[QUOTE="Josher, post: 1651842, member: 37963"] Frame score of 10 + would be too much for me. Wouldn’t have problem with a 2500 lb bull though. And as far as the other comments on frame size. You don’t have to look far into nature to see that animals follow same trend. The northern colder climate supports having a bigger body to make it through tough conditions. All kinds of deer just are bigger bodied up here in Sk, Canada vs Texas. Can be 100 lb difference in whitetails. I’m not saying there is no limit. I don’t care where u live a 2000 lb cow is not gonna be making u much money. I cull my bigger cows if they are not raising a big enough calf to justify. And the small ones might raise a big calf one year then the next year they come up open, so they too get shipped. The cows I’m left with are 1300-1500. The environment dictates what size of cow I run. [/QUOTE]
