts, post: 64424, member: 181"] Shouldn't everyone want to raise the best beef animal they could if they are in the business? You would not have anything to shoot for or nothing...Just stand still. As far as the value, if you win consistently with an animal or different animals you own, people will see that and remember you, and maybe willing to pay a little more for your cattle. Showing is an EXCELLENT marketing tool, and if you have something you are proud of, why not get it out for everyone to see? Gain testing bulls on a certain breeders test, or a gain test where people will have the opportunity to know about your results is another way to get your name out. I had put my first bull on test this past summer, and he gained over 4lbs/day...And all of the other breeders that had bulls in the test got to see him, because he was the last to be picked up. (best $450 I have ever spent)! And the bull was cheap too. Bought him as a calf, and weaning for him was a trip from Missouri to Texas. Just one of those rare very good buys that come across once in a blue moon. [/QUOTE]
