[QUOTE="CPL, post: 571403, member: 6346"] I get what you're saying. Kind of like polled breeders get worked up with a bull hetero polled. But, I bolded you last line. You said 3000 lbs bull[b]S[/b]. The problem there is it'd be one 3000 lbs pound and he would be in the back of the pedigree, grandsire or great-grandsire. Anyways, this was just kind of a hypothetical, my pockets aren't deep enough for $250 for 2 straws & a cert. However that still doesn't change my mind that just because bulls are bigger they are worthless. I think if someone did a little extra work and tried to moderate these bigger bulls and retain the traits they could be looking at some good calves. Don't get me wrong, I think the industry is headed towards a 1200 lb cow, but they doesn't mean I won't use a little bit bigger animal if I think they'll add some strengths to mine. [/QUOTE]
