[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1831505, member: 40587"] Yeah I will bet, cause I would not allow it in the rules. It would defeat the whole purpose of me taking you to my $100,000 class. I think you are one of the ones popping off these last 3 years, about how "[I]Buyers will spot them. You can't fool buyers[/I]." etc. But, the sale price is immaterial to the contest, and this whole debate in the thread. I don't care if mine bring half what yours do, I will have 3 times as many cows for the $100k as you will with your British, Continental, Brahma or various and sundry crosses of these 3. They will not do very well at getting bred, having calves unassisted, raising calves, or even surviving themselves for 18 mos ( a month to get them bred, 9 mos to carry a calf and 6 mos to raise it. on pasture only). No feed, no hay, no supplements, no vaccines, wormer, or meds of any kind. No vets. No fertilizer on the pastures. You can cut the bull calves and ear tag all the calves if you want, and load them on the trailer to carry to the sale when they are 6 mos old. And that is all the handling you can do. You tell me how many of your choice of cow you will buy with your $100k, double that amount, and that's how many acres the pasture sizes will be. [/QUOTE]
