[QUOTE="CattleMan1920, post: 1546163, member: 37967"] My personal opinion for what it's worth. I think Stone Gate has high-quality sires. Are they the same as a direct son out of a top AI Sire, i.e. Hoover Dam or Basin Payweight?, I don't think so, but for the commercial producer, they do a good job. Their genetics lean on calving ease, but from my experience, they are heavily focused on the maternal side and energy efficiency. Charles Cannon has been a friend of ours for several decades and has ALWAYS done right by us. Our operation stopped using his bulls in 2015 because we are highly focused on producing seed stock out of A.I., and we A.I. nearly our entire herd. I'm partial to what we are producing, but I think Stone Gate has really good cattle. You don't remain in the business since the 1950's if you don't produce a consistent animal and do right by your clients. Those are my two cents. [/QUOTE]
