[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1790310, member: 6291"] I'm not in your area but I find a lot of times I can dump calves straight off the mom in late Aug and Sept for the same they would bring, at a heavier weight 45 or 60 days later. Our big runs start in Oct and Nov, right before deer season. I really like doing that because the cows fatten up and we can stockpile grass before winter. The exception would be really wet times when grass is tall and people hold the calves until Nov Dec. If that big dump doesn't come prices will drive up usually. It might not work in your area but could be some thing to look for. Hopefully some one in your area can help. [/QUOTE]
