[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 64493, member: 13"] Like so much other stuff, it depends. Showing cattle will get your program out before the public. It's not a cheap thing to do and it takes a lot of time. If you enjoy brushing, grooming, training cattle, that's the way to go. We chose the performance route to get our program out before the public. We test our bulls at a major bull test station, side by side with the big producers in our state, and some from out of state, and we do ok. We'd always like to do better. That's not cheap either, but someone else does the feeding, weighing and measuring. I have bull buyers that aren't interested in a bull if they know his sire was a show bull. And there are Angus cattle that don't grow long hair, so they don't do well in the show ring. So it's kind of a toss up; whatever works for you. [/QUOTE]
